Owner feedback and review of the exterior

The external appearance of the modification of M2 is very contradictory.On the one hand, the design of the jeep is excessively square and even clumsy. On the other hand, the car has a confident style and is literally saturated with brutality. The reason for this is the similarity of the car with the legendary "Mercedes Gelendwagen", better known as the "cube". The same situation is observed in the Chinese "Hover": straight angular lines of the body, characteristic skirts and a large windshield.

Interior of the new "Great Wave Hover"

Reviews of owners note that the car's interiorquite spacious. Moreover, this trend is observed not only in the front, but also in the rear, where 3 adults are comfortably accommodated. The quality of the finish can not be called a standard, but still the Great Wave Hover -2013 does not have any technical defects in the form of gaps and cracks. The only thing for which car owners scold the novelty is for too soft upholstery of doors and seats, which, if used for a long time (1.5-2 years), can simply lose its original appearance. Therefore, the salon of "Chinese" should be used very carefully.

Technical characteristics of the crossover "Great Vol Hover"

The feedback from the owners suggests thata variety of engines in Russia should not be counted. Only one gasoline unit with a capacity of 105 horsepower and a working capacity of 1497 cubic centimeters will be produced on our market. It will enter both the base and the luxury version of the crossover "Great Wave Hover". The characteristics of this engine allow you to accelerate the car from 0 to hundreds of miles in 16 seconds. Yes, the dynamics do not shine here. And how is the situation with fuel consumption? In terms of fuel consumption a novelty too economical too you will not name: in the city the car spends up to 10 liters of gasoline, on a line this indicator decreases to a mark in 6 liters. The only advantages of this power unit are the possibility of consumption of 92-th gasoline. As you can see, the new "Great Vol Hover" characteristics of the engine line do not really meet the modern requirements of the world market. Perhaps it happened because of the low cost of an SUV? Let's figure it out.
