The review of the car UAZ-220694

In the model series of the Ulyanovsk plant there are many interesting and popular models. One such is UAZ-220694. Technical specifications and design description - this is what will be discussed in this article.

general information

The machine weighs only 2800 kg. Its sales started in 2006. The cost at that time was about 250 thousand rubles.

This car is almost not subject to time. Until now, this car is in demand, it can be found on the streets of the capital of an immense homeland, like the usual "Lada". This demand is justified by excellent traffic and a small price. UAZ-220694 is a typical minibus, the basic model for many less successful modifications. It works with an injection-type engine. Moreover, the manufacturer positions the model as commercial.

A bit of history

The production was opened in 1958. Then the model 450 left the assembly line, which opened the story of the described "loaf". Four years later, the manufacturer started production of all-wheel drive cars, changing their index to 451. Due to easy repair, simple construction and convenient driving, these cars quickly began to gain popularity. Next, the manufacturer engaged in the release of medical and cargo-and-passenger modifications, which were immediately delivered to the armed forces of the country. Because of the special law, the machines had to be constantly improved. Therefore, in the 70s, the chassis, engine and design were changed.

In 1974, the multimillion model - UAZ-452 - came off the assembly line. Even then, domestic consumers understood that foreign models are much more comfortable, pleasant, better, but in the USSR there was no car that would become an analogue of the produced model for patrolling.

After the collapse of the Union, the Russian market massively received various models, both the cheapest and the most expensive. But even with such a competition produced "loaves" in popularity are not diminished.

In 1999, the well-known "Farmer" model was put into production. It differed in that it accommodated up to 5 people, and its side platform was made of metal. At the moment, it and UAZ-220694 are one of the most popular models.

Description

Now the company produces eight different models of "loaf". Among them are a van, several cargo-and-passenger, a sanitary vehicle and, of course, a minibus, which is the subject of this article.

The described machine, according to the manufacturer, is able to easily transfer up to 1 ton of cargo. But if you look at the truth in the face, few Russian drivers listen to such restrictions. Therefore, we can safely say that the car will withstand about 1.5 tons of cargo off-road.

On the test drive UAZ "loaf" shows itself perfectly. What is it? The machine works with a 4-stroke engine. Its power is 99 horsepower, the volume of fuel is about 3 liters, and the injection system is also built in. This gasoline unit does not stand out against the background of American and other analogs, but on the whole it shows itself well.

Modernization

For many years, no matter how many works and modernization, the appearance of the UAZ-220694 car hardly changed. Even over time, the car did not acquire comfort, although the cabin was greatly improved. Compared with the original version in the cabin became much more comfortable. It should be noted that with prolonged driving, the back from the seats does not get tired and does not hurt. The cabin is covered with dermatome. The manufacturer refused to use metal.

The design of the UAZ-220694 also remained practically unchanged. Owners like that the motor is still located inside, so it does not frighten any bad weather. The driver's cabin is not separated from the passengers until now. The minimum capacity is 5 people, but the number of seats can vary, this should be taken into account.
