The roar of rocket

"The Japanese crossed the line between fictional mechanisms that they represent in their fiction cartoons, and reality" - I thought, first saw the new Civic-hatchback. It is difficult to recall at least one model that stood out as a stream of cars. The impression that the concept car was sent into production, and he has traveled the streets of Moscow. Still haunt the Japanese brothers thought of galaxies, robots, parsecs, blaster yes Cheburashka. They feel themselves closer to the space of all the future of the planet and are willing to literally tomorrow to host a visiting furry alien. In the dreams of the eyes in a half-face and teenage girls dressed as cabin boy on each corner of defending the validity of the Japanese and did not see how to create a space fighter combat alien beings Alpha, which will of fate forced to live in a Comedy Series 80-ies and pretend that he tries to eat cat on the planet. View from storonyPo apparently not only me, this machine has caused such associations. Fellow journalists who are fortunate enough to ride before I did this "space launch" probably immediately forgot about the fact that there are laws of physics (gravity, friction, air resistance), causing the machine to perform a fantastic movement. I must say that the car is really capable of many things, but only within the framework of reality. As a result, the tested car whenever needed in the banal earthly as preventive and fairly serious repairs. What you could not guess when it's my turn to test pushed back with alarming regularity. Motorist, remember, got into the new Civic - wake up, five-fingered hand otmahnis of delusions of alien, think of a sandwich with "Viola" for breakfast, behold the faces of men in the media transport earth. Now you're a man, and Civic - a car that will not be able to pass on the third cosmic velocity and bend space, go through traffic jams. Do you think the main thing is over? No. At this point everything is just beginning. We leave at Civic 5d on the road and realize that truth really is somewhere nearby. Here they are newcomers, learn native vehicle stopped and looked at him eagerly, wanting to possess it. Each stop at a traffic light is a risk of losing the car, some sullen pedestrians, forgetting that at the moment they proudly, feeling their rights and the supremacy of the car, backed up by burning at the traffic lights green silhouette of a fellow countryman, crossed the road, look at the car as something What they did not expect to see on Earth. The new Honda Civic hatchback in the back, probably created to overturn the generally accepted standards in the design of new solutions. The first thing that catches your eye - the number of optics mounted on the car. The whole front end and all of its "feed" - a solid transparent plastic, under which, as in two huge block headlights, hid headlight head light, rear lights, turn signals, brake lights and reflectors (front - white mirror, taking up space lattice radiator, rear - red). The triangular silencers sockets create symmetry fog lamps of the same shape, but built into the front bumper. Well, is this normal earthling would come up with? Certainly the Japanese have found a couple of UFOs and without fear of lawsuits for plagiarism in design, used alien solutions. At first glance, it seems three-door Civic 5D version, as the rear doors are almost merge with the wings, and handles similar to the Alfa-Romeo 156 hidden in the base of the window frame. Despite the fact that the rear doors are noticeably smaller than the front, they do not impede the process of embarking and disembarking passengers. The fact that the designers made sure that the door opened almost 90 degrees to the side of the car. Requires a separate description of the tailgate. Her glass is divided into two parts, spoiler. This spoiler, on the one hand, gives the car a sporty style, and perhaps even improving the aerodynamic characteristics of it, but on the other hand, changes the driver about what he sees in the mirror: image split in two, and appeared at the junction of the dead zone (pretty much) - it's spoiler. In the first minutes of Management "Civic" this "feature" horribly annoying, it seems that now someone has taken and decided to contribute to the work of extraterrestrials. But as soon as it got dark, I discovered that this spoiler - even very useful thing. Perhaps even the designer of the new Honda did not think the subject of the exterior perfectly obscures the lights going behind the machine, and does not make you blind, but just does not dazzle in the mirror is on the short distance from where it is most pundits love to do, " sitting down "on the rear bumper. Let's go back to the door, which is one of the strengths of the Civic. They provide excellent sound insulation, closed and open, like the refrigerator door, and literally, in contrast to the classical variant, when the castle, opening, and pushes the door yet. When you open the door of the new Civic, it must be to push (pull) to be "otlipla" from the doorway. Such a leak is encouraging that the car will safely keep the heat in the winter frost. He sat down and poehalOchevidno that Japanese scientists have managed to get inside the captured UFOs. Despite the fact that the interior of the Honda Civic 5D and inferior to the exterior, it does not disappoint, and continues to amaze. Thus, a futuristic space theme continues here dashboard layout of the original Dual Zone. In fact, this arrangement can be called the Trial Zone, because of the car 3 information panel: speedometer, tachometer, etc. and audioklimatsistema. Instead of making the speedometer indicator as a projection on the windshield, as some automakers, the Japanese decided to separate from the general speedo dash and bring it under the windshield base. Thus, the movement of large numbers speedometer are always in sight, and the rest on a plan of producers, with less important information can be found in the usual location - directly behind the steering wheel rim. There and tachometer, which allows push your e-arrow up to 6.5 thousand rpm, and a small screen on-board computer gives information about the fuel consumption and so on, the engine thermometer, etc. There is nothing unusual in the device itself is not, but how they look! At night, missing only the sidereal-lunar landscape outside the window, and the rest - a real spaceship. During the day all this beauty is not as spectacular, but if more and move to the beam, so the car just thinking that it was night and doing readings quite dull and unreadable, so as not to distract the driver from the "dark" road. Distracted by the same governing Civic 5D, does not want. If a person likes to drive, steering feel, suspension, traction, tear the motor and gearbox, this car is ready to satisfy even the most experienced. New (the eighth) Civic continues to honor the glorious history of their ancestors. Let me remind you that this Civic as an inexpensive, easy and very nimble tyuninguemaya machine is considered the founder of the street races in the presentation, which exists today. Basic 1,8 i-VTEC with 140 horses to disperse hundreds of Civic in 8.9 sec., And the engine is so tyagovity that the dynamics of dispersal of the extra 2-3 people in the cabin is virtually unaffected. Claimed maximum of 205 km / h vehicle honestly and easily work out. Honda designers have achieved from the engine and muffler interesting effect: when the machine is running at low speeds (up to 3 thousand), the engine is absolutely silent, but the tachometer is close to the figure of four thousand, as the car cut through sports "voice", though normal muffler turned into a "forward flow". When you read tehdannye vehicle, always refer to the indicated fuel consumption per 100 km skeptical. While some companies promise that the car is in city mode "eat" less than 10 liters, we have become used safely add to this figure 3-4 liters. Honda engineers have not deceived: for dynamic driving Civic consumes about 10 liters at 8.4 liters of medium claimed. The theory that an alien prototype Civic was fighting, confirms the practice: the passengers in the car feel superfluous. If you are not driving and not busy maneuvering between the ships of the enemy, you can only endure bumps and knocks "meteorites", holding back nausea. The fact that the sports suspension settings, coupled with the wheels of the 18th range, low-profile rubber upholstered literally, makes even the familiar, previously seemed relatively smooth road to the shaker. In addition, the wheel caught a rut with confidence, sometimes tough throwing the car from side to side. It gives a special "fun" for passengers and the driver has to squeeze harder on the fingers "stick." Practicality and komfortLiderom from these two new Civic is clearly not name. He was not distinguished by a special spaciousness, and the passengers in it uncomfortable. But on the principle "all for the driver" car can be called one of the best - at the height of ergonomics. All control is intuitive and accessible. No need to go somewhere to adjust cabin temperature or adjust the radio - all at your fingertips. But despite a lot of modern technology, the driver is still a bit cheated. Sitting down in a spaceship, does not expect that the adjustable driver's seat the entire manual. Even the lift seat is made on the basis of the jack. Leaves a good impression upholstery-like touch to the artificial suede. It is not slippery and not easily soiled, and, hopefully, in contrast to the natural material lacks the ability to wipe to a shine. Emphasizing the sporty, Honda designers have tried to enrich the interior of an abundance of chrome and aluminum, however, if from afar chrome plastic looks spectacular, on closer examination it does not give the car reliability. But aluminum pedals with blue backlight looks really cool - not too lazy to Honda and borrowed a further decision of the UFOs. In general, salon turned piece, created in the same style. Despite the mileage more than 10 thousand km and agony that went through the test specimen, the salon has kept its stronghold of articulation joints - he rattles or creaks, and boasts good sound insulation. DiagnozZa his $ 25200 a 6-speed gearbox and $ 26,200 with a 6-speed automatic transmission vehicle offers its owner a lot of modern sports-style, to feel pleasure in the center of attention and pleasure to manage this "lighter". But for the money, you can choose a more comfortable car (though more mundane), and not only in the Golf-class, but also in the class D. If you think that it is not old for that dye in his beard grow and platinum-ispanelku, wear pants with twenty pockets and a belt at the groin, if the level is more important to you pontov level of comfort (to attract attention of others is more important than the convenience of its passengers) If you're ready every time they get behind the wheel, take a jacket or coat that does not interfere with the movements, the new Civic is worth it to spend money on it. Classmates Honda CivicHonda positions Civic 5D as a rival popular European hatchback Golf class, for example, Mazda3 ($ 22,100 for the hatchback with a 2-liter engine) and the Opel Astra ($ 20,040 for the hatchback with a 1.8 liter engine).
