Renault Logan and Sandero

These two new items are also placed on the penultimate line of the rating due to the fact that their appearance on the Russian market has not been officially confirmed. However, in this case, it is more likely that the updated Logan and Sandero will arrive in our country.

In 2021, a restyled version of the JAC S3 will enter the Russian market.

Chery Tiggo 2 Pro

At the end of 2021, the Russian market will be replenished with the new Chery Tiggo 2 Pro, which has gone through a planned restyling. The crossover, like the JAC S3, has acquired a redesigned body with narrow head optics, large cutouts in the front bumper and an enlarged grille. A 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine is available with the crossover, delivering up to 116 hp. power and combined with the variator.

According to the published OTTS, the new product will be available in Russia with two motors.

The role of the base unit for the Tiggo 4 Pro will be played by the former 1.5-liter "naturally-aspirated" engine, developing up to 113 hp. power. Versions equipped with a supercharged engine of the same volume will be slightly more expensive. This unit already produces 147 hp.

Volkswagen polo

Current VW Polo

At the end of 2021, the restyled Polo, which has not yet been officially presented, may go on sale in the Russian market. This version of the liftback is distinguished by a deeply redesigned body, which is made rather in the style of the latest Skoda models. The characteristics of this modification of the Polo have not yet been announced.

Changan Uni-T

The newest crossover Changan Uni-T cannot be called a cheap novelty. In China, this crossover is offered at a price of 1.24 million rubles. However, this model was supposed to appear in the ranking of the cheapest new products in Russia.

The fact is that the Uni-T is not only distinguished by a unique body made in a sporty style. This crossover stands out with one of the best-in-class avionics. In particular, in terms of the level of equipment, this model may well compete with the Volkswagen Tiguan. At the same time, the Uni-T salon is made in a more premium style, with an abundance of leather and metal parts.

Under the hood of the Chinese novelty, a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine is installed, which produces up to 180 hp. power. Together with it comes a 7-speed robotic gearbox with two clutches. In addition, the Uni-T has a sensor that follows your gaze and automatically adjusts the brightness of the 10.25-inch digital panel accordingly.

Lada Niva Travel

New Niva Travel

The new Niva Travel received mixed responses. After restyling, the car began to look more modern, and thanks to the special configuration of the front end of the body, it began to resemble the last Toyota Rav4. Technically, however, Niva Travel has not changed. Under the hood, the same 80-horsepower "atmospheric" engine with 1.7 liters is installed, combined with a 5-speed "mechanics" and permanent all-wheel drive. According to preliminary information, the changes did not affect the list of onboard equipment, as a result of which the prices for Niva Travel should not change significantly. Now the SUV costs 738 thousand rubles.

Renault Duster

Perhaps the most anticipated novelty of the Russian market among budget cars. Renault Duster changed generations for the first time in a long time, which brought with it quite large-scale changes in the body and interior. But more importantly, the French crossover has retained the off-road capabilities that distinguished its predecessor. In addition, a 1.33-liter turbo engine is now likely to be installed under the hood of the car, which produces up to 150 hp. power and is combined with the variator. This unit has previously appeared on Arkana and Kaptur.
