Mazda6 MPS against the Volvo S60 2.5T AWD
Sporty sedan, the evil turbocharged engine and all wheel drive - this is not a sign of class, but rather a diagnosis. A person who acquires a car (provided it was driving «Impreza» or «Evolyushn»?), Pathologically bound to love the speed and certainly knows what the real taste of the adrenaline. Therefore the place and the Carboniferous, and a huge antikrylo, and at least 18 inch Low Profile racing rubber. Without these «amplifiers taste» turbo cocktail like a child shipuchku.
Now take the logic to find. In stock: big power and a full drive. But! All this - in the body nemalenkogo family sedan, with a shamefaced sleeky false weight, without a brutal sport suspension and all the associated carbon. Here are two examples: a new (for Russian market) Mazda6 MPS and the veteran Volvo S60 2.5T AWD.
Remember about relatives.
Since both marks in part by Ford, it can be assumed that the Mazda, and Volvo share one platform - the same, such as the Mondeo. But it is not. S60 has been designed in the late 90's and has more in common with other vehicles of Go"teborg - with the S80 AWD and XC70. Creation of engineers from Hiroshima unification also spared. In contrast, the Japanese were asked to develop the ideas laid out by themselves even in the luxurious «mazdovskom» Brand Xedox. But now the main thing - no family ties.
Swedes position as the S60 sport sedan. What it should arouse passion than solid cast discs are difficult to understand, especially if you put a car together, for example, with the 159 th Alfa Romeo. Still, Volvo - this machine is secured family man who has money «cashier in», knowing that it was most secure.
Not inconsistent with this version of the image, even with full control, which is combined with a turbocharged 210-strong motor. For our distance, snowy winters and humane prices for gasoline - is the optimum combination. Nevertheless, take into account the low front spoiler mounted on the S60 AWD, and some semblance of antikryla on the trunk and the condition is its sports sedans.
Mazda6 MPS on their sisters, "citizens" is stronger. Its even decline in the feminine language is not rotated. This - «Mazda»! Nosy Moor with bad oblique screw up one's eyes and plump lips grille. Modification of MPS and the rear is easy to distinguish from ordinary Mazda6 - between the two caps on the muffler body skirt otformovano something like racing diffuser (decoration, of course).
For its class, both big enough car. Cargo space - more than 420 liters. Saloon Mazda6 MPS has a little bit, but the Swedish car in the rear row of seats is less than the longitudinal axis. On equipped too, there is no special advantage - even in the basic configuration, it is unlikely that they have someone interested. So all decide the price and variety of options (at the Volvo, it is necessary to notice, choice pobogache).
Neither the Mazda6 MPS, or AWD in the Volvo S60 does not fall under the definition of a permanent (full time). A Swedish sedan torque to the rear wheels (from 5 to 50%) passed through the multi Haldex clutch slip at the front wheels. «Japanese» designed complex.
In a mechanical rear axle differential self and electromagnetic friction clutch that distributes the time, subject to the system of Active Torque Split AWD. Electronics takes into account the steering angle and yaw degree of car lateral acceleration and the thrust of the engine and automatically switch to the «standard» of dosing time of the rear wheels on the «sport» or the «winter».
Family idyll.
Japanese car, as a more modern, technically superior to the Swedish development. This engine with advanced direct injection system, and wheel drive, which is fully controlled by electronics. In the pros MPS before the usual modification should burn the body, stiffness of which is increased one and a half times, and suspension - components running «the fastest Mazda» are designed for high dynamic loads. Perhaps, therefore, on the move «Japanese» appears firmly collected the machine, which is ready to jerk without the fear of strangers sticks.
Volvo to move a little bit different. Figuratively speaking, this car can get on the road rather than deal with it, although just from the S60 AWD subconsciously waiting for some tank habits (and, incidentally, quite in vain - it is 200 kilos lighter).
The level of acoustic and vibrokomforta in the Mazda6 is comparable with other affordable Car Class D. The noise from the wheels and engine rumble promoted a more visible than, for example, the Audi A4 or even in the Opel Vectra. In this sense, looks more attractive Volvo. It is less than shaking, and all the noise - as the motor, and aerodynamic - unobtrusive. Before «leksusovskogo» comfort S60, may not reach, but with the «liner», as the Subaru Legacy, can compete on an equal footing.
Shved disappointing side mirrors. Perhaps they have made such kutsymi to teach buyers to good system BLIS (signaling the appearance of objects in the dead zones), but on our machine it is or is not working, or did not have. In the Mazda6 MPS mirrors are better protected from dirt and less distorted.
But in the S60 AWD is easier to achieve the desired climate. Effective ventilation is obtained without the unpleasant draft. And the seat is warming up quickly, though, even at the maximum temperature does not çŕřęŕëčâŕĺň (the sin heated seats Mazda6 MPS).
In the asset of two vehicles have developed a system of airbags, and electronic «represser». And for the less powerful Swedish sedan last, in our view, a particularly important - better to book a car is not a simple antiprobuksovkoy, but with an advanced system of maintaining exchange rate stability of DSTC. So why ...
The basis for the 260-strong «Quartet» Mazda6 MPS became atmospheric MZR 2,3 with variable valve mechanism for a smooth intake and balansirnymi shafts. He was reinforced crankcase and crankshaft, a turbine, and direct injection DISI. Unlike competitors' minders Mazda use the direct fuel into the cylinders not save gasoline (and, incidentally, marks 98), and to further increase the torque.
A Five Volvo engine and runs on conventional gasoline quality. Due to the low pressure turbine, it develops 210 forces, and gives almost the maximum time already from 1500 rpm! The system of variable valve intake and output of fuel and improves the economic performance and clean exhaust.
The reaction of loved ones.
If you disable the electronic controls Mazda6 MPS, nothing terrible will happen - the machine is clear and predictable reactions. «Japanese» with a savage determination, even sliding all the wheels on a mixed inhomogeneous surface, rushes back to where the steering wheel. Emerging drifts are not afraid. Braking in line with expectations. As «gun» launch (let passengers too Feel the taste of adrenaline) should be prepared only to a small slip sideways and not retard the moment of the gearshift. The dynamics of the car on dry pavement, directly say, not for the faint-hearted. And not only at lower speeds.
Full power Volvo accelerate «floor» not so wildly, «machine» conceal jerk, but on a slippery road, he almost lost in accelerating, but during heavy braking, even more stable. However, with disabled «assistants» S60 AWD is turning into a car with surprises. Turn it may be no less than fast, but does not tolerate excess speed at the inlet and the sharp turns of the steering wheel.
Here's how everything happens: if the sensors record the demolition front, they are complete coupling, responsible for connecting the rear wheels, but when the latest draft is passed, it is not the place - is only bringing the rear of the car. Automatic transmission prevents feel like sliding depends on the «gas» - account for active and with utmost caution the steering. But this extreme - not the most pleasant. If we talk about who tickles your nerves properly, so this Mazda6 MPS.
Index - a disguise.
Interior Mazda6 MPS is not forced to choose either flattering epithets or strong language. The instrument panel of large digitized, the appointment of government guessed easily, ergonomics is a compromise - those who created the room, clearly wanted to please and the weak, and grew, and thick. The pedals are up in the air above the more desirable.
Outwardly, not outstanding chairs have a big swing adjustments. Trehspitsevy wheel velikovat and no tides in the area enough, but too configured in a wide range and it stick buttons audio Bose. Nice detail - korotkohodnaya clear in the backdrop six «mechanics». She, like the metal lining on the pedal, hints at the outstanding car. But everything else is 100 percent screening of «Mazda» Civil - gray, nemarkuyu, practical.
It is a pity that the designers did not take the studio to make more sports. With its dynamic qualities of this machine is able angry owners wheel Audi A4 3,2 Quattro and BMW 330iX, but the interior of MPS exact cause of their attack sympathy laugh. And for the color display, multimedia systems pity: of «staffing», we put only the compartment for melochevki.
Everything is under control. Before the era of S-series cars Volvo designers in the interior of their cars, priority given to ergonomics, and since the model S40 began to pay special attention and aesthetics. But what you see here is, believe me, the sum of the two "E".
And so, with a capital letter (but then all of a sudden you have a specious analogy with furniture from «IKEA»). Two leather interior S60 AWD in the performance of «premium» back to the exemplary quality and pleasant, even at the smell. Interior nesovremenen? But, it is to imagine even greater confidence. By foot site and claims there is no steering column. The dashboard and center console is fully thought out. Each button, the arrow icon under the control of the driver.
Setting the climate system - it does not test for IQ, as in some cars, but rather the other way around, checking for moron (or yourself, or you, we did not have in mind). And a sound system is operated without zamorochek, although in its class is very advanced (high capacity, equipped with a Dolby-processor). Swedes pierced only with buttons to adjust the mirrors - in the dark to find them difficult.
Now take the logic to find. In stock: big power and a full drive. But!
