Sale of Datsun mi-DO in the showroom "Central"

A new Japanese car is not affordable? No matter how! Buy new datsun mi-DO at an authorized dealer will be able to everyone if you get an interest-free installment plan or a car loan on loyal terms, as well as resort to the Trade-in system, a recycling program, promotions and discounts.

The five-door hatchback “mi-DO”, built on the basis of the “second” Lada Kalina, was officially presented to the public for the first time at the end of August 2014 at the international auto show in Moscow.

A little less than six months later (at the beginning of February 2015) official dealers brands "Datsun" in Russia began to accept pre-orders for this car, although by the middle of the same month he "alive" showed up "on the shelves" of car dealerships.

The Datsun mi-DO hatchback is endowed with a modern and attractive appearance, however, “family ties with Kalina” are immediately caught in his appearance.

The front part of the five-door is made in the "family" style of the revived brand - this is evidenced by the hexagonal grille with a honeycomb protective mesh and chrome lining.

Expressive head optics with lenses give the front of the Datsun compact hatchback a certain amount of aggression, and a neat bumper (in top versions with foglights) and stampings on the hood successfully complete the “exposure”.

The silhouette of a “like Japanese” hatchback is practically no different from the “Kalinovsky” one: a compact hood, as if “chopped off” feed, a significant area of ​​​​side glazing and 15-inch wheel disks(in the basic version - 14-inch "stamps").

The rear of the car is crowned with a neat tailgate, stylish shades parking lights with transparent windows and a small bumper with space for a license plate.

Body length Datsun mi-DO is 3950 mm, width - 1700 mm, height - 1500 mm. Very modest wheelbase affects the stock of internal space and has 2476 mm, but the indicators ground clearance impressive - the clearance is 174 mm.

In running order, the hatchback weighs 1125 kg, and its full mass slightly exceeds 1.5 tons.

The interior of the Datsun mi-DO hatchback is no different from interior decoration sedan "on-DO" - utterly unpretentious "wells" of instruments and a monochrome display of a trip computer between them are well read under any conditions. The steering wheel with three wide spokes and the brand's emblem is accentuated with silver metal-effect inserts.

The wave-shaped front panel smoothly flows into the massive center console, which, depending on the level of equipment, can be completely different (only the ventilation deflectors remain unchanged). In the most affordable versions, the dashboard is crowned with plugs (in the place where the audio system should be) and three “twists” of a conventional stove, and in more expensive ones, a 2DIN audio system with a small monochrome display or a multimedia complex with a 7-inch touch screen, as well as a control panel "climate".

Inside the five-door mi-DO, frankly budget-friendly finishing materials are used - hard plastics and fabric in the seat upholstery. In addition to this, there are assembly roughness, and the dark interior looks somewhat gloomy, and even silver inserts do not add nobility to it.

The front seats with an almost flat profile do not fix the body well in corners, but they differ in a good level of comfort. But the adjustment ranges cannot be called redundant, and there are not so many places - tall riders will obviously feel discomfort.

As already noted, due to the modest wheelbase, the second row of seats offers a minimum of space, and if the first row is moved as far back as possible, then it practically does not remain in the gallery at all. The margin of space in width is enough for only two adult passengers, the third will be cramped in the shoulders, and the protruding transmission tunnel does not add convenience.

The luggage compartment of the "mi-DO" (volume 260 liters) in the standard position has a high threshold and protruding superstructures wheel arches, so it is not suitable for the transportation of bulky goods. Back rear seat folds separately (60:40), resulting in additional luggage space, but does not leave a flat floor. Regardless of the modification, under the raised floor there is a place for a full-fledged "reserve".

The five-door hatchback Datsun mi-DO is offered with two gasoline atmospheric "fours" with distributed fuel injection, which are well known from the "on-DO" and Lada brand models.

• The first option is an eight-valve unit VAZ-11186 with a working volume of 1.6 liters (1596 cubic centimeters), the maximum potential of which is 87 Horse power at 5100 rpm and 140 Nm of torque at 3800 rpm.
• The second is a 1.6-liter VAZ-21127 engine with a 16-valve DOHC timing structure, which produces 106 hp. at 5800 rpm and 148 Nm of ultimate impact at 4000 rpm.

"VAZ" engines meet Euro-4 environmental standards, and are equipped with "mechanics" in five steps or a 4-speed "automatic" Jatco.

From 0 to 100 km / h, the hatchback accelerates in 10.5-14.2 seconds, and its maximum capabilities do not exceed 161-181 km / h.

The passport fuel consumption of a five-door is 6.7-7.7 liters for every "hundred" kilometers in mixed conditions.

The Datsun mi-DO is based on the 2nd generation front-wheel drive “trolley” from Kalina, but on the “Japanese” it received an upgraded suspension tuned by Renault and Nissan specialists. The front wheels are attached to the body by means of classic McPherson struts, the rear wheels - by a semi-independent scheme with a transmission beam. In addition to this, the car is equipped with gas-filled shock absorbers.

All modifications of the five-door hatchback rely on electric power steering, as well as front disc and rear drum brakes (with ABS and EBD, and in expensive versions also with BAS).

On the Russian market, the 2017 Datsun mi-DO is available in two trim levels - "Trust" and "Dream":

• The most “empty” version will cost 515,000 rubles (any version with automatic transmission is 50 thousand more expensive). For this money you get a hatchback with: electric power steering, trip computer, heated front seats, two electric windows, side mirrors with electric adjustment and heating, two airbags in front and ABS systems+ EBD ... For performance with climate control, you will have to pay a minimum of 539,000 rubles, if also with “regular music” - 549,000 rubles, and with a 106-horsepower engine - 564,000 rubles.
• The "top" Datsun mi-DO is offered at a price of 573,000 rubles and is equipped with: alloy wheels 15-inch dimension, fog lights, rain and light sensors, electronic stabilization system and height adjustment of the driver's seat. Additionally, for the Dream version, you can order: side airbags, a multimedia system with a 7-inch screen, a heated windshield, rear parking sensors and a navigation system, but for such a hatchback you will have to pay from 602,000 rubles.

Designed specifically for Russian market. And at the Moscow Motor Show in 2014, the premiere of a hatchback based on it, which was called mi-DO, took place.

As in the case of the sedan, the basis of the new Datsun mi-DO 2019 (photo and price) was the upgraded platform from the car. But if outwardly the four-door is more reminiscent of Grant, standing out with an impressive trunk, then the five-door received a body like that of the Kalina hatchback.

Options and prices Datsun mi-DO 2019

MT5 - 5-speed manual, AT4 - 4-speed automatic

In front, the 2019 Datsun MiDo received a proprietary hexagonal grille, which the company calls the “D-cut grill”, but the shape of the head optics is somewhat different from those installed on the sedan. And behind the car can be distinguished from Kalina by modified lights and a slightly retouched trunk lid.

Compared with the sedan, the overall length of the Datsun mi-DO was reduced from 4,337 to 3,950 millimeters, while the width (1,700), height (1,500) and wheelbase (2,476) remained the same.

The interior design of the hatchback copies the four-door, and under the hood there is the same 1.6-liter eight-valve gasoline engine 87 hp, combined with a five-speed mechanical box gears. But as an option, a Jatco quad-band machine was immediately available, which was not originally offered on-DO.

In the autumn of the seventeenth year, the new Datsun Mi Do acquired a 106-horsepower version of the 1.6 engine (surcharge for it 15,000 rubles). At first, you can buy a hatchback with such an engine only in conjunction with a manual transmission, but later they promise to start equipping it and automatic transmission.

Taking orders for new Datsun mi-DO in Russia started on February 4, 2015, today the price range for a five-door varies from 536,000 to 673,000 rubles. Thus, the basic version turned out to be 73,400 rubles. more expensive than Kalina. But the mi-DO equipment is richer - already in the initial version there is power steering, front airbags, side mirrors with electric drive and heating, trip computer and heated front seats.

For a surcharge, climate control and a multimedia system with a USB port, an SD card slot, Bluetooth and four speakers are offered. The top version of the Datsun mi-DO 2019 provides for fog lights, light and rain sensors, power windows for all doors, an audio system and 15-inch alloy wheels.

Datsun mi-Do- This hatchback entered the market a little later than its fellow sedan. Nevertheless, it seems that he is not at all going to concede to the latter in popularity, actively conquering the hearts of car dealership customers. It is immediately clear that the car is aimed at young people - and the body is more suitable here, and its color scheme, in which there is a branded bright orange color scheme, should attract just such buyers. No wonder he is predicted to have a third of all sales in Russia!

The signature mi-Do shade definitely suits him!

Of course, the Datsun brand cannot boast of excessive prestige, but still the words about buying a “Japanese-made car” sound solid, even if for this you have to be a little cunning. After all, Datsun mi-Do is just a turned Lada Kalina, although, recognizing this, any hatchback owner immediately begins to list the differences between his iron horse and the domestic one.

If you don’t know that Lada Kalina became the prototype for mi-Do, then the Japanese hatchback can be mistaken for an original model.

The Japanese are also diligently creating a loud image of models, hoping not only for sales in Russia, but also for the export of cars to neighboring countries. However, in order to really justify the high bar taken, the Asians will have to try, not only in terms of creating a car, but also in terms of dealer service, which should be noticeably better than VAZ.

In an effort to find out the attitude of ordinary car owners to the hatchback, the journalists conducted a kind of survey, the results of which can be seen in this video:

Appearance Datsun Mi-Do

There is no doubt about the relationship with Kalina, and some design solutions made, as they say, "on the contrary." Here, and the front of this is the first confirmation. If it has a thin grille and a powerful air intake, then the opposite is true - a small air intake and a massive grille with a large emblem.

Differences with Kalina are visible, as they say, to the naked eye. However, the similarities are also clear.

And the lid of the mi-Do is even, while the Lada has a license plate on it, the place of which is on the Datsun rear bumper. Everything else is very similar - the hood, doors, bumpers, fenders, optics, rear, etc. Of course, the style is a little different, but the outline is the same. Doors at mi-Do are unpretentious, without unnecessary stampings, rear lights elongated, the roof is a little littered back, etc.

During the motor show in Moscow in 2014, this hatchback was presented at the stand, and it was in the corporate color scheme. He came to the attention of journalist Sergei Znaemsky:

Datsun mi-Do engine

If we state dry technical data, then the 8-valve is clearly not striking in power. 87 l. sec., available only in the upper range (at 5,100 rpm), as well as 140 Nm of torque at 3,800 rpm - all this is already familiar from Grant. The engine is oriented to Euro-4 standards, and the hatchback only needs to be filled with 95th gasoline.

The motor of the Datsun model has no alternative, but it is better than you expect.

But its dynamics will largely depend on the type of gearbox, as well as appetite. So, on the "handle" acceleration takes 12 seconds, and with AT you will have to be patient for 14.3 seconds. it “passes” over the top ten, although in the passport data the indicators of a liter are 2-3 less.

Despite the fact that the engine is well-known, an overview of its motor is presented in this story:

Transmission

The 5-speed manual has an alternative in the face of a 4-band “automatic” from Jatco.

Oddly enough, but it was the “mechanics” that turned out to be the weak link.

It is this transmission that distinguishes mi-Do from a sedan, where buyers are forced to be content with only a “handle”. However, there are no technical revelations here.

The high-quality work of the automatic transmission allows you to forget that the “automatic” is only a 4-band.

Suspension Datsun mi-do

Here, too, everything is traditional - there are McPherson type struts in front, and a torsion beam is placed at the back. The brakes are disc front and drum brakes at the rear. Technically, the car also boasts an electric power steering wheel.

The usual torsion beam - there is nothing to surprise Datsun.

Driving sensations

But at the level of emotions, the situation with the motor is much more rosy. It is unexpectedly frisky and assertive - it starts quite cheerfully and smoothly spins up to the limiter. It is not surprising that the Japanese did not change anything in it, except for calibration to Idling. But there is also a minus - the engine is quite noisy. The Asians tried to solve the problem by improving the soundproofing layer, but did not succeed too much, although the effect, in comparison with Kalina, is still noticeable.

Also, both paparazzi and drivers note that the speed in a hatchback is perceived differently from reality - when accelerating to 80 km / h, it seems that the car is already rushing to the limit.

The feeling of speed in mi-Do is quite peculiar.

With gearboxes, things are a little more complicated. Contrary to expectations, it is the “mechanics” that let mi-Do down. And this despite all the Nissan press releases, which repeatedly emphasized that cable drive The box guarantees a lot of advantages - here is a clear gear shift, and a low noise level, and reduced vibration. But in reality, everything is far from being so optimistic - the speeds are turned on “not very”, and sometimes the rear one has to be hammered into the groove. Yes, and there are problems with noise - from time to time the box starts to howl, and even the driver can lose his mood from this dreary symphony. Saves only a well-tuned clutch.

The clarity of the gears in mi-Do definitely needs improvement.

But the “automatic” completely rehabilitates mi-do! No wonder they ask for 40,000 rubles for it. - he fulfills them 100%. The automatic transmission juggles gears clearly and quickly, and as a nice bonus for the driver, there are additional modes designed to keep low gears. And this is a bold “+” for a hatchback! When driving uphill, this function is simply irreplaceable.

Additional modes are a great help when driving uphill.

The main thing is to first count 3 clicks from "Parking" to "Drive" so as not to jump over it. As a nice bonus, there is also an overdrive activation key, which will make it possible to save a couple of liters of fuel at cruising speeds.

Mode D is third from the top - this is important to remember.

With suspension, everything is dual. On the one hand, it is this part of mi-Do that clearly proves its indestructibility - it is simply unrealistic to make it work for a breakdown! Elastic shock absorbers and 174 mm clearance allow you to forget that you are in a hatchback - it moves no worse than a real crossover! Pits, potholes, speed bumps and other free applications to the modern roads of our Fatherland will not become an obstacle for the driver who has chosen the Datsun Mi-Do.

It is better not to move out of the knurled road on a hatchback.

The reverse side of the coin is in shaking - the hatchback literally shakes the soul out of its riders, diligently transferring all the flaws of the road to the salon. Especially goes to the rear passengers, because with active driving over bumps, the stern begins to be frighteningly thrown into the air. This also interferes with the driver, because the vibrations are transmitted to wheel, which does not suffer from excessive performance anyway.

Feedback on the mi-Do steering wheel is clearly insufficient.

The electric power steering is not able to endow the control with sharpness. As a result, feedback leaves much to be desired. In the city, such annoyance is not too noticeable, but on the highway it is frankly annoying. After all, the steering wheel not only does not respond to small deviations from “zero”, but the amplifier also throws up another surprise, in the form of an unauthorized change in effort.

The brakes don't shine either, despite all the claims to improve their efficiency thanks to the installation vacuum booster. The brakes are “wadded”, so to get a slowdown (even a small one), you need to diligently press on the pedal.

Despite the “advanced” design, the mi-Do brakes are not the most informative.

Salon Datsun mi-Do

Salon mi-Do is made without excessive stiffness - simple, unpretentious and tasteful. Dashboard as informative as possible, the steering wheel is quite comfortable, the deflectors are located at the optimal height, thanks to which they warm up and cool the interior well. The large screen available in the top version adds chic, and the ergonomics are well thought out. Visibility is good, and in critical situations, parking sensors help out.

The interior of the Datsun is pretty, but nothing more.

The seats are soundly profiled, but it is uncomfortable to sit behind the wheel, because the column is adjustable only in height, and the seat - only in the angle of inclination. You have to choose the optimal position for a long time, and the lateral support is so imposing that you don’t even notice its presence.

The adjustment range of the front seats is small, but there is a minimum. And the lateral support is not so hot.

The rear sofa is similar to that of Grants. But the creators of mi-Do claim that they seriously modernized it, replacing the filler and reprofiling it a little - from now on, the passenger seats are not highlighted so clearly.

The rear sofa is almost flat, but the trio of headrests clearly show that the car is a 5-seater.

Visually, the interior is even boring in places - dark color plastic, which did not spare even the emergency gang button, is slightly diluted with deathly pale aluminum inserts. Signs of "budget" are noticeable - small flaws in the assembly, roughness on the plastic, a subtle phenolic smell, which, however, quickly disappears. And the soundproofing leaves much to be desired.

You can briefly look at the mi-Do salon in the top performance in this video:

Equipment and cost

It's nice that Datsun does not save on the safety of its passengers, offering even in the basic version a pair of air-running, supplemented by ABS, BAS and EBD systems. Noticeably - the level of protection, as for the price of 432,000 rubles, is almost unprecedented! Otherwise, however, nothing outstanding - a minimum set of amenities, consisting of an on-board computer, front power windows and power mirrors.

Naturally, with the increase in price, the list is replenished with new devices. So, it also has climate control. And for 466,000 you can get a car with multimedia system, which has a 2DIN monochrome screen, two pairs of speakers, Bluetooth, an SD card slot and a HandsFree function.

An audio system with a small monochrome display in the "base" is not supplied.

Stage changes occur in the next version, which is already sold for 482,000 rubles. The Mi-Do gets stylish, 15-inch moldings, door handles and mirrors painted the same color as the body, door moldings and fog lights. There are also enough innovations in the cabin - this is parking sensors, and full power accessories, and rain and light sensors, and the ESC system (dynamic stabilization), and an alarm system. Definitely worth the extra money!

Most of all you have to pay for the top version - 516,000 rubles. But for such an amount, mi-Do will be equipped navigation system with maps of CIS countries, heated windshield, and security bastions will be reinforced with side airbags.

With navigation, the car is already expensive - 516,000 rubles, and this is without an "automatic".

All announced prices imply the purchase of a Datsun with "mechanics". If you want an "automatic", then you need to add another 40,000 rubles to each of them.

Results - is it worth taking the Datsun Mi-Do?

So did it succeed Japanese company create a model head and shoulders above Grants and Kalina? Can its owner, without a twinge of conscience, say that he bought " japanese car"? This is still unclear. Datsun mi-Do, of course, is better than domestic models, but not so much.

That is why a lot will depend on after-sales service - Datsun dealers must show the “highest class” so that Mi-Do owners can safely recommend their purchase to others!

However, a comprehensive overview of the model can be viewed in this video:

➖ Rattle in engine compartment
➖ Poor build quality
➖ Crickets in the cabin
➖ Fuel consumption
➖ Small trunk

The advantages and disadvantages of the Datsun mi-DO 2018-2019 in a new body are identified based on feedback from real owners. More detailed pros and cons of Datsun mi-DO with mechanics and automatic can be found in the stories below.

Owner reviews

The engine is taut. Clearance in 174 — just a gift for a beginner. Shumka is not up to par, but we must not forget for what money it was bought (506,000 rubles + 30,000 for dopa). The engine-box pair works perfectly — the little car is very smart. Excellent review. Space and simplicity under the hood.

Matvey, drives Datsun mi-DO 1.6 (87 hp) AT 2015

I have been driving this “Japanese” for 5 months now, everything pleases me. It is better to fill in 95 gasoline, the engine runs cleaner, does not ring, although the difference is imperceptible in terms of dynamics. Gasoline consumption is great. On-board computer showed 7.4 liters per 888 km. The stove also works well, everything is blown everywhere, the windows do not fog up.

There are also disadvantages. Front brake pads whistle loudly. Some kind of squabble in the engine compartment, trifling, something, somewhere not fixed, too lazy to look, and rattles ... (crankcase protection rattled, poorly fixed when installed in a car dealership ... drove for two months and listened to rattling))) And the biggest the disadvantage is the buildup of the entire front panel with instruments. It feels like it will fall off, as if the tape recorder weighs 10 kg and it is he who shakes the entire instrument panel.

Video review

It's bad to see positive reviews, because they give others the wrong impression of the machine. The main drawback of mi-DO is the unreliability of the car. The car can easily stall while driving. And if you start from the beginning - immediately after 3 km after the car dealership - I threw out the factory wipers, because. they do not clean even at positive temperatures.

Consumption is really amazing - 14.5 (!) Liters in the city, 11 - mixed mode! what other car with 87 hp capable of that? The doors are made of thin metal, they ring terribly (I'll fix it with a vibration noise in the summer). Crickets when leaving the dealership IMMEDIATELY! (truth found and eliminated, but there are new ones all the time).

Hello review readers! My name is Tatyana. In March, I bought a Datsun mi-DO car and I want to share with you my impressions of the car I bought. Thanks to its dimensions, the car allows you to park almost anywhere. But I also advise lovers of fishing and summer holidays - with its high ground clearance, the DO easily copes with country roads. On the highway, it does not eat much 7-8 l / km, which again is a plus for economical fuel consumption and saving your money.

Where could I buy?

Bought for southern roads and the same weather. Bought consciously. Higher clearance, automatic, air conditioning, small size and lack of interest from hijackers, as well as maintainability.

Of the advantages, I note the dynamics during acceleration. Automatic without any failures. The air conditioning is very good, actually does not take power. Clearance pleased, and so far I have not scurried about the curbs. Brakes peppy, tenacious. I was pleased with the behavior on the serpentine. Pret and still can overtake!

I like the look. At least there is something of its own - the Japanese flagship! Visibility is also good, there are virtually no blind spots in front and from the sides.

Of the shortcomings - the budget in everything. The feeling that you are going in a bucket, but it does not rattle yet, but it hums beautifully. Of course, who uses constantly, it would be nice to make soundproofing. The interior is spartan. For long distances - goodbye back.

You open the hood, and you can shed a tear for the Japanese. A funny "eight" motor sticks out. They didn’t even think of how to cover this shame. But, I think, any wood climber will cope with the repair.

Review of Datsun mi-DO 1.6 (87 hp) on automatic 2016

I am 75 years old, disabled of the 2nd group since 2003 due to leg disease. Accident-free driving experience different brands Zhiguli MT - 45 years. I bought a 2016 Datsun mi-Do AT in September. This was prompted by shares in recycling programs and trade-in.

For 4 months autumn-winter period traveled over 3,000 km. along the highway and country roads. The pendant is wonderful. The car seemed to me fantastically convenient and as comfortable as possible. Management is perfectly easy. Nimble and mobile in the parking lots. Easily turns around on a two-lane road with one run.

Good comfortable seats (heated). Air conditioning and climate control work perfectly and with a large margin. Quiet enough in the cabin when driving. Nothing creaks and does not blow anywhere. Gasoline consumption in the city from 8 to 10 liters. The set of speeds more than satisfies me. The review is good.

I would like brighter panel lighting and AT switch knob lighting. There is also a lack of windshield heating and winter automatic engine warm-up. A bigger trunk wouldn't hurt either.
