They go back and forth without borders. Only here materyalchik disappoint. Tarpaulin in "Merce" - nonsense ... SNARUZhIKak they look like? Yes great: a thoroughbred and a bit aggressive. True, the aggression becomes noticeable only in a company like this, where the trio into a militantly bitter rivals in the struggle for the souls and hearts of consumers. All - representatives of the long-established brands. In this regard, they often look to miss a single drop of admiration for the short-term fad. They - the classics. Familiarity with the "persons" because of the long-standing stylistic grounds, a clear and instantaneous. However, Mercedes also identified by their class, because such an eye-lights, like the C-class, no more, no one in the modern line of DaimlerChrysler. Audi style in relation to the family hierarchy less defined, and in conditions of "low visibility" "four" can be mistaken for an older family member of the "four rings". Person "treshki» BMW demonstrates the inherent verbosity of handwriting Bangle, allowing her personality manifests itself easily. Side - just the beauty in its true sense. What lines, what the silhouettes! Strange, but the German love of order is no longer stifled emotions. However, because of the high parapet line looks a bit ponderous Audi, and the impression of excessively brutal form does not save even the image of the car-athlete. Another thing - Mercedes. The swiftness and ease of his lines remind and S and SL, with each owner sees something different - though necessarily belonging to the grounds of "family" and her style. Profile BMW - is, of course, ultimately minimize front overhang and reverse tilt-pillar "C". Behind all the stylists, if by agreement, placed a fat point of recognition by the shape and drawing the tail lights. INSIDE judiciously German design has always been so taken inside and outside - all identical, and it seems that both the exterior and interior painting and doing the same designer. Finally moved up to this level and the American Bangle. However, this perception does not impoverish. On the contrary, only reinforces the sense of integrity, reliability and comfort. Despite the fact that the architecture of instrument panels clearly T-shaped and arranged in a single ergonomic scheme - the panels are different. Others just as much as these cars are different from the outside. That controls, their design is clearly fulfills the same topic: reliability and comfort in Mercedes, a BMW sports charisma and innate intelligence with Audi. REZYuMEChto can I say? Trust your instincts and eye. In the end, the style of a small sedan with a strong sporting charisma made precisely with the amendment to the individual. Your, including. Distribution momentaBMW The main difference between the latest generation four-wheel drive "treshek" - X-drive system instead of the usual inter-axle differential. Kinematics of transmissions is such that the rear axle is connected continuously, while the proportion of torque to the front can vary from 0 to 50% with electronically controlled multi-plate clutch. Its ultrafast required along with the chassis control system DSC provide instant control and supply power to each wheel. Thus, the disc clutch in the transfer case to some extent, connects the front wheels, and DSC retarding each of them, and is also able to remove the excess gas. DSC system can be turned off. Mercedes-Benz design of transmission is the transfer case, after the usual one. From it to the rear and front wheel drive shafts depart. The rotation is transmitted through the free center differential. ESP stability control and Traction control 4ETS deliberately slows down the wheel and the faltering transfer drive torque to the wheels with better traction. In calm conditions, torque is distributed between front and rear axles on a 40:60. Audi Quattro all-wheel drive transmission is basically a center differential Torsen, located in the shank of the gearbox. Its main advantage - the possibility of a smooth mechanical locking stalled axis. In addition, the machine is equipped with switchable stability control system, ESP, retarding slipper wheel. Torsen is the most compact of the center differential. ErgonomikaNachnem with "eternal mark." Mercedes has always been and will be true to the spirit happy three-beam star. Every detail of the interior done thoroughly, despite the fact that this is just Tseshka. Do not discount making the year of the model (2001 th), we note the pseudo "tarpaulin" seats, which is somewhat disconcerting. Plastic trim is soft, soft to the touch and expensive. In general, significant errors in the cabin there. Seat yourself optimally cover the driver's body, boundless powered by length and height can be arranged for anyone. Even the rear seats have enough tall two uncles, plus one of subtle teenager. The third extra fat here. Historic firm "iconostasis" buttons console here does not seem archaic, but makes the car a little closer to the older "brothers." The instrument panel was replaced by usual pale-yellow glow to the same by saturation, but bluish. The ignition key, just use the keyfob. He, as usual, and his predecessor, is inserted and rotated, without forcing the driver to solve puzzles tricky start. Chetyrehspitsevy wheel unexpectedly smooth forms is excellent in the hands and completely covers the dashboard. In Mercedes'a most comfortable grip selector knob and interior door opening to the "right" places. The doors slam with a small Mercedes'a rich sound, and if not for a traditional stalk "odnorychazhnik" overloaded functions, but now a legitimate shtatovskih "nozhnik" saloon car could be recognized by traditional flawless. A noble sound of the engine and excellent soundproofing - a couple of the usual qualities of the brand. As well as excellent sound from the speaker stereo system. Exterior mirrors are pleased with its size and sharp image, right down ready when you are moving backwards. Finally - one more familiar "chip". Button on the toolbar down rear head restraints, revealing overview ago. Tradition and the tradition again. Contrary to tradition - landing behind. Places along the length of frankly a little, and move the leg over the high threshold is not easy. Mercedes back in bimerski uzhalsya. "Bavarian baroque angel ..." - so called first post-war model BMW. How long has it been. And was it? I will allow myself "a small amount of emotion." Looking at the interior of the youngest in the test car, there is no association not only with the historical (and personally I certainly respected for many years), the legacy brand, but also with more recent machines. From strict neutral and deliberately simplified lines dash and console blows cold bottomless abyss of the ocean that separates Europe and America. Does not save even a very "warm" orange light units and buttons. Maybe the new Bavarian-style eventually get used to new Bavarians, who explained that it is - a modern, stylish, cool and yet somehow commercials, but come alive in my memory only organic interiors of many predecessors prevent me put this car on a par with them . In pursuit of the transcontinental client stylists BMW «renounce the old world." A revolution rarely brings positive results ... "Treshka" loses the competition and part of the "status" of perception. Hard line torpedo as hard to the touch, and the relief surface resembles not the best texture of the skin mersedesovskih seats. Of course, all tailored exclusively okay, instruments on the console are well grouped and can be seen, but in general the interior looks more expensive BMW. Despite the fact that he, again, most "fresh." Thick seats have very good support, range of adjustment is large. But for the driver who prefers a high landing here is not a comfortable position there. However, the most likely winner of such a machine wants to sit lower. Overall, BMW seats liked the least. Three-spoke steering wheel and twist to hold good. Hex hub though is the most impressive of all, the scale and the light bulb does not close, and the buttons on the steering wheel at the Bavarian most obvious. Taking a cue from Opel, BMW acquired nefiksiruyuschimisya levers turn signals and wipers. Why such a swift car? In order to develop a little more adrenaline? Far made by the mirrors are small and heavily distorted area larger than expected. Another story - the ignition key. Get used to start the engine by pressing the first key, and then the button can be, but is it necessary? Button in the driver's armrest, power windows located on the surface is inclined from the driver. A door "popping" with some sharp "dzynkom", and sometimes - the second time ... Poor insulation wheel arches "treshki" alarmed already at 60 km / h, and the recruitment of "hundreds" in the cabin reigns constant rumble. Winter wheels, of course, not harmless shumogenerator. But in other machines and toothy more studded as "the cabin" does not climb. And one more thing. On the top edge of door openings is a pretty impressive corner trim panel roof. And in front of and behind him always touched our hats tall passengers. Many minor quibbles, you say? So. But competitors are considerably smaller. And the machine is not cheap. Than the BMW suddenly surprised, because this trip back. Suddenly, because it has always been mersedesovskim advantage. The "Bavarian" very roomy back seat. And the most convenient. The same can be said about the rear headrests with armrest. Slightly interfere with the wheel arches and the roof of smallish, but the doorway behind the BMW is the largest. Not a driving car? Audi consistently pleases us most thorough approach to organizing "living space". "Gold" balance between rigor, luxury and functionality, engineers from Ingolstadt stand the best. Instruments, knobs and buttons, the display window and selector will satisfy everyone. Usual trapezoidal wheel hub and asks in his hands. The seats easily fit under any height and weight, and besides, they get comfortable and sorokakilogrammovy and stosorokakilogrammovy "driver." Equally quality. Comfort of light tones emphasize the finishing materials and excellent quality leather seats. Mirrors are great and above all. Red alarm light sensor is adjusted to a strict way. The rear seat is roomy not name, but compared to the competition, landing a favorable input-output and does not restrict passengers in height. Audyushnaya "music» BOSE surround sound emits luscious and very easy to use. She did not have to contend with the external noises. Signature sound of the engine on "top" - the only accompaniment, caressing the ear devotees of the brand. The most pleasant is the fact that all the controls in this car has always been the standard. No habituation or solving a algorithms are required. Motor is started and stopped pressing the button. A key from his pocket can not be removed. It has long been known system, but it is easy and convenient! DinamikaV the discipline clearly won the BMW at all. Bavarian "horse" and responsive engine box to respond to any change in the thrust and the main thing - do it without delay and to all the "one hundred". Bravo!

No habituation or solving a algorithms are required. Motor is started and stopped pressing the button. A key from his pocket can not be removed. It has long been known system, but it is easy and convenient! DinamikaV the discipline clearly won the BMW at all. Bavarian "horse" and responsive engine box to respond to any change in the thrust and the main thing - do it without delay and to all the "one hundred". Changing gears in the "machine" subtly and becomes more severe only in manual mode. Bravo! Good Bavarian "German" this is not forgotten. So to all! The brakes on BMW more than meet the accelerating dynamics: the powerful, but trudnodoziruemye. A little too far - works ABS. Slightly nedoborschil - slow enough. We have to play very subtly left pedal. This machine is similar to many of the "French", requiring delicate handling of the pedals. Audi has won a bit part in Mercedesa leap from their seats, though both lost "bimeasures." When driving, they show roughly the same speed, and almost the same delay after the sharp "stomping" on the "gas". This feature of all modern cars, the designers who bring "jumping" to sacrifice environmental constraints. And so I would like a little faster ... Powerful nearly constant acceleration "squat" during switching, and on the move almost no delay. The conditions of our test as a per se exclude the fuel economy. Ice, all-wheel drive, often - gas to the floor, the total volume of eight liters and six hundred for the three forces. What kind of savings there ... Yet most of all "ate» Audi, a little smaller - Mercedes, but the most conservative "appetite" delighted BMW. Manageability, and we checked our komfortSnachala "horses" on frozen capital asphalt. Two of our three Germans - notably the owners of the "heavy" wheels. Mercedes just seemed a bit squeezed, and openly showed severe BMW steering wheel. While the machine itself excessively responsive to each pustyashnuyu longitudinal roughness. Even subtle cracks cause serious pulling to one side, the same bumps more character - perestavka entire car. And, quite sharp. Surprisingly, that has quite sports car habits have literally hold on the line. Uniform motion is not obtained. At the same time, weighted steering has almost one hundred percent feedback, what aggravates "vihlyuchest" the whole apparatus as a whole. All of this contributes little to comfortable ride, which to a greater or lesser extent would expect from a thoroughbred machine. Shock absorbers with coil springs (especially the rear), fully in line with the sharp reactions can shake even a very good athlete. The behavior of Mercedes, taking into account the steering too heavy, just infinitely different from the Bavarian beauties. As conceived and passed - that was his motto. A feeling that a thin layer of snow hidden track, which is rolling our "tram" - to turn him out of the way is impossible. A special shaking on the streets we were not felt. Well, for it has always been renowned appreciate "the Germans" with "an eye" on the hood. Let us check what this "concrete" will result in curves on the ice. Audi - soft cat in the pack. Easy, even a very easy drive. No sudden movements, no yaw or perestavok. All predictable, and in spite of the total four-wheel drive competitors, the Audi feels taxiing in front-wheel-dominant, while Mercedes'a - a classic. As expected. Known audyushnaya heaviness of the nose, even on the icy road is not too annoying urban driver. Of course, if not overly abused the "gas" in the corners. Comfort in all places - a great achievement ingolshtadskih podvesochnikov. Audi - the most "personosberegayuschaya" car in the test. It is not cumbersome, but there are no annoying small accelerations. The optimum ratio of springs, shock absorbers, stabilizer and multi-link suspension - the key to success. The main examination for handling cars had to pass on the ice rowing canal in Krylatskoe. Everyone on zaslugamSamym serious result of our test was the general opinion that, at least in the "junior" class of the great classical German brands have changed the image of each other and driving dynamics. Not all, but very much Mercedes-Benz and BMW exchanged auditoriey purchasing. And if people had the power and always preferred the leisurely "Merc" and "beshka" was the lot of daredevils, but now much more appropriate, yet comfortable "drive" will get the owner of Mercedes-Benz C 280 4matic, a lover to show off and show a nice bulk purse, and at the same time and status chooses BMW 325xi. If it were not tough bimerskaya suspension, the cars just "have replaced" would be each other. Audi, as initially the front-wheel car, and by tradition is a bit aloof and did nothing is not going to change. Be the courtyard summer, clean, dry pavement and other ground - the results could be quite different. But in our area for six months winter, and at least two months of permanent ice. So the estimate - with a winter twist. Our "ice" absolutely clear arrivals were placed competitors in places. Stiff and malokomfortnaya BMW has not been able to show off a miraculous electronics X-drive. Her uncontrolled flights in most turns and overall rating is not exactly short of the standard one hundred percent German car, allowed a very stylish car on the outside only up to third place. It seems no accident that this car is cheaper and all. Audi and Mercedes-Benz were going "head to head," but drayverskogo aspect of our test and a more prog-noziruemoe and confident behavior in pure ice, put forward a "Merc" forward. So calmly and with dignity is no longer able to pass anyone. In addition, he decently cheaper rivals - Audi, though a little lose on the last part of the extreme riding comfort. Thus, the more comfortable A4 quattro, due to their lazy movements of the nose into the turn, took second place. A staunch C 280 4matic - the first thing and congratulate him.
