Toyota Funcargo – failsafe assistant Russian business executives

Once a cartoon about a Pound and Mrs. belladonna for several weeks walked in the morning on Soviet television, and the image of the good and obedient Piglet firmly stuck in the brains of those who watched it. When Japanese company Toyota launched an advertising campaign of the new model with the slogan “Fun – Car – Go”, which can be translated as “a fun driving car” or “Fans – it – go!”, it was also not without a healthy sense of humor, but obviously not intertwined with the image of good, hardworking pig. And in Russia are intertwined. And Japanese Toyota Funcargo, which was chosen by villagers, hot dog sellers and other business personality, called a Pound.

Toyota Funcargo – almost compact minivan created on the platform model Vitz (we have more commonly known as the Toyota Yaris), were made for young people who like group travel or nelechennaya economic tendencies. His profile with a slightly elongated front, massive front bumper and high minfinovskih back easily stands out among cars in General and among the "classmates" in particular. Moreover, the wheelbase of the Toyota Funcargo is extended in length by 130 mm compared with the design of the Vitz. Memorable and characteristic of this machine is the instrument panel cluster, brought to the middle of the torpedo. This design is similar in spirit to the Russian owners like offers: watch the road and not for speed – for less work. Overall, the cabin offers the convenience, roominess, raised front seats and folding rear.

The Main objective of the Pound, after the ability to comfortably transport passengers and commercial goods is the ability economically to handle the purse of the owner, reducing its fuel costs. Leading this task is the engine with a system VVT-i. The engine cubic capacity of 1.3 liters or 1.5 liters are determined by the Toyota Funcargo power specifications in ' 87 or 110 horsepower, respectively, and hence the ability to overtake other “commercial” or not ‘to compete with this”, and safely transport goods and people. Moreover, as rightly noticed by the owners of the cornets, the presence of a smaller engine cubic capacity does not contribute to improving vehicle efficiency, as it forces more use of the gas pedal to do the same with “Volkswagen fellow” problems.

In respect of the performance of Toyota Funcargo, reviews of owners from Russia and the CIS countries, mostly respect this trouble-free “workaholic”. The owners Funtikov know that there is a repair of the suspension, but most of them, knows this firsthand. And the repair of engines and know not all.

In General, Toyota Funcargo – a car that, if you have inclinations economic and efficient person, able to complete your re-education in this direction. Moreover, depriving the owner of such a machine a regular and almost daily automotive concerns, such as: “again, in the suspension something rattling” or “tomorrow frost – how to start?”
