Toyota Funcargo - reliable partner of Russian business executives

Once a cartoon about Funtika and Mrs. Belladonna spent several weeks in a row on Soviet television, and the image of a kind and obedient pig sucked into the brains of those who watched it. When the Japanese company Toyota launched the advertising company of the new model with the slogan "Fun - Car - Go", which can be translated as a "cheerful driving car" or "Fans - the car - drove!", This too was not without healthy humor, but clearly not Intertwined with the image of a kind, hard-working pig. And in Russia it was intertwined. And the Japanese car Toyota Funcargo, which we have chosen vacationers, stalls and other business people, nicknamed Funtikom.

Toyota Funcargo - a compact almost minivan, created on the platform of the Vitz model (we are better known as the Toyota Yaris), was made for young people who love group tours or non-economic economic inclinations. Its profile with a somewhat elongated front end, massive front bumper and high minivan rear part easily stands out among cars in general and among "classmates" in particular. Moreover, the wheelbase of Toyota Funcargo is extended by 130 mm in length in comparison with the Vitz design. Memorable and characteristic for this machine is the dashboard unit, taken out to the middle of the torpedo. Such a design is close in spirit to Russian owners as if offering: follow the road, and not at the speed - it will be cheaper. In general, the cabin is comfortable, spacious, raised front seats and folding rear.

The main task of Funtik, after the ability to comfortably carry passengers and household goods, is the ability to economically handle the purse of the owner, reducing his fuel costs. The leader in this task is the engine with the VVT-i system. The cubic capacity of an engine of 1.3 liters, or 1.5 liters, determines the Toyota Funcargo's power characteristics of 87 or 110 horsepower, respectively, and therefore, the ability to overtake other "economic" machines, or not "compete with this," and Easy to carry goods and people. And, as the owners of Funtikov quite rightly note, the presence of an engine of a smaller cubic capacity does not contribute at all to improving the economy of the car, since it makes it more often necessary to use the gas pedal to perform tasks identical with the "subcompact".

With regard to the performance of Toyota Funcargo, feedback from owners from Russia and CIS countries, basically, respects this trouble-free "workaholic". Funtik owners know that there is a suspension repair, but most of them know this by hearsay. And not everyone knows about the repair of engines and hearsay. True, some complain about the rigidity of the suspension of such a car, overcome only by a heavy load. Also lament that in all-wheel drive models, owners do not understand when and why both axles are connected.

In general, Toyota Funcargo is a car that, if you have the inclinations of an economic and economical person, is able to complete your re-education in this direction. Especially, depriving the owner of such a car of ordinary and almost daily car worries, like: "again something was pounding in the suspension" or "tomorrow frost - how to get a job?"
