The best new cars under 2.5 million rubles in 2021

The mass car market is, in a sense, faceless. There are many identical cars, on the one hand, it seems not bad - budget cars, which are a dime a dozen, are of little interest to professional hijackers. Premium models are more vulnerable in this regard, but they provide their owners with the opportunity to stand out, and this cannot be considered a secondary factor. In addition, cars worth up to 2.5 million rubles, as a rule, are equipped with much better equipment and contain many options that cheaper cars are not supposed to have due to their price status.

What does the market for such cars offer in 2021? Let's ask the price.

Volkswagen passat

The premium German D-class sedan tops the rating of new cars up to 2,500,000 rubles. Cars intended for the domestic market are equipped with steel motor protection and a package that allows you to change the ground clearance depending on the condition of the roadway, as well as the stiffness of the suspension.

The Passat is a comfortable sedan, and this comfort is evident in everything, even in soundproofing, which, thanks to carefully designed aerodynamics of the body, is at a premium level.

True, you won't be able to buy a top-end configuration, but Business will also delight you with a large number of options - three-zone climate control, 6 airbags, two parking sensors, a rear-view camera, and a combined interior trim (high-quality leather plus artificial suede).

Toyota Camry

If you are thinking about what car to buy with 2,500,000 rubles, provided that it should be a D-class car, the best choice would be the time-tested Japanese sedan. Dynamic appearance with notes of premium and monumentality clearly demonstrates the status of the car. But it is enough to look inside to completely forget about the solid exterior - the salon just rolls over with design delights. That only is the "space" center console, reminiscent of the compartment of the orbital station. And this beauty can be purchased almost in the maximum configuration. However, the difference is small - you will not have 4 overview cameras and a head-up display. The rest of the equipment is almost identical.

Audi A3 sedan

Among the best new cars for 2,500,000 rubles is the A3 model from Audi, and in the sedan body - in Russia, the USA and a number of other countries, hatchbacks are disliked. But the whole trick is that the hatchback appeared first, and only then it was "converted" into a three-box. And quite well - only the front of the car indicates the relationship, otherwise the sedan looks more attractive.

But the A3 salons are completely identical, with premium trim, comfortable seats, excellent ergonomics and an extensive technical base.

There is an opportunity to purchase a car in the top-end all-wheel drive version of Sport, and there will still be money left for retrofitting.

Mazda 6

The sixth Mazda is considered one of the most beautiful executive class sedans, fully consistent with the corporate concept of the brand "KODO - the soul of movement". The car successfully combines a dynamic elegant appearance and an exquisite interior, perfect technical filling and excellent driving characteristics.

For 2.5 million you can buy a top-end Executive + Turbo sedan, with 6 airbags, LED optics, dual-zone climate control, a rearview camera, front / rear parking sensors and other options.

Nissan x-trail

The fifth place in the list of new cars up to 2,500,000 rubles is occupied by the Japanese crossover, which is a recognized world bestseller in the SUV category (segment of compact / mid-size crossovers).

The third generation of the X-Trail is strikingly different from the previous two - it was decided to abandon the classic forms in favor of a modern, more universal design. Our budget will be enough to buy the most expensive modification of the LE Top crossover, equipped with a leather interior, dual-zone climate control, 6 airbags and a whole lot of security systems.

Kia sportage

The fourth-generation crossover from the second-largest Korean automaker is a vehicle that can handle almost any off-road. Not everyone will like the eye-catching appearance with bulging headlights, but if you are not conservative, then you will certainly love this very comfortable and safe SUV.

In addition, for a price of 2,500,000 rubles, you can buy a car in top-end configuration, and this is a leather interior, dual-zone climate control, 6 airbags and a large set of security systems, intelligent cruise control and many other options.

Skoda Kodiaq

The car, named after one of the North American brown bear species, is the Czech automaker's firstborn in the midsize crossover segment. Moreover, the seven-seater layout of the Skoda's cabin also appeared for the first time. Following the fashion, the designers provided the SUV with a catchy appearance, a large range of engines (all of which are turbocharged) and impeccable technical stuffing. Our budget will not be enough only for the top-end variant, but the difference in equipment will be small.

Volkswagen tiguan

The second generation of Volkswagen's compact crossover is characterized by an ideal combination of a modern "adult" exterior, a comfortable and at the same time practical interior and exemplary technical and operational properties.

The SUV can be called universal - it will fit both young married couples and older motorists.

Moreover, if the appearance of the crossover does not cause any associations, then the interior reminds many of the Tuareg salon - the same solid and solid. You can't buy a top-end car for 2.5 million rubles, but the Exclusive version is equipped very well.

Toyota RAV4

The model, which became the first crossover of the compact class, has entered the number of world bestsellers since its inception, largely determining the direction of development of this segment. The fifth generation of the Japanese SUV continues to conquer the top of the world rankings, entering our top 10 best new cars that can be bought for 2,500,000 rubles.

True, with each new generation, prices are also growing, so today the maximum that can be counted on with this amount is for a mid-level Style AWD with 7 airbags, a winter package, dual-zone climate control and a number of other options.

Peugeot 3008

Although the Peugeot 3008 is positioned as a compact segment crossover, many call it a family compact van that looks like a SUV, but without even a hint of four-wheel drive.

Nevertheless, we included this car for 2,500,000 rubles in our rating, since the lack of a drive to the rear axle is compensated by a high ground clearance (22 cm), and with everything else, the car is in perfect order. You can count on the Allure version, which is equipped with an intelligent drive system with multiple driving modes.

As you can see, there is plenty to choose from, and in this price category sedans of the C / D class or crossovers, compact or mid-size, prevail. The rating does not include full-fledged frame SUVs, because, except for the Jimny, they cost a little more. There are few hatchbacks here - the vast majority of brands have them more affordable.
