New UAZ Patriot 2014 model year at the beginning of August 2013, it left the assembly line of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant; on August 6, the first copy was produced modernized car. In our review we will tell you in detail what the difference is between the modernized UAZ Patriot SUV 2014, show photos and indicate what specifications and the price of the updated car.
Convenient control knob with three transmission operating modes: 2H – rear drive, 4H - all-wheel drive and 4L - all-wheel drive and a low range of gears. Four-wheel drive can be turned on at a speed of up to 60 km/h, but to engage lower gears you will have to stop, fully depress the clutch pedal, wait 3-5 seconds and only then move the control knob to the extreme right position. It's nice that the selected transmission mode is displayed on the instrument panel as a hint.
New Korean transfer case gears significantly improved traction characteristics Russian SUV, the “lower” gear ratio is now 2.56 (on SUVs with a domestic transfer case 1.94). A car with the low gear mode activated is literally idle speed engine climbs to the top of a slippery hill and allows you to move more confidently over difficult off-road conditions.
The installation of a manual gearbox from Dymos on a 2014 UAZ Patriot entailed a change in the frame cross member, the rear cardan changed dimensions and lost its intermediate support. The drive design has also changed hand brake, now the handbrake cables are attached directly to brake drums rear wheels.
The new transfer gearbox has significantly improved the ergonomics of the location of the controls. The control unit for power windows and rear-view mirrors has moved to the armrest driver's door. For front passenger The power window button is also located on the armrest.
Seat finishing materials have become of higher quality, and heating options have become available. windshield, heated front seats and a separate heater for those sitting in the back. Inside, the SUV has become much more comfortable, and most importantly, quieter. The Korean transfer case does not irritate the driver and passengers with howling, humming and rattling levers. When connected front axle and activation low gear It’s quiet in the cabin, and you can only know when it’s turned on by the indicator on the dashboard.
At the beginning of the review we said that updated UAZ The 2014 model year Patriot cannot be distinguished externally from the 2013 model car, this is not entirely true. The new UAZ Patriot 2014 body sports headlights with LED daytime running lights.
We can safely say that the current restyling (new manual transmission with electronically controlled, improved ergonomics) and updates carried out at the end of 2012 (installation of a modern soft-touch instrument panel, new door upholstery and ceiling, high-quality new system heating, ventilation and air conditioning, an advanced multimedia system with hands free) made it possible to raise the UAZ Patriot 2014 to a higher quality and high level, while maintaining the high off-road potential of the Russian car.
I will not evaluate the UAZ Patriot from scratch, but from above, so to speak. Before he owned a shniva (I should also write a review on it) and several cars in long-term operation. It’s all the more interesting because I know, I know, that many are considering the option of changing the shnivka to a cartridge. So I’ll just tell them here :)
So, the threader worked for me for more than three years, covered about 70 thousand kilometers and was traded in. I got to know her inside and out, although she didn’t cause any particular problems. At 50 thousand km. jammed brake cylinder- the swell disappeared. Taking into account the operation in silica shit (from Moscow to Kasimov via Ryazan and Lukhovitsy) - nothing surprising .. Yes, it burst 5 times expansion tank. By and large, she suited me with everything. All-wheel drive through an honest differential, high ground clearance, in moderation comfortable interior. But still, one fatal flaw upset me - the dramatically small trunk. Anyone who owns a 4x4 Lada or a Shnivoy knows about this. Although, as a parting compliment, I can say that in “egoist” mode (when you drive alone) or with two people, she was gorgeous. But who travels through the forests alone, right?
One way or another, I decided to change it.
I limited my choice to 700 sput. At some point in life, you begin to understand that the consumer approach is a dead-end branch. You begin to evaluate things from the standpoint of overall utility (the bourgeoisie has an excellent word “utility”, which I could not find a good translation in Russian). You can take an expensive car. But God, how terrible it is to shake over a piece of iron. Whatever one may say, the car should be “not a pity” to a certain extent. By the way, the concept of “psychological permeability” is based on this. Expensive car It has the worst cross-country ability because the owner regrets driving it off-road.
Given the class restrictions, I wanted something more or less universal across forests, fields, and lakes. I can immediately say that I don’t climb in swamps and all these elevators, swamps and off-road vehicles don’t bother me. Only if as a spectator. Well, I wanted something new. I'm quite tolerant of used cars, but not for personal use.
I've been looking at the patriots seriously since the summer, thinking about everything. I was captivated by the huge trunk, simple design and the availability of machine prostheses. But most of all, of course, is the abundance of documentation on these Internets of yours. I consulted with my family. My father said that if I buy a Patriot, he will abandon me. And that you need to buy a Duster, because it is relatively reliable and economical, and I, a Moscow hand-assed asshole, don’t need anything else. Because of this, of course, I finally decided to buy a car :) And then subsidies for new cars through trade-in turned up.
But seriously, the decision was forced. Honestly, it was scary. They write a lot of bad things on the forums, saying that everything breaks, rots and falls off. It was somewhat reassuring that I refused to use the car in the city, only on weekends for nature, which means that if I make a mistake with the decision, it will not be particularly critical. In general, my father and I decided that if the soul lies, then so be it. In the end, life doesn't end there. One way or another, I decided.
I won’t tell you how I bought it. There is nothing new in this procedure. If anyone is curious, I’ll tell you more.
One way or another, I got the machine. For the first five kilometers I thought I would turn gray ahead of time. Most of all it scared me additional pump(I later found out that it was she who was howling). At first I thought it was the fuel pump howling. The stump is clear, my f*** hairs stood on end with fear. Moreover, the dog doesn’t stop. Then I figured out that if you turn the heating to minimum, it turns off. I stopped, looked on the Internet, and calmed down.
The clutch tightened up a bit. When the connection is smooth, the car begins to shake, and some kind of resonance occurs. The reason is understandable, of course - uneven transmission of torque - but it’s annoying. With a slight over-gassing there is no such effect. I'll keep an eye on it as I use it.
Average consumption gasoline is a different story. 45 liters per hundred. Also, then I realized that he takes into account the consumption during idle work engine based on a simple ratio of total consumption to distance traveled. When I started, the consumption began to drop sharply.
As a result, I covered a total distance of only 60 km on Monday (!) evening (!) from VDNKh to Lyublino. Based on the results of this “test run” I can report the following:
1. The cabin is not noisy. Nothing creaks or howls. Even extra. The heater pump stopped howling and began to rustle quietly. Neither the Niva nor the Lincoln Navigator (I used it for a month while I was waiting for the car) is quieter. This is absolutely accurate.
2. The engine is really very flexible. Even unusual. Well, those who changed from shnivka to patr will understand me.
3. Yes, my dears, he is on the prowl! It’s not critical, it’s not so bad that you have to catch it, but you can’t give up the steering wheel. He won't be going straight for long. And you have to watch the road. Although this did not last long - the roads were very busy.
4. The average consumption was 17 liters per hundred. However, we understand that this is garbage and it can only be assessed after 5,000 kilometers using receipts. The rest of the method is from the evil one :)
5. The ride is simply convenient, due to a combination of factors. Despite the heavy snowfall, excellent visibility, high visibility, silence in the cabin and fabulous light. Subjectively - I liked it.
In October 2014, a long-awaited event took place - the first restyled serial UAZ Patriot 2014 was assembled on the assembly line of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant.
This new model features stylish design and a wide range of comfort options to satisfy a wide range of potential buyers.
Never before has a single presentation of a product from the Russian automotive industry been held with such anticipation. The new UAZ Patriot 2014 aroused enormous interest not only among fans of this type of vehicle, capable of driving on the most difficult off-road conditions and at the same time unpretentious in maintenance, but also among representatives of the press, who followed its every next step towards its appearance on the market. From time to time, while reading another review, one could get fragmentary information about what the body or interior of a new car looks like and look at photographs of its fragments. But the final answer to the questions of car enthusiasts could only be given by its official presentation. Interest in the product of the automotive industry was fueled by the release in the summer of 2014 of two special series (one of which is UnLimited), which preceded the appearance of the new model.
The long-awaited update from the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant
On October 7, the expected event took place and the lineup UAZ's product range was supplemented by the updated Patriot, which became a continuation of the targeted policy pursued by the manufacturer to improve the reliability, quality and ease of use of manufactured vehicles. His presentation showed that thanks to active work on innovative changes in production processes, modernization of its sections, reducing costs and increasing labor efficiency, the plant managed to bring to the market a competitive product that was in demand by the buyer. The 2014 Patriot is in no way inferior to cars of its class, and surpasses them in a number of positions. After the release of the UnLimited special series, the updated Comfort and Limited appeared. Stylish body design, luxurious interior, increased comfort and exquisite interior give new UAZ products an excellent chance of fighting for leadership in the Russian market. automotive market. Repeated market review automotive products conducted by various experts showed that the consumer has long been waiting for Russian manufacturer qualitatively new products, not inferior imported analogues. The restyled Patriot turned out to be as modern and comfortable as possible. The updated UAZ has acquired a spacious interior made from high-quality materials, equipped with last word technology. New navigation system, modern multifunctional touch display (7 inches), parking sensors, rear view camera, providing reliable review dead zones, trip computer and “polite light” are just a small list of advantages that the updated Patriot has acquired. On the modern market, UAZ is one of the most successful examples of a constantly evolving car. Its interior has been improved many times in just a few years, while the new model has not lost the advantages achieved previously. New Patriot has a choice of two engines: 2.7-liter gasoline or 2.3-liter diesel. Cardan shafts have become maintenance-free and have an increased service life. Wheel disks for new models - R16 or R18 to choose from (the Limited package includes the latter). The developers did everything possible to make the Patriot extremely easy to drive, and its driver was provided with excellent visibility and maximum comfort. The seats can be easily and conveniently controlled, taking the position necessary for an ideal driving position, and, if necessary, can be transformed into a berth. The interior of the new 2014 car has become much more convenient for passengers. In particular, a second heater has appeared, controlled separately and creating its own microclimate on back seat, which also became freer by 8 cm. 
The ergonomics of the car are especially good in the Limited trim level. Modern multimedia system, which reproduces Full HD video, as well as AM/FM/MP3 and is equipped with USB/AUX ports, in combination with four high-quality speakers, allows you to turn the UAZ interior into a comfortable place to relax.
Power and reliability, versatility and comfort
The updated UAZ Patriot was released under the motto “power and reliability, versatility and comfort.” The model has a new V-shaped radiator grille, headlights that have changed their design and are equipped with daytime running lights. running lights on photodiodes, nice side mirrors body colors with built-in turn signals.
As a result, the 2014 Patriot acquired a harmonious and holistic look. The new UAZ received integrated side steps, having voluminous niches that are not damaged when traveling off-road. For increase lateral stability when maneuvering the car acquired rear stabilizer. In addition, on updated UAZ a stylish container for the spare wheel is installed, decorated with a silver “Patriot” inscription and modern design rear lights. In order not to affect the passability, ground clearance remained unchanged - 210 mm.
Previously, in June 2014, the limited edition Patriot UnLimited was released. The UnLimited body has been painted in an exclusive color (Quartz Metallic) and the wheels are blackened R16 alloy wheels. On the road, the UnLimited series model is easily distinguished by its original spare wheel container, its chrome rim sparkling in the sun. The car's interior is equipped with black leather seats, decorated with a two-tone "UnLimited" logo. The first review of the UnLimited special series showed increased attention and the high interest of car enthusiasts in these products, so these cars are unlikely to have time to stagnate in dealer lots.
First assessments of the new car
Three trim levels of Patriot family cars were delivered to the assembly line: Classic, Comfort and Limited. Any of them can be equipped with both gasoline and diesel engine. Having equal performance characteristics, the trim levels are distinguished by an additional level of comfort, with the maximum level in the Limited. Starting from October 2014, all official UAZ dealers began accepting applications for the Patriot of the 2014 model year. The color range of cars for sale is extremely rich and can satisfy the most sophisticated and refined taste. Of particular interest to buyers is the top-end Limited, which is maximally equipped with everything necessary.
Test drives carried out dealer centers, showed good adaptation the vehicle to both urban and off-road conditions, which is confirmed by tests carried out by buyers of UAZ products. Highly appreciated by buyers ride quality, interior and equipment of the updated model.
Most dealers were already prepared for the release of the 2014 car, so each of them had their own presentation, at which the Patriot was presented in the Limited trim level. The press was unanimous in its assessment that UAZ products were met with great interest. Even female fashion models, usually invited to decorate such an event, could not distract the gazes of men directed at the Patriot Limited, hidden from prying eyes by a blanket. The overwhelming majority of those present enthusiastically appreciated the work of the manufacturer, noting the excellent stylish appearance of the car of the year, its interior interior and comfort. Everyone wanted to get into the salon and try its ergonomics for themselves. The high performance characteristics and modern stylish look of the new Patriot Limited were especially noted. Summarizing the above, we can definitely say that UAZ is on the right track, the restyling was a success and all series and configurations of 2014: from limited edition UnLimited to the restyled model in the Limited configuration will definitely find their owner.

The rear suspension has been upgraded by installing an anti-roll bar, which should reduce roll when cornering. More rigid body supports are designed to reduce the amplitude of its vibrations during maneuvering.
Implemented
In February 2014, UAZ launched a line cataphoretic priming. The advantage of the new priming process is greater penetration. This makes it possible to process all hidden and hard-to-reach cavities, including the edges of parts, through the use of an external electric field. Due to this, the body’s resistance to corrosion damage increases eightfold. The new production line has been manufactured German company EISENMANN Anlagenbau GmbH & Co. KG.
Since May 2014, UAZ Patriot has been equipped with a modern ABS Bosch 9th generation with functions EBD(brake force distribution system) and CPC(obstacle to separation rear axle from the road). During braking, ABS prevents the wheel that has the least grip from locking. road surface, thereby ensuring even tire wear. These changes provide less braking distances and better vehicle handling, while maintaining its directional stability and thereby significantly increasing driver safety and comfort. This option is available on the car UAZ Patriot included "Limited".
Implemented digital multiplex system electrical package management. The control unit for power windows and mirrors has been moved to the driver's door armrest. On the remaining doors in the armrest area there are also individual power window control buttons. This option allows the driver to easily adjust the height of the windows without being distracted from traffic, and drive as comfortably and safely as possible. The multiplex system is available on UAZ Patriot and UAZ Pickup in “Comfort” and “Limited” trim levels.
Patriot family cars received another feature - "Polite Light", which adds convenience when closing doors. It works as follows: when the doors are opened, the interior lights turn on, and after closing, they smoothly turn off after a while in a theatrical style.
New radio differs from previous version higher power and updated speakers. The audio system is equipped with an automatic search for radio stations with the maximum signal level, an RDS function, and can also play standard files. MP3 and high quality uncompressed WAV files. In addition, for greater comfort, cars are now equipped with a slot for SD cards, USB input and adjustable brightness of button and display backlight. The function has been further improved Hands Free, which uses a modern version to communicate with the phone Bluetooth 2.0, and the microphone is moved to top part audio systems for better audibility of the interlocutor. The new radio is available on UAZ Patriot and UAZ Pickup vehicles in the “Comfort” and “Limited” trim levels.
New power steering
From June 2014 on cars UAZ Patriot And UAZ Pickup install a new steering gear kit and power steering hoses.
Complete with power steering, a power steering pump is used, manufactured by under license famous German manufacturer ZF Lenksysteme. Thanks to his work, it was possible to provide progressive steering drive characteristics. This means that as the vehicle speed increases, the force on the steering wheel increases, reducing the likelihood of steering errors. To increase the reliability of the system, the design of the new hoses uses a more stable option for attaching them to the mechanism and pump. As a result of joint work, the resource was significantly increased cardan shaft steering and defect excluded t knocking of the structure that appears during operation.
The implemented changes made it possible to improve the characteristics (settings) of the hydraulic booster, which were designed taking into account the features of the UAZ Patriot and UAZ Pickup. The sensitivity, accuracy and information content of the steering have now become much higher.
November 7, 2014 official dealer UAZ company Techincom held a presentation of the new UAZ Patriot 2014.
November 17, 2014 The official start of sales of the updated UAZ Patriot 2014 has been announced

interview with Anton Karpov on the portal
Quite decent car, a domestic automobile industry that fits our conditions. I think that for that kind of money it is better to buy a Patriot than a jeep, which will cost three times more. The design of the Patriot is quite acceptable, I would even say modern. New model so it can’t help but make me happy - LED headlights, enlarged foglights, installed another heater, and in general a bunch of electronics were installed in the car. The new Patriot has been really improved, now it is even more stable and holds the road better. A large body, a lot of space, even for passengers sitting in the back, it has become even more comfortable.
UAZ Patriot, 2014
I recently bought myself a Patriot and I don’t regret it at all. Good value prices and quality. The engine is powerful, the car is a beast! It will take place anywhere: in the city, on country roads. I often go fishing, checked! Fuel consumption is 14-16 liters per hundred, not little, but normal for such a car. Since the car is tall, the view in traffic is wider. The interior is spacious, passengers are not cramped, even if there are 3 healthy men sitting in the back. It warms up quickly, even in cold weather (with auto start) there were no problems. Large roomy trunk. Appearance good, updated Patriots They look like a solid foreign car. The panel is modern, convenient, with many options. Generally, good car, comfortable for Russian roads.
UAZ Patriot, 2014
I have in my use this model The car is already about 2 years old and it has never let me down and I have never doubted the correctness of my choice. It is quite suitable for use not only in urban conditions, but, as practice has shown, in rather difficult to pass areas and especially when traveling outside the city. In principle, I am also satisfied with the configuration. What I especially like are the mirrors, which have a pretty good view. The volume of the trunk and interior is also very pleasing, since the family is large. Ergonomics are also a plus. True, there is no air conditioning, but I'm already used to it. In principle, I don’t think there are any competitors to Patriot.
UAZ Patriot, 2014
I myself am from the Tyumen region, from a small village, and decided to buy myself a good and inexpensive SUV. My choice was the new Patriot and I bought it. I have no complaints about the car, the car is simple but tasteful, good and spacious interior, it starts with half a turn, it drives beautifully on uneven and broken roads, although not quickly, but normally, without shaking. The price for it is also quite normal. The best thing that attracted me to him was that he domestic production, as they say, our car. I am completely satisfied with it, I’ve been driving it for about six months now, without breakdowns or problems.
UAZ Patriot, 2014
I decided to take into account the quality of our roads, as well as my frequent need to drive long distances, where they can hardly be called roads at all, and forked out for a new UAZ Patriot 2014. Advantages: large and roomy interior; due to excellent cross-country ability, we can move through a variety of terrain (now it’s easier to go out into nature); Fuel consumption is not great, but not economy class either; standard alarm, as most of the assembly parts are of good quality. Disadvantages: hinges rear doors It wouldn't hurt to redo it; The price isn't for everyone, but it's worth it. Left, satisfied that I gave preference domestic model, now it will be easier to get spare parts if something happens.
UAZ Patriot, 2014
The choice fell on the UAZ 3163 Patriot because my family and I really like to travel outside the city, to nature and to the country. As you know, roads in the forest are far from ideal. The car copes with them with a bang, the cross-country ability of any route is simply excellent. At the same time, the car does not eat fuel, like someone who doesn’t know. The consumption is quite economical. The interior is spacious, it’s comfortable for children to lie down in it, and what’s more for children, it’s also comfortable for adults. The trunk is also far from small. It easily fits everything for a picnic, fishing supplies, and suitcases. The car looks very powerful and presentable. There’s no shame in driving one like this.
UAZ Patriot, 2014
I recently purchased a UAZ Patriot 3163. I am very pleased with my choice. With this car I can travel all over the world, as this SUV fully justifies its characteristics. The interior trim is made in the same style. Additional seats are exactly the characteristic that made me understand that for my big family this is what you need. In a word, the car is chic. Fully equipped with everything you need. Now any trip, whether to barbecue or to the dacha on any roads, is not a problem for me at all. In operation it is ideal, I only changed the tires to winter ones.
UAZ Patriot, 2014
UAZ Patriot, 2014
I absolutely do not regret the purchase! I have always supported the domestic manufacturer, but my wife persuaded me to buy her a foreign car. As a result, she became the owner of a Chery, and I - a UAZ Patriot (2014). I can say that the difference is strongly felt, down to the smallest detail. My wife - good driver, but she ruined the mechanics of her car in six months. Since the moment I purchased it, I have never taken my car to an ATP, tire shop, etc. The engine is powerful, the car is spacious, the interior is beautiful and well-kept. The car is just right for me. After the purchases, I was once again convinced of the correctness of my own reasoning - they have not yet come up with a better domestic manufacturer.
