Exterior

If we take modern measurements, then, of course, the appearance of Chance is a bit boring. The model has received rounded body shapes, which are similar in style to the droplets of the front and rear headlights.

The exterior has stepped forward, making the ZAZ a more modern car. Body made of solid metal, bearing type. Looks nice, and fitting of body parts and panels is not bad. The 17 mm clearance allows easy swallowing of light pits and potholes. The set includes small wheels R13-R14.

Interior

ZAZ Chance bought some other chairs. The seats now have side support. However, the steering wheel still has no adjustment in terms of both outreach and height. Objectively speaking, the car does not have a lot of free space and that is why it may not be very comfortable for tall people both behind the wheel and on passenger seats.

The entire front panel is made of hard plastic, as well as the front card trim. The panel is poured out of a monolithic piece, which throws away all squeaks that are not even present on a mileage car. In the basic version of the mirror are adjusted manually and there are no electric window lifters. Going to the rear seats you can see that there is a lot of room for height and knees.

But two middle-sized people will feel quite comfortable. The driver’s seat is not adjustable in height, but only in length. The controls have been given their logical location. Additional air ducts for the rear passengers made him happy, which undoubtedly makes him a compliment.
