Шины на Daewoo Damas (Даевоо)

Mass production of the Daewoo Damas began in 1991. The model represented a licensed version of the compact Japanese commercial vehicle Suzuki Carry and its related Suzuki Every. Serial production was launched at the facilities of Daewoo Motors, and later continued under the management of GM Uzbekistan. The small van became one of the most affordable and practical vehicles for small businesses in Asian and Eastern European countries. Its design combines the simple engineering architecture of the Japanese kei-car with adaptation to the markets of developing countries.

Features of the layout

The car was created on the platform of the eighth generation Suzuki Carry/Every, however, the Korean version received a number of simplifications and improvements aimed at reducing production costs and improving maintainability. The body is a compact single-volume van with short overhangs and maximum rational use of interior space.

The length is approximately 3.2 meters, which allows for easy maneuvering in dense urban neighborhoods and narrow streets. The high roof and vertical side panels provide a surprisingly spacious salon. In the passenger version, it is possible to accommodate up to seven people, and in the cargo modification, a significant part of the space is converted into a practical compartment for transporting goods. Unlike Japanese analogues, the Daewoo Damas was initially focused on markets without strict kei-car segment restrictions, so some versions received a strengthened suspension and a simpler configuration.

Under the floor of the salon is a compact 3-cylinder petrol engine with a volume of about 0.8 liters, developing 40 horsepower. Despite the modest power figures, the engine provides sufficient traction for the light van, especially in urban operating conditions. The engine works in conjunction with a 5-speed manual transmission, transmitting torque to the rear axle. Such a layout is characteristic of many Japanese microvans and provides good traction when fully loaded. Compared to the Suzuki Carry and Every, the Korean version differs in a simpler power unit setting and a simplified engine management system. This made it possible to reduce maintenance costs and increase reliability when operating in regions with less developed service infrastructure.

The front suspension is made according to the scheme of independent levers with spiral springs, while the rear axle uses a dependent design with leaf springs. Such a layout provides sufficient payload capacity with minimal complexity of the design. The small mass of the car - about 700-800 kg - makes it quite economical. Fuel consumption is usually in the range of 6-7 liters per 100 kilometers. For small businesses, this is one of the key factors in the attractiveness of the model. The braking system includes front disc and rear drum mechanisms. Although the level of equipment remains basic, the simplicity of the design makes the Damas convenient to maintain and repair.

Interior and functional capabilities

The salon stood out with minimalist equipment. The instrument panel is compact and contains only the main indicators and analog scales. However, the thoughtful seating and large glazing area provide good visibility - an important factor for urban transportation. The seats are located high, which makes it easier to board and disembark passengers. In the cargo version, both rear rows fold down, forming a flat platform for placing goods. Sliding side doors make loading convenient even in limited space. Compared to Japanese analogues, the Damas interior is distinguished by a simpler trim and less electronic equipment. It was this practicality that became one of the factors in the model's prolonged popularity, along with its small dimensions and low cost, which made it an excellent solution for delivery services, small shops, and private entrepreneurs. The car is often used as a route taxi, urban cargo van, or mobile trading point. Simple mechanics, an economical engine, and high maneuverability have made the "Damas" one of the most massive microvans in a number of countries.

The factory configuration implies the use of disks with a landing diameter of 12 inches and tires with a sufficiently high profile - 145/80 R12. Such wheels provide an optimal balance between maneuverability, payload capacity, and economy. In the online store "Mosavtoshina" you can choose the right tires and disks for this model, focusing on the operating conditions and the owner's budget.
