🚗 Armoring a Mazda 2: Feasibility and Considerations

Enrique discusses the impracticality of armoring a Mazda 2 due to its small size and the potential strain on its 1.5L engine when weighted down by armor. He estimates an increase in weight of at least 150 kg to 300 kg, which would significantly affect performance and fuel consumption. Enrique suggests that for armoring, larger vehicles with more powerful engines (3.0L or above) and robust suspensions are more suitable. He also addresses the reputation of the Renault Quid, noting that while it's not a bad car, it has developed a negative reputation due to issues like oil leaks and vibrations beyond 50,000 to 60,000 km. Enrique emphasizes that no car is perfect and that personal experiences may vary.

📊 Market Performance and Fuel Efficiency of Mitsubishi

The discussion shifts to Mitsubishi's commercial performance in Colombia, where only the Montero models have been successful. Enrique shares his limited experience with the fuel efficiency of Mitsubishi vehicles, estimating around 22-23 km per gallon for the 3.0L engine and 30-35 km per gallon for the 2.4L engine in urban settings. He advises that while smaller engines can be economical, they may not always provide good fuel consumption, especially when overloaded. Carlos's query about transitioning from a motorcycle to a car like the Suzuki Alto, which is known for its fuel efficiency and reliability, is addressed with caution. Enrique warns that the Alto's performance may degrade if it's overloaded, suggesting it's suitable for light use only.

💡Armored Cars

Armored cars are vehicles that have been reinforced to protect against bullets and other potential threats. In the script, Enrique discusses the impracticality of armoring a Mazda 2 due to the significant weight increase from armoring, which can be around 150-300 kg, and the insufficient engine power to handle such weight, especially for a small car like the Mazda 2.

💡Fuel Consumption

Fuel consumption refers to the amount of fuel used by an engine or vehicle over a certain distance. The script mentions that armoring a car like the Mazda 2 would increase its weight, leading to higher fuel consumption. Enrique estimates that the car might go from approximately 40 km per gallon to around 30 km per gallon when fully loaded.

💡Engine Power

Engine power is the rate at which an engine can do work, usually measured in horsepower. The script discusses the inadequacy of a 1.5L engine in an armored Mazda 2 and suggests that for a car to be armored, it would be better to have an engine of at least 3 or 3.5 liters for better performance.

💡Suspension

Suspension refers to the system of springs, shock absorbers, and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels. Enrique points out that the suspension of Mazda, like that of Kia, is not the best for carrying heavy loads, which would be the case with an armored car, implying that it might not be robust or durable enough.

💡Vehicle Reliability

Vehicle reliability is the ability of a vehicle to perform consistently over time without breakdowns or failures. The script mentions the Renault Quid's reputation for developing issues after a certain mileage, such as oil leaks and vibrations, which affects its reliability and makes it less recommendable for long-term use.

Mitsubishi is a Japanese automaker. In the script, Enrique talks about the commercial performance of Mitsubishi cars in Colombia, noting that most of their models are not doing well commercially, with the exception of the Montero and Montero Sport, which have better sales.

💡Suzuki Alto

The Suzuki Alto is a compact car known for its small engine and fuel efficiency. The script discusses the Alto's suitability for city driving and its limitations when carrying more weight or passengers, which can affect its performance and reliability.

💡Car Reselling

Car reselling involves buying a car and selling it later for a profit. Enrique warns about the difficulties of this business, emphasizing the importance of choosing reliable and commercially attractive vehicles like the Mazda 2, K-Piccanto, and Spark to maximize the chances of making a profit.
