The five year ownership cost for a UAZ Patriot SUV is estimated at about one million rubles, a calculation by the Price of Auto site.
For the manual transmission variant, the cost per kilometer comes to 9.80 rubles. Monthly ownership expenses run around 16.4 thousand rubles, and the five year total is 984,245 rubles.
From this amount, fuel accounts for 68 percent or 666,400 rubles, while insurance takes 18 percent. Hull insurance amounts to 118,205 rubles and mandatory third party liability OSAGO comes to 58,996 rubles. The remaining 14 percent covers maintenance at 66,354 rubles, winter tires at 48,040 rubles, and the transport tax at 26,250 rubles.
In contrast, the automatic transmission version leads to higher costs — the per kilometer price is 10 rubles 20 kopecks, and the five year ownership total exceeds one million rubles.
The figures assume a total mileage of 100,000 kilometers over the five years, with operation centered in Moscow and the surrounding region. The driver is 35 years old with ten years of driving experience.
