I-Bentley Continental GT V8 S 2015 обзор

Eyethulwe emhlabeni wezimoto ngo-2003, i-Continental GT isifike indilinga ephelele nge-V8 S okuhloswe ngayo ukuheha izethameli ezintsha kumkhiqizo waseBrithani.

Isikhalo salo mkhiqizo siyaqhubeka nokukhula emhlabeni wonke unyaka nonyaka, ikakhulukazi ezimakethe ezisafufusa ezifana ne-India, China kanye ne-Middle East, ezibone ukukhula ngamaphesenti angama-45 okuthengiswayo ngonyaka odlule uma kuqhathaniswa no-2012.

I-Bentley Continental GT V8 S ifike e-Australia ngenyanga edlule ne-swagger entsha sha, isilungele ukuthatha uhlobo olusha lwekhasimende.

I-GT yakamuva iphefumule umlilo nempilo yabuyela ohlwini ngenjini ebuyekeziwe kanye nogesi omusha we-ZF onamagiya ayisishiyagalombili esiguqule i-GT yakamuva yaba imoto yezemidlalo esezingeni eliphezulu ngentengo egculisayo. Nokho, kunengqondo ngaphezu kwentengo yemodeli ye-W12 V12.

Ngamandla engeziwe, ukumiswa kwezemidlalo, isiteringi esibukhali namandla okubhuleka amangalisayo, izinketho eziguqukayo kanye ne-coupe zinikeza umuzwa wangempela wobukhazikhazi kanye nokuthakazelisa ngentengo ekhangayo.

Design

Umumo we-Continental GT uqhubekile nokushintsha ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, ngaphandle kwezinguquko ezinkulu ku-coupe noma izinguqulo eziguqulekayo.

Ijika lesici elisuka ngemuva kwesicabha sangaphambili lilandela umkhonto wamathanga akhe angemuva, ligcine kumalambu angemuva. Lona umklamo ongashintshi kulo lonke uhla, ochaza isitayela esinolaka kodwa esihle se-Continental GT.

Ipendwe nge-Monaco Ephuzi, le V8 S ayiphenduki nsomi.

Ipendwe nge-Monaco Ephuzi, le V8 S ayiphenduki nsomi. Izithombe zethu zibonisa ukuthi lo mbala ugqame kangakanani empilweni yangempela njengoba ugqama ezingadini ezilungiswe kahle kanye nengaphandle elimhlophe le-Yering Castle e-Victoria's Yarra Valley.

Upende ophuzi ogqamile ugcizelelwa kuphela i-beluga (emnyama okucwebezelayo) igrille yangaphambili kanye nesitayela somzimba esiphansi esiza ukuhlukanisa le GT yangokwezifiso ye-Continental kunezinye.

"I-Lower Body Style Specification" iqukethe amaseyili aseceleni, isihlukanisi sangaphambili, nesihlukanisi sangemuva esihlanganayo ukuze sinciphise ukuphakamisa uhlangothi lwangaphambili futhi sinikeze ukuzinza okukhulu ngesivinini esiphezulu.

Uma usuka eceleni, ukwakheka komzimba kanye namasondo ayi-21-inch black diamond acwebezelayo adonsa amehlo.

Izinga le-suspension ne-spring rate nalo libuyekeziwe, i-V8 S yehliswa ngo-10mm kwathi ama-springs aqina ngo-45% ngaphambili kwathi ngemuva aqina ngo-33%. Le roll yomzimba enciphe kakhulu futhi inciphe kakhulu ihood noma i-front end roll ngaphansi kwezimo zokubhuleka okuqinile.

Amathayi ePirelli P-Zero asebenze kahle kuzo zombili izimo ezimanzi nezomile ezindaweni eziphakeme zaseVictoria. Amasondo angu-21-intshi ahambisana kahle nephakeji lemidlalo elithuthukisiwe lokumiswa kanye nokubamba, anikeze impendulo eminingi kanye nokudonsa, ikakhulukazi emigwaqweni yasemaphandleni enamagquma futhi ngezinye izikhathi enezikhisi.

Njengenketho, i-Bentley ingafaka ama-rotor amakhulu e-carbon-ceramic anama-brake caliper abomvu. Ukuthuthukiswa kwamabhuleki kuyabiza, nakuba imali isetshenziswe kahle uma ucabangela ukuthi bangakwazi ukufaka i-Bentley engu-2265kg ngokuphindaphindiwe ngaphandle kokukhononda okuncane kanye nokungagugi kwamabhuleki.

Ukhiye ucezu lobuciko futhi ngokuvamile abakhiqizi abaningi abanakwa.

Isistimu yokukhipha umoya we-chrome-plated sports exhaust yengeza ukubukeka okuhle ngemuva kwemoto, kuyilapho ingeza ukukhala okujulile, okunomsindo ozwakalayo ekhabini lapho injini ye-V8 ene-twin-turbocharged iqala ukucula.

Izici

Ukuze uvule umnyango, kufanele uqale ngokuwuvula ngokhiye wakho we-Bentley. Isihluthulelo umsebenzi wobuciko futhi ngokuvamile awanakwa abakhiqizi abaningi. Iklanywe kahle inomuzwa osindayo, obizayo. Ngazama kakhulu ukuthi ngingayilahli.

Cindezela inkinobho ukuze uvule umnyango womshayeli futhi uzobingelelwa ngokushesha ikhabethe elicebile nelimiswe kahle. Nakuba isimanjemanje, isagubuzelwe umlando namagugu okungatholakala kuphela ngemoto esezingeni eliphezulu.

Izinga eliphezulu lobungcweti liyabonakala kulo lonke ikhabethe futhi akukho mininingwane eshiywe ingakathintwa.

Izinkinobho ze-Chromed nezishintshi zinomuzwa ohlukile wekhwalithi, kuyilapho i-carbon fiber isetshenziselwa ukugqamisa ifa lemijaho yomkhiqizo. Kukhona ukusikisela okuncane kwethonya lakwaVolkswagen kudeshibhodi, nakuba akwanele ukungabaza umuzwa wemoto iyonke.

Izihlalo zesikhumba eziboshwe ngesandla, ezithungwe ngedayimane zinikeza ukwesekwa futhi zibukeka zizinhle ngelogo ye-Bentley ehlotshiswe ngokuziqhenya kukhanda ngalinye kwamane. Izihlalo zomshayeli nezabagibeli bangaphambili zifakwe izinto zokushisisa nokubhucunga, ogcizelela ukubaluleka kokunethezeka ukuba yinto ehamba phambili.

Ngezivinini zemigwaqo emikhulu, ikhabethe lithule ngendlela emangalisayo, lithule futhi.

Izihlalo, ideshibhodi, isiteringi nama-paddle shifters agqizwe ngesikhumba zithungwe ngesandla ngombala ophuzi we-monaco, onika umbala othintwayo ezindaweni zangaphakathi ezimnyama neziwubukhazikhazi.

Ezivakashini ezinde ezihlezi ngemuva, izihlalo zinikeza ukunethezeka okuningi, nakuba singekho indawo eningi yomlenze ngisho nezihlalo zangaphambili ziyiswe phambili.

Ngezivinini zomgwaqo omkhulu, ikhabethe lithule ngendlela emangalisayo, lithule ngokulinganayo. Okhaphethi benqwaba ejulile, amafasitela engilazi elayiniwe nezinto ezimunca umsindo kugcina umsindo wangaphandle ube uncane kakhulu.

Isistimu yokuzikhethela ye-NAIM 14K ye-audiophile iziqhayisa ngezipikha ezingu-11 namashaneli omsindo angu-15 akhiqiza kabusha umsindo wetiyetha omangalisayo ngama-acoustics e-Sydney Opera House.

Injini / Ukudlulisa

Amandla enjini esuka enjinini engu-4.0 litre, 32-valve, twin-turbocharged V8 anyuke ngo-16 kW afinyelela ku-389 hp. I-torque engu-680 Nm itholakala ngesivinini esiphansi esingu-1700 rpm ngenxa yokusethwa kwe-V8 ene-twin-turbocharged.

Amandla athunyelwa kuwo wonke amasondo amane asabalaliswe phezu kweplatifomu eyi-all-wheel drive (AWD). Ngamandla okusabalalisa amasondo angemuva angu-40:60, i-V8 S ikunikeza umuzwa wokuphila onamasondo angemuva uma uqala kanzima namakhona asontekile aqinile.

Uma ungumnikazi we-Bentley, akudingeki ukhathazeke ngezindleko zikaphethiloli, kodwa kunalokho ukuthi uvakashela kangaki isiteshi sesevisi yangakini. Ukuze udambise ukwesaba kwakho, iBentley isebenzise ubuchwepheshe bokushintsha ama-valve obuvala amasilinda amane kwayisishiyagalombili, okusiza ukonga uphethiloli nokwenza ngcono ukonga kukaphethiloli ngamaphesenti ayisishiyagalombili.

Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ikumodi ye-Auto noma ye-Sport, i-ZF 8-speed transmission iletha okuhlanzekile, nokushintshashintsha okunembile. Iyunithi entsha ye-ZF ibukeka njenge-dual clutch system kune-auto automatic transmission.

Izigwedlo ezisongwe ngesikhumba, ezithungwe ngesandla zilungele izandla ezinkulu njengezami futhi zitholakala ngemuva kwesiteringi futhi zinamathiselwe kukholamu.

Ukuba neBentley kuwukukhetha indlela yokuphila, isinqumo esizokucwilisa ekunethezweni nasekucebeni. Ukuba nemoto enjalo kuwumvuzo weminyaka yokusebenza kanzima nokuzinikela, iphuzu elingalahleki kimina noma eqenjini lami.

I-Continental GT V8 S iwumcimbi wokubungaza okuhle kakhulu i-Bentley okufanele ikunikeze ngohambo oluyingqayizivele, lwesimanjemanje, olwakhiwe ngesandla olungashayelwa nsuku zonke noma zonke izinsuku.

Eminyakeni eyishumi nanye ngemva kokwethulwa kwe-Continental GT yokuqala, le nguqulo iletha ukubukeka okuhle, kwezemidlalo ohlwini olukhula njalo lwe-GT olunokuphathwa okuthuthukisiwe nokusebenza okuthuthukisiwe. Noma yimaphi amaphutha asheshe ashaywe indiva ikhwalithi nobunkimbinkimbi obunganikezwa yiBentley kuphela ezimotweni zayo ezihamba phambili.

Nakuba i-Bentley yabelana ngezingxenye nezici ezimbalwa ku-Volkswagen Group, kuyadida ukuqonda ukuthi kungani bengazifakanga ezinye zezici ezithuthuke kakhulu njengomsizi wokugcinwa komzila, i-radar cruise control kanye ne-autopilot parking etholakala kalula futhi ehloliwe. izimoto ezishibhile. izimoto.

Ingase ingabi nakho ukushayela kwe-Porsche 911 noma amakhono aphezulu e-Bugatti Veyron, kodwa i-Bentley inikeze le moto ubuntu obuzokukhuthaza ukuthi ushayele kanzima futhi uhlale uhlola amathuba e-V8 S.
