I-Ford Falcon XR6 Sprint, i-XR8 Sprint ne-HSV GTS 2016

UJoshua Dowling ubuyekeza iFord Falcon XR6 Sprint, XR8 Sprint kanye neHSV GTS ngokusebenza, ukusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli kanye nesinqumo.

Lezi izimoto ezishesha kakhulu nezinamandla kakhulu i-Australia eyake yakhiqiza futhi maduze zizobe zingasekho unomphela.

Ngomoya wangempela wase-Australia, abakhiqizi bawo babegcina i-accelerator ezinzwaneni zabo njengoba besondela entanjeni.

I-Ford - ngokuphambene nenkolelo evamile, inkampani yezimoto endala kunazo zonke yase-Australia futhi esebenze isikhathi eside - izenzele isipho yona nakubalandeli bayo.

Ukuze kukhunjulwe iminyaka engu-91 yokukhiqizwa kwasekhaya, okuhlanganisa iminyaka engu-56 e-Broadmeadows, i-Ford ivumele onjiniyela bayo bakhe i-Falcon ababehlale befuna ukuyakha.

I-XR6 Sprint ene-turbocharged ne-XR8 Sprint ene-supercharged, zombili ezinikezwa amandla izinjini ezihlanganiswe e-Geelong, kuwumvuthwandaba wamashumi eminyaka olwazi.

Uphiko lwezimoto ezisheshayo zakwa-Holden, ngosizo oluncane oluvela ku-V8 yaseMelika eshajwe kakhulu, kuvuselele ukubukeka kwe-flagship yayo yokusebenza i-HSV GTS ngaphambi kokukhipha okuthile okungajwayelekile ngempela ngonyaka ozayo.

Nokho, okwamanje lezi zimoto zihamba phambili ngohlobo lwazo, zilethela abantu abafayo imali eyengeziwe ngedola ngalinye kunanoma iyiphi enye indawo emhlabeni.

Sekuyisikhathi sokuthi sibone ukuthi yini esizobe sishoda ngayo uma amaqhawe akithi eshintshwa izimoto ezine-cylinder, ezine-V6.

I-Falcon XR6 Sprint

Ngokuvuma kukaFord uqobo, izelamani zakwaSprint "zakhelwe abathanda abathanda".

Izinguquko zidlulela ngalé kwezinto ezicashile zangaphandle namabheji amnyama.

Ukumiswa nokuqondisa kulungiswe kabusha ukuze kuthuthukiswe amathayi e-Pirelli P Zero (uhlobo olufanayo olutholakala ku-Ferrari, i-Porsche ne-Lamborghini) futhi i-Ford ayishiyanga lutho eshalofini eliyisipele ngokufaka umjaho wamabhuleki angama-piston ayisithupha ngaphambili kanye nama-brake caliper angama-piston amane. . ama-piston calipers angemuva.

Bese "ephefumulela" enjinini, ekhuluma ngolimi.

Onjiniyela bakwaFord bayayazi injini engu-4.0 litre six-cylinder njengengemuva lesandla sabo. Ama-six aklanywe endaweni futhi akhiwe aqondile abekwi-Falcon kusukela kwethulwa eyokuqala ngo-1960.

Injini enamasilinda ayisithupha ene-turbo ivele ngengozi. Ngasekupheleni kwawo-1990, iFord Australia yacabanga ukuthi inkathi ye-Falcon V8 ingase ifike esiphethweni futhi; isikhathi eside kungekho okusobala okuzovala indawo ye-Canadian 5.0-litre V8 Windsor, ezonqanyulwa ngo-2002.

Ngakho iFord Australia yakha ngasese i-turbo-six njengesipele.

I-turbo six ibonakale ingcono kunebekubhekwe ngabakwaFord: ishesha futhi isebenza kahle kune-V8, futhi ilula phezu kwekhala, okuthuthukise ibhalansi yemoto nokuzwakala kwamakhona.

Lapho iDetroit igcina inikeze imvume yokuthola enye i-V8 (yaseMelika, kodwa eyakhiwe endaweni, i-5.4-litre overhead cam V8 ebizwa ngokuthi "Boss"), abakwaFord Australia banquma ukuthi banganikela ngama-turbocharged ayisithupha, njengoba yayisivele yenze iningi lazo. umsebenzi wokuthuthukisa.

I-Turbo Six yaqala ukudayiswa ne-BA Falcon ngo-2002 futhi isilokhu inathi kusukela ngaleso sikhathi.

Yize iyinjini ehamba phambili kweyake yakhiqizwa yi-Australia, ayikaze idayiswe njengeV8. Nakuba ama-turbocharged ayisithupha ekhangayo, abathengi bezimoto zemisipha balangazelela ukuduma kweV8.

Abalandeli be-die-hard bahlala bakuthola kunzima ukukukholelwa lokhu, kodwa izinombolo aziqambi amanga. I-turbo six isashesha kakhulu kune-V8, ngisho naku-Sprint guise (bona ngezansi).

Nalu olunye uphawu: kuyilapho amandla engaphansi kancane (325kW uma kuqhathaniswa ne-V8's 345kW enamandla kakhulu), i-XR6 Turbo Sprint idlula i-XR8 Sprint nge-torque engu-1Nm ukusuka ku-576Nm. Ubani owathi onjiniyela abaqhudelani?

Amandla e-Turbo alayini kakhulu kune-V8 kulo lonke uhla lwe-rev. Phakathi kokushintshwa kwamagiya, kuzwakala umsindo othi “brrrp” ocashile.

Ukungenelela okuncane ngezikhathi ezithile kwesistimu yokulawula ukuzinza emgwaqeni omncane futhi onzima ukuphela kwento enesibindi sokwehlisa i-XR6 Turbo Sprint.

Kuyajabulisa ukushayela futhi kuzwakala njengemoto yezemidlalo kunesedan.

Akukho okudlula lokhu. Kuze kube yilapho sidlulela ku-XR8.

I-Falcon XR8 Sprint

Nakuba i-core yenjini ye-XR8 yenziwa e-USA, zonke izingxenye zangaphakathi, kuhlanganise ne-supercharger, zihlanganiswe ndawonye e-Geelong kanye nolayini wokuhlanganisa wamasilinda ayisithupha.

Empeleni iyinjini efanayo neye-Falcon GT yakamuva, kodwa iFord ishiye ngamabomu igebe lokusebenza kusithonjana sayo.

I-XR8 Sprint inamandla amancane kune-GT (345kW vs 351kW) kodwa i-torque engaphezulu (575Nm vs 569Nm).

Kodwa lokho kubonakale kuyiphuzu elilula, ngoba ngazo zonke izibuyekezo, i-XR8 Sprint igibela kangcono kune-GT yokugcina. Isithonjana kuphela esingekho.

Sibonga kakhulu ngamathayi e-Pirelli angcono kakhulu, i-XR Sprint icaba imigwaqo enezihibe futhi ibambe amakhona kangcono kunanoma iyiphi enye i-Falcon ngaphambi kwayo.

Ukukhala kwe-supercharger kukhulu. Inomsindo kakhulu yenza iqolo lakho linkeneneze namadlebe.

I-XR8 inomsindo omncane uma iqhathaniswa ne-XR6, kodwa uma isifike ku-4000 rpm isilungile.

Umsindo omkhulu wenza umsindo usheshe kunalokho oyikho ngempela (njengoba sithole ngokufaka imishini yesikhathi emshinini), kodwa ubani onendaba?

Nokho, kuvela ukuthi ungaba nento enhle kakhulu. Ukukhala kwe-supercharger kuqala ukungingiza emakhoneni aqinile nasontekile njengoba i-V8 idlula ukudonsa kwesondo nokulawula ukuzinza kungena.

Ukulwa ne-XR8 ukhuphuka udlula intaba emazombezombe kukwenza uzizwe sengathi unqobe udonga olukhuphukayo. Kuthatha konke ukugxilisa ingqondo yakho, kodwa umvuzo mkhulu.

Akukho okudlula lokhu. Kuze kube yilapho sishaya i-HSV GTS.

I-HSV GTS

I-HSV GTS ngokushesha iba ngokunethezeka kakhulu lapho nje ungena kuyo.

Ikhabhinethi inomuzwa osesitayeleni, futhi imoto inobuchwepheshe obengeziwe, okuhlanganisa ukhiye wokuthinta, isibonisi esibheke phezulu, amaswishi esiteringini, izibonisi ezinokulungiswa okuphezulu, izixwayiso zokuhamba ngomzila, kanye ne-suspension elungisekayo, isilawuli sokuzinza, nezindlela zokukhipha umoya. .

I-GTS ingathanda ukuba namanye amagajethi engeziwe kuleli phuzu lentengo: $98,490, iprimiyamu engu-$36,300 kuya ku-$43,500 kumaFord asheshayo.

Kodwa i-GTS nayo izwa sengathi kunemali etshalwe kuyo.

Emgwaqeni, inamathela njengokuhlafuna ushingamu kumcamelo wesihlalo setiyetha yefilimu.

I-chassis ungayizwa ngesihlalo sebhulukwe kanye nesiteringi, ngaphezu kweFalcon. Ngemva kokuhlala ezihlalweni eziphezulu zakwa-Ford, uzozwa sengathi isinqe sakho simayintshi ambalwa ukusuka emgwaqeni.

Sishayele i-GTS eshajwe kakhulu izikhathi eziningi kule minyaka emithathu edlule, okuhlanganisa ukusuka embonini ye-HSV e-Clayton kuya e-Mount Bathurst Panorama.

Kepha angikaze ngiyijabulele noma ngayithokozela i-GTS ngendlela engenze ngayo kulokhu kuhlolwa.

I-GTS iyisilo esinzima, kodwa iphatha kalula ibhande lethu elincane lomgwaqo esikhuphuka unqenqema lwentaba.

Ubuso bushelelezi, kodwa amakhona aqinile, futhi i-GTS ayinakuphepheka ngokuphelele. Izwakala incane kunalokho eyikho ngenxa ye-suspension ekhethwe kahle, amabhuleki amahle kakhulu (enkulu kunawo wonke ake afakwa emotweni yokukhiqiza yase-Australia) kanye nesiteringi esithambile.

Elinye ikhadi lecilongo eliphezu komkhono we-HSV i-V8 ye-LSA eshajwe kakhulu. Kufana nenhlanganisela yazo zombili izinjini zakwa-Ford: ukuvungama okwanele kuma-revs aphansi (njenge-XR6) nokuklabalasa ngama-rev aphezulu (njenge-XR8).

Kuyamangalisa futhi ngiyacwebezela - kuze kuphele umgwaqo.

Ukuduma kwe-adrenaline nomsindo we-tee-ting-ting wezingxenye zokupholisa ngemuva ngokushesha kungigcwalisa ngokudabuka.

Ngeke sisakha imishini enjalo.

Isinqumo

Imiphumela yalokhu kuhlolwa kwezinhlangothi ngeyezemfundo ngoba lezi zimoto zenzelwe ukuthi zihlale ziqinile, kanti kulo mdlalo osuphelile ngeke ujikise muntu.

Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi yikuphi, izinga lethu lihlelwa ngendlela efanayo ngesivinini, i-HSV GTS isendaweni yokuqala, i-XR6 Turbo endaweni yesibili, kanye ne-XR8 endaweni yesithathu.

Sithanda imoto ngayinye yalezi zimoto hhayi nje ngesivinini sazo esingu-0 kuye ku-100 mph, kodwa nokuthi zivuthwe kangakanani ezibamba amakhona aqinile kanye nemigwaqo evulekile ebanzi.

Izindaba ezimbi ukuthi abekho ngempela abawinile; zontathu izimoto zishona phansi.

Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi noma ngubani othenga enye yalezi zinhlobo zesikhathi esizayo ngeke alahlekelwe.

Uhamba ngesivinini esingakanani manje?

I-Ford ayikhiphi izikhathi ezingu-0-kph ezisemthethweni, kodwa onjiniyela bakholelwa ukuthi ungakwazi ukukhama imizuzwana engu-100 ku-XR4.5 Turbo kanye ne-6 ku-XR4.6 - sishaye imizuzwana engu-8 kuzo zombili izinhlobo emigwaqweni yaseTasmania ngo-March. Manje sesiqala ukuzibuza ukuthi ngabe umgwaqo esiwusebenzisile wawukwehle yini.

Kulesi siqhathaniso, sizivivinye zontathu izimoto zishiyana ngemizuzu engama-30 endaweni eyodwa yomgwaqo eSydney Dragway.

Ngenkathi i-HSV ifuna isikhathi esingu-0-100 mph ku-GTS kumasekhondi angu-4.4, sithole amasekhondi amane angu-4.6 kumaphasi amane okuqala alandelanayo, sithuthuka kokuhamba phambili kwethu kwangaphambili kwamasekhondi angu-4.7 ngo-2013.

I-XR6 Turbo ikhiphe amalitha angu-4.9 litres isuka ebhethini yase yehlisa ijubane njengoba injini ibicwile ngenxa yokushisa.

I-XR8 izame kaningi ukuthi ifinyelele ku-5.1s ngoba ibilokhu ifuna ukuthosa amasondo angemuva. Siwuhoxise umsebenzi ngesikhathi sizwa ukuthi amathayi ashibilika ukuze injini ingashisi ngokweqile futhi isiphazamise.

Akuthina sodwa abangakasondeli ekutheni iFord ikhiphe i-0 iye ku-100 km/h. Iphephabhuku lezimoto zezemidlalo lithole izinombolo ezifanayo ezinganeni zakwa-Sprint (5.01 ye-XR6 kanye ne-5.07 ye-XR8) ngezinsuku ezahlukene nangaphandle kwezwe.

Ngakho-ke, abalandeli beFord, qaphelani ubuthi benu namakhibhodi enu. Senze umzamo omkhulu ukuze sizuze okuningi kuma-XR Sprints. Futhi ngaphambi kokuba ningibeke icala ngokuchema, ngizoninika indaba egcwele: imoto yami yokugcina entsha kwakuyiFord.

Nazi izinombolo ngezansi. Izinga lokushisa le-ambient lalilungile - ama-degrees Celsius angu-18. Sifake ukufundwa kwe-odometer emotweni ngayinye, okubonisa ukuthi kugqekeziwe. Ngokwentshisekelo yokulingana, zonke izimoto zazinomshini ozishintshayo. Njengoba izinombolo zibonisa, i-HSV GTS ishesha ukuya ku-60 km/h futhi ivele iqale lapho.

Kuzophela nini?

Imboni yenjini nefa yakwaFord e-Geelong kanye nolayini wokuhlanganisa izimoto e-Broadmeadows izovalwa ngo-Okthoba 7, kuphele iminyaka engu-92 yokukhiqizwa kwendawo kwe-blue oval marque.

Ngeshwa, lolo suku lungoLwesihlanu ngaphambi komjaho wezimoto we-Bathurst osize uFord noFalcon ukuthi benze uphawu lwabo.

U-Holden Commodore usenezinyanga ezingaba ngu-12 ukuthi kuphele imboni yakwaFord.

Ulayini wokukhiqiza we-Holden's Elizabeth kulindeleke ukuthi uvalwe ekupheleni kuka-2017, okulandelwa ukuvalwa kwemboni ye-Toyota Camry e-Alton, okuyindawo okwazalelwa kuyo ukuphela kwemoto eyi-hybrid ehlanganiswe endaweni, ngoDisemba 2017.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-HSV ithi izoqhubeka nokusebenza ngaphandle kwesikhungo sayo i-Clayton, kodwa esikhundleni salokho izongeza izingxenye zemikhumbi futhi yenze umsebenzi wobuhle ezimotweni ezifanelekile zakwa-Holden.
