Isimanga saseKorea: UKia Stinger
Ngakho-ke, eminyakeni engaphezu kweyishumi edlule bathola umklami odumile emhlabeni uPeter Schreyer. Waduma ngomsebenzi wakhe kwi-Audi yaseJalimane, kwathi ngo-2006 wanikela ngezemidlalo i-Audi TT emphakathini womhlaba. Ngaleso sikhathi, ukwethula imoto enomklamo othakazelisa kangako bekuyisinyathelo esinesibindi hhayi i-Audi elandelanayo nje kuphela, kodwa nayo yonke imboni yezimoto.
Ngawo lowo nyaka, Schreyer wathuthela Kia Korean futhi wahola umnyango design. Imiphumela yaba ngaphezu kwesilinganiso kanti uKia uhlabeke umxhwele ngaye kangangokuthi ngo-2012 wathola indondo ekhethekile ngomsebenzi wakhe wokuklama - wakhushulelwa omunye wabantu abathathu abahamba phambili kulo mkhiqizo.
Kodwa-ke, ukusebenza kwabakhathazekile baseKorea, okuhlanganisa imikhiqizo yakwaHyundai neKia, akukapheli. ESchreyer, babewunakekela lo mklamo, kepha futhi kwakudingeka banakekele i-chassis kanye namandla okushayela. Lapha, abaseKorea bathathe igxathu elikhulu futhi bayengela ezingeni labo u-Albert Biermann, indoda eyayisebenze eGerman BMW noma eMnyangweni wayo wezeMidlalo iminyaka engaphezu kwamashumi amathathu.
Futhi ukuthuthukiswa kwemoto yezemidlalo kungaqala. Yebo, kwaqala phambilini, njengoba ucwaningo lweGT, olwethulwa okokuqala ngabakwaKia embukisweni wezimoto waseFrankfurt ngo-2011, lwahlangana nempendulo enhle ngokungalindelekile. Ngokushesha ngemuva kwalokho, wafunwa futhi ngabantu baseMelika embukisweni wabo weLos Angeles Auto Show, ababenentshiseko enkulu ngemoto. Isinqumo sokwenza imoto yezemidlalo besingenzima nakancane.
Manje singaqinisekisa ukuthi i-Stinger, imoto yesitoko eyavela ocwaningweni lwe-GT, iyimoto engcono kakhulu eyake yenziwa yifektri yaseKorea. Imoto ihlaba umxhwele ngomklamo wayo, futhi ngisho nangaphezulu ngokusebenza kwayo kokushayela, ukusebenza futhi, ekugcineni, umklamo wokugcina. Lona ummeleli weqiniso wama-limousine ezemidlalo, "gran turismo" ngomqondo ogcwele wegama.
Kakade ngokwedizayini kuyacaca ukuthi lena yimoto eguqukayo nesheshayo. Isitayela se-coupe futhi inongwe ngezinto ze-sporty okwenza kube nzima kumuntu obukele ukuthi akhethe ukuthi uthanda ingaphambili noma ingemuva lemoto. Ingaphakathi liyisimanga esikhulu nakakhulu. Izinto zokwakha zinhle kakhulu, kanjalo ne-ergonomics, futhi isimanga sekilasi lokuqala ukuvikela umsindo kwegumbi labagibeli. Isicaba saseKorea asisekho, imoto iminyene, futhi izwakala uma uvala isicabha somshayeli.
Ukucindezela inkinobho yokuqala injini kunikeza okuthile esingakujwayele ezimotweni zaseMpumalanga Ekude. Injini engu-3,3 litre six-cylinder kaphethiloli iyaduma, imoto inyakaza isasasa futhi ithi isilungele ukugibela okujabulisayo. Idatha ephepheni isivele ithembisa - injini ene-six-cylinder ene-turbocharged "amahhashi" angu-370, okuqinisekisa ukusheshisa ukusuka ekumisweni kuya kumakhilomitha angu-100 ngehora ngemizuzwana engu-4,9 nje. Nakuba ingakabi yonke imininingwane esemthethweni okwamanje, amaKorea abonise ukuthi ukusheshisa kwamanje (savivinya izimoto zangaphambi kokukhiqiza) kuphelela ku-270 km ngehora kuphela, okwenza i-Stinger ibe enye yezimoto ezisheshayo ekilasini layo. Ingabe bekuphephile ukushayela ngesivinini esingaka?
Njengoba unikezwe amadrayivu wokuhlola, ngokungaqondakali. Ukuthuthukiswa kwemoto kwenzeka nasesihogweni esiluhlaza, okungukuthi, eNurburgring edumile. Baqede okungenani ama-laps angama-480 kuhlobo ngalunye lwe-Stinger. Lokhu kusho amakhilomitha ayi-10 ngokushesha, okulingana nokugijima okungu-160 XNUMX km ngemodi ejwayelekile. Wonke ama-Stingers akwenze ngaphandle kwezinkinga noma ama-glitches.
Ngenxa yalokho, izintatheli ezikhethiwe nazo zahlola i-Stinger endaweni yayo yemvelo. Ngakho-ke, mayelana neNürburgring esabekayo. Futhi asizange sishayele ngokushesha kangaka isikhathi eside, kodwa ngesikhathi esifanayo ngokuphepha nangokuthembekile. Asizange seqe amakhilomitha angu-260 ngehora ngesivinini esiphezulu, kodwa sashayela emagumbini amaningi ngesivinini esikhulu. Kulokhu, i-Stinger chassis (ama-cross-rails aphindwe kabili ngaphambili nama-multi-rails ngemuva) yenze umsebenzi wayo ngokungenasici. Lokhu futhi kunakekelwe yi-chassis noma i-Damper Control System (DSDC). Ngaphezu kwemodi evamile, uhlelo lwe-Sport luyatholakala, oluthuthukisa ukudambisa futhi lunciphise ukuhamba kwe-damper. Umphumela uba ukuncipha komzimba ukuncika uma ujika emakhoneni, kanye nokushayela ngokushesha. Kodwa kungakhathalekile ukuthi yiluphi uhlelo olukhethiwe, uStinger wenze kahle ngengoma. Ngisho nasendaweni evamile, i-chassis ayilahlekelwa ukuthintana nomhlabathi, futhi ukuthintana nomhlabathi kungcono nakakhulu ngenxa yohlu olukhulu lwama-absorbers. Esinye isimanga ukushayela. I-Stinger izotholakala ngawo womabili amasondo adonsa ngawo wonke amasondo nangemuva. Yize sihlole iStinger enenjini enamandla kunazo zonke kodwa iStinger izotholakala nenjini engu-255 litre kaphethroli (2,2 horsepower) nenjini engu-200 litre turbodiesel (XNUMX horsepower). I-Nürburgring: Lokhu bekungekho ohambweni, njengoba ngisho namasondo onke edonsa ngawo wonke amasondo angemuva, kuphela ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu lapho iqondiswa kabusha kumasondo angaphambili.
AmaKorea azoqala ukukhiqiza iStinger engxenyeni yesibili yonyaka, kanti kulindeleke ukuthi ashaye izindawo zokubukisa ngekota yesine yalo nyaka. Ngemuva kwalokho kuzokwaziwa imininingwane yezobuchwepheshe esemthethweni futhi, nakanjani, intengo yemoto.
