I-Test drive iToyota LC200

UMat Donnelly usevele wahlangana neToyota Land Cruiser 200 ekuqaleni kuka-2015. Cishe unyaka nohhafu kamuva, baphinde babonana - ngalesi sikhathi, "abangamakhulu amabili" bakwazile ukusinda ekuphakamiseni ubuso

Ngaphandle, iLand Cruiser 200, engiyihlolile eMoscow, imane ifana ngendlela emangalisayo naleyo enganginikezwa ngayo ngabangane bami abavela eRBC ngo-2015. Kepha uma ubhekisisa kahle, kuvela ukuthi iToyota yenze ukuphakamisa ubuso okuhle kakhulu. Akufani nhlobo nalaba besifazane asebekhulile abaqala ukukhathazeka ngamandla adonsela phansi, njengoba bewela umkhawulo weshumi leminyaka lesithathu, futhi baqala ukwethuka ukutshala imali yabo ekushintsheni okukhulu ekubukekeni: kwavela izindebe, amakhala afana noMichael Jackson, amabunzi angabuni, izinwele ezinhle, nesifuba esifuthayo.

 

ILand Cruiser ineminyaka engaphezu kuka-60 ubudala futhi, ngokungafani nabesifazane, ibukeka sengathi zonke izingxenye ezintsha zilingana kahle nomzimba wonke. I-Toyota ifinyelele lokho okushiwo yilowo nalowo udokotela ohlinzayo wepulasitiki esigulini sayo esizidlayo: ngemva kokuhlinzwa, i-LC200 yaqala ukubukeka incane kunangaphambili. Akungabazeki ukuthi lena yiLand Cruiser, ethe xaxa nje kwezokusubatha, ekhaliphile, enamehlo avuleke kancane namaqhubu amabili ahlaba umxhwele kakhulu kwihood.

Into yokugcina engihambe ngayo ehambisana nosayizi we-LC200 yi-UAZ Patriot. Ziyafana ngosayizi, zombili zihlalisa umshayeli nabagibeli ngaphezu kwaso sonke isiminyaminya, babe nenjini ngaphambili namasondo ekhoneni ngalinye. Yebo, kuyo yonke eminye imibono, zihluke ngokuphelele.

Umehluko osobala kakhulu phakathi kwalokhu yikhwalithi yokwakha. Ngicabanga ukuthi nabashayeli be-UAZ abashisekela izwe labo bayavuma ukuthi iLand Cruiser isihambile iminyaka phambili ngale nkomba. Ngikulungele ukubheja ukuthi ngisho nomlwi omkhulu we-sumo wrestling akakwazi ukususa le Toyota okungafanele kususwe ngokwenqubo yokuqala.

 

Konke okunye umehluko akubonakali kangako. I-UAZ akuyona imoto ethokomele kunazo zonke ongayishayela ku-asphalt, kodwa kumnandi ngokumangazayo ukushayela ngaphandle komgwaqo. Kuyimoto eyinkimbinkimbi yokusebenzisana edinga ukugxila okukhulu nesibindi kumshayeli wayo. Kubukeka sengathi le moto iphupha nje ngokuba sodakeni nokunqoba izindawo ezingaziwa.

Mayelana nokusebenza kokushayela, i-LC200 ayikashintshi kangako selokhu kwabuyekezwa - isabonakala ingenamizwa. Emgwaqeni, i-SUV izwakala njenge-midsize sedan. Kuyafaneleka ukushayela imizuzu embalwa - futhi ungakhohlwa ngobukhulu bayo namandla. Ngisho nangaphandle komgwaqo, imizwa ivuka kuphela ngesikhathi lapho evunguza emakhoneni amangalisayo.

 

ILand Cruiser imane nje iyiSUV eyisimanga, ekwaziyo ukuya nomaphi lapho umshayeli wayo efuna khona, osengqondweni yakhe futhi anqume ukubheka ukuthi ukhokhele malini. Futhi, i-LC200 izohamba ngqo lapho uyiqondisa khona, ngaphandle kwamagqubu futhi kuyaqabukela ukusondela ekuphakamiseni onqenqemeni. Futhi kuyisicefe kancane.

Kodwa akuyona into edabukisayo kakhulu: phela, i-SUV esasiyishayela iyimoto ye-premium. Inesikhumba esinokhilimu esiningi futhi okhaphethi bangcono kunalokho engingakwazi ukukukhokhela indlu yami. Izihlalo zikhululekile lapha, futhi ukuhlukaniswa nezwe langaphandle kunamandla kangangokuthi isithombe sesitini esikhulu, esindayo, esenzelwe ukuzenza i-sedan encane, sakhiwe ngokuphelele. Futhi kuyingozi kakhulu. Ngiqinisekile ukuthi endaweni ethile ekujuleni kwekhodi yesofthiwe yale moto kukhona uhlobo oluthile lwe-cipher eyimfihlo engenza imoto, kanye nabashayeli nabagibeli, babhajwe emigwaqweni emincane yedolobha. I-LC200 igcwele zonke izinhlobo zamagajethi kanye nezinhlelo ezinobuqili eziphazamisa ukusebenza kwe-gas pedal, ukukhethwa kwegiya futhi kukhanywe le leviathan ezikhaleni ngaphandle kokuthola ithuba lokujika noma ukuvika imoto engase iqonde kuyo.

Izinga lokusheshisa kanye nekhono leLand Cruiser lokushayela ngokushelela kakhulu ngesivinini esikhulu liyajabulisa. Abanye abasebenzisi bomgwaqo babona i-200 futhi bacabanga ukuthi ngenxa yobukhulu bayo kanye nokuntuleka kwe-aerodynamics, kufanele ihambe kancane. Lokhu, ngokwesibonelo, kuchaza amehlo agcwele ukwesaba abanye abashayeli lapho uvela ngaphandle kwe-LCXNUMX futhi udlule ngokushesha.

Ngike ngasho ukuthi le moto ingathatha kalula futhi kamnandi umnikazi ophusile lapho ethanda khona. Ngemva kokucabanga, ngafinyelela esiphethweni: Angiqiniseki ukuthi "abantu abanengqondo" yizithameli eziqondiswe kulawa maToyota eMoscow. Ngokuvamile, izimakethe ezibalulekile zeLand Cruiser yilawo mazwe lapho kunempi, inhlekelele yemvelo isidlulile, izimakethe lapho udinga khona izimoto ezinkulu zonogada abakhulu. Ngokwesibonelo, e-Australia. Okusho ukuthi, indawo lapho ukupaka akuyona inkinga, futhi udinga ukuhamba ngesivinini esihloniphekile amabanga amade emigwaqweni ekude nokuphelela. Ngibize nge-cynical, kodwa ukuntuleka kokukhathalela mayelana nokupaka nokushayela isikhathi eside ngesivinini esikhulu akuzwakali njengenhloko-dolobha yethu kazwelonke, nakuba izici zemigwaqo zifana ncamashi.

 

EMoscow, ngombuso wayo omusha wemigwaqo emincane nezindawo zokupaka ezinomkhawulo, akunakwenzeka ukuqonda ukuthi umuntu onengqondo anganquma kanjani ukuthenga i-LC200. Abashayeli abathandwayo baseCity Hall - labo asebethole ithuba lokulengisa isitikha "abakhubazekile" emotweni, bazobhekana nobunzima obukhulu ngeLand Cruiser. Iphakeme kakhulu futhi ngokusobala ayenzelwanga labo abanezinkinga zokuqwala. Yebo, kithina esingenalo ilungelo elisemthethweni lezihlalo ezimbalwa zamahhala, imoto inkulu kakhulu. Noma enesethi enkulu yamakhamera amahle akhombisa umhlaba wonke omzungezile. Konke lokhu kukhonjiswa ngemidwebo esontekile, kepha eqondakalayo esikrinini esiphakathi.

Izizukulwane ezedlule zamaLand Cruisers zazaziwa kakhulu ngamabhuleki awo amabi. Ukuhlela ngendlela efanele ukwehliswa kwesinye sezici bekungokunye okujabulisa kakhulu ukushayela le moto. Ukuzwa kwe-SUV yamathani amathathu kume eduze kwabahamba ngezinyawo, izithiyo nezimoto kunikeze ukushesha okungenangqondo kwe-adrenaline. AbakwaToyota ngokusobala bazwile ukububula kwamakhasimende abo abancomayo futhi aqotho: le nguqulo entsha isabela ngendlela eyisimanga ebhentshini lamabhuleki. Kubukeka sengathi ukusikisela okuncane ukuthi unyawo lomshayeli lunyakaze lubheke kulesi sisekelo kwenza ikholomu ime ngokungazelelwe futhi ngokungazelelwe.

 

Ngishilo ukuthi i-Australia isalokhu iyimakethe ebalulekile yalolu hlobo futhi amabhuleki kungenzeka ukuthi ahlehliswa ngenxa yezizathu ezimbili: ukwenza iLand Cruiser ingabi yingozi kangako nokukhumbuza abase-Australia ngesilwane sabo sikazwelonke. Iseluleko sami kuphela kumthengi ongaba khona we-LC200 ukuthi ungathathi ikhofi noma abafazi abangathembi nezingane ohambweni lwakho lokuqala nale moto. Okungenani uze ufunde ukuphatha kahle amabhuleki. Ngaphandle kwalokho, kuzoba nzima ukushayela phezulu, ikakhulukazi uma ungazijovanga ngeBotox futhi ungakaze ugibele i-kangaroo.

Uma kwenzeka ngingakacacisi okwamanje, iLand Cruiser 200 inkulu kakhulu. Imodeli yethu ayizange ibe nomugqa wesithathu wezihlalo. Kubi kakhulu, ngoba bekufanele kube umugqa wesithathu ongcono kakhulu emhlabeni. Kodwa i-SUV yethu yayinomthamo omkhulu kangangokuthi kwakungenziwa ukusebenza kuyo. Isistimu yomsindo yayimbi kakhulu ngenxa yokuthi inani elikhulu lendwangu ethambile lalingakwazi ukumunca ama-bass namafrikhwensi aphezulu, futhi ibanga phakathi kwezipikha lalilikhulu. Futhi, i-LC200 ibingenawo ugesi omusha onamagiya ayisishiyagalombili ozishintshayo. Ngobulungiswa, futhi i-six-speed yayiyinhle kakhulu. Ngokuqondene nomsindo omubi, lokhu kungachazwa ngokuchema e-Australia. Ngiyabathanda abantu base-Australia, kodwa ikakhulukazi labo abakwazi ukucula bahlala eLondon.

 

Le Land Cruiser ibinebhokisi elijabulisayo lefriji nokulawulwa kahle kwesimo sezulu - izinzuzo ezisobala zemoto ezidalelwe amazwe anezingwadule. Futhi ibinohlelo lokuzijabulisa ngesibonisi esikhulu kunazo zonke esake sabonwa. Maye, uhlelo lokulawula belingenabo ubungani ngokwanele, futhi ukusebenza kwemisindo yemoto kwehlise kakhulu ukufaneleka kwayo njengethiyetha yaseshashalazini.

Ngakho-ke, likhulu, liphephile, likhululekile ngendlela eyisimanga futhi liyashesha, futhi lihle futhi - ukuxubana okuhle kobudlova namafomu omndeni. Kuyisidina impela ukushayela (ikakhulukazi ngenxa yekhono layo lokuzishayela elimangalisayo namandla alo amakhulu). Ukuhlobisa kwangaphakathi kuyacatshangelwa, kepha kuyisicefe. Nginesiqiniseko sokuthi abantu asebevele baneLand Cruiser nendawo yokupaka, noma labo abadinga ukuvikeleka ngokungathi sína, bazofuna ukuthenga le moto, kodwa angiboni amakhasimende asevele ene-SUV yaseYurophu ethakazelayo enesithakazelo kuyo. Ngokusobala, uma uhlala eSiberia futhi ungumnikazi womthombo kawoyela - lokhu kungukukhetha okuhle, eMoscow - imoto enhle, kepha hhayi idolobha elifanele.

 

Sithanda ukudlulisa ukubonga kwethu eqenjini lezemidlalo lomndeni kanye nezemfundo "i-Olympic Village Novogorsk" ngosizo lwabo ekuqopheni ifilimu.
