Ukubuyekezwa kwe-Smart ForFour 2004: Isifinyezo

Okumangaza nakakhulu inani, ngoba ngentengo yokuqala engu-$23,900, i-ForFour iqhelelene namamodeli ajwayelekile.

Siyayeka ukubiza izihlalo ezine eziwubukhazikhazi "ngokuvamile" ngoba iForFour ayijwayelekile - kodwa uyazi ukuthi sitholani lapha?

Ifilosofi ilula - uma kufanele ushayele i-econobox, akudingekile ukuba ibe yisicefe - hhayi uma ukwazi ukuthenga i-Smart ngentengo efanayo.

Isibonelo, imoto itholakala ngenhlanganisela yemibala engama-30 ehlukene.

Akungabazeki ukuthi abafundi bajwayelene ne-Smart ForTwo encane ejabulisayo osekuphele izinyanga eziyi-12 ikhona.

Idizayinelwe imigwaqo emincane, eminyene yamadolobha aseYurophu, indawo encane ehlala abantu ababili isebenza kahle engxenyeni yayo, kodwa ayiziboleki kahle imvelo yase-Australia - hhayi lapho ungathenga i-hatchback yaseJapane eshibhile engenkulu kakhulu. . nezindawo ezine.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, iForFour yindaba ehlukile, njengoba sithole kuleli sonto.

Ngaphambi kokuthi siqhubeke, kufanele sichaze ukuthi i-Smart iyingxenye ye-DaimlerChrysler#comcorrect empire, ephinde ibe ngabanikazi be-Mercedes-Benz.

Inkampani ibikade ithule kancane ekukhangiseni ukuxhumana kwayo ne-Benz, kodwa kulokhu iyishaye ngenjabulo.

Kufanele futhi sichaze ukuthi uDaimlerChrysler ungumnikazi weMitsubishi nokuthi iSmart ForFour kanye neMitsubishi Colt esanda kwethulwa babelana ngezinto eziningi.

IMitsubishi ibibhekele indawo engaphansi kwemoto, i-exhaust system kanye nethangi likaphethiloli, kanti u-Smart ubenakekela ugesi, i-asi yangaphambili, isistimu yokugwema ukushayisana kanye nesistimu yokukhanyisa.

Lezi zimoto ezimbili zakhiwe ku-chassis ehlukene, kodwa zabelana cishe ngamaphesenti angu-40 wezingxenye, kuhlanganise nenjini engu-1.5-litre, kodwa ngokungafani okuningi.

Kunezinhlobo ezimbili zeForFour ezitholakalayo – 1.3-litre kanye 1.5-litre – edlala ngendlela European Pulse kodwa enezici ezengeziwe.

Asikaqiniseki ukuthi amamodeli amabili ayadingeka ngempela uma kubhekwa indlela ye-Aussie yezinjini ezinkulu, ezinamandla, kodwa zombili izinhlobo zinokuningi okunikezwayo.

Injini engu-1.5 litre Colt inamandla angu-72 kW kanye ne-torque engu-132 Nm, yona engu-1.5 litre ForFour inamandla angu-80 kW ne-torque engu-145 Nm.

Khonamanjalo, injini engu-1.3 litre ForFour inamandla angu-70kW no-125Nm.

Idonsa ngamagiya amahlanu ashintshwayo noma idonsa ngamagiya ayisithupha azishintshayo.

Sikwazile ukuwahlola womabili amamodeli ngesikhathi kwethulwa e-Australia kuleli sonto futhi singabika ukuthi i-ForFour iyisengezo esijabulisayo nesijabulisayo kulolu hlelo.

Ukubukeka nokuzwakala kuyimidlalo, enezinjini zetorque ezithanda ama-rev, isilinganiso esihle samandla nesisindo, namathayi abambayo.

Ukuhamba okumisiwe kunqunyelwe futhi imoto igxumagxuma kancane emigwaqweni enezihibe, iphume ngezinye izikhathi.

I-rear legroom yangaphakathi inhle, kodwa ngezindleko zesikhala somthwalo.

Nokho, isihlalo sangemuva singahlehliswa emuva noma siye phambili ngo-150mm ukuze uthole indawo eyengeziwe, futhi singatshekiswa futhi sigoqwe ukuze sithwale izinto ezinkulu.

Njengoba ingaphansi kuka-1000 6.0kg, iForFour ibuye idle kancane, zombili lezi zinjini zibuya cishe ku-100L/XNUMXkm noma kangcono uma zisebenzisa uphethroli we-premium unleaded.

Izosebenzisa uphethiloli ojwayelekile ongafakwanga umkhombandlela, kodwa unciphise ugesi.

Imishini ejwayelekile ihlanganisa amasondo angu-15 inch alloy wheels, air conditioning, CD player, amawindi kagesi omshayeli nomgibeli ngaphambili, 3-spoke isiteringi esinamandla kagesi, locking emaphakathi neremote control okubalwa kuyo i-drive lock, immobilizer ne-anti-theft system, electronic uhlelo lokuzinzisa. (ESP) ene-hydraulic brake booster, anti-lock braking system (ABS) ehlanganisa i-electronic brake force distribution (EBD), ama-disc brakes ngaphambili nangemuva, i-Tridion safety cell nama-airbag asemaceleni ngaphambili.

I-Smart ForFour itholakala kubathengisi abakhethiwe bakwaMercedes-Benz.
