Uhlolojikelele lwe-Opel Astra OPC 2013
Awu, akuzange kuthathe isikhathi eside. Inkampani yaseGermany iGeneral Motors Opel isinezinyanga eziyisithupha kuphela kuleli kanti ithole ukuthi ama-Aussies ayawathanda ama-hot hatch.
Cishe iGolofu elilodwa kwamane lakwaVolkswagen adayiswa kuleli iyinguqulo ye-GTI - uma kuqhathaniswa nesilinganiso somhlaba esingamaphesenti amahlanu kuphela - ngakho kunengqondo ukuthi i-Opel izosheshisa ukwethulwa kwe-Hi-Po hatchback yayo. Iza negama elijwayelekile i-Astra OPC (eyakamuva imele i-Opel Performance Centre) kanye nefilosofi efana nama-hot hatch ahamba phambili emhlabeni: amandla amaningi ephaketheni elingangephinti.
Ngesikhathi sigcina ukuba nemoto enjalo kwa-Opel, yayibizwa nge-Astra VXR futhi ifake ibheji le-HSV (kusukela ngo-2006 kuya ku-2009). Kodwa lena imodeli entsha ngokuphelele.
Okushoyo
I-Opel Astra OPC iqala ku-$42,990 kanye nezindleko zokuhamba, ezibiza kakhulu kunezicabha ezinhlanu i-Ford Focus ST ($38,290) kanye ne-VW Golf GTI ($40,490).
Ngesibindi, i-Opel Astra OPC ibiza kakhulu kunentengo yokuqala ye-Renault Megane RS265 ehlonishwa kakhulu ($42,640), i-hatch eshisayo eshesha kakhulu emhlabeni ngokwalesi silinganiso somhlaba wonke, i-Nürburgring. Ngalokho, ulindele ukuthi i-Opel iqhamuke nomsebenzi ewenzayo kwezinye izindawo kodwa hhayi kwezinye.
Ithola izihlalo zemidlalo yesikhumba njengezijwayelekile, kodwa upende wensimbi wengeza u-$695 (hawu) uma kuqhathaniswa no-$800 kuRenault Megane RS (double oops) kanye no-$385 kuFord Focus ST (ifana naleyo). Injini yakwa-Astra engu-2.0 litre turbocharged OPC (okuyisisekelo sekilasi) inamandla amakhulu kanye ne-torque kontanga yayo (206kW no-400Nm), kodwa ayihumushi ekusebenzeni kangcono (bona Driving). Ingaphakathi lizwakala liphakeme kakhulu kuneRenault (yize ifana nezinto ezicwebezelayo zeFord Focus ST), futhi izihlalo zayo zezemidlalo ezisezingeni eliphezulu ziwinile.
Kodwa izinkinobho nezilawuli ze-Opel akulula ukuzisebenzisa, isibonelo ukushuna esiteshini somsakazo. Ukuzulazula kujwayelekile, kodwa ikhamera yangemuva ayitholakali nganoma iyiphi intengo. (Ikhamera yangemuva ijwayelekile kwaFord futhi uyazikhethela kuRenault neVolkswagen). Amageji angemuva ajwayelekile, kodwa amageji angaphambili awenzelwe ubhampa wangaphambili we-OPC.
Kodwa-ke, ukucatshangelwa kwezindleko ezinkulu ukuthi imoto izoba yimalini uma uzoyithengisa. Ukwehla kwenani izindleko ezinkulu zobunikazi ngemva kwenani lokuthenga. IRenault Megane RS neFord Focus ST abanalo inani eliphezulu lokudayiswa kabusha (iRenault ngenxa yokuthi iwumkhiqizo osezingeni eliphezulu, kanye neFord ngoba isazakhela udumo ngebheji elisha le-ST).
Kodwa abathengisi bezitolo bathi uhlobo lwe-Opel luselusha kakhulu ukubikezela ukuthi i-Astra OPC izobiza malini eminyakeni embalwa, okusho ukuthi bazoqale bayidlale iphephile futhi bayilahle ngesikhathi sokulethwa.
of technology
I-Astra OPC inohlelo lokumiswa elubiza nge-"Flexride," kodwa bangalubiza kalula ngokuthi "ukugibela ukhaphethi ondizayo." Naphezu kokugibela amasondo amakhulu angu-19 inch kanye namathayi e-Pirelli P Zero (isondo elidume kakhulu phakathi kwezinhlobo ezifuywayo), i-Astra OPC itshuza kweminye yemigwaqo emibi kakhulu ohulumeni bethu bezifundazwe abangasinikeza yona, ngaphandle kwezigidigidi ezitholwayo. izimali (uxolo, inkundla engalungile).
Inomehluko olula (kodwa osebenza kahle kakhulu) wokushelela okulinganiselwe, i-Opel ewukhomba ngokusiza ukuthi ishayela amasondo angaphambili. Lokhu kufakwa kwensimbi enamandla, eminyene ukusiza ukuletha amandla emgwaqeni kuyisinyathelo esamukelekayo ngesikhathi lapho abanye abakhiqizi (sigxilise amehlo ethu kuwe, iFord neVolkswagen) bezama ukusenza sikholelwe ukuthi izinto zikagesi zingakwazi. wenze njalo. Umsebenzi.
I-mechanical limited slip differential esetshenziswa kwiRenault Megane RS ne-Opel Astra OPC isiza ukudlulisa amandla esondo langaphambili elingaphakathi emakhoneni aqinile. Amasistimu okulawula ukudonsa ahamba phambili alawulwa nge-elekthronikhi (angilokothi ngiwabize ngokuthi ama-electron limited-slip differentials, njengoba kwenza abanye abakhiqizi bezimoto - uma bebheka iFord ne-VW futhi) bamukelekile ngokuphelele ngaphansi kwezimo ezijwayelekile zokushayela. Kodwa lapho amakhona eqala ukuqina, acishe angabi namsebenzi, naphezu kwalokho okushiwo yile ncwajana.
Ngakho-ke sibonga i-Opel (neRenault) ngokulahla ubuchwepheshe kuleli cala. Udinga ubufakazi obengeziwe bokuthi i-LSD engumshini iyindlela okufanele uhambe ngayo? Kwa-VW bazokunikeza njengenketho kwi-Golf 7 GTI entsha ngasekupheleni konyaka.
Design
Ukuvala izindlebe. Imoto yakhiwe kahle futhi ibushelelezi kangangokuthi awukwazi ukuzibamba. Ungakwazi ngisho ukuyijikeleza izikhathi ezimbalwa ngaphambi kokungena ngaphakathi. Njengoba kushiwo ngaphambili, ingaphakathi liyinhloko namahlombe ngaphezu kwemincintiswano eminingi ngenxa yokuqedwa okucwebezelayo, imigqa esesitayeleni nezihlalo zangaphambili eziphakeme.
Kodwa, ngokubona kwami, ukuklama okuhle kufanele kusebenze. Ngeshwa, izilawuli zomsindo nezomoya ze-Opel zizwakala njengenselele kunesimemo sokwamukela ngaphakathi. Izinkinobho eziningi kakhulu ezithatha isikhathi eside ukuthi zilungiswe. Sishayela izimoto ezingaphezu kuka-250 ngonyaka, futhi uma sidinga ukubhekisela kumanuwali yomnikazi ngemva kwemizuzu engu-30 yokuzama, lokho kuwuphawu oluhle kakhulu lokuthi ayinembile. Kubukeka kukuhle bafo, kodwa kwenze kube lula ukukusebenzisa ngesikhathi esilandelayo.
Futhi, uma sikhuluma iqiniso, amasondo engxubevange angama-intshi angu-19 emoto yethu yokuhlola akhulume kancane kancane uma eqhathaniswa namasondo angu-20-intshi abukisayo (inketho ka-$1000 kanye ne-$1000 esetshenziswe kahle).
Ukulondolozwa
Ama-airbag ayisithupha, ukuphepha kwezinkanyezi ezinhlanu, kanye nesethingi yokulawula ukuzinza enezigaba ezintathu (kuya ngokuthi ufuna ukuba nesibindi esingakanani). I-Renault ithola ama-airbag ayisishiyagalombili (uma ubala), kodwa umphumela wokuphahlazeka uyafana. Ukubamba kahle umgwaqo nakho kufanele kunconywe, futhi i-Opel Astra OPC inokuningi kwalokho. Amathayi ePirelli aphakathi kwalawo abambelela kakhulu emigwaqweni emanzi noma eyomile namuhla. Yingakho bencanyelwa yiMercedes-Benz, Porsche, Ferrari nezinye.
I-Brembo racing brake enamapiston amane mahle, kodwa ayinawo umuzwa oqondile weRenault Megane RS265 esiyivivinye sibuyela emuva. Okuwukuphela kwesici ekhadini lombiko elihlaba umxhwele ukushoda kwezinzwa zokupaka ngaphambili noma ikhamera yangemuva - ngisho nanjengenketho. Bese ulungisa ubuso.
Ukushayela
I-Opel yenze umsebenzi oncomekayo wokumatanisa ukubamba okuhle nokusebenza ngamathayi nokulengiswa ukuze kungadingeki uvakashele udokotela wezifo zesikhumba masonto onke. Ngokuqinisekile kungenye yezindlela ezingcono kakhulu zokubonisa ukunethezeka kokugibela nokuphatha.
Mayelana nejubane, i-Opel ihambisana neRenault Megane RS265 nemizuzwana engu-0 ukusuka ku-100-6.0 mph, nakuba i-Astra OPC inamandla netorque engeziwe. Kodwa-ke, i-Opel ine-turbo lag ethe xaxa - i-lag yamandla - ukusuka ku-rpm ephansi uma iqhathaniswa ne-Renault Megane RS265, okwenza amandla amangalisayo enjini angafinyeleleki kalula.
Abakwa-Opel bayathanda ukusho ukuthi imoto yabo iyakwazi ukushayela edolobheni uma iqhathaniswa nozakwabo abashisayo, kodwa ngaphezu kwe-turbo lag, inobubanzi obuyi-12.3 metres, ukudlula iToyota LandCruiser Prado, engamamitha angu-11.8 uma nginentshisekelo). ). I-Astra's pedal pedal travel yinde kancane, kanjalo nohambo lwamashifu. Akekho kubo obukeka njengemoto yokusebenza yangempela. KwiRenault Megane RS265, yonke into enyakazayo ibonakala njengesikele, ukusabela kunembile kakhulu.
Umsindo wenjini ye-Opel incela umoya omningi ngesikhathi igijima kakhulu awubonakali njengowezinye izimoto zalolu hlobo. IRenault Megane RS265 ikuvuza ngekhwela elicashile le-turbo kanye ne-exhaust crackle phakathi koshintsho lwegiya. I-Opel Astra OPC izwakala njengekati elikhwehlela ibhola loboya.
Isinqumo
I-Astra OPC iyi-hot hatch ethembeke kakhulu, ayilungile kangako, ayiphelele, futhi ayithengeki njengomncintiswano. Uma ufuna isitayela nesivinini, thenga i-Opel Astra OPC. Uma ufuna i-hot hatch ehamba phambili - okungenani okwamanje - thenga iRenault Megane RS265. Noma linda ubone ukuthi izobukeka kanjani i-VW Golf GTI entsha uma isifika ngasekupheleni konyaka.
