IFord Ranger neHonda Ridgeline zikleliswe yi-Consumer Reports njengamaloli okuthwala athembeke kakhulu ngo-2022. Womabili amaloli aphakathi nendawo akwazile ukushaya izintandokazi ezinkulu njengeToyota Tacoma neJeep Gladiator.

I-Consumer Reports ihlulela ukwethembeka kwamaloli ahlangene naphakathi ngezindlela ezimbili. Okokuqala, bahlola abanikazi bamaloli eminyakeni emithathu yokugcina yokukhiqiza ukuze babone izindawo eziyinkinga futhi banikeze amaloli ahamba ngamamayela aphansi iphuzu le-100.

Okwesibili, basebenzisa umlando wokwakheka kanye nemodeli ukuze banikeze iloli ngalinye elisha isikolo esibikezelwe sokwethembeka esingu-5. Ngo-2022, ama-Midsize nama-compact pickups azoba ama-pickup amaphakathi athembekile kakhulu.

Iyiphi iloli eliphakathi nendawo elithembeke kakhulu?

Ngokumangazayo, intandokazi yokuthembeka kwe-quintessential ilahlekelwe amanye amaloli amabili amancane. Amaloli anosayizi omaphakathi athembeke kakhulu ka-2022 yiFord Ranger neHonda Ridgeline, ngokusho kweConsumer Reports.

Okokuqala, i-Consumer Reports ixoxisane nabanikazi be-Ridgeline kanye ne-Ranger eminyakeni emithathu edlule. Abanikazi bahlonze izindawo ezinezinkinga ezimbalwa kakhulu; U-CR unikeze isizukulwane samanje iFord Ranger neHonda Ridgeline 68/100.

IToyota neJeep baphushelwe ngaphandle

Uma kuqhathaniswa, i-CR inikeze iToyota Tacoma yamanje engu-59/100 kuphela. Alikho elinye iloli elincane elithole ngaphezu kuka-30/100. IJeep Gladiator entsha iqede ekugcineni ngamaphuzu angama-23/100.

Ngokusekelwe kumlando wokwenziwa nemodeli ngayinye, i-CR iphinde yabela iloli ngalinye elisha lika-2022 isikolo esibikezelwe sokwethembeka. U-Ranger no-Ridgeline bathole u-4/5 noma "ngaphezu kwesilinganiso". Ngisho neTacoma ithole kuphela u-3/5 noma "amaphuzu amaphakathi".

Ingabe i-Ford Ranger iwukuthenga Okuhle?

Uma iFord izimisele ukwakha iTacoma engcono, kubukeka sengathi iBlue Oval yenze. I-Ranger iyi-all rounder enhle, izuza esinye sezilinganiso eziphezulu kakhulu ze-Consumer Reports zango-2022.

Ngo-2019, unyaka wokuqala weRanger entsha, i-Consumer Reports yayinokukhathazeka mayelana nokudluliswa kweloli, uhlelo lokushayela kanye nokumiswa. Kodwa ngonyaka wemodeli ka-2021, abakwaFord bakhulume lezo zinkinga, futhi isilinganiso sokwethembeka kweloli sikhuphuke kakhulu.

Ababuyekezi be-CR baphinde bathande ukuthi i-Ranger iyonga ekilasini layo futhi i-nimble ngosayizi wayo. Amaphuzu aphezulu ahlanganisa ukunethezeka kwayo, isipiliyoni sokushayela kanye nokusheshisa.

Kungani i-Ridgeline ingelona iloli?

Abagxeki abafana ne-Consumer Reports bayayithanda i-Honda Ridgeline. Kodwa abanye abathanda iloli bathi akulona iloli langempela. Lokhu kungenxa yokwakhiwa kwe-Ridgeline unibody, ebukeka njenge-crossover kuneloli noma i-SUV.

Izimoto zakuqala zazinomklamo womzimba phezu kohlaka: abakhiqizi bezimoto baxhuma imishini nama-ekseli ohlaka olumise okwesitebhisi base bebeka umzimba phezu kwalolo hlaka. Ngawo-1950, onjiniyela bathola ukuthi ukuxhuma ama-ekseli kanye nokudluliselwa emzimbeni oqinisiwe kunciphisa isisindo semoto. Kodwa njengoba lo mklamo "owodwa" wehlise amandla, amaloli nama-SUV ahlala esekelwe kuhlaka.

Idizayini ethuthukisiwe ye-unibody iholele ekukhuleni okunamandla kwama-crossover nama-SUVs. Namuhla, ama-pickup e-unibody afaka i-Honda ne-Ridgeline.

I-Consumer Reports ithanda i-powertrain ye-Ridgeline, ukugibela, nokunethezeka. Kodwa le nhlangano iphinde ixwaye ubuqotho bomzimba we-Ridgeline kanye nemishini.
