HSV GTS 2013 Review

Nws yog lub tsheb ceev tshaj plaws thiab muaj zog tshaj plaws Australia tau tsim tawm - thiab tej zaum yuav muaj. peb yuav tsim tawm. Thiab peb muaj thawj tus tsuas yog minted tawm ntawm cov kab sib dhos.

Muaj tiag tiag tsuas yog ib qho chaw coj lub tsheb tshiab Holden Tshwj Xeeb GTS: lub tuam tsev siab ntawm horsepower, Mount Bathurst Panorama.

Peb yuav tsis raug tso cai ua txhaum li lub sijhawm zoo Peter Brock lossis ntau ntawm Holden V8 supercar heroes hnub no. Tom qab tag nrho, Mount Panorama yog txoj kev pej xeem nrog kev ceev ntawm 60 km / h thaum tsis siv los ua kev sib tw.

Tab sis peb tsis tau yws. Tau sim HSV GTS tshiab hauv tag nrho nws lub yeeb koob ntawm Phillip Island ib hlis dhau los, peb tsis muaj kev tsis ntseeg txog lub tsheb muaj peev xwm tua cov neeg loj heev (saib sidebar).

Xav tau luv luv version ntawm txoj kev xeem no? Tus tshiab HSV GTS tsuas yog amazing. Ntxiv nrog rau nws qhov kev nrawm nrawm, nws muaj qib tuav tsis tau pom dua hauv Australian kev ua si tsheb, ua tsaug tsis muaj ib feem me me rau kev siv hluav taws xob ntse uas tau txais los ntawm Porsche uas ua rau lub tsheb tom qab txuas mus rau txoj kev taug kev tsis muaj teeb meem dab tsi.

Kev tshuaj xyuas sai: Txog thaum lub ntsej muag tau txais $ 250,000K Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG tuaj txog ntawm Australian showrooms tom qab lub hlis no, HSV GTS yuav luv luv yog lub tsheb loj tshaj plaws ntawm nws qhov loj hauv ntiaj teb.

Lub tsheb, uas pib lub neej raws li ib tug Commodore, qiv ib tug epic supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine los ntawm North American sib tw versions ntawm lub Corvette thiab Camaro, raws li zoo raws li los ntawm Cadillac.

Txhim kho lub cav thiab tag nrho lwm yam khoom siv tsim nyog yog qhov kev sib koom ua haujlwm loj tshaj plaws ntawm Holden thiab tus khub ua haujlwm HSV hauv lawv txoj kev sib yuav 25 xyoo. (Lub tsheb pib lub neej ntawm Holden cov kab ntau lawm hauv Adelaide ua ntej qhov kawg kov tau ntxiv ntawm HSV qhov chaw nyob hauv Melbourne suburb ntawm Clayton.)

Yog tias koj tsis paub meej tias lub supercharger yog dab tsi, txhua yam koj yuav tsum paub yog tias nws yog qhov sib npaug ntawm lub twj tso kua mis loj uas ua rau huab cua ntau rau hauv lub cav uas twb muaj zog lawm. Koj xav tau cov pa ntau heev kom hlawv roj av ntau. Thiab thaum koj hlawv roj av ntau, koj tsim tau ntau lub zog. Thiab HSV GTS muaj nws ntau (430kW ntawm lub zog thiab 740Nm ntawm lub zog rau lub taub hau thev naus laus zis - lossis ntau dua li V8 Supercar sib tw tsheb rau cov tsis hloov).

Tam sim no, kuv tsuas yog sim taug kev hauv Melbourne lub sijhawm khiav ceev thiab tsis khawb thawj HSV GTS uas tawm Clayton tsis muaj neeg saib xyuas los ntawm lub tuam txhab engineers. Cov cim thaum ntxov yog qhov zoo: Kuv tsis tau tso tseg. Thawj qhov xav tsis thoob yog tias, txawm tias muaj cov khoom siv muaj zog, kev sib kis ntawm phau ntawv thiab clutch yog lub teeb thiab xis nyob. Tsis zoo li Toyota Corolla, tab sis tsis zoo li Kenworth ib yam.

TECHNOLOGY

Kuv sai sai nrhiav tau ib tug dial nyob rau hauv nruab nrab ntawm lub console (qiv los ntawm ib tug tshiab Corvette) uas hloov daim ntawv ntawm cov pa tawm raws li yog hais tias nws yog ib tug ntim tswj. Ib qho kev tswj lub suab nrov yuav tsis tsa cov neeg nyob ze, tab sis cov neeg nyob ze koj yuav hnov ​​​​cov ntses bass thaj tsam ntxiv los ntawm cov silencers.

Nws tsuas yog ib feem ntawm HSV GTS's thev naus laus zis suite tshiab. Koj tuaj yeem kho koj tus kheej qhov ncua sij hawm, lub kauj, lub tog raj kheej, thiab kev tswj kev ruaj ntseg nrog kev kov ntawm lub touchscreen lossis tig lub dial. Qhov tseeb, tus tshiab HSV GTS muaj ntau lub computer gadgets tshaj Nissan GT-R geek icon.

Daim duab qhia chaw rau txhua qhov kev sib tw hauv Australia twb tau teeb tsa ua ntej - thiab muaj chaw rau rau ntxiv yog tias thaum kawg lawv tau tsim (ntiv tes hla). Qhov tseeb tiag, txawm li cas los xij, tom qab koj tau ua kom pom cov kab ke mus rau ob peb tus phooj ywg, koj yuav tsis tshua pom nws qhov tob.

RAU TXOJ KEV

Tab sis qhov ntawd yuav tsis nres peb. Taug kev mus rau sab qaum teb ntawm Hume River mus rau Bathurst, peb tau ua raws li tib txoj kev uas Brock, Moffat thiab tuam txhab coj thaum cov lus dab neeg sib tw tau tsav lawv lub tsheb sib tw mus rau Bathurst hauv lub sijhawm kub ntawm kev ua si nawv. Cov tsheb khiav, ntawm chav kawm, yog qhov phem dua niaj hnub no, tab sis txoj kev zoo dua, txawm tias littered nrog lub koob yees duab ceev, nws zoo li, txhua ob peb mais.

Nyob rau sab qaum teb sab hnub tuaj ntawm Melbourne, peb hla lub hauv paus chaw ua haujlwm ntawm Broadmeadows thiab lub tsheb sib dhos kab ntawm Ford, Holden tus neeg sib tw loj heev rau 65 xyoo dhau los. Ford cov kiv cua vam tias Blue Oval hom yuav xa ib lub tsheb hero kawg ua ntej Falcon tawm ntawm kev lag luam hauv 2016. Yog hais tias qhov no tshwm sim, HSV GTS no yuav yog lub tsheb lawv yuav sim outdo.

Txhua tus neeg uas tau mus ncig ntawm Hume Highway paub tias txoj kev yog qhov txaus ntshai heev. Tab sis HSV GTS tshiab yuav siv sij hawm ntau qhov kev dhuav. Raws li nrog Holden Calais-V uas nws yog raws li, nws muaj ib tug digital zaub ntawm lub tsheb ceev xav txog ntawm lub windshield nyob rau hauv tus neeg tsav tsheb txoj kab ntawm pom.

Nws kuj tseem muaj lus ceeb toom rau kev sib tsoo pem hauv ntej yog tias koj tab tom yuav sib tsoo nrog lub tsheb ua ntej, thiab kev ceeb toom txoj kab khiav yog tias koj hla kab dawb yam tsis muaj kev taw qhia. Technophobes tuaj yeem lov tes taw cov tshuab no. Tab sis kuv tau tso cov zaub ceev rau. Nws yog amazing li cas relaxing nws tsis yog yuav tsum tau saib deb mus xyuas lub speedometer txhua txhua ob peb lub sij hawm, txawm tias thaum koj nyob rau hauv lub cruise tswj.

Tau txais mus rau Bathurst los ntawm Melbourne yog qhov yooj yim heev thiab tsis yog winding raws li kev mus los ntawm Sydney los ntawm Blue Mountains. Yeej, koj tig sab laug me ntsis sab qaum teb ntawm Albury ntawm New South Wales / Victoria ciam teb, zigzag mus rau sab nrauv ntawm Wagga Wagga, thiab tom qab ntawd yuav luag ncaj nraim mus rau sab nraum qab ntawm Bathurst.

Tsis zoo li Hume, tsis muaj chaw nres tsheb roj thiab cov khoom noj ceev ceev txhua ib nrab teev. Thiab txoj kev tsis yog li ntawd zoo khaws cia. Qhov twg yog qhov zoo thiab qhov tsis zoo, vim tias nws tsim qee qhov tsis zoo ntawm qhov chaw thiab qhov chaw pob zeb uas ua rau peb xav tsis thoob ib ntus yog tias peb yuav xav tau lub log tsheb uas muaj qhov chaw es tsis txhob txuag nws.

Vim tias HSV xav tau qhov chaw ntxiv hauv qab lub tsheb rau qhov sib txawv hnyav hnyav (kwv yees li qhov loj ntawm lub tshuab hluav taws xob sab nraud) thiab nws cov khoom siv cua txias, lub log tsheb spare yog mounted rau sab saum toj ntawm lub khau raj hauv pem teb es tsis txhob hauv qab. Tab sis tsawg kawg koj tau txais ib qho khoom seem. European-style sedans tuaj nrog cov khoom siv nce nqi thiab tus lej xov tooj. Ntawm no koj yuav tos ib pliag.

Thaum kawg peb mus txog Mecca ntawm Australia lub motorsports. Nws yog yav tsaus ntuj thiab cov neeg ua haujlwm txoj kev tsis khoom nrog lwm txoj kev txhim kho ua ntej lub Kaum Hli Ntuj Kev Sib Tw Loj. Thaum lub sij hawm mus ncig ua si cim, peb qhia lub roob hla nrog cov kws qhia hiking, cov neeg nyiam kev noj qab haus huv hauv zos thiab cov neeg nyiam kev qoj ib ce ntawm ko taw, siv kev nce toj siab kom tau lawv lub siab sib tw.

Txawm li cas los xij, txawm tias kuv tau nyob ntawm no ntau npaum li cas, Mount Panorama yeej tsis ua rau kuv xav tsis thoob. Txoj kev nqes hav, zoo li cov ces kaum, thiab cov pob tsuas txhais tau tias nws yuav tsis ua raws li cov kev cai niaj hnub no yog tias nws tau tsim los ntawm kos hnub no. Txawm li cas los xij, nws muaj sia nyob vim tias nws yog ib feem ntawm keeb kwm - thiab ua tsaug rau suav tsis txheeb nyiaj hloov kho tshiab. Hmoov tsis zoo, tus neeg hauv tsev Holden Commodore yuav sai sai no pom nws txoj hauv kev rau hauv phau ntawv keeb kwm. Thaum Holden Commodore tawm ntawm kev lag luam hauv 2016, nws yuav raug hloov los ntawm lub log pem hauv ntej-tsav tsheb uas tej zaum yuav lossis tsis tuaj yeem ua hauv Australia.

Qhov no ua rau HSV GTS tshiab ua kom haum rau lub cim rau kev lag luam tsheb hauv Australian thiab yav tom ntej. Nws yog qhov tshwm sim ntawm tag nrho Australian automotive paub-yuav ua li cas hauv ib lub tsheb (txawm tias muaj kev pab me ntsis los ntawm North American supercharged V8 engine). Txawm li cas los xij, txawm tias koj saib nws li cas, yuav tsis muaj lub tsheb zoo li no ntxiv. Thiab qhov no yog ib qho xwm txheej.

NTAWM ROAD

HSV GTS tshiab yog qhov zoo ntawm txoj kev, tab sis koj xav tau kev sib tw khiav kom nthuav tawm nws lub peev xwm tag nrho. Hmoov zoo, HSV ntiav ib hnub. HSV thov GTS tshiab tuaj yeem khiav ntawm 0 mus rau 100 km / h hauv 4.4 vib nas this nrog kev sib kis tsis siv neeg (yog, nws nrawm dua li phau ntawv kis tau tus mob, tab sis nws nrawm dua nrog phau ntawv kis tau tus mob thaum koj twb tau tsiv mus lawm). Lub sijhawm zoo tshaj plaws los ntawm 0 txog 100 peb tuaj yeem tau txais los ntawm phau ntawv qhia yog qhov ua tau yooj yim ua tiav 4.7 thib ob khiav. Hauv kev tswj hwm lub hom phiaj, nws khiav ad xeev siab hauv 4.8 vib nas this.

Txawm li cas los xij, acceleration tsuas yog ib feem ntawm zaj dab neeg. Kev tuav tau nce mus ib ntus. Thaum kawg, cov hlau nplaum tswj cov khoom nyob rau hauv lub ncua kev kawm ntawv cog lus kev nplij siab thiab tuav. GTS tam sim no tuav cov pob zoo dua li HSV Clubsport.

Qhov zoo tshaj plaws, koj tuaj yeem hnov ​​​​lub khoos phis tawj khawv koob siv lub tsheb nres los pab tiv thaiv qhov kawg ntawm kev swb. Electronic torque vectoring yog tib hom kev sib tham uas Porsche siv. Thaum xub thawj koj xav tias koj qhov kev txawj tsav tsheb tau txhim kho. Tom qab ntawd los muaj tseeb.

Qhov tseem ceeb rau kuv, ib sab ntawm qhov pom tseeb ntawm adrenaline maj, yog pob nres tshiab. Cov no yog cov brakes loj tshaj plaws puas tau haum rau lub tsheb tsim khoom Australian. Thiab lawv zoo heev. Lawv muaj lub siab xav tias zoo li cov tsheb sib tw, tsis yog 1850kg sedans. Tsis muaj qhov tsis ntseeg tias GTS tshiab yog pob tag nrho HSV lossis Holden tau tsim. Peb tsis muab qhov kev qhuas no maj mam, tab sis pab neeg tom qab lub tshuab no yuav tsum hneev nti.
