Saib Lotus Elise 2007

Cov neeg caij tsheb muag khoom tau nce siab, nce ntau dua 40% xyoo dhau los hauv qee pawg hauv xyoo 2006, raws li tsab ntawv tshaj tawm kev lag luam txhua hli.

Nws yuav zoo rau xav tias kev lag luam ua tiav ntawm cov tsheb tsim kom yooj yim thiab kev nplij siab ntawm tus nqi ntawm kev tsav tsheb txaus siab, qhov tseeb ntawm qhov kev xav, yog qhov tsis zoo ib ntus.

Tias peb tsis tuaj yeem tau txais txaus ntawm cov no maj mam, soothing, ncaws pob-style mobiles yog qhov qhia tias peb tus kheej-obsessed, tsis txaus siab, thiab qhov tseem ceeb tsis txaus siab rau kev tsav tsheb.

Peb tau muaj laj thawj los qhia qhov tseeb qhov tseeb ntawm lub neej niaj hnub no ntau dua ib zaug hauv lub lim tiam dhau los lossis yog li ntawd; raws li peb nyob ze oblivion ntawm txhais tes ntawm tsis tau lwm barger cia li tsav lub nroog lub khw tsheb.

Tej zaum yuav muaj qee qhov kev zam txim me me rau tus tswv SUV (xws li "tus neeg tsav tsheb") uas tsis pom peb qhov tsis zoo thiab petite Lotus Elise S.

Tab sis qhov bullish saib ntawm lub dials ntawm feem ntau ntawm cov neeg uas peb raug yuam kom cem hais tias lawv tsis paub txog Abrams tank.

Cov iav sab pom tau nce ntxiv raws li qhov tseem ceeb rau kev thim rov qab nres tsheb.

Yog hais tias qhov loj tshaj caveat rau muaj ib tug Lotus nyob rau hauv lub automotive metropolis's Sleepy Hollow yog qhov txaus ntshai tiag tiag ntawm kev ua ib tug SUV ceev pob, ces muaj ib tug loj txaus siab nyob rau hauv forgoing lub prevailing decadence.

Lotus, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog nkag-theem ultralight Elise S, tseem yog ib qho ntawm cov tsheb huv thiab huv tshaj plaws hauv kev siv. Yog tias koj hnov ​​​​tsw txawm tias me ntsis roj av, koj tshuav nws rau koj tus kheej kom tsav Lotus tsawg kawg ib zaug.

Txawm hais tias koj tsis tau pov tseg, tej zaum, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog tias koj tsis pov tseg, ces koj yuav tsum tau lo koj lub taub hau rau hauv ib qho. Tom qab ntawd koj yuav pom tias nws tuaj yeem ua tsis tau tsuas yog kom muaj sia nyob yam tsis muaj ntau yam khoom siv ntxiv thiab cuam tshuam uas feem ntau cov neeg caij tsheb niaj hnub tau saddled nrog, tab sis kuj muaj kev vam meej hauv txoj hauv kev uas koj yuav tsis xav txog.

Nws tsis yog hais tias Eliza ua tsis muaj subtleties. Tsis zoo li lub hardcore Exige S, daim iav saib lub nraub qaum yog qhov muaj txiaj ntsig vim tias nws muaj lub qhov rais nraub qaum uas koj tuaj yeem pom ntawm. Kuj tseem muaj lub tso suab tso suab, ob lub rooj zaum Probax, thiab txawm lub qhov rais fais fab. Nws tsuas yog tsis muaj kev phom sij ntawm kev tsis meej pem sab hauv nrog Mercedes-Benz SLK. Los yog txawm yog Mazda MX-5. Tsis zoo li lawv, tsis muaj khawm khawm lub ru tsev, nws yuav tsum tau disassembled thiab tshem tawm manually. Thiab, zoo li nrog Lotus ua tiav, koj poob dhau qhov pib mus rau hauv dab tsi yog lub cockpit, tsis yog lub cockpit.

Cov huab cua ntawm spartan functionality yog softened los ntawm xws li cov ntaub ntawv sab hauv rau lub qhov rooj thiab dashboard uas tsis ntxiv hnyav. Koj yuav tsum ua raws li cov lus pom zoo nrog koj tus neeg caij tsheb uas, yog tias nws siab, yuav tsum tau saib xyuas lawv lub hauv caug thiab lub luj tshib kom koj tuaj yeem tswj hwm lub iav qib.

Thaj, Eliza yog ib qho me me ntxim hlub. Tseeb, nyob rau hauv ci alloy tsheb qhwv nyob rau hauv 16-nti Yokohama Advan Neon log tsheb pem hauv ntej thiab 17-nti rear, nws yog ntxim hlub li ib tug xov tooj ntawm cov nyees khawm.

Yog tias Eliza tsis dag koj, tej zaum koj yuav ntxub cov menyuam dev thiab. Tig tus yuam sij, tig lub immobilizer tawm thiab ntaus lub pob pib, thiab koj yuav pom tias tsis tsuas yog tsis muaj suab nrov ntau los npog lub cav suab nrov, tab sis lub cav yog ntsia hauv nruab nrab ntawm koj lub taub hau. Nws zoo li qhov no yuav yog caij tsheb uas yuav ua rau koj lub tsheb niaj hnub zoo li Jason Recliner Rocker.

Remarkably, lub cav xaiv rau qhov no kuj pheej yig kab txawv yog tau txais los ntawm ib yam dab tsi txo hwj chim li Toyota Celica. Lub 1.8-litre VVT ​​chav tsev tsim tsuas yog 100kW / 172Nm, tab sis qhov ntawd txaus los txhawb nqa Elise mus rau 100km / h thaum sawv hauv Porsche Boxster S hauv 6.1 vib nas this. Thiab qhov kawg raug nqi $ 140,000…

Nov yog qhov tshwm sim thaum cov khoom txawv teb chaws raug muab pov tseg kom ua tiav qhov hnyav tshaj plaws ntawm txhua lub tsheb ntawm Australian txoj kev.

Eliza hnyav tsuas yog 860 kg thiab raug kev txom nyem los ntawm anorexia. Txawm li cas los xij, qhov no yuav luag ib qho kev qhia txhua hnub.

Qhov sib txawv ntawm cov tsiaj nyaum hauv nqe lus nug tau tshwm sim los ntawm kev sib xyaw ntawm Eibach springs thiab Bilstein telescopic dampers.

Elise caij ntawm nws qhov phem tshaj plaws, thaum txoj kev tuaj yeem sib tw nws, yog tias tsis yooj yim, ces nrog kev qhuab qhia zoo yam tsis muaj kev cuam tshuam txog qhov tseem ceeb ntawm Lotus qhov tseem ceeb raws li kev tswj hwm lub cev thiab kev tswj xyuas tag nrho.

Lub rigidly mounted khib thiab pinion steering yog, ntawm chav kawm, unaided thiab yog li muaj tswv yim.

2.8 tig xauv-rau-xauv, nws kuj teb tam sim ntawd thiab yog kev taw qhia kom thaum koj ua haujlwm zoo, hloov cov kev taw qhia zoo li osmosis. Thaum lub zog siab tshaj plaws, raws li nws yog, los ntawm sab saum toj revs ntawm 6200 rpm, tag nrho cov torque tuaj ntawm 4200 rpm, muab rau koj txhua qhov nruab nrab qhov koj xav tau thiab tseem tso cai rau koj siv lub iav thib tsib ntawm qee lub sijhawm.

Tsis muaj rau lub iav, tab sis koj yuav tsis xav tias qhov xav tau ntawm nws.

Txawm li cas los xij, thawb lub Elise yav dhau los 5000 rpm, raws li Vajtswv tau npaj, txhais tau hais tias sau cov cua daj cua dub ntawm kev nrawm nrawm thiab lub suab nrov nrov kom txog thaum lub teeb ceeb toom flashes ntawm kab liab.

Qhov overkill no txhais rau hauv qhov nres pedal uas tsuas muaj qhov tsim nyog ntawm deceleration ua rau nws ua ntej ABS qhov pib ua txhaum cai. Cov kev paub ntawm Elise yog visceral nyob rau hauv qhov kev nkag siab tias lub tsheb peb xaiv raws li kev xav "rivals" raug tshem tawm ntawm huab cua nyias. Txhua tus ntawm lawv muab nqi zog rau lawv tus kheej, tab sis tsis muaj leej twg ua raws li tus kheej thiab kev ua phem. Tsis tshua muaj nws txias heev ua li ntawd "tsis-Australia".

Cov kab hauv qab

Yog tias $70,000 zoo li ntau dhau lawm, nco ntsoov tias koj tseem tuaj yeem yuav lub khw muag khoom noj thiab tseem muaj kev hloov pauv ntawm $ 100,000.
