Sagingqika emadwaleni ambozwe u-moss futhi sehla ezingodini ezishelelayo, sizulazula kancane, umsindo wama-turbocharger kanye nokugeleza kwamagesi okukhipha umoya kuwukuphela kwemisindo ezwakala ngokuduma kwe-limestone ngaphansi kwamasondo. Ndawana-thile eduze nesiqongo, uklebe obomvu wamemeza exwayisa njengoba imoto yethu ehamba phambili ibheka enyakatho ikhuphuka ukhakhayi. Usuku oluhle lokushayela i-SUV engu-$250,000, uma ubheka ngentshebe kaZeus, ubonakala ejabule endle njengathi.
Kunoma ikuphi, kwaba sengathi sisenkabeni yeHlathi Elimnyama eJalimane, elinamathani amaningi ombhede, inkungu, ubulembu nezintaba nxazonke. Ngamahektha angu-270 emizila kanye nokuhlolwa okungapheli okungaphandle komgwaqo e-Northern Kentucky's Dirty Turtle Off-Road Park, abafana base-All-Terrain Outfitters basebenza njengezimoto eziyinhloko zokuhlenga/ezibonwayo futhi sesilungele ukusebenzisa ama-Avatars ethu angu-4×4². . css-p0u9qf {-webkit-text-decoration: dwebela; umbhalo-ukuhlobisa: dwebela; umbhalo-umhlobiso-ubukhulu:.0625rem; umbhalo-wokuhlobisa-umbala: #595959; umbhalo-dwebela-i-offset: 0.25rem umbala: #595959 ;-webkit-transition:ingemuva 0.4s;ushintsho:ingemuva 0.4s;ingemuva:i-linear gradient(#ffffff, #ffffff 50%, #FFC84E 50%, #FFC84E); -isizinda sewebhu -usayizi:100% 200%; usayizi wangemuva: 100% 200%;}.css-p0u9qf:hover {umbala: #000000; umbhalo-wokuhlobisa-umbala: #000000; -webkit-ingemuva-isikhundla: 100% 100%; Isizinda-isikhundla: 100% 100%; } I-Dirty Dess-Benz G-Wagen Tempo.
Nakuba umphakathi omningi wawucasukile noma ushaya ihlombe lapho ubona imali ebolekiwe yaseJalimane enkulu, abangani abaseduze bamangala lapho bezwa ukuthi ngempela sizobe sithatha i-SUV engekho emgwaqweni engu-$250,000. Ngokwemvelo, siye salahla abazondayo nama-naysayers futhi sahlola i-G550 4×4² njengokubili umshayeli wansuku zonke kanye ne-bi-turbo enodaka roller.
Injabulo yakamuva yesizukulwane esiphumayo se-G-Wagen wumsebenzi wokweqisa kanye nokubalula. Le G-Wagen esuswe impi, nekhabethe layo le-posh kanye nemilenze ye-Unimog, ngokungangabazeki ingelinye lamaloli angcono kakhulu angathengwa ngemali - inqobo nje uma unenqwaba yawo.
Ihlonyiswe ngayo yonke into kusukela kuma-carbon fiber fenders kuya ekumisweni kokushaqeka kwe-KW twin-tube okulungisekayo, i-4×4² ihlanganisa isitayela sesidlali samandla se-brash, kokubili ekubukekeni nasekusebenzeni. Ngeshwa, ingxenye yokuqala yokubuyekeza kwethu izoba mayelana nendlela yokugibela emgwaqweni, njengoba abantu abaningi abakwazi ukuthenga lezi zilwane bavame ukuzulazula edolobheni kunokufunda ukusebenzisa ilokha yakwa-G ngokungaguquki.
Emgwaqeni nasezindaweni zasemadolobheni, i-4×4² idlula izimoto eziningi esigabeni sayo. Noma kunjalo, naphezu kokuphakama kwayo okuhlaba umxhwele, ubukhulu obukhulu, kanye nokudlala kwesibambo okungagwemeki, uma usujwayele ukuphakama kwe-G's 7'4″ kanye nobubanzi obucishe bufane, kulula ukukuphatha ngendlela emangalisayo. Kubalulekile ukukhumbula ukuthi leli thangi “liyisikwele” ngesizathu esithile, futhi izindawo eziningi zokupaka ngeke zililingane, ngakho ukuthola indawo yokupaka efanelekile kungathatha isikhashana.
Uma sithi “silula”, asidlali. Azikho izilungiselelo ze-HUD noma zomshayeli ezingashintshwa. Heck, le nto ayinakho ngisho nokulawula uhambo lwemikhumbi—amabhuleki namaphedali egesi kuphela, isondo lokuqondisa, nezinye izinto zokushintsha ingxubevange zikanokusho kuso sonke isimo sezulu nesimo sokushayela. Izilawuli zabashayeli zilandela ifilosofi efanayo ne-G Bodyline. Lena indlela elula kakhulu yokushayela imoto yesikole esidala ephefumula amaqhawe angempelasonto.
Mayelana nezinketho, i-G yethu ifike nokuthuthukiswa okukodwa okungu-$6,500: upende wensimbi omangalisayo we-Paprika. Okusongwe ngalowo mbala obomvana, nama-carbon fenders avala amabhuleki amakhulu abomvu ngokugqamile, ama-damper amashubhu amabili nama-springs alunguza ngemuva kwamasondo ayingqayizivele angama-intshi angu-22, uzothola umbukiso omningi ngawo wonke ama-V8 Biturbos anyakazayo.
Ngempela. Hamba ku-accelerator futhi uphakele ngenkani ama-rotor e-Mercedes V8 aqhubezela ama-turbocharger afakwe phakathi nendawo abe namandla angu-416 kanye ne-torque engu-450 lb. Uma wenza kanjalo, lindela izinombolo ezisebenza kahle ukuthi zehlele edijithini eyodwa evamile yerempu yokusheshisa, ngenxa yesisindo somngcele we-4×4² esilinganayo kanye nokudluliswa okungapheli kwedrayivu wonke. Nyathela ngobumnene i-gas pedal futhi i-EPA icabanga ukuthi uzothola 11 mpg edolobheni nasemgwaqweni omkhulu.
Ngenxa yejiyomethri yokumiswa okwedlulele kanye nokulinganiswa kwesiteringi, umdlalo ozwakalayo ngenkathi ushayela ungase ube nokudida kancane ekuqaleni kulabo abangakaze bashayele i-SUV nge-lift ngaphambilini. Nakuba ukushintshela kusethingi yezemidlalo ene-electronic damping kunciphisa ukugoqeka komzimba nokuphinde kuboshwe, ukulungisa okuthile kwamadampasi e-KW alungisekayo kungase kulungele uma ungafuni ukuqina kwe-Focus RS.
Ingaphakathi le-G linobuchwepheshe beMercedes-Benz bokunethezeka nobuwusizo. Izihlalo zesiginesha ezishisisiwe futhi zifakwe umoya we-4 × 4² ze-suede ezinama-bolster aguquguqukayo kanye nemichilo ye-carbon fibre eminyene ziyizibonelo ezinhle, kodwa ikhabethe linalokho esingakubiza ngokuthi izinketho ezixakile.
Isibonelo, i-tailgate enama-hinged ingama-intshi angu-36 kuphela ububanzi ngenxa yobubanzi obulinganiselwe bokushwibeka, i-latch eyengeziwe kanye nokujula komnyango ngokwawo. Ingosi enkulu evaliwe yenze ukulayisha kwaba nzima kakhulu, njengoba ibingakwazi ukuvulwa eceleni njengamaloli namaveni aqandisiwe.
Okunye okucasulayo ukwehlisa okuzenzakalelayo kodwa akuphakamisi, amawindi kanye ne-sunroof, izihlalo zangemuva ezingalungiseki (okushiya ama-intshi angu-41.9 kuphela i-legroom elinganiselwe) kanye nendawo yokuhlala engakhululekile, ecishe iqonde ngokuphelele. Okokugcina, ukupaka into enkulu ngale ndlela ngaphandle kwekhamera engu-360-degree nakho kungase kube ukuwohloka kwemizwa kancane. Ngerediyasi ephendukayo eqhathaniswa nesitimela sesitimela kanye nesisindo somgwaqo esingamaphawundi angu-6,825, i-G izwa ngokufana.
Ikhanda elibuhlungu emadolobheni kanye namaphutha edizayini eceleni, siqhubekela esigabeni esingekho emgwaqeni salokhu kubuyekezwa, lapho i-4×4² itshuza ngezimfoloko nemibese isilungile. Sekungamashumi eminyaka, i-Geländewagen iyinqola yekhethelo yamabutho emhlabeni wonke, sibonga kakhulu ngokuhlukana kwayo kokukhiya kathathu. Nakuba kunconywa ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu ukuthi ushiye amalokha angaphambili ngenxa yokuhamba okulinganiselwe, umsindo, njll., imvula enamandla nemizila egcwele i-limestone idinga ukuhlanganyela lapho sesifinyelele umzila wokuqala.
Ukushayela ungekho emgwaqeni ngaphansi kwezimo ezimbi kangaka kuyilapho ujabulela ukunethezeka kweMercedes-Benz engu-$250,000 kufana nokubhulashwa ngosilika wasePheresiya. Kusukela emqanseni owaqala ngalolo suku, inunu yasidlula, kuyilapho izihlalo eziphefumulayo zizipholisa okhalweni futhi umculo we-Mozart wawugcwele izindlebe zethu.
Ngamapuleti e-skid angaphambili aqinisiwe, ama-axle ephothali, ama-exhauss abambayo nasongekayo nhlangothi zombili, kanye ne-Mansfield stainless steel grille eqinile ngemuva, le G inokuningi ongakuthanda uma uthanda isihlalo esijwayelekile sangaphandle komgwaqo. Ukucaciswa kwamasondo, amaphoyinti aqhekezayo, izibuko eziseceleni ezigoqeka ngamandla, ukulungiswa kwebanga eliphansi kanye ne-18-inch ground clearance konke kwenza i-4×4² ibe umshini okwazi ukusebenza ngaphandle komgwaqo, one-exhaust purring njalo uma ucindezela i-accelerator pedal.
Okuwukuphela kwezithiyo esahlangabezana nazo ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa kwethu cishe amahora amahlanu ungekho emgwaqeni kwakuyindawo ejikayo yemoto, kudingeke sihlale sikhathazeke ngobubanzi beSUV obungu-86.2 inch, kanye nezinkinga zokuvunyelwa komhlaba nezibambo zangemuva zaseMansfield, kuhlangene nokuntula ukubamba. ekukhuphukeni kwamagquma. ngamathayi ePirelli Scorpion angaphandle komgwaqo. Okunye okubanjwayo: ngezinye izikhathi uma ufika esiqongweni segquma, ikhamera eshayela ngaphambili iza kahle, ikakhulukazi uma isihlalo sonogada wezokuphepha singatholakali.
Kubathengi bama-SUV aphambili, i-4×4² ngokungangabazeki ingenye yezinketho ezingenamahloni nezimbi kakhulu ezingathengwa ngemali. Indoda eyasindisa i-G-Wagen kabili yasho kanye kabili ukuthi isizathu esiyinhloko sokuthi ikhethe i-4×4² ngaphezu kwanoma iyiphi enye imoto, akukhona ukuthi iyakwazi ukuhamba emgwaqweni noma iwubukhazikhazi, kodwa ngoba kubukeka sengathi yaklanywa ingane eneminyaka emihlanu ubudala. . I-Bulky, i-boxy, futhi eyakhelwe ukushaywa, le moto yaseJalimane engahlosiwe iyinqola abantu abayithandayo noma abazondayo, hhayi nje ngenxa yokunganeliseki kwayo kwegesi enhle, kodwa futhi isekelwe cishe ngokuphelele ekubukeni kwayo.
Okwaqala njengomshini wempi ohlulekile sekuphenduke inunu. Yize isizukulwane esisha sesichezukile kancane ezimpandeni zaso zeminyaka engu-40, kufanele uhloniphe iqiniso lokuthi le SUV ingenye yezindaba eziyimpumelelo enkulu emlandweni wezimoto. Akuphelele, akunakwenzeka, kuyabiza, kunamandla, kuyamangaza, kuyanyanyeka, akusebenzi kahle, kubi, kuyahlanya, kuyamangaza – wonke lawa magama angasetshenziswa ukuchaza inguqulo ye-4×4² Geländewagen. Uyazi? Akanendaba nokuthi ucabangani ngaye noma ugibele bani.
