Emva kokuba sikuxelele nge-Opel Calibra, namhlanje sibuyela "kumatshini wexesha" kwaye sikhumbula enye ikopi yophawu lwaseJamani olwavela kwiminyaka embalwa kamva, umntakwabo omncinci (kwaye uphumelele ngakumbi), Opel Tigra.
Yatyhilwa njengomfuziselo (okungekho ngaphezulu kwemodeli yemveliso “engaphantsi”) ngo-1993 iFrankfurt Motor Show - apho yayikhatshwa yindlela ebukekayo yasehlotyeni - imvume yoluntu yayingenakuba ngcono. Ngelixa yayikungcakaza okuyingozi kwi-niche enevolumu ephantsi, kwakubonakala ngathi i-Opel inomphumeleleyo phakathi kwezandla.
Kunyaka emva koko, ngo-1994, i-Opel Tigra yabetha imarike kwaye yakhawuleza yenza i-legion yabalandeli - kunye noluhlu lwabalindileyo ... Ngaphandle kokuba i-compact coupé yokuqala ukuya kwimarike, wayenoxanduva "lokuvusa" i-niche ye-coupes ezincinci. , inika abachasi abatsha, njengeFord Puma eya kugqiba ukuba ngomnye wabalinganiswa bayo.
Ngubani obona abafana...
Njengazo zonke ezinye ii-coupes kwimbali ye-Opel, i-Opel Tigra nayo yaqala kwisiqalo esiphantsi. Ke ngelixa i-Manta yayisekelwe kwi-Ascona, i-GT yathatha amacandelo e-Kadett, kunye ne-Calibra evela kwi-Vectra, ngaphantsi kwe-bodywork yayo ebukekayo kunye nenamandla, i-Opel Tigra yayingekho ngaphantsi kwe UCorsa B.
Nantsi iprototype eyayilindelekile i-Opel Tigra kwi-1993 Frankfurt Motor Show.
Ngaphandle, oku kuqhelana kwakungenakwenzeka ukuba kubonwe, njengoko iTigra kunye neCorsa B abazange babelane ngephaneli yomzimba omnye. Nangona kunjalo, umlinganiselo weteyiphu awukhohlisi: i-wheelbase (2.44 m) kunye nobubanzi (1.60 m) yayifana. Kodwa iTigra yayinde (3.91 m ngokuchasene ne-3.73 m) kwaye imfutshane kakhulu (1.34 m ngokuchasene ne-1.42 m).
Ekuphela kwezinto ezifanayo zangaphandle yayizizalathisi ezisecaleni kunye… izibambo zocango (ezaziguqukile phantse kulo lonke uluhlu lweOpel).
Bhalisa kwincwadana yethu
Ngaphakathi, kwelinye icala, zaziphantse zifane. Ideshibhodi yayifana nesetyenziswa yiCorsa kwaye kuphela i-sportier quadrant (nangona inombutho ofanayo wendawo), iilinen ezahlukeneyo kunye noyilo lwe-2+2 yayiyiyantlukwano xa kuthelekiswa ne-utilitarian yaseJamani.
Ekugqibeleni, ukudityaniswa komhlaba kwaqinisekiswa ngokunqunyanyiswa ngendlela efanayo naleyo yomntakwabo. Emva kwexesha, nangona kunjalo, ukusuka ngo-1997 ukuya phambili, zombini i-Tigra kunye ne-Corsa B baya kufumana isitampu esiphezulu esiguqukayo, ngoncedo longenelelo lwe-Lotus - yinto nje ebuhlungu ukuba ayizange yenze into efanayo ne-Lotus Omega.
Oomatshini? Ilifa kunjalo!
Njengeqonga, oomatshini abasetyenziswa yi-Opel Tigra nabo bavela kwi-Corsa B. Ngaloo ndlela, i-Tigra yayineenjini ezimbini, i-1.4 l kunye ne-1.6 l (oku kwathengiswa kuphela ngo-1998), zombini zisebenza ngepetroli. Kolu nikezelo kukho i-1.2 l exhobise isiseko seenguqulelo zeCorsa kwaye, ewe, iinjini zedizili ezidumileyo zakwa-Isuzu ezixhobise isithuthi saseJamani.
Nantsi iprototype yeTigra Roadster etyhilwe ngo-1993.
Ukuqala nge-1.4 l, le yatsala i-90 hp kunye ne-Nm eyi-125. Sele iphezulu kunikezelo yi-1.6 l esetyenziswa yi-Corsa GSi yangoku ene-106 hp kunye ne-148 Nm.
Kuzo zombini ezi meko usasazo lwaluphathwa nokuba yi-auto-speed four-automatic okanye i-five-speed manual. Xa ixhotyiswe nge-1.4 l, iTigra izalisekise i-0 ukuya kwi-100 km/h kwii-11.5s kwaye ifikelele kwi-190 km/h. Nge-1.6 l i-100 km/h ifike nge-9.4s kwaye isantya esiphezulu sinyuke saya ku-203 km/h.
enye itigra
Njengoko bekulindelekile, isibheno se-Opel Tigra besisikhulu. Akumangalisi ukuba isetyenziswe njengesiseko sezinye iiprojekthi. Enye yazo yayiyi-Tigra V6, iprototype ene-back-wheel drive kunye ne-V6 ene-3.0 l kunye ne-208 hp kwindawo esembindini.
Enye yeeprojekthi eziphuhliswe ngokusekelwe kwi-Opel Tigra yayiyi-pick-up variant eyenziwe ngu-Irmscher ngokusekelwe kumsebenzi omncinci ... umyili wePutukezi (apha ndibhala kwimemori kwaye ndibhenela kuwe: ukuba uyazi igama lakhe, don. Ungathandabuzi ukuqhagamshelana naye kuba singathanda ukubalisa ibali lakho ngokubanzi).
Isiphelo kunye nokubuya kweTigra
Yaziswa ngo-1994, isizukulwana sokuqala se-Opel Tigra saveliswa de kwangowe-2001, unyaka apho yahlaziywa khona ngaphandle kokushiya umlandeli. Lilonke, iiyunithi ze-256 392 zesizukulwana sokuqala se-coupé encinci yaseJamani zathengiswa, inani elikhulu lesithuthi esithathwa njenge-niche.
Nangona kunjalo, ibali le-Opel Tigra aliyi kuphela kwisizukulwana sokuqala. Ngo-2004, igama le-Tigra labuya, lifumana ifomula efanayo yokusebenzisa isiseko se-Corsa ukwenza imodeli eyahlukileyo, enesitayile esingaphezulu-ifomula yafunyanwa, kodwa impumelelo ayizange...
Ukucinga ukuba ifomathi eyayisefashonini ngelo xesha, leyo yokuguqulwa komphezulu wentsimbi, iTigra Twintop ayiphumelelanga ukukholisa, ithengisa kuphela iiyunithi ezingama-90 874 phakathi kuka-2004 no-2009.
Ngokujonga kakuhle, kodwa kude nobuhle, amandla kunye nokungahloneli kwe-Tigra yokuqala, i-Twintop yaze yanikezela "kwi-charms" yeenjini ze-Diesel (1.3 CDTI kunye ne-70 hp kuphela) - ngexesha lokuthengisa. yolu hlobo injini enye yakhula kakhulu eYurophu - kodwa nokuba oko akuzange kubonakale ukunceda ukuthengisa. Inyaniso kukuba, ngokungafaniyo ne-Tigra yokuqala, i-Twintop iphantse ayizange ibonwe ...
Ngaba iTigra ingabuya?
Ukhumbula ukuba imbangi enkulu ye-Opel Tigra, i Ford Puma , ibe yi-compact SUV/crossover, ngaba sifuna iTigra ibuye? Akukho ndawo kwimarike yangoku yee-coupes ezincinci; kubonakala ngathi kukho indawo yee-crossovers kunye neeSUVs.
Masikunike umgangatho: ngaba uOpel kufuneka alibuyise igama leTigra ngokulibeka kwi-compact crossover/SUV?
