Ngomhla iVolkswagen ityhila i Isizukulwana se-8 seGalufa, sagqiba ekubeni sikhumbule ukutolika okumangalisayo kwesizukulwana sokuqala semodeli edumileyo yaseJamani. Indalo enokuthi ibenotyikityo lwenjineli yokuyila uFranco Sbarro. Kwiminyaka ye-80, iiprojekthi ezikhethekileyo zazikunye naye.
Uzalelwe e-Italiya, uFranco Sbarro, owasekwa ngo-1971 inkampani yeemoto ezincinci, ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, ibe noxanduva lweyona ndalo inomtsalane kwishishini leemoto - ayisoloko ingenxa yezizathu ezilungileyo, yinyani.
Kodwa kulo lonke uyilo lwayo, le Volkswagen Golf Turbo Sbarro mhlawumbi yeyona inomtsalane.
Yonke le nto yaqala ngowe-1982, xa umthengi owayeneepokotho ezinzulu nolangazelela ngakumbi ukuchitha imali wankqonkqoza kumnyango kaSbarro. Uza kwenza malini? Bendifuna iVolkswagen Golf MK1 exhotyiswe ngenjini esuka kwiPorsche 911 Turbo.
Wayonkqonkqoza kumnyango wasekunene. UFranco Sbarro akazange ajike kumngeni kwaye wavuma ukuthatha umzimba we-Volkswagen Golf ye-1975 kwaye ingene ngaphakathi - ngandlela-thile ... - i-injini ye-cylinder emithandathu echasayo ene-3.3 ilitha yomthamo kunye ne-300 hp.
Ngenxa yokunqongophala kwendawo ngaphambili, isisombululo awasifumanayo u-Sbarro kukubeka injini kwindawo esembindini ngasemva, ngokwendalo erhoxa izitulo ezingasemva. Kodwa umsebenzi woomatshini awuzange uphelele apho. Ugqithiso olunesantya esine olungena yonke iPorsche 911 Turbo de kwangowe-1988 inike indlela kwibhokisi yegiya ye-ZF DS25 enesantya ezintlanu (ezuzwe kwi-BMW M1).
Ngenxa yolu hlengahlengiso, iVolkswagen Golf Turbo Sbarro iphumelele a isantya esiphezulu se-250 km/h kwaye safikelela ku-0-100 km/h ngaphantsi kwemizuzwana emithandathu.
Ukupholisa i-injini, uFranco Sbarro wasebenzisa iindlela ezimbini zokungenisa umoya ezilumkileyo kwicala lemodeli. Kwaye akukho nto ishiywe ngamabona-ndenzile, kwaye ayinayo ibhalansi eguqukayo. Ndiyabulela ekubekweni okuphakathi kwe-injini ye-flat-six, kunye nokuhamba kwezinto ezifana netanki yamafutha ukuya kwi-axle yangaphambili, ukuhanjiswa kobunzima bokugqibela kwakuyi-50/50.
Bhalisa kwincwadana yethu
Kuba ukukhawulezisa kubaluleke njengokumisa, inkqubo yokuqhobosha nayo iye yalungiswa ngokupheleleyo. IGalufa encinci yeVolkswagen ifumene iseti yeziqhoboshi ezinediskhi ezine umoya, ezinobukhulu obungama-320 mm kwi-asi engaphambili. Ngaphezulu kwamandla okwaneleyo ukumisa «umdla» 1300 kg ubunzima.
Ukufakela amavili amahle e-15-intshi ye-BBS, sifumene ivili lePirelli P7. Kodwa eyona nkcukacha ichukumisayo yayifihlwe...
Enkosi kubuchwephesha be-hydraulic system, kube nokwenzeka ukuphakamisa umva weGolf Sbarro emoyeni usebenzisa iqhosha elingaphakathi. Ngokutsho kuka-Sbarro, kwakunokwenzeka ukuqhawula injini kwimizuzu nje eyi-15.
Kwiminyaka engama-35 emva kokubonakala kwayo, inyaniso kukuba iVolkswagen Golf Sbarro iyaqhubeka nokuchukumisa njengoko yenzayo ngosuku lokuqala. Ingaba uyavumelana?
