Bona into eyajika yaba “lidada elibi” lePorsche kwiminyaka yoo-90!
Xa i-Porsche yazisa isizukulwana sokuqala i-Porsche Boxster ngo-1996, abona balandeli be-brand yaseStuttgart bavutha ngokuchasene nemodeli. Babekugqala njengoqhekeko nokungcatsha eyona milinganiselo isisiseko yolu phawu. Bakhalazela yonke into. Ukususela kwindawo esembindini ye-injini, ukungabikho kwamandla emoto, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo, ikholaji eyenziwa ngu "bastard" kwi-design ye-iconic Porsche 911. Phantse yonke into yayithethwa ngexesha malunga neBoxster ... yayiyimodeli eyayihlala emthunzini wezinto zakhe ezinqabileyo eziphumelele ngumntakwabo omdala, i-911. YayiyiPorsche yabo bangenayo imali yokuthenga i-911, njl. Abahluphekileyo, abakhange baphuphe into eyayibagcinelwe yinkulungwane yama-21… IiSUV neesedan ezixhotyiswe ngenjini yeVolkswagen!
Kodwa ixesha lahamba, kwaye abo babekhe bagxeka i-Porsche ngokuqalisa ubuxoki obunjalo, namhlanje banikezela kwiimpawu ze-roadster "encinci". Indlela yokuziphatha kunye nokusebenza kukaBoxter kuphuculwe kakhulu okanye kuncinci kwisizukulwana sesibini nesangoku (987) kangangokuba kwezinye iinguqulelo elona lungu lincinci losapho linokwenza ubomi bube nzima kumkhuluwa wakhe kwiindlela zasentabeni. Hayi kakubi huh? Kwaye ukuba isizukulwana sesibini kunye nesangoku iBoxter (987) yaphawulwa ngendibano yemvumelwano ethe yaphunyezwa, isizukulwana sesithathu iBoxster (981) ngokuqinisekileyo siya kumakishwa ngokungqinwa kweBoxster njengophawu olupheleleyo lomnombo wemoto yezemidlalo yakwaPorsche.
Ukushiya iinyani zembali kwelinye ixesha, yintoni le i Boxster entsha isiphathele yona? Okokuqala, i-Porsche ibhengeza ukuba ngenxa yokwaziswa kobuchwepheshe obutsha obuhambelana nokusingqongileyo, isizukulwana esitsha se-Boxster sibonakalisa ukuphuculwa kokusebenza kwamandla ngokulandelelana kwe-15%. Ukuzuza okuphunyeziweyo ngokunciphisa ubunzima be-chassis, ukufakela inkqubo yokuvuselela amandla ngexesha lokunyathela, inkqubo yokumisa phantse "isinyanzelo", kwaye ekugqibeleni, inkqubo ejongene nokulawula ubushushu obufanelekileyo bokusebenza kweyunithi yokuqhuba.
Kodwa inyaniso mayixelwe, nabani na ofuna ukonga uthenga iToyota Prius ekruqulayo kwaye “eluhlaza”. Ngoko makhe sithethe ngeyona nto ibalulekileyo: inzuzo. Masiqale nge-chassis!
I-Boxster entsha, ukongeza ekubhengezeni ukuncipha kweseti xa kuthelekiswa nesizukulwana esiyekile ukusebenza ngoku - iinzuzo ngokwemiqathango yobulukhuni besakhiwo ayinakukhutshelwa ngaphandle - ikwabhengeza ukukhula kwi-chassis phantse kuzo zonke iindlela.
I-Boxster entsha ikhule kwi-wheelbase nakwi-wheelbase, nto leyo ethetha ukuba inde kwaye ibanzi. Kwangaxeshanye iPorsche ikwabhengeza ukuba iPorsche entsha iya kuba sezantsi kakhulu kunemodeli yangoku. Zonke ezi zinto zidibene zibonisa iinzuzo ezinkulu malunga nozinzo kunye nokuphathwa kwesethi, xa kuthelekiswa nesizukulwana se-897, esiyeka ukusebenza ngoku. Ke into ebisele ilungile, ibengcono...
Ngokwe-injini, akukho ndaba zinkulu, ubuncinci kwesi sigaba sokuqaliswa. I-base version, ene-6-cylinder kunye ne-2,700cc Boxer injini, ibhalisa inzuzo ye-10hp xa kuthelekiswa neyandulelayo, ukusuka kwi-255hp yangaphambili ukuya kwi-265hp enobungane. Inguqulo enamandla ngakumbi, eya kubizwa ngokuba yi-Boxster S, iya kuba ne-injini "i-spicier" encinci kwaye ithwala isizukulwana sangaphambili. Iya kuba yibhokisi yethu eyaziwayo ye-6-cylinder kunye ne-3,400cc, ngoku i-debiting figure enhle ye-315hp. Ngaba i-Porsche inokuthi ihambe phambili ekuveleni kweenjini? Inokuthi, kodwa emva koko yaqala ukungena kwintsimi ye-911. Kwaye ukukhuphisana ngokuthengisa, ukhuphiswano lwangaphandle lwanele, makubekho ukuba nomchasi ngaphakathi, akunjalo?
Onke la manani aguqulelwe kwi-benefits akhokelela kwi-acceleration ukusuka ku-0-100km/h kwi-5.7sec. kunye ne-5.0sec, kuxhomekeke kwi-injini. Kwaye kubhengezwe ukusetyenziswa malunga ne-7.7l/100km kweyona injini incinci, kunye ne-8.0l/100km kweyona njini inamandla ye-Boxster S.
Ngokubhekiselele kwizixhobo, iqulethe eyona iPorsche inokunikela. I-PDK eyaziwayo kwaye iyamangalisa i-gearbox ye-double-clutch gearbox, kunye nazo zonke ezinye iinkqubo ezaziwayo zesizukulwana sangoku ezifana nokumiswa kwePASM, okanye ipakethe yeChrono-Plus. Sigxininisa ukhetho oluyi "lunyanzeliso" kubathandi bokuqhuba "ngokukhawuleza". Sithetha ngePorsche Torque Vectorial (PTV) engeyonto ngaphandle kokwahluka komatshini wokutshixa othembisa ukuphakamisa ngakumbi iimotor zale modeli.
Amaxabiso achazwe ePortugal yi-64 800 ye-euro kwi-2.7 kunye ne-82 700 ye-euro ye-S version, oku ngaphandle kwenketho, kunjalo. Ukuqala kokuthengiswa kwayo kucwangciselwe u-Epreli.
