Elinye lawona mabali angaqhelekanga evekini liza kuthi livela eFlorida, eUnited States of America, elifunyenwe yi-Drive portal. Injini ye-V6 yeJeep Wrangler Rubicon yanyuswa ngaphezu kwe-50,000 rpm kwaye yaqhuma, kunye neekhilomitha ezingaphantsi kwe-16,000 kwi-odometer.
Ibhloko ye-3.6 litre ye-V6 Pentastar yenye yezona zisetyenziswa kakhulu yi-Jeep kuluhlu lwemveliso kwaye inomgca obomvu ojikeleze i-6600 rpm. Kodwa umnini we-Wrangler Rubicon oneenkwenkwezi kweli bali uye wanyanzelisa kumanqanaba apho lo matshini we-silinda-cylinder engazange ahambe ngaphambili.
Ngaphandle kokujonga "intsha kraca" ngaphandle, le Wrangler ineenjini itshatyalaliswe ngokupheleleyo. emva kokutsalwa gwenxa.
Yenzeka njani yonke le nto?
Umnini wale nqwelo-mafutha wafuna ukuyithatha ngeholide waza wayitsala ngemoto yakhe. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku kuhle kakhulu, okanye ibingeyonto iqhelekileyo le kumhlaba “kaMalume Sam”, owaziwa ngokuba yiflat towing.
Kodwa kuvela ukuba lo Wrangler watsalwa ngegiya ebambene - I-4-Indawo ephantsi - eyenzelwe, njengoko iyaziwa, ukwenzela ukuba "kancinci kwaye ngokukhawuleza" umntu anqobe imiqobo enzima kakhulu ngaphandle kwendlela.
Ethetha noThe Drive, uToby Tuten, ophethe iworkshop efumene le Wrangler, uthe akapheleli nje ephethe iibhokisi zegiya, kodwa ebesebenzisa igiya yokuqala — oko kukuthi, injini ibijikajika. Qaphela ukuba i-Jeep icebisa ukuba xa ku-4-Low ingagqithi kwi-40 km/h (kodwa ngokuqinisekileyo hayi ekuqaleni).
Ukubala ngokukhawuleza, ukuba i-motorhome iyitsale kuhola wendlela malunga ne-88 km/h (50 mph), amavili e-Wrangler ayenokunyanzela injini ukuba ijikeleze ngaphezu kwe-54,000 rpm! Oko kungaphezulu kwamaxesha asibhozo ngaphezu komda we-injini.
umonakalo uyachukumisa
Umonakalo owenziweyo uyamangalisa kwaye ayisiyiyo into oyibona yonke imihla (okanye!). Iipiston ezimbini kwezintandathu zadlula kwibhloko yenjini, ityesi yokudlulisa yaqhuma, kwaye i-clutch kunye ne-flywheel zadutyulwa kwityala lothumelo.
Ngokutsho kukaToby Tuten, ukulungiswa kuxabisa i-25 000 ye-euro kwaye oku kuphambi kokongeza umsebenzi. Kwaye ekubeni lo monakalo awugqunywanga kwiwaranti yefektri yeJeep, inkampani yeinshurensi iya kubanga ukuba le Wrangler yonakele.
