Muva nje, iFerrari icishe yaqinisekisa, nge-CEO yayo uSergio Marchionne, ukuthi izokwenza into engeke ikwenze: iSUV. Noma njengoba uFerrari esho, i-FUV (Ferrari Utility Vehicle). Kodwa-ke, nakuba selikhona (ngokusobala) igama lekhodi lephrojekthi - F16X -, akukabikho isiqinisekiso esiphelele sokuthi kuzokwenzeka.
Engxenyeni yokuqala yonyaka ozayo, uhlelo lwesu lomkhiqizo luzokwethulwa kuze kube ngu-2022, lapho kuzocaciswa konke ukungabaza nge-F16X. Futhi sizokwazi okwengeziwe ngomunye umsebenzi osekukhulunywe ngakho isikhathi eside ngaphandle kwesixazululo esisobala: ukubuya kuka-Dino.
I-Dino yayingumzamo kaFerrari, ngasekupheleni kwawo-1960, ukwakha uhlobo lwezimoto zezemidlalo lwesibili oluthengekayo. Namuhla, ukubuyisela igama le-Dino kuzoba nenjongo yokudala izinga elisha lokufinyelela ku-Ferrari. Futhi uma esikhathini esedlule, uMarchionne uthe kwakungewona umbuzo wokuthi kuzokwenzeka noma cha, kodwa kuphela nini, namuhla akusenjalo.
Umbono we-Dino entsha uhlangane, ngokumangazayo, ukumelana kwangaphakathi. Ngokusho kukaMarchionne, imodeli enjalo ingaba nomthelela omubi esithombeni somkhiqizo, inciphise ukuhluka kwayo. Futhi lokho kuzokwenzeka ngoba i-Dino entsha izoba nenani lokungena elingama-euro angama-40 kuye kwangama-50,000 ngaphansi kwe-California T.
umhlaba ubheke phansi
Ake sibuyekeze: i-Dino entsha, ukufinyeleleka kakhudlwana, ingaba yingozi esithombeni somkhiqizo, kodwa i-SU… sorry, cha FUV? Kunengqondo enzima ukuyiqonda, ngoba zombili iziphakamiso zibandakanya ukwanda kokukhiqiza, kodwa yonke into yenza umqondo owengeziwe uma sinomshini wokubala esandleni.
IFerrari isesimweni sezimali. Inzuzo yayo iyaqhubeka nokukhula unyaka nonyaka, njengoba kwenza intengo yayo yesitoko, kodwa i-Marchionne ifuna okwengeziwe, okuningi kakhulu. Inhloso yawo ukuphinda kabili inzuzo yomkhiqizo ekuqaleni kweminyaka eyishumi ezayo. Kulokhu, ukunwetshwa kobubanzi - kungakhathaliseki ukuthi i-FUV noma i-Dino - kuzohambisana nokwanda kokukhiqizwa.
Futhi uma uphahla oluphezulu lwamayunithi ayi-10,000 ngo-2020 bekukhulunywe ngalo esikhathini esingengakanani edlule - ngokuhlakanipha nangokuligcina ngokusemthethweni njengomakhi omncane - khona-ke ukunweba ububanzi kuzobona lowo mgoqo udlulwa kakhulu. Futhi lokho kunemiphumela.
Njengomkhiqizi omncane onjalo - i-Ferrari manje isizimele, ngaphandle kwe-FCA - ikhululiwe ekuthobelani nohlelo olufanayo lokunciphisa ukukhishwa okuphumayo njengabakhiqizi bevolumu enkulu. Yebo, kufanele kunciphise ukukhishwa kwayo, kodwa izinhloso zihlukile, kuxoxwe ngazo ngqo nezinhlaka ezilawulayo.
Ukweqa amayunithi ayi-10,000 ngonyaka nakho kusho ukuhlangabezana nezidingo ezifanayo nezinye. Futhi njengoba ingaphandle kwe-FCA, ayikwazi ukuthembela ekuthengisweni kwe-Fiat 500s encane ngezibalo zayo ezikhishwayo. Uma lesi sinqumo siqinisekiswa, kuyamangaza ukuthi lokhu kubhekwa.
Uma izinombolo ezinkulu zizoqinisekiswa kulayini wokukhiqiza, i-SUV iwukubheja okuphephile futhi okunenzuzo enkulu kunemoto yezemidlalo - akukho ngxoxo. Kodwa-ke, kungase kubonakale kuphambene, nezidingo ezikhulayo zokunciphisa ukungcola.
Ngisho noma kucatshangelwa ikusasa lomkhiqizo elikhokhiswe kakhulu futhi eliyingxubevange, kuzodingeka kuthathwe izinyathelo ezinqala. Futhi i-F16X, iqinisekisa ngisho namahemuhemu e-V8 eyi-hybrid ukuyikhuthaza, ngokusobala izokhipha umoya ophezulu kune-Dino entsha. Imoto ezoba yincane futhi ibelula, futhi njengeyakuqala yango-1967, ifakwe i-V6 endaweni yangemuva emaphakathi.
Izimpendulo ezengeziwe ngasekuqaleni kuka-2018 ngesethulo sesu lesikhathi esizayo lomkhiqizo. Ingabe bangabheja ngokumelene nokugunyazwa kwe-FUV?
