Inhloso ye I-Mercedes-Benz GLS ngaphakathi kwebanga lomkhiqizo we-Stuttgart kulula ukuliqonda. Ngokuyisisekelo, lokhu kufanele kwenziwe phakathi kwama-SUV lokho i-S-Class ekwenzile kuzo zonke izizukulwane zayo ezimbalwa esigabeni sayo: yiba yisethenjwa.
Njengabaphikisi embangweni walesi "sihloko", i-GLS ithola amagama afana ne-Audi Q7, i-BMW X7 noma i-Range Rover "yaphakade", evika "ama-heavyweight" afana ne-Bentley Bentayga noma i-Rolls-Royce Cullinan "edlalayo" umqhudelwano weMercedes-Maybach GLS 600 esibuye sawuhlola.
Kodwa ingabe imodeli yaseJalimane inazo izimpikiswano zokuthethelela izifiso eziphakeme? Noma ingabe usenazo ezinye izinto “okufanele uzifunde” nge-S-Class uma kuziwa ekusetheni amazinga ekhwalithi nokusungula izinto? Ukuze sithole, sikuhlole enguqulweni yayo okuwukuphela kwayo ngenjini yeDizili etholakala e-Portugal: i-400 d.
Ukubeka, njengoba bekulindelekile
Uma kukhona okulindele ngeSUV ewubukhazikhazi, wukuthi uma idlula iphendule amakhanda (amaningi). Khona-ke, ngemva kwezinsuku ezimbalwa esondweni le-GLS 400 d ngingaqinisekisa ngezinga eliphakeme lokuqiniseka ukuthi imodeli yaseJalimane iphumelele kakhulu kule "mission".
Ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni kulokhu kuhlolwa kuzoncishiswa yi-BP
Thola ukuthi ungakuqeda kanjani ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni kudizili, uphethiloli noma imoto ye-LPG.
Kuliqiniso ukuthi ukugqugquzelwa kwe-GLB kwenkulu kunazo zonke ze-Mercedes-Benz SUVs kugcine kwenze iGLS ibukeke kancane. Kodwa-ke, ubukhulu bayo obukhulu (amamitha angu-5.20 ubude, 1.95 m ububanzi no-1.82 m ukuphakama) buqeda ngokushesha noma yikuphi ukudideka okungadalwa engqondweni yomuntu obukele kancane.
Uma ngikhuluma ngobukhulu bayo, kufanele ngikuveze ukuthi iSUV yaseJalimane kulula ngendlela emangalisayo ukuyishayela, ngisho nasezikhaleni ezimpintshana. Ngamakhamera amaningi nezinzwa ezisivumela ukuthi sibuke okungu-360º, iMercedes-Benz GLS ibonakale ilula ukuyikhipha egcekeni lendlu yami kunamamodeli amancane kakhulu.
Ubufakazi bekhwalithi… yonke into
Uma ikhono layo lokubamba ukunakwa kweMercedes-Benz GLS "ivunyelwe", okufanayo kungashiwo mayelana nekhwalithi. Njengoba ubungalindela, asizange sithole izinto ezisetshenziswayo ezisezingeni eliphansi egibeleni i-SUV yaseJalimane futhi amandla makhulu kangangokuthi sigcina sesihamba emigwaqweni yamatshe ngaphandle kokuqaphela ukuthi injalo.Thola imoto yakho elandelayo:
Ngekhabethe lapho izikrini ezimbili ezingu-12.3” (esinye sephaneli yezinsimbi kanye nesinye esohlelo lwe-infotainment) “zingabadlali abakhulu”, angikwazi ukuzibamba kodwa ngincoma iqiniso lokuthi uhlobo lwaseJalimane alukhohliwe ukushiya imiyalo ethile ethintekayo. nama-hotkey, ikakhulukazi ohlelo lwe-HVAC.
Ingaphakathi le-GLS libonisa izinto ezimbili: ubukhulu bayo kanye nolwazi uhlobo lwaseJalimane olunalo ekukhiqizeni amakhabethe anamandla amangalisayo.
Kodwa-ke, ngo-3.14 m we-wheelbase, indawo yokuhlala efanele ukunakwa okwengeziwe. Isikhala ohlwini lwesibili lwezihlalo senza ukuthi kwesinye isikhathi sigcine sesizisola ngokungabi…nomshayeli. Ngokujulile. Futhi ngisho nemigqa emithathu ekhona, umthamo wemithwalo ufinyelela ku-355 amalitha. Uma sigoqa izihlalo ezimbili zokugcina, manje sesinamalitha angu-890.
Izihlalo ezingaphambili zisebenza ngogesi, zipholile, ziyafudumala futhi zinikeza… amamasaji.
I-SUV yazo zonke izikhathi
Esondweni le-Mercedes-Benz GLS 400, umuzwa wokuthi “uyasihlasela” ungomunye wokungabi sengozini. I-SUV yaseJalimane inkulu kakhulu, inethezekile, futhi yenza umsebenzi omuhle “wokusihlukanisa” nomhlaba wangaphandle kangangokuthi, noma ifika ezindaweni ezizungezile noma lapho sishayisa “kuthayela womzila ophakathi”, iqiniso liwukuthi ezikhathini eziningi thina sinomuzwa wokuthi sinikezwa "indima yokuqala".
Ngokusobala, ubukhulu ezenza iMercedes-Benz GLS ibe “yi-road colossus” iyenza ingabi lula uma ifika emajikeni. Kodwa ungacabangi ukuthi imodeli yaseJalimane yazi kuphela "ukuhamba ngokuqondile". Lona "unesikhali esiyimfihlo": ukumiswa kwe-Airmatic, okungakuvumeli nje kuphela ukuthi ulungise ubulukhuni bokumanzisa kodwa futhi "udlale" ngokuphakama phansi.
Isistimu yokubhucunga ezihlalweni ezingaphambili ingezinye ezihamba phambili engake ngathola ithuba lokuhlola futhi isiza ukwenza uhambo olude lube lufushane.
Kumodi "Yezemidlalo", yenza konke okusemandleni "ukunamathisela" i-Mercedes-Benz GLS emgwaqeni futhi iqine ngangokunokwenzeka, konke ukumelana nemithetho… yefiziksi. Iqiniso liwukuthi ikwazi ngisho ukukwenza ngendlela egculisayo, isisiza ukuba sinikeze ijubane eligobile eliphakeme kakhulu kunalokho obungakulindela ku-colossus enamathani angu-2.5.
Kuyiqiniso ukuthi ayigxili njenge-BMW X7, nokho uma siphuma kumajika futhi singena ku-straights izinga lokunethezeka nokuzihlukanisa ebhodini liba nomuzwa wokuthi sivakashela "okungapheli nangaphezulu". Uma sikhuluma ngalokho “ngaphesheya”, uma ukufika lapho kubandakanya ukuphuma emgwaqweni, masikwazi ukuthi “ukumiswa komlingo” nakho kunamaqhinga alezi zimo.
Ngokuthintwa kwenkinobho iMercedes-Benz GLS iyaphakama futhi iba (ngisho) ikhulume kakhulu. Futhi ngenxa yemodi ye-“Offroad”, i-SUV yaseJalimane iphila ngokuvumelana nemiqulu “yomfowabo omdala”, i-G-Class. Kuyiqiniso ukuthi amasondo angu-23” kanye ne-Pirelli P-Zero kusekude ukuba abe yinketho ekahle izindlela zabantu ababi, kodwa isistimu ye-4MATIC namakhamera amaningi akwenza kube lula ukuwela izindlela ezibonakala… kungenakwenzeka.
Ekhuluma ngezinto ezingenakwenzeka, uma ucabanga ukuthi ukuvumelanisa isifiso esilinganisiwe ne-SUV engu-2.5-tonne kanye ne-330 hp kwakungenakwenzeka, cabanga futhi. Kuyacaca ukuthi uma sisebenzisa wonke amandla namandla (700 Nm we-torque) ukusetshenziswa kuyenyuka, kufinyelela kumanani afana no-17 l/100 km. Nokho, ekushayeleni ukhululeke kakhudlwana iGLS 400 d yayiphakathi kuka-8 kuya ku-8.5 l/100 km.
Ngalokho, “ucela” kuphela ukuthi bamholele ekwenzeni lokho akuthokozela kakhulu: “ukushwabadela” amakhilomitha ngesivinini esizinzile. Phela, kulo mongo lapho izimfanelo SUV German zikhanya kakhulu, ukugcizelela ngokukhethekile ukunethezeka nokuzinza.
Khuphukela…
Mayelana nenjini, i-six-cylinder in-line Diesel enamandla angu-3.0 litre, 330 hp kanye no-700 Nm, okuhle kakhulu ukuthi isinikeze izizathu zokuthi kungani ngelinye ilanga sizolahlekelwa yizinjini ezaqalwa nguMnuz Rudolf Diesel.
Eqinisweni, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi zinhle kangakanani izinjini zikaphethiloli nezamandla kagesi, le Dizili ilingana neGLS njengegilavu, esivumela ukuthi siphrinte isigqi esiphezulu ngaphandle kokuthwala ithangi ngemuva kwethu. Eqinisweni, ukusebenza kahle kwayo okuhlobene nethangi lamalitha angu-90 kusivumela ukuba sijabulele ukuzimela okungadlula i-1000 km!
Ingabe imoto ekulungele?
Izinga elijwayelekile lisezingeni leMercedes-Benz ehamba phambili (ngakho-ke, ezingeni eliphezulu kakhulu embonini), indawo yokuhlala iwuphawu lokuma, ukunikezwa kwezobuchwepheshe kuyamangalisa futhi injini ikuvumela ukuthi uhambe amabanga amade ngaphandle kokuba ukwenza ukuma njalo ukuze ugcwalise futhi ngenkathi ikuvumela ukuthi uphrinte isigqi esihle.
Ngenani eliyisisekelo elingama-€125,000, iMercedes-Benz GLS 400 d ngokusobala ayiyona imodeli eyenzelwe uquqaba. Kodwa kulabo abakwazi ukuthenga imodeli efana ne-German SUV, iqiniso liwukuthi, ayibi ngcono kakhulu kunalena.
