Ithuthukiswe ngesisekelo se-chassis enama-spars nama-crossmembers, i Suzuki Jimmy ibe yimpumelelo ngabalandeli be-off-road (nangale) futhi iphinde yabuza umbuzo: iphi impendulo evela ku-Jeep, uhlobo olufana ne-off-road? Kubukeka sengathi iJeep yomntwana isendleleni.
IRenegade njengamanje iyiJeep encane kunazo zonke ethengiswayo, kuphela nje inkulu kakhulu (4.24 m ubude) uma iqhathaniswa neJimny encane (3.48 m). Ngaphezu kwalokho, ineminyango emihlanu, futhi ukwakhiwa kwayo kwe-monoblock akukwazanga ukuhluka kakhulu kuma-spars kanye nama-transoms wesiphakamiso saseJapane.
Imodeli entsha engaphansi kwe-Renegade ayiwona amahemuhemu manje, kodwa ngemuva kwezimemezelo ezenziwe nguMqondisi Wezokuthengisa we-brand eYurophu, uMarco Pigozzi, ku-Auto Express, sangena emkhakheni weziqinisekiso ngokucacile: "imoto izosetshenziswa njengemoto yangempela. I-Jeep kodwa, ngasikhathi sinye, izosebenza ukusetshenziswa nsuku zonke”.
Yini ongayilindela?
Nakuba sine-Suzuki Jimny njengereferensi, iJeep yomntwana isazoba nkulu kakhulu, nobude bungafinyelela ku-4.0 m ubude, ngokusho kukaPigozzi.
Singakhohlwa ukuthi uJimny omncane uhlangabezana nemibandela eqinile yezimoto zaseJapan okuthiwa i-kei, ezikhawulela ubukhulu (ubude nobubanzi) ezingaba nazo - inguqulo yamazwe ngamazwe, lena esinayo lapha, idlula le mikhawulo, ngenxa yamabhampa bulkier kanye Ububanzi bengoma obugqame kakhudlwana.
Ubude obungu-4.0 m obabonwa kusengaphambili ngesiphakamiso seJeep bunesizathu sokuthi: I-India. Izimoto ezifika ku-4.0 m ubude ziyahlomula ezintela eziphansi, okwenza inani lazo lokuthenga lithandeke kakhulu, kanti i-baby-Jeep iyimodeli ebalulekile ukuze umkhiqizo waseMelika uphumelele kule makethe.
Bhalisela iphephandaba lethu
Ngokuqondene nosuku okungenzeka lokwethulwa ngalo, i-Auto Express ikhomba ku-2022, ngokuhambisana nezinhlelo ezimenyezelwe ngo-2018 yiJeep uqobo, kodwa engazange iqhubeke nosuku oluthile lwemodeli entsha.
Kodwa-ke, kucatshangelwa ukuthi ngaleso sikhathi wonke amamodeli omkhiqizo waseNyakatho Melika azoba nezinguqulo ezifakwe ugesi, lokhu kusho ukuthi i-jeep yomntwana nayo izofakwa ugesi. Maqondana nalokhu okungenzeka, u-Pigozzi wanquma ukuthi "Sinamandla okufaka ugesi odingekayo", engacacisi ukuthi lokhu kuzoba yi-hybrid, i-plug-in hybrid noma imodeli kagesi engu-100%.
Izoba yini inkundla?
Umbuzo omkhulu ophakamayo lapho ukhuluma nge-baby-Jeep uhlobene nesiteji azosisebenzisa, futhi kulo mkhakha akukho ukuntuleka kwemibono.
Okokuqala ukuthi i-baby-Jeep izosebenzisa inguqulo "yeluliwe" yesikhulumi se-Fiat Panda, eyaziwa ngokuthi i-Mini. Phela, lena iyakwazi ukuthola wonke amasondo (okubalulekile ekugcineni amandla emodeli angaphandle komgwaqo) - ingabe sizobona enye inguquko yalesi sisekelo ngeJeep?
Okunye ukuthi izosuselwa kunguqulo efushanisiwe yesikhulumi se-Renegade, i-Small Wide 4×4. Njengoba wazi, ingafakwa ugesi (iRenegade PHEV iyakufakazela) futhi iphinde isekele amasistimu okushayela amasondo wonke.
Kodwa kunezinketho ezengeziwe. Ngokuhlanganisa kwe-PSA/FCA kuqinisekisiwe , i-baby-Jeep ingasebenzisa ngisho nenkundla ye-CMP. Lokhu kungafakwa ugesi (kuyisisekelo samamodeli kagesi ambalwa angu-100%), futhi ukuba nokushayela ngamasondo onke kungaba kwanele ukufaka… i-motor kagesi ku-asili yangemuva.
Okokugcina, umbono omncane (kodwa ongalahleki) ukuthi le modeli izothola inkundla entsha okungenzeka ukuthi i-Jeep iyathuthuka.
Noma kunjalo, into eyodwa (cishe) iqinisekile: naphezu kokuthi ihlangene, i-jeep yengane yesikhathi esizayo ngeke ibe imbangi eqondile ye-Suzuki Jimny.
