Ukuhlasela kukaTesla engxenyeni kagesi we-premium akukwazanga ukuphendulwa isikhathi eside. Manje kwase kuyithuba le-Audi yokumemezela izinhlelo zayo zokuhlasela ugesi eminyakeni embalwa ezayo, iqinisekisa i-Audi A9 e-tron.
U-Rupert Stadler, oyi-CEO yakwa-Audi, usevele wathi “KULUNGILE” ekukhiqizweni kwe-saloon kagesi engu-100%: i-Audi A9 e-tron. Imodeli engakaze ibonwe, ngokusho kwesikhulu, izodayiswa ngo-2020. Uma ifika emakethe, i-Audi A9 e-tron izobhekana nomncintiswano ofakiwe we-Tesla Model S futhi ngokuqinisekile ukuncintisana nezinye iziphakamiso ezivela emncintiswaneni ojwayelekile. kumkhiqizo we-Ingolstadt : Mercedes-Benz, Volvo kanye neBMW.
Ngokusho kwe-Autocar, i-A9 e-tron izokwabelana ngesisekelo sayo sobuchwepheshe neSUV Q6 e-tron (ehlelelwe ukwethulwa ngo-2018). Okungukuthi amamotho amathathu kagesi (enye ikwi-asi yangaphambili enye amabili emasondweni angemuva) kanye nesiteji. Ngokuqondene nezinombolo, ithuthukisa amandla amakhulu okufanele adlule ku-500 hp (kwimodi yezemidlalo) kanye ne-torque engu-800 Nm. Ukuzimela okulindelekile kumayelana nama-500 km.
Ezithombeni: Umqondo we-Audi Prologue
“Ngo-2020 sizoba namamodeli amathathu kagesi angu-100%,” kusho uRupert Stadler, ebhalela i-Autocar. Umgomo ngokwalokhu okubophezelekile ukuthi "ngo-2025, amaphesenti angu-25 obubanzi bethu azobe esebenza ngogesi". I-Audi iphinde ithembise ulwazi lokushayela oluhlukanisiwe nomncintiswano, ngenxa yokulungiswa okuqondile kwesistimu ye-quattro ezosetshenziswa kumamodeli kagesi kanye nobuchwepheshe obusetshenziswa ezinjinini. “Abanye abamelene nabo bakhethe izinjini ezinamandla zokuvumelanisa, kodwa ngama-revs aphansi,” kuchaza inhloko yocwaningo nentuthuko yakwa-Audi, uStefan Knirsch. I-Audi izolandela indlela ehlukile, iphendukela ezinjinini ezingavumelaniyo “ezivame ukuzuza amazinga wamandla afanayo kodwa ngamarev aphezulu kakhulu. Siyaqiniseka ukuthi zinikeza amazinga aphezulu ukusebenza kahle kunama-synchronous motors”.
"Amandla afakiwe" impendulo kuTesla
I-Audi, i-Mercedes-Benz, i-Porsche, i-Lexus, i-Volvo, i-BMW - ukusho nje izithenjwa ze-premium. Zonke ziyimikhiqizo enamashumi eminyaka yomlando - kwezinye izimo ngisho neminyaka engaphezu kwekhulu yomlando - futhi bonke babecindezelwe ngentambo ngumuntu omusha, uTesla. Lo mkhiqizo waseNyakatho Melika "awukafiki, ubonwe futhi uwine" kuphela ngoba ayikabonakalisi ukusimama kwemodeli yebhizinisi layo. Noma kunjalo, ukungabaza eceleni, iqiniso liwukuthi "kusukela ekuqaleni" u-Tesla ukwazile ukuzibonakalisa phakathi kwabathengi njengereferensi kumamodeli kagesi. Kwaba ukuzamazama okukhulu ezisekelweni zemboni yezimoto!I-shakeup amabhrendi amakhulu, ayevame ukuchitha amakhulu ezigidi zama-euro ekuthuthukiseni izinjini ezivuthayo zangaphakathi eziyinkimbinkimbi, ziye zaphuza ukuphendula. Kungenzeka yini ukuthi bebelokhu bephika sonke lesi sikhathi nokuthi ikusasa eliseduze, phela, izimoto zikagesi? Impendulo ithi cha. Sikholelwa ukuthi ukuphila kwezinjini ezivuthayo zangaphakathi nokuthuthukiswa kwazo akukakapheli. U-Tesla wayazi nje ukuthi angasebenzisa kanjani ubuchwepheshe obulula bezimoto zikagesi, ngaphandle kwesistimu yebhethri (engaxazululwa ngokusebenzisa abahlinzeki bangaphandle) kulula, kufinyeleleke kalula futhi kungabizi kakhulu.
Kusazobonakala ukuthi uTesla uzoqhubeka yini nokubusa kwakhe phezu kwamazwe-kodwa-awazange abuyiselwe, lapho ama-giants embonini yezimoto eletha isisindo sabo esigcwele kule ngxenye. I-Tesla isalelwe okungenani iminyaka emibili ukuze izinze emakethe futhi ithole amandla, uma ingakwenzi, ibeka engcupheni yokubhubha ngaphambi kwamandla, isipiliyoni kanye nolwazi lwemikhiqizo ehola imakethe yezimoto emhlabeni wonke njengamanje.
