Ngemva kwezinyanga ezimbalwa siyazi “imoto yokuphepha” entsha ye-Formula E, i-MINI Electric Pacesetter, kwaba yithuba le-MotoE (uzakwabo we-Formula E emkhakheni wezithuthuthu) ukuthola “imoto yokuphepha” entsha: i- BMW i4 M50.
Ngokusekelwe ku-i4 M50 ezongena emakethe ngoNovemba, “imoto yokuphepha” ethatha indawo ye-i8 inamamotho kagesi amabili (eyodwa ekseni ngayinye) kanye netorque engu-544 hp ne-795 Nm eyivumela ukuthi ifinyelele ku-100. km/h ku-3.9s.
Njengoba kulindelekile, uphiko lwe-M alusebenzisi ubuchwepheshe balo kuphela ku-chassis yethramu entsha yaseJalimane, kodwa futhi ohlelweni lokubhuleka kanye ne-aerodynamics. Emkhakheni wobuhle, i-BMW i4 M50 ithole umhlobiso othize lapho upende olumpunga lugqama khona, luqhathaniswa nemininingwane eluhlaza.
Lo mbala awugcini nje ngokwenza ukuba khona kwawo kuzwakale emininingwaneni ecacile ehlobisa umsebenzi womzimba, wawusetshenziswa nasezinso ezinkulu eziphindwe kabili, okuyisiza ukuba igqame (ngisho) nangaphezulu. Ukuqedela ukubukeka kukhona izibani zesignali eziyisibopho.
izinyathelo zokuqala ezibheke esikhathini esizayo
Ihlelelwe ukuqala kwayo ngo-Agasti 15th emjahweni we-MotoE obanjelwe e-Red Bull Ring, e-Spielberg, e-Austria, i-BMW i4 M50, i-Markus Flasch, umqondisi omkhulu we-BMW M, "imoto yokuphepha" efaneleka kakhulu ye-100% isigaba sesithuthuthu sikagesi esakhiwe ngo-2019.
