Amamodeli we Lotus

Izimoto zeLotus ingenye yezinhlobo zezimoto zezemidlalo ezidume kakhulu e-UK. Yasungulwa nguColin Bruce Chapman ngo-1952, inendlunkulu yayo edolobheni laseHethel (Norfolk). Namuhla ingeye-Malaysian conglomerate DRB - Hicom (umnikazi weProton), nakuba kulindeleke ukuthi idlulele ezandleni ze-Chinese conglomerate Geely phakathi no-2017.

Umsebenzi we-lotus udlula ukukhiqizwa kwezimoto zezemidlalo ze-Spartan cut kodwa isebenza kakhulu ezingeni eliguqukayo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uphinde asebenze njengomeluleki wobunjiniyela, njengoba enolwazi oluningi mayelana nezinto eziyinhlanganisela nokuklama kokumiswa, phakathi kwezinye izici.

Imodeli evula ububanzi beLotus yi-Elise. Inikeza amandla ayo okushayela umshayeli angafanelekile ukusetshenziswa kwansuku zonke. Iwumshini oklanyelwe ukushayela futhi ujabulele ukushayela noma kunjalo faka ibhulokhi likaphethiloli enamandla angu-136 hp. Iqhinga lokuletha ukusebenza okuguquguqukayo nokuzizwa ilele esisindweni sayo esiphansi. Amathuba ayo angaphakathi namathuluzi akusilinganiso semakethe, abonakala e-spartan kakhulu kunokunethezeka.

I-Lotus Exige ingukuhluka kwe-hardtop coupé ye-Elise. Inesikhala sabagibeli ababili futhi izinzwa zezemidlalo zigcizelelwa maqondana ne-Elise. Ukuze uyifinyelele, isekelwe esisindweni esilula kakhulu kanye nenjini ekhiqiza i-351 hp. Ngayo, ifinyelela kumakhilomitha angama-274 ngehora futhi isuka ku-0 iye ku-100 km ngehora ngemizuzwana engu-3,9. Lo mdlalo wezemidlalo udluliselwa ku-a ingaphakathi lekhwalithi kodwa i-spartan ngokwezinto zokunethezeka, hhayi ubuchwepheshe noma ukuphepha.

Ukuvala ububanzi bakho phezulu Lotus ine Evora. Lena imodeli enamandla kakhulu futhi eqinile inkampani yesiNgisi enayo kukhathalogi yayo yamanje. Lokhu ugudluzwe yibhulokhi kaphethiloli enamalitha angu-3.5 ukususwa kanye nokucushwa ku-V6. Amandla ewakhiphayo ngu-405 hp noma 416 hp, okuyivumela ukuthi ifinyelele isivinini esiphezulu samakhilomitha angu-300 ngehora. Phakathi kwezimbangi zakhe kukhona I-Porsche 718 Cayman noma i-Audi TT Coupe.

Njengemodeli yenkanyezi nokukhiqizwa okulinganiselwe (amayunithi angama-311 kuphela) I-Lotus ine-3-Eleven. Le modeli ishesha kakhulu futhi ibiza kakhulu eyake yakhiqizwa inkampani yakwaHethel. Isebenzisa injini efanayo ne-Evora kodwa amandla ayo anyuswe afinyelela ku-450 hp. Kuyimodeli eqinile kakhulu futhi ukugcizelela lesi sici i-3-Eleven enguqulweni "Yomjaho" ifaka ikhithi ye-aerodynamic enolaka kanye nesihlalo samahhanisi esingamaphuzu angu-6.
indaba yelotus
Ngo-1952 i-brilliant UColin Chapman basungula izimoto zeLotus, okuyinkampani eyaziwa ngokwenza izimoto zezemidlalo ezingamandla amancane, ngoba bebengazidingi ngoba zikhanya impela. Amanye amamodeli adume kakhulu eLotus kube yi Isikhombisa (okwamanje isathengiswa ngaphansi kohlobo lwe-Caterham) i-Esprit noma i-Elise. I-Lotus iphinde yaba neminyaka yegolide ekilasini likaNdunankulu wemoto, iFormula 1.
