Smart ForTwo 2008 Review

Amma tun lokacin da aka bayyana sabon Smart Fortwo a wannan makon a Sydney, ya zo da alamar tambaya game da ainihin dacewarsa akan hanyoyin Australiya.

Kamfanin mai samfuri ɗaya a ƙarƙashin kamfanin iyaye Mercedes-Benz ya sayar da Fortwos 550 kawai a Ostiraliya a bara. Kuma wannan adadin, wanda kocin Smart Australia Wolfgang Schrempp ya yarda, ba ta da fa'ida da za ta ci gaba har tsawon shekaru uku zuwa hudu masu zuwa. Amma suna da tabbacin cewa ƙarni na biyu na sabuwar motar na iya taimakawa wajen haɓaka waɗannan lambobin.

Tun daga ƙarshen 1990s, Smart ya sayar da Fortwos 770,000 a duk duniya. Wannan motar birni ce mai dacewa da muhalli ga waɗanda suke so su fice tare da tunaninsu masu ban sha'awa, daidaikun mutane da kuma "masu hankali". Kuma sabon samfurin ya ɗan girma kuma ya fi wanda ya riga shi girma.

The Fortwo zai kasance samuwa tare da biyu injuna da biyu jiki styles. Dukansu biyun suna da ƙarfi ta hanyar ingin silinda mai girman 999cc mai ɗabi'a. duba wanda Mitsubishi ke ƙera, ɗayan yana fitar da 52kW ɗayan kuma yana samun ɗan taimako daga injin turbocharger kuma yana ba da 62kW. Abokan ciniki kuma za su iya zaɓar daga samfurin coupe ko mai iya canzawa tare da saman mai iya canzawa wanda ke ja da baya a kowane gudu da coupe tare da rufin gilashi mai zamewa. Sabuwar Fortwo ya zama ƙasa da abin wasa, kodayake har yanzu yana riƙe da ɗabi'a mai ban sha'awa da ban mamaki.

Yana da tsayin ƙafar ƙafa, ɗan girman girma kuma ya sami wasu canje-canjen salo. Kututturen ya ɗan fi girma kuma. Daga baya, Fortwo yanzu yana kama da mota ta gaske, tare da wurin zama mai faɗi da fitilun wutsiya huɗu maimakon shida na baya.

Makasudin motar a matsayin samfurin abokantaka na muhalli an cimma daidai - ita ce motar motar mai mai arziki a kasuwa, samun lita 4.7 a kowace kilomita 100 a cikin nau'in turbo da 4.9 lita a cikin turbocharged version.

Haka kuma iskar carbon dioxide ba ta da yawa. The Fortwo yana farawa a $19,990 don ƙirar 52kW coupe da $22,990 don mai iya canzawa. Sigar turbo tana ƙara $2000 ga kowane alamar farashi. Kuma ko da yake yana iya zama sabon abu, ana iya tuka ta kamar kowace motar fasinja. Akwai isasshen daki don fasinjoji biyu, kuma fasinja musamman yana samun ɗaki mai yawa.

Amma ba za ku iya taimakawa jin cewa ba shi da wannan alaƙa tsakanin direba da muhalli.

Kuna yawan zama sama da ƙasa a wurin zama maimakon akansa, kuma dashboard ɗin yana jin an ware fiye da gyare-gyare a kusa da ku. Amma kyakkyawa ne kuma nau'in salo na musamman a ciki da waje.

Ko da yake 52 kW ba adadi mai ban sha'awa ba ne, ƙananan injin ne kawai kuma yana da alama yana da isasshen iko don rawar birni. Motar haske tana zagayawa cikin birni tare da isassun gudu saboda godiyar saurin watsawa ta atomatik mai sauri biyar. Wannan yana nufin babu kama, amma har yanzu kuna sarrafa gears ta amfani da maɓalli ko paddles akan sitiyari.

Kuna iya zama malalaci idan ya zo ga saukarwa, kamar yadda akwatin gear ke yi da kanta. A cikin tsaunuka, yana ɗaukar lokaci don matsawa cikin kayan aiki, kuma wani lokacin dole ne ku huta don tsallake hawan. An inganta watsa shirye-shirye na kanikanci. Juyawa baya sa ku zama kamar novice direba - maimakon haka, sauyi ne mai santsi, santsi.

Amma idan canjawa ba kawai a gare ku ba, akwai kuma zaɓi na softtouch ta atomatik wanda ke ƙara $2000 zuwa farashin. Babban gudun shine 145 km/h, kuma duk da girmansa, kuna jin lafiya da sanin ya sami ƙimar NCAP mai taurari huɗu na Yuro kuma an sanye shi da jakunkunan iska guda huɗu a matsayin ma'auni.

Yana da kyau a cikin gari da wuraren shakatawa cikin sauƙi, amma hawan jin daɗi ba shine mafi kyau ba saboda dakatarwar ba ta ɗaukar komai.

The Fortwo yana samun ƙima don shigar da kulawar kwanciyar hankali azaman madaidaicin siffa, rarity a cikin wannan ɓangaren. Tuƙin wutar lantarki bai yi lissafin ba, amma Smart ya ce ra'ayoyin abokin ciniki yana nuna tuƙi ya isa haske. Duk da yake wannan gaskiya ne a mafi girman gudu, a zahiri za ku lura da rashinsa a wuraren ajiye motoci ko sasanninta.

Mun kuma sami damar yin saurin jujjuya ƙirar turbocharged 62kW. Wannan samfurin zai zama mafi kyawun su biyun, yana ba da ƙarin aiki da ƙarin kuzari. A kawai $90 fiye da samfurin da ya gabata, da gaske Fortwo yana ba da abin hawa na musamman kuma na musamman ƙarƙashin $20,000.

Amma kaɗan, zaku iya samun Mazda2 ko Volkswagen Polo, waɗanda ke ba da ƙarin fa'idar ƙarin kujeru, injin da ya fi ƙarfin, da ɗan ƙaramin tattalin arzikin mai. Don haka don yin zaɓi mai wayo, dole ne ku zama babban fan.

Shin Smart yana dacewa da Ostiraliya?
