The Ford Sierra RS Cosworth is best described as... Porsche-great. This week we're doing a deep dive into Ford's funky sedan of the 1980s: the Sierra, together with its American identical cousin, the Merkur XR4Ti. In the early 1980s, Ford of Europe (and chairman Bob Lutz) was on a mission to get a piece of the export pie that was dominated by Mercedes, BMW, and Audi. The car they conjured up to do so, the Sierra, was a massive success in Europe. When it eventually made it to the U.S., badged as a Merkur XR4Ti, Lutz's plan to sell the cars to yuppies via independent niche dealers was foiled, and the car was placed on Lincoln-Mercury dealer lots alongside big American barges and clueless salesmen, only to die a slow death. Meanwhile, on the other side of the pond, the extra-spicy Ford Sierra RS Cosworth was born. In fact, the car was so sought-after (i.e. stolen) by British hooligans that insurance companies refused to cover them. And it was so fast it was repeatedly banned from racing, eventually effectively spelling the end for Group A racing. Ford of Europe (headed up by Bob Lutz) was seeing the likes of BMW and Audi making a killing with their U.S. exports and Ford wanted in. The plan was to try something different, and rather than a Ford-branded import program where Sierras would be sold alongside LTDs, Cougars and other giant American sedans, Bob wanted to do a Ford of Europe export scheme where their new car could be sold alongside other European curios like Saabs and Volvos at independent dealers under a new brand name. They settled on Merkur (the German word for mercury – pronounced “maercoor”), but they also needed a new model name as Sierra was trademarked by Oldsmobile (think: Cutlass Ciera.) Ford used the “XR” prefix to denote a variety of upgraded model trims followed by a number which corresponded to the vehicle size – which is where XR4 comes from. Add abbreviations for “turbo” and “injection” and you're off to the races! Both the Merkur and Sierra RS Cosworth were powered by versions of Ford's Pinto 4-cylinder motor. The Merkur engine could also be found in the USDM Mercury Cougar XR7, Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, and Mustang SVO. Across the pond however, the Sierra engine went to Cosworth to get an aluminum head with an extra cam. The results were clear: the XR4Ti's motor needed 13 lbs of boost to pump out 175 hp, while the Cosworth version only needed 8 psi to make 200 hp. But the Cosworth got a whole host of additional modifications beyond the engine, and the resulting package was so exceptional it wound up getting banned from racing repeatedly, until eventually the regs shut down the entire series. The chassis is so exceptional that Jason proclaims it the best sedan chassis he's ever experienced – on the same level as a Porsche Cayman GT4. Transcendent. A 9.9/10. Where "Beatrice," his extensively modified E30, only managed a mid-8 (for the same reasons that caused Sreten at M539 Restoration to drive his into a tree). The likes of the Lotus Carlton didn't even garner a 5 from either Carmudgeon. Honorable mentions go to the Maserati Quattroporte, C126 560SEC, and a handful of M products. We'll even dive into every generation of M5 – E28 through G90. Lastly, we'll learn about 80s and 90s Lexus dealership brutalism, that “light” means window, our friend Mike's transient collection of eclectic cars has graced the show at least 3 times (thanks, Mike!), superbly compliant AWD cars like the Delta Integrale and Subaru WRX are good but rarely fun, and Bob Lutz had to fight tooth and nail to get a Chevrolet dealership in NorCal to sell him a Corvair Monza.

The Genesis G90 helped spin off the fledgling Genesis brand from its Hyundai starting place. Pivoting away from the Genesis Coupe of yore, the Genesis G90 helped push the Genesis brand into a hotly contested, and loyal, luxury sedan space. A space dominated by the likes of Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi and more. After helping establish the brand, Genesis launched the second generation of its G90 in 2021. The transition to its second generation added needed tech upgrades and helped the brand's flagship sedan better fall in line with the current design language. While the V8 didn't make the transition to the second generation, the G90 offers a pair of turbocharged V6 mills, with the e-supercharged variant boasting 409 hp.  On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2024 Genesis G90 and puts it through its paces. Wren takes you on a guided tour of the '24 G90 and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Wren takes you along for a live drive review of the large Genesis sedan. Adding to these segments, Wren chats with Autoweek's Patrick Carone about Genesis, the G90, and the luxury sedan space. Closing the show, the pair break down what makes the '24 Genesis G90 special.

Genesis rolled out its G70 sedan onto the road all the way back in 2017, for the 2018 model year. While the G90 helped kick the Genesis brand off, the G70's launch was a big part of the brand's expansion down market. This smaller sedan fights with the likes of luxury heavyweights like the BMW 3-Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and more. This Genesis also shared a platform with Kia's Stinger, which went out of production after 2023. Genesis gave the G70 a substantial styling update in 2022 to bring it in line with the rest of the Genesis portfolio, but also added a more powerful 2.5-liter turbocharged I4 as the base powertrain, which replaces the outgoing 2.0-liter mill.  On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2024 Genesis G70 and puts it through its paces. Wren guides you around the G70 highlights some of his favorite features, and explains what this Genesis sedan feels like in the real world. Later in the show, Wren takes you along for a live drive review. Joining these segments, Autoweek's Patrick Carone joins the show to discuss his experiences with the G70, the competitive set, and more. Closing the show, the pair break down what makes the G70 special.

The Genesis brand spun off from the Genesis models that were originally part of Hyundai's lineup. Kicking the brand off, the company launched the G90 -- a full-size luxury sedan that was aimed at undercutting the competition while still giving customers the feeling of opulence. Genesis first showed this flagship sedan in 2017 -- a time before the sedan lost its foothold. Despite crossovers and SUVs taking more and more market share from the sedan, Genesis saw enough value in its G90 to give it a second generation, and stick with a sedan. The second-generation G90 does ditch the 5.0-liter V8, with only a turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 underhood. The folks at Genesis tossed on an electronic supercharger for its top model, which sends 409 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission. On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2023 Genesis G90 and puts it through its paces. Wren guides you through the G90's new features and highlights his favorite additions to the G90. Wren also takes you along for a live drive review of the Genesis G90 and discusses how it feels dynamically. Adding to the show, Wren chats with Patrick Carone about the Genesis G90 over the years, the best features of the new model and where it stands in the pantheon of luxury cars. Closing the show, the two breakdown what makes this new G90 special.

The Genesis G80 sits in the middle of the Genesis sedan lineup: below its top-rung G90 and above the sporty G70. Even though sedans aren't as popular as the increasingly-in-demand crossover and SUV segments, Genesis gave its G80 a second generation in 2020. This second-gen G80 updates the car's styling to the current Genesis design language and streamlined the engine options. The G80, in the US, sports either a 2.5-liter turbocharged I4 or a 3.5-liter turbocharged V6. Both engines feed a standard eight-speed automatic. Volkswagen might be thinning its sedan herd, but it's not bowing out completely. Volkswagen's Arteon is the company's flagship sedan, and lives up to the task. Blending the current VW design language with a sleek sedan body, the Arteon looks like the rest of the VW lineup while still etching out its own distinct style. Powering the Arteon is exclusively a 300 hp, 2.0-liter turbocharged I4, which feeds a seven-speed automatic transmission. The Arteon might not have the same luxury cache as, say, an Audi, but the sleek Arteon is far from basic. On this bonus episode of Quick Spin, Natalie Neff talks with Wesley Wren about her time with these two stylish sedans. The two discuss the features of each car and chat about each car's space in the world. Expanding on these cars, the two dissect the shrinking sedan segment and talk about dire future for sedans.

Homesteading Homesteading has been growing in popularity in the US over the last several years. But what is homesteading? One definition says it is “a lifestyle of agrarian self-sufficiency as practiced by a modern homesteader or urban homesteader.” We invited Jason from Cog Hill to talk about his homestead and a little bit about the different types there are. Garden Update Cog Hill: Jason has never been able to grow sweet onions and bell peppers; while it's always been a struggle for him in the past, this year he has great success. Normally most people will cut up their potatoes before planting them, not Jason, he planted the whole potato (Red Norland), and even with all of the rain this season and planting later than he normally does, he had a big potato harvest. Greg: Along with Jason, Greg planted his potatoes later this year due to all the rain but had the best potato harvest he has ever had and he is still not sure how or why. We have our G90 sweet corn that will be ready to harvest in the next couple of weeks, we are excited about that. Our Purple Boy and Lemon Boy tomatoes are both new varieties to us but we love the taste of these. Both of these varieties would make a great Market Tomato with great flavor. What is Homesteading? While everyone has their own opinions or ideas on homesteading, more than likely you will agree with Jason. “Farming is for profit, while Homesteading is for yourself, family and friends. You have to depend on yourself for everything like food, meat, and being sustainable.” Although some homesteads can gain profit from selling their harvest or meat, most just want to be able to grow their own food. Jason and his family raised meat chickens for 5 years, along with quail, rabbits, and ducks. Bring completely sustainable can be very hard to do and accomplish. You have to make things work for you. Everyone has different land and soil which plays a lot into starting a homestead. “Adaption is key” in homesteading. Many years ago, most people would think of homesteading as having to live off your land because you were considered less fortunate or poor but in reality, it was because most people enjoyed doing it. If you get a chance to watch Cog Hill's YouTube channel, you truly get a sense that Jason and his family are enjoying life on the homestead. “If we didn't love it, we wouldn't do it” Jason states. Advice: Starting a homestead can be very stressful but the number one piece of advice Jason shares to Greg is that you should go slow! Starting out it can become very overwhelming. He also recommends that you shouldn't get caught up in “fads”, if you see one homesteader out there and they are very popular, don't think that that is the way it should be done. You have to be yourself because every situation is different and there may be so many others out there just like you. You have to figure out what works best for you. There are many things you can't depend on others to tell you when starting a homestead, growing your own food is very subjective. Your soil issues may not be someone else's soil issues which would make your watering routines different and then in turn would make your fertilization regimen different. Principles to Follow: Do your research!! Planting onions for warmer zones is completely different for the cooler climates. The time of year, what type of onion to plant and when to fertilize all play a HUGE factor in being successful. Be Flexible! If something doesn't work, change it! If you fail at something, try again! Just don't give up! Crops for Beginners: Summer Gardens Summer squash would most likely be the easiest to start, you can direct seed them and not have to start them in seed trays. Most squash varieties are pretty disease resistant, the summer squash varieties have quick maturity dates and you can continue to plant them throughout the summer months. While tomatoes are the most popular crop to grow,

Things to Consider When Growing Corn Before deciding whether to plant corn in the garden, there are a few important isolation requirements you need to follow in order to avoid cross-pollination of sweet corn. If you do not want cross-pollination of sweet corn you should either plant a synergistic variety or stagger your plantings 2 to 3 weeks in your garden. You should also consider whether you have time to process and harvest the corn once it's ready. If you don't have time to process and put away some of the standard varieties all in one day, you should probably consider growing some of the sweeter varieties that leave you a 10 to 15-day window to put up on the homestead. Another important factor to consider is whether this is your first time growing corn. If it is your first time growing corn, we recommend growing a standard variety such as G90, Jubilee, or Silver Queen. We recommend a standard variety due to the longer growing period which allows you more time to apply plenty of fertilizer and water. Growing Corn in the Vegetable Garden The key factor when growing corn is to plant corn in a square plot with at least three rows side-by-side. If you are growing in a raised bed you can still plant corn just try and squeeze in three rows if you can. The major reason why we plant corn in square plots is that corn is wind-pollinated therefore in order to get full ears of kernel those tassels need to side-by-side. The ideal pH for growing corn is between 5.8 - 6.5, however, if you get above 7 you may run into some trouble in the garden. For older corn varieties, you can get them germinating at 55 degrees. However, for the sweeter varieties, the soil temperature should be around 60 degrees. As far as, row spacing we recommend spacing them between 30 to 36 inches. While seed spacing is a little different based on whether you are planting sweet or field corn. We suggest planting sweet corn seeds around 6 to 8 inches apart on drip tape in the vegetable garden. While field corn seeds should be planted anywhere between 8 to 12 inches apart. Since corn is a heavy feeder, drip irrigation is more effective and way easier to supply the plants with the needed amount of water directly at the plant roots. Fertilizing Schedule for Corn When fertilizing corn, Nitrogen is the key component to accomplishing great success when growing corn in the vegetable garden. The standard corn recommendation is five pounds of Nitrogen per 1,000 square feet or 300-row feet. Once corn plants reach 6 to 8 inches tall, we suggest using our Fertilizer Injector to apply 2 lbs of 20-20-20 and 1 cup of Micro-Boost per 1,000 square feet. Then, once they reach 12 to 18" tall at our first hilling we apply 10 lbs of Chilean Nitrate. Next, we will side dress again with Chilean Nitrate once the corn reaches around "hiney high" which will also be our last cultivation. When the corn reaches around "titty high" we will inject 4 lbs of 20-20-20 and 1 cup of Micro-Boost per 1,000 square feet. The last time we fertilize is when plants start tasseling and we give them another 4 lbs of 20-20-20 and 1 cup of Micro-Boost to top them off in the garden. So in total if you have a 1,000 square plot of corn with no nutrients in your soil already you will need a bag of 20-20-20, one quart of Micro-Boost, and 2 bags of Chilean Nitrate. The most common pest problem when growing corn is earworms. The best pest control product to use when dealing with earworms is to use Spinosad and apply it on the silks. Show and Tell Segment On the show and tell segment this week, Greg and Travis talk a little bit about the weather conditions that have caused several issues for gardeners this year so far. The guys also show off a new product which is our Hoss Germination Mats that are offered in 3 different sizes. Travis goes over some new pumpkin and sunflower varieties that are now available on the website. The two new heirloom pumpkin varieties are both giant or larger type pum...

※ 本文章发布于订阅号：百车全说，订阅号阅读更加方便，欢迎关注今天咱们聊现代帕里斯帝，注意哦，是“现代”而不是“北京现代”，因为这是款进口车。我们知道，之前进口现代是独立的经销商网络，但是后来因为某些不可抗的因素，韩国很多企业都陆续撤离了，进口起亚和进口现代的网络说关闭就关闭，当年经销商退网的事情我还在节目里提过。帕里斯帝，这车名起的挺洋气，但是很拗口，我相信买这车的人年纪应该都不会小，这年头新车的名字越来越接地气，都用猫啊、狗啊、坦克啊、炮啊……多好记，这个帕里斯帝，不是真爱可能真不一定能一下就记住。这车的车长4980mm，轴距2900mm，最夸张的是还配了一台3.5L-V6的发动机，稍有常识的人都知道，进口车根据排量来收税，这台车进到国内含价格应该毫无竞争力才对。但是，帕里斯帝一共三个配置，定价竟然是29.88万入门两驱、31.08万中配四驱和32.98万高配四驱，也就是说一台汉兰达的预算，妥妥的可以拿下这辆帕里斯帝。我觉得，定这个价格是要有勇气的。理论上，这种车型其实做做样子，拉高一下品牌调性就可以了，不知道哪位领导拍板，决定还是要试一试这款车定个低价，看看中国消费者什么反应，所谓勇气，就是要在别人看不懂的时候，做自己认为对的事情。在很多人说这款车怎么怎么好的时候，我突然觉得这车有些似曾相识，大排量+自吸+7座SUV+进口现代……我以前在4S店做二手车的时候，收购过一台，我绞尽脑汁想了半天，忽然想起来，当年进口现代不就有一款车叫做维拉克斯嘛，它也是个V6横置发动机的大SUV，3.8L的大排量，售价高达30~40万，显然，它当年的定位比胜达更高，但是卖的非常惨，几乎很少有人知道，这帕里斯帝（Palisade）难道不就是维拉克斯的继承者吗，连名字都很像。这下就有意思了，很多人都觉得买韩系没有意义，因为要论保值和省心，不如买日系，要绝对性价比，不如买华系，但是这台帕里斯帝，基本上没有人会质疑定价有问题。关键就是，这么个大家伙，配上3.5L V6大排量发动机，一般家庭是否能接受？这套动力到底怎样？油耗高不高？这车有什么优缺点吗？国外这车卖的怎样？跟国内的配置区别大吗？如果有对帕里斯帝感兴趣的朋友，今天过后去4S店就不会再有问题了。首先，对于大排量自然吸气这件事，我说说自己的看法。我相信绝大多数家庭肯定是不太能接受的。很多国产车，同样这么大个壳子，用的还是台1.5T发动机。而像汉兰达，全新胜达，锐界，昂科旗这类的车型，用的是2.0T发动机，我觉得2.0T是大家比较能够接受的。再大点儿的像是福特探险者，用的是2.3T发动机，大家也还算能接受。可是，真给个3.5L-V6的机子，很多人看着都怕，毕竟车子买来是开的，买之前当然会嚷嚷着要动力，但是谁都希望马儿又能跑，又尽量少吃草。不过肯定也有些不怕马儿多吃草的车主，比如有的人公司可以报销油费，有的人预算本身就充足，不在乎，还有的人天生喜好大排量自吸，预算刚好又够得着。其次，也不要因为这车是大排量+低价格，就觉得好像不买就亏了，我们要清楚，自己真的需要7座SUV吗，如果只是自己上下班代步，偶尔带着自己的爱人和孩子跑跑长途、出去自驾游什么的，那这种7座SUV利用率真的不高。就算是自己三口之家，外带夫妻双方四个老人，有这种7座的需求，那为何不买个MPV呢，舒适度可比SUV要好太多了。在此之前，我在团队里进行了一个小范围的调研，我发现兄弟们的观点是两个极端，有几个人就觉得不用看牌子，车子好就行，帕里斯帝这车还是个V6发动机，价格也就三十来万，感觉挺实在的。但是也有人觉得，这车的发动机都和海外版本的不一样，然后还阉割了不少配置，再一个现代的品牌力太弱了，花三十多万买这车有点划不来。后来我在网上看了一些网友们的评价，我发现也是争议不断，不过人红是非多，被人挑三拣四，总归是还有人在注意你，最怕的是没人讨论你，当你不存在。据我跟一线销售了解的情况，这车卖的其实很好，现在订车，过年前都不一定能提到车，订车甚至还要选装，或者在4S店加装潢才行。那么，今天我们就来好好聊一聊这台有些争议性的现代帕里斯帝。关于帕里斯帝韩系车这几年在中国汽车市场的颓势有目共睹，不管是现代还是起亚，日子都不太好过，当然这其中也不只是产品因素，包括韩国车企对于中国市场的态度、社会大环境、国际关系等等，都有影响。那么帕里斯帝这台车刚在国内放出消息的时候，很多人其实就有点坐不住了，那时候很多人都在猜，这个V6发动机+8AT变速箱的动力配置，接近5米的车长，还是个7座SUV的设定……不少人就觉得这车估计不会便宜（多数是少量进口到国内，提升一下品牌力，做做样子，不是真的要跑量的车型），因为这车在美国的7座最低配SEL版起售价是35175美金（折合人民币约23万）、7座中配Limited版本起售价45125美金（折合人民币约29万）、7座顶配Calligraphy版本起售价46050美金（折合人民币约30万）。需要说明的是，美版只有顶配车型才标配四驱，另外两个版本需要花1700美金进行选装，还有一个消息我来不及去证实了，如果有在美国的朋友可以帮忙看看，据说这车在美国销量6000-7000台每月，是热门车型，部分经销商还要加价才给提车。当然，美国市场还有一个32525美金的SE丐中丐版，不过这不在我们今天对比的范围内，因为这是个8座车，说白了就是个用来拖货的工具车。很多人在售价还未公布的时候就猜测，觉得帕里斯帝在国内上市的定价不会便宜，大概率不会低于40万，因为这台车并没有像福特探险者这样进行合资生产，而是采用了全进口的方式，这个排量摆在这儿，车辆的进口关税都够喝一壶的，结果，好家伙，29.88万~32.98万的价格一出来，让不少人惊讶不已，包括我自己在刚看到价格的时候就开始沉思，这韩国车企到底想干啥？用这款车表个态，开始重视中国市场了？还是当真要用这款车来跑量，取代汉兰达，想做7座市场的大哥位置？于是，我就深入的研究了一下，发现这款车网友吐槽最多的，就是发动机中外有别。美版帕里斯帝全系使用的是291HP/355Nm的3.8L-V6发动机，而国内出售的帕里斯帝则搭载的是一台272HP/336Nm的3.5L-V6发动机，可能有人会觉得，这不就是排量少了0.3L吗，应该没什么太大的区别吧？其实并不是这样，因为这颗3.5L V6发动机并不是从3.8L缩缸而来，而是用了另外一台代号G6DC的单奥拓循环MPI多点电喷发动机，这个发动机官方取了个名字叫“Lambda”，曾经搭载在2010年的胜达上面（国内没有这个版本卖），一直到2018年第四代胜达都还在使用，这颗发动机的优点就是耐操、平顺性好，但是缺点也很明显，就是油耗高，因为多点电喷的发动机有一个天生的缺陷就是燃油喷射压力低，所以汽油无法充分的雾化，也无法与空气进行充分的混合，进而影响发动机的燃烧。此外，多点电喷的发动机其实除了油耗高点之外，其他方面的优势还是挺明显的，比如技术更成熟更稳定、长期使用后的积碳少、维护保养更方便也更便宜、对油品的要求不高……这也是为什么我们看到国内的帕里斯帝可以加92号油。那么，为什么要采用这样的设定，我觉得和所谓的“减配”或者“特供”没有什么关系，因为中东版的帕里斯帝也用的是这台发动机，这一点我要替现代证明一下，不是减配和特供，只是针对不同地区进行了不同的动力系统配置，而且这个发动机竟然能让现代做成满足国6排放，这一点是我在之前没想到的。那么，现代为什么要给不同地区车型配备不同的发动机，我私下里猜测有几个原因：第一，帕里斯帝的生产工厂只有韩国釜山一家，而帕里斯帝是全球供应的车型，所以其本身的生产力就有限，这也是为什么很多准车主等车需要3个月左右的原因（通过手机app可以查看从生产到运输的过程，跟快递一样），没办法，就那么一家厂子在做，还要供应全球市场，压力太大了。第二，我们都知道韩系车企和日系车企都特别重视美国市场，所以各种新产品和好东西都会给他们的美国爸爸们先用，至于土豪云集的中东客户们，反正他们也不太在意油耗，自产自销的汽油比水还便宜，那就给你弄个稍微老一点的发动机，但是保证你皮实耐用。而咱们中国市场，油价肯定没有水便宜，油品也就那么回事，真给你配个3.8L-V6的发动机，价格肯定就不是现在这样子了，这么大排量，再让你加95号油，马上就有人要来DISS：韩国车真当自己是豪华品牌啊，这是没有公主命，生了公主病。第三，帕里斯帝这台车在中国市场的定位和目的，我猜测大概率是用来提升品牌力的，所以现代也不一定太追求销量，反倒是可以利用这台车，为后续的自家的高端品牌捷尼赛思做个铺垫，我相信很多朋友也看了捷尼赛思的GV80，那个颜值、那个配置……我都有点流口水，现代通过帕里斯帝这台车，可以在正常销售的同时，为进口现代车进行试水（毕竟已经很久没有进口现代卖了，之前的退网风波也是闹的沸沸扬扬），甚至可以说帕里斯帝在国内遇到的问题越多越好，特别是在渠道和售后方面的问题，现代可以借此去给捷尼赛思做好充足的准备。除了发动机不同之外，在国内售卖的帕里斯帝相比于美版车型少了什么呢？我梳理了一下，主要是少了第三排的放倒&升起按键、老板键、遮阳帘、HUD抬头显示、喇叭的数量、后排隐私玻璃、全地形按钮中间的四驱中锁……其实很多人主要纠结的点在于这个四驱中锁，毕竟有这个中锁之后越野能力确实会得到不小的提升，而且这个功能在美版帕里斯帝的四驱版本上是标配的（选配的四驱也有），但是咱们中规版本没有。所以我就在想，就算现代为了保证自己的利润空间，为什么现代不能把这些配置列入选配单里呢，就算中国的消费者好忽悠，但是中国汽车自媒体不好忽悠啊，移动互联网又那么发达，多刷刷小视频，看看百车全说，就都知道了啊。后来我又琢磨了一下，我觉得还是成本问题，如果标配，价格就上去了，如果选配，估计是怕交付周期跟不上，因为这车是以全进口方式进入国内，再选配的话，整个交付周期就会被拉的更长，而现代本身也不会像保时捷那样具有极强的品牌力，所以也不太敢弄像保时捷那样让客户选完配置回家等半年再提车。如果想买帕里斯帝，或者说那些对于帕里斯帝感兴趣的人，我相信大多数都是冲着那颗V6发动机去的，因为这台车可以说是国内40万内唯一能买到的、搭载V6发动机的7座SUV，关键而且还满足国6排放，但是购买的同时也要考虑清楚几个问题：1. 选择大排量发动机必然伴随着高油耗，更何况是这台老发动机，如果你想要这台车在城市里油耗低于15L/百公里（有网友晒出过这款车的油耗，综合油耗13L左右），我觉得难度挺大，毕竟这台车在汽车能源消耗量标识上写的市区工况就已经达到了14.9L，但是这台车的油箱只有71L，所以我估计在城市内走走停停，一箱油应该也就跑个400-500KM左右。2. 这台车由于是全进口引进，所以在车辆维修时的价格，肯定是要高于合资生产的北京现代，并且核心零部件的供货渠道是非常窄的，大多数情况下只有品牌授权的4S店才有货，所以假如后期过保，车辆的核心部件出问题需要自费修理，那这价格……帕里斯帝的市场情况那么，现在帕里斯帝的市场情况如何，价格怎么样，什么人会去买？这也是我们今天要着重聊一聊的。首先，帕里斯帝一共就三个配置可选，29.88万的两驱自动GL版、31.08万的四驱自动GL版、32.98万的四驱自动GLS版，目前的市场行情是全系没有优惠。其中，两驱自动GL和四驱自动GL的区别看名字就知道了，主要就差一套四驱系统，多了越野和雪地模式，以及陡坡缓降功能。顶配四驱自动GLS比中配GL又贵了1万9千元，同时新增：LED大灯、真皮座椅、主驾腿托调节、副驾电动调节（可以高低调节）、主驾座椅记忆、后排座椅电动放倒、并线辅助、倒车车侧预警、全速自适应巡航、电动天窗、电动后备厢和位置记忆、前排手机无线充电、老板键、全车车窗一键升降、后视镜记忆和倒车自动下翻、雨量感应雨刷、负离子发生器……多的东西还挺多的，所以终端市场现在顶配订单是最多的，我当然也是推荐直接上顶配。在原有配置的基础上，还有很多选装，但是需要提醒，只有顶配才有2+2+2的6座版本，其他都是一些舒适性和安全性配置，根据自己需求来，但是选装之后，订车周期肯定会变的更长。众所周知，进口现代4S店前几年就已经退网退光了，当年进口现代的市场部和销售部直接取消了。随着帕里斯帝上市，进口现代算是再度回归了，现在基本都是与北京现代4S店合作，但合作的4S店很少，南京本地就只有一家有条件出售帕里斯帝，所以不要抱期望能像在其他品牌那里直接提到现车，之前一段时间就连展车也是互相借来借去“巡展”，不过最近有些4S店开始有试驾车了。但是去之前。一定要上官网查询一下哪些是合作经销商，别空跑一趟。现在进口现代官网开启了“线上购车”，这也是最主流的购车渠道，交付时间依据车型和配置不同会有较大差别，官网上有少量现车售卖，一般都加了些配置，2周就可以提车，如果自己下单并且选装的话，长的话需要3个月左右。等车到了，可以去合作的北现4S店提车或者送车到家，日后也去北现4S店保养，但是我看网上就有劳恩斯酷派车主吐槽，北现4S店的师傅们对这种进口车型很不熟悉，同时配件价格也不便宜……不得不说，进口现代现在比较惨，目前只有帕里斯帝这么一款车在售，不过总好过进口起亚吧，现在一款车也没了。买帕里斯帝，你得先体验一把“线上购车”这种不太寻常的购车方式（线上下单也就意味着价格没得谈），同时还得看看本地有几家特约维修站，比如南京只有两家，再考虑一下以后保养是不是会遇到麻烦，毕竟万一哪天进口现代又退出中国了。所以，买帕里斯帝的客户都是真爱啊，其中很多都是冲着3.5L-V6的大排量自吸来的。顺便提一下另一台车，同样属于进口现代的捷尼赛思GV80，很多人都说“买帕里斯帝，不如等GV80”，那么这又是什么车？首先，捷尼赛思这个牌子，对于现代集团来讲，是现代的高端品牌，创立于2015年，就相当于雷克萨斯之于丰田、讴歌之于本田、英菲尼迪之于日产，在韩国本土的地位非常高。平常追韩剧的人应该都看到过，基本上是剧里霸道社长、富家公子哥的标配，就算不追韩剧，你看韩剧的老婆也一定问过你这个带着翅膀logo的车是什么牌子吧，是不是宾利？（车标跟宾利很像）捷尼赛思一直说要入华，但是现在一直没用大的动作（我觉得主要原因，就是经销商网络建设问题），不过现有的消息是今年就会入华。这其实已经不算是捷尼赛思第一次入华了，在2015年品牌正式独立之前，现代就曾经引入国内过50万级别的“劳恩斯”，换代之后又改名“捷恩斯”，还进口过旗舰车型百万级别的“雅科仕”，这些车多少都和现在的捷尼赛思有传承关系，不过捷尼赛思那时候还没有独立，所以这些车被归属于进口现代。后来，捷尼赛思直接独立成了一个豪华品牌，将原来现代旗下的高端车型和那些乱七八糟的命名重新整合了一下，比如雅科仕换代之后其实就是现在的捷尼赛思G90，捷恩斯其实对应的就是捷尼赛思的G80，此外还有一款对标奔驰C级、宝马3系、奥迪A4L的G70。个人感觉，捷尼赛思如果真的来到中国，混到天了，可能也就是英菲尼迪的水平。回到捷尼赛思GV80这款车上，这是捷尼赛思首款SUV，属于中大型SUV范畴，有消息说GV80将是捷尼赛思入华后的首批引入车型，但是对于那些说着买帕里斯帝不如等GV80的人，我想泼一盆冷水。虽然两台车同属中大型SUV，但一个是现代，一个是捷尼赛思，GV80的定位绝对高于帕里斯帝很多，反映在定价上估计也会相差很多，参考帕里斯帝在美国顶配售价46050美元，而GV80起售就是48900美元，和奔驰GLE、宝马X5差不了多少了，所以个人预计GV80来了国内之后至少50万以上起步，我估计未来国产X5可能也就50多万起。不过，曾经也有消息说捷尼赛思会考虑逐渐半国产化，将进口零部件进口进来，并在北京现代的工厂进行组装，那么GV80的定价可能会略有下降，不过目前没什么消息，估计也是遥遥无期。那么，捷尼赛思在哪能买到呢？如果捷尼赛思想要打开中国市场，必然不能再走进口现代的路子，必须建立自己的4S店，B格一定要高高的，和现代彻底区分开，我在网上一查，发现其实可以搜到捷尼赛思的4S店，比如上海的香港广场，成都的远洋太古里……显示的都是在建，而且这个在建已经持续相当一段时间了，有没有当地的朋友了解的，可以在评论区告知一下？可能是去年疫情原因，进度被推迟了吧。所以，要买帕里斯帝就买吧，GV80一是不知道到时候价格你能不能承受，二是不知道到底什么时候才能来，三是真的来了，动力配置又不会不会有什么变化。对于捷尼赛思的未来，我并不抱有特别乐观的态度，我前面说了，可能玩出花了，也就英菲尼迪的水准，看看那些二线豪华品牌，只有雷克萨斯能在保证高销量的同时不玩价格跳水，其他的要么跳得一个比一个狠，要么卖得一个比一个惨，要么既跳得狠也卖得惨，要么干脆保持高冷玩小众。更重要的是，这些二线豪华品牌要么是凯迪拉克、捷豹、路虎这种拥有悠久历史的豪华品牌，要么是讴歌、英菲尼迪等背后有本田和日产这种高知名度、高认可度的母公司作为坚强后盾，就这样还是打不过BBA，甚至有些连存活都成问题。更关键的是，现在所谓的豪华品牌都开始国产化，完全依赖进口，很难有竞争力，虽然2019年也传闻捷尼赛思考虑合资生产，但是后来也没消息了，不过我觉得，先进口探探路，再国产才是合理的，直接国产的可能性微乎其微。不过，美国人对这些我们眼中的“二线豪华品牌”的认可度非常高，尤其是雷克萨斯、讴歌、英菲尼迪这些“日本背景的外来品牌”很受欢迎，话说回来，这些品牌本身一开始就是诞生在北美地区、主打美国市场，玩的就是性价比，甚至过了N年才回到自己的老家日本市场，反倒是凯迪拉克、林肯这些纯粹的本土豪华品牌，在美国本土一直走下坡路。而捷尼赛思其实也是将韩国和美国市场作为发展重心，所以它在美国的发展，对于一个新品牌来说势头也不错。这里插一句题外话，你仔细研究韩国的企业，会发现他跟日本企业有所不同，日本一般都是把最好的产品先留在国内市场，然后再拿去美国销售，而韩国企业打造产品一般都是站在全球化的角度，以前看过经济学专家分析，说韩国企业的危机意识非常强，本土人口实在太少，做韩国本土化的产品毫无意义，所以才被逼全球化的。但是，在中国的汽车市场，我实在是看不到捷尼赛思相比刚才提到的那些二线豪华品牌有什么肉眼可见的优势，几乎可以肯定，它依旧逃脱不了二线豪华品牌在国内的销量和价格“魔咒”。毕竟，这是一个基于现代的豪华品牌，而现代自身的品牌力在合资品牌当中是比较弱的，同时进口的捷尼赛思在国内的知名度更是非常低，买豪华品牌的人，第一要素就是品牌的认知度要高，要撑门面啊，而捷尼赛思一开始还是以进口方式进入国内，并没有任何品牌和价格上的优势，所以捷尼赛思会以何种策略打开中国市场，是舍价求量，还是干脆保持调性不求销量，可以拭目以待一下……写在最后总的来说，对于帕里斯帝这台车，我的想法很简单。如果你能接受它的价格，以及后期的使用、养护等方面的开销，至于这款车属于哪个品牌，你根本不看中，那就直接入手，不过建议最起码也去买个GL四驱版本的，有条件可以直接入GLS四驱版。如果你对于这台车后期的使用、养护、维修费用哪怕有一点点的顾虑，那咱们还是再看看别家的产品，毕竟如果只是日常城市内驾驶，这种大排量自然吸气的发动机，有时候并不能像你想的那么美好。其实说了这么多，有一个问题一直困扰着我，那就是在现在这个时代，在大环境都不断倡导节能减排的大背景之下，在新能源车不断蓬勃发展的情况下，还去选择买大排量自然吸气发动机车子的意义在哪里？韩国车企为什么逆势引入大排量自吸的产品呢？双积分政策下，现代的积分够用吗？其实对于韩国车企而言，转型新能源我觉得才是当务之急啊，比如伊兰特那款车，如果出个插混，卖个10多万，那竞争力一下子就上来了。有的人可能会说，大排量发动机的平顺性和加速时的线性感是小排量发动机，尤其是小排量涡轮发动机无法比拟的，但是回头想想大排量车型的排量税，还有每年要交的车船税，似乎也不是那么的美好。音频图文更新在订阅号：

V6发动机并不是从3.8L缩缸而来，而是用了另外一台代号G6DC的单奥拓循环MPI多点电喷发动机，这个发动机官方取了个名字叫“Lambda”，曾经搭载在2010年的胜达上面（国内没有这个版本卖），一直到2018年第四代胜达都还在使用，这颗发动机的优点就是耐操、平顺性好，但是缺点也很明显，就是油耗高，因为多点电喷的发动机有一个天生的缺陷就是燃油喷射压力低，所以汽油无法充分的雾化，也无法与空气进行充分的混合，进而影响发动机的燃烧。此外，多点电喷的发动机其实除了油耗高点之外，其他方面的优势还是挺明显的，比如技术更成熟更稳定、长期使用后的积碳少、维护保养更方便也更便宜、对油品的要求不高……这也是为什么我们看到国内的帕里斯帝可以加92号油。那么，为什么要采用这样的设定，我觉得和所谓的“减配”或者“特供”没有什么关系，因为中东版的帕里斯帝也用的是这台发动机，这一点我要替现代证明一下，不是减配和特供，只是针对不同地区进行了不同的动力系统配置，而且这个发动机竟然能让现代做成满足国6排放，这一点是我在之前没想到的。那么，现代为什么要给不同地区车型配备不同的发动机，我私下里猜测有几个原因：第一，帕里斯帝的生产工厂只有韩国釜山一家，而帕里斯帝是全球供应的车型，所以其本身的生产力就有限，这也是为什么很多准车主等车需要3个月左右的原因（通过手机app可以查看从生产到运输的过程，跟快递一样），没办法，就那么一家厂子在做，还要供应全球市场，压力太大了。第二，我们都知道韩系车企和日系车企都特别重视美国市场，所以各种新产品和好东西都会给他们的美国爸爸们先用，至于土豪云集的中东客户们，反正他们也不太在意油耗，自产自销的汽油比水还便宜，那就给你弄个稍微老一点的发动机，但是保证你皮实耐用。而咱们中国市场，油价肯定没有水便宜，油品也就那么回事，真给你配个3.8L-V6的发动机，价格肯定就不是现在这样子了，这么大排量，再让你加95号油，马上就有人要来DISS：韩国车真当自己是豪华品牌啊，这是没有公主命，生了公主病。第三，帕里斯帝这台车在中国市场的定位和目的，我猜测大概率是用来提升品牌力的，所以现代也不一定太追求销量，反倒是可以利用这台车，为后续的自家的高端品牌捷尼赛思做个铺垫，我相信很多朋友也看了捷尼赛思的GV80，那个颜值、那个配置……我都有点流口水，现代通过帕里斯帝这台车，可以在正常销售的同时，为进口现代车进行试水（毕竟已经很久没有进口现代卖了，之前的退网风波也是闹的沸沸扬扬），甚至可以说帕里斯帝在国内遇到的问题越多越好，特别是在渠道和售后方面的问题，现代可以借此去给捷尼赛思做好充足的准备。除了发动机不同之外，在国内售卖的帕里斯帝相比于美版车型少了什么呢？我梳理了一下，主要是少了第三排的放倒&升起按键、老板键、遮阳帘、HUD抬头显示、喇叭的数量、后排隐私玻璃、全地形按钮中间的四驱中锁……其实很多人主要纠结的点在于这个四驱中锁，毕竟有这个中锁之后越野能力确实会得到不小的提升，而且这个功能在美版帕里斯帝的四驱版本上是标配的（选配的四驱也有），但是咱们中规版本没有。所以我就在想，就算现代为了保证自己的利润空间，为什么现代不能把这些配置列入选配单里呢，就算中国的消费者好忽悠，但是中国汽车自媒体不好忽悠啊，移动互联网又那么发达，多刷刷小视频，看看百车全说，就都知道了啊。后来我又琢磨了一下，我觉得还是成本问题，如果标配，价格就上去了，如果选配，估计是怕交付周期跟不上，因为这车是以全进口方式进入国内，再选配的话，整个交付周期就会被拉的更长，而现代本身也不会像保时捷那样具有极强的品牌力，所以也不太敢弄像保时捷那样让客户选完配置回家等半年再提车。如果想买帕里斯帝，或者说那些对于帕里斯帝感兴趣的人，我相信大多数都是冲着那颗V6发动机去的，因为这台车可以说是国内40万内唯一能买到的、搭载V6发动机的7座SUV，关键而且还满足国6排放，但是购买的同时也要考虑清楚几个问题：1. 选择大排量发动机必然伴随着高油耗，更何况是这台老发动机，如果你想要这台车在城市里油耗低于15L/百公里（有网友晒出过这款车的油耗，综合油耗13L左右），我觉得难度挺大，毕竟这台车在汽车能源消耗量标识上写的市区工况就已经达到了14.9L，但是这台车的油箱只有71L，所以我估计在城市内走走停停，一箱油应该也就跑个400-500KM左右。2. 这台车由于是全进口引进，所以在车辆维修时的价格，肯定是要高于合资生产的北京现代，并且核心零部件的供货渠道是非常窄的，大多数情况下只有品牌授权的4S店才有货，所以假如后期过保，车辆的核心部件出问题需要自费修理，那这价格……帕里斯帝的市场情况那么，现在帕里斯帝的市场情况如何，价格怎么样，什么人会去买？这也是我们今天要着重聊一聊的。首先，帕里斯帝一共就三个配置可选，29.88万的两驱自动GL版、31.08万的四驱自动GL版、32.98万的四驱自动GLS版，目前的市场行情是全系没有优惠。其中，两驱自动GL和四驱自动GL的区别看名字就知道了，主要就差一套四驱系统，多了越野和雪地模式，以及陡坡缓降功能。顶配四驱自动GLS比中配GL又贵了1万9千元，同时新增：LED大灯、真皮座椅、主驾腿托调节、副驾电动调节（可以高低调节）、主驾座椅记忆、后排座椅电动放倒、并线辅助、倒车车侧预警、全速自适应巡航、电动天窗、电动后备厢和位置记忆、前排手机无线充电、老板键、全车车窗一键升降、后视镜记忆和倒车自动下翻、雨量感应雨刷、负离子发生器……多的东西还挺多的，所以终端市场现在顶配订单是最多的，我当然也是推荐直接上顶配。在原有配置的基础上，还有很多选装，但是需要提醒，只有顶配才有2+2+2的6座版本，其他都是一些舒适性和安全性配置，根据自己需求来，但是选装之后，订车周期肯定会变的更长。众所周知，进口现代4S店前几年就已经退网退光了，当年进口现代的市场部和销售部直接取消了。随着帕里斯帝上市，进口现代算是再度回归了，现在基本都是与北京现代4S店合作，但合作的4S店很少，南京本地就只有一家有条件出售帕里斯帝，所以不要抱期望能像在其他品牌那里直接提到现车，之前一段时间就连展车也是互相借来借去“巡展”，不过最近有些4S店开始有试驾车了。但是去之前。一定要上官网查询一下哪些是合作经销商，别空跑一趟。现在进口现代官网开启了“线上购车”，这也是最主流的购车渠道，交付时间依据车型和配置不同会有较大差别，官网上有少量现车售卖，一般都加了些配置，2周就可以提车，如果自己下单并且选装的话，长的话需要3个月左右。等车到了，可以去合作的北现4S店提车或者送车到家，日后也去北现4S店保养，但是我看网上就有劳恩斯酷派车主吐槽，北现4S店的师傅们对这种进口车型很不熟悉，同时配件价格也不便宜……不得不说，进口现代现在比较惨，目前只有帕里斯帝这么一款车在售，不过总好过进口起亚吧，现在一款车也没了。买帕里斯帝，你得先体验一把“线上购车”这种不太寻常的购车方式（线上下单也就意味着价格没得谈），同时还得看看本地有几家特约维修站，比如南京只有两家，再考虑一下以后保养是不是会遇到麻烦，毕竟万一哪天进口现代又退出中国了。所以，买帕里斯帝的客户都是真爱啊，其中很多都是冲着3.5L-V6的大排量自吸来的。顺便提一下另一台车，同样属于进口现代的捷尼赛思GV80，很多人都说“买帕里斯帝，不如等GV80”，那么这又是什么车？首先，捷尼赛思这个牌子，对于现代集团来讲，是现代的高端品牌，创立于2015年，就相当于雷克萨斯之于丰田、讴歌之于本田、英菲尼迪之于日产，在韩国本土的地位非常高。平常追韩剧的人应该都看到过，基本上是剧里霸道社长、富家公子哥的标配，就算不追韩剧，你看韩剧的老婆也一定问过你这个带着翅膀logo的车是什么牌子吧，是不是宾利？（车标跟宾利很像）捷尼赛思一直说要入华，但是现在一直没用大的动作（我觉得主要原因，就是经销商网络建设问题），不过现有的消息是今年就会入华。这其实已经不算是捷尼赛思第一次入华了，在2015年品牌正式独立之前，现代就曾经引入国内过50万级别的“劳恩斯”，换代之后又改名“捷恩斯”，还进口过旗舰车型百万级别的“雅科仕”，这些车多少都和现在的捷尼赛思有传承关系，不过捷尼赛思那时候还没有独立，所以这些车被归属于进口现代。后来，捷尼赛思直接独立成了一个豪华品牌，将原来现代旗下的高端车型和那些乱七八糟的命名重新整合了一下，比如雅科仕换代之后其实就是现在的捷尼赛思G90，捷恩斯其实对应的就是捷尼赛思的G80，此外还有一款对标奔驰C级、宝马3系、奥迪A4L的G70。个人感觉，捷尼赛思如果真的来到中国，混到天了，可能也就是英菲尼迪的水平。回到捷尼赛思GV80这款车上，这是捷尼赛思首款SUV，属于中大型SUV范畴，有消息说GV80将是捷尼赛思入华后的首批引入车型，但是对于那些说着买帕里斯帝不如等GV80的人，我想泼一盆冷水。虽然两台车同属中大型SUV，但一个是现代，一个是捷尼赛思，GV80的定位绝对高于帕里斯帝很多，反映在定价上估计也会相差很多，参考帕里斯帝在美国顶配售价46050美元，而GV80起售就是48900美元，和奔驰GLE、宝马X5差不了多少了，所以个人预计GV80来了国内之后至少50万以上起步，我估计未来国产X5可能也就50多万起。不过，曾经也有消息说捷尼赛思会考虑逐渐半国产化，将进口零部件进口进来，并在北京现代的工厂进行组装，那么GV80的定价可能会略有下降，不过目前没什么消息，估计也是遥遥无期。那么，捷尼赛思在哪能买到呢？如果捷尼赛思想要打开中国市场，必然不能再走进口现代的路子，必须建立自己的4S店，B格一定要高高的，和现代彻底区分开，我在网上一查，发现其实可以搜到捷尼赛思的4S店，比如上海的香港广场，成都的远洋太古里……显示的都是在建，而且这个在建已经持续相当一段时间了，有没有当地的朋友了解的，可以在评论区告知一下？可能是去年疫情原因，进度被推迟了吧。所以，要买帕里斯帝就买吧，GV80一是不知道到时候价格你能不能承受，二是不知道到底什么时候才能来，三是真的来了，动力配置又不会不会有什么变化。对于捷尼赛思的未来，我并不抱有特别乐观的态度，我前面说了，可能玩出花了，也就英菲尼迪的水准，看看那些二线豪华品牌，只有雷克萨斯能在保证高销量的同时不玩价格跳水，其他的要么跳得一个比一个狠，要么卖得一个比一个惨，要么既跳得狠也卖得惨，要么干脆保持高冷玩小众。更重要的是，这些二线豪华品牌要么是凯迪拉克、捷豹、路虎这种拥有悠久历史的豪华品牌，要么是讴歌、英菲尼迪等背后有本田和日产这种高知名度、高认可度的母公司作为坚强后盾，就这样还是打不过BBA，甚至有些连存活都成问题。更关键的是，现在所谓的豪华品牌都开始国产化，完全依赖进口，很难有竞争力，虽然2019年也传闻捷尼赛思考虑合资生产，但是后来也没消息了，不过我觉得，先进口探探路，再国产才是合理的，直接国产的可能性微乎其微。不过，美国人对这些我们眼中的“二线豪华品牌”的认可度非常高，尤其是雷克萨斯、讴歌、英菲尼迪这些“日本背景的外来品牌”很受欢迎，话说回来，这些品牌本身一开始就是诞生在北美地区、主打美国市场，玩的就是性价比，甚至过了N年才回到自己的老家日本市场，反倒是凯迪拉克、林肯这些纯粹的本土豪华品牌，在美国本土一直走下坡路。而捷尼赛思其实也是将韩国和美国市场作为发展重心，所以它在美国的发展，对于一个新品牌来说势头也不错。这里插一句题外话，你仔细研究韩国的企业，会发现他跟日本企业有所不同，日本一般都是把最好的产品先留在国内市场，然后再拿去美国销售，而韩国企业打造产品一般都是站在全球化的角度，以前看过经济学专家分析，说韩国企业的危机意识非常强，本土人口实在太少，做韩国本土化的产品毫无意义，所以才被逼全球化的。但是，在中国的汽车市场，我实在是看不到捷尼赛思相比刚才提到的那些二线豪华品牌有什么肉眼可见的优势，几乎可以肯定，它依旧逃脱不了二线豪华品牌在国内的销量和价格“魔咒”。毕竟，这是一个基于现代的豪华品牌，而现代自身的品牌力在合资品牌当中是比较弱的，同时进口的捷尼赛思在国内的知名度更是非常低，买豪华品牌的人，第一要素就是品牌的认知度要高，要撑门面啊，而捷尼赛思一开始还是以进口方式进入国内，并没有任何品牌和价格上的优势，所以捷尼赛思会以何种策略打开中国市场，是舍价求量，还是干脆保持调性不求销量，可以拭目以待一下……写在最后总的来说，对于帕里斯帝这台车，我的想法很简单。如果你能接受它的价格，以及后期的使用、养护等方面的开销，至于这款车属于哪个品牌，你根本不看中，那就直接入手，不过建议最起码也去买个GL四驱版本的，有条件可以直接入GLS四驱版。如果你对于这台车后期的使用、养护、维修费用哪怕有一点点的顾虑，那咱们还是再看看别家的产品，毕竟如果只是日常城市内驾驶，这种大排量自然吸气的发动机，有时候并不能像你想的那么美好。其实说了这么多，有一个问题一直困扰着我，那就是在现在这个时代，在大环境都不断倡导节能减排的大背景之下，在新能源车不断蓬勃发展的情况下，还去选择买大排量自然吸气发动机车子的意义在哪里？韩国车企为什么逆势引入大排量自吸的产品呢？双积分政策下，现代的积分够用吗？其实对于韩国车企而言，转型新能源我觉得才是当务之急啊，比如伊兰特那款车，如果出个插混，卖个10多万，那竞争力一下子就上来了。有的人可能会说，大排量发动机的平顺性和加速时的线性感是小排量发动机，尤其是小排量涡轮发动机无法比拟的，但是回头想想大排量车型的排量税，还有每年要交的车船税，似乎也不是那么的美好。音频图文更新在订阅号：

With the end of one year and the beginning of another, it's always a good time to look back at what happened in the automotive world in the past 12 months and pick cars of the year. It was an ideal time to be part of an industry in 2018. Alternative fuels, ride-sharing platforms, alternative fuel, and the increasing interest in vintage cars and trucks. It was a whirlwind year. The Genesis G80 and G90 are among TheWeeklyDriver.com's Cars of the Year. Co-hosts Bruce Aldrich and James Raia recap the year in Episode #67 of The Weekly Driver Podcast. We focus on the top-10 cars of the year I selected as editor and publisher of www.theweeklydriver.com. Most industry publications and organizations select vehicles of the year in the preceding calendar year. At the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, the 2019 Genesis G70 received several car-of-the-year awards. Genesis is deserving of praise, but its accolades follow the long-time practice of honoring cars too early. We discuss the best cars of the year at the end of the year. It seems more logical to have time to consider all vehicles and add perspective to the selections. My selections for 2018 were chosen from estimated 40 cars and trucks I reviewed in 2018.

Le constructeur coréen Hyundai a déjà confondu les sceptiques une fois. Le temps des Pony et des Stellar semble bien loin et pourtant, c’était au milieu des années 80… Cela ne fait donc pas une éternité. Maintenant que sa réputation est rétablie, le géant coréen veut passer à l’échelon supérieur avec Genesis, sa division de prestige. Comme l’ont fait Honda, Toyota et Nissan avec Acura, Lexus et Infiniti. Mission impossible ou pari gagné ? Après avoir essayé la G90 le printemps dernier, le chroniqueur automobile Philippe Laguë a fait l’essai de la G80. Verdict dans ce podcast. Cet article Essai routier : Genesis G80 (podcast 31) est apparu en premier sur Philippe Laguë.

But smaller engines need some sort of boost to provide the power that drivers need and want. That’s why turbocharging and supercharging have become so popular. Now comes the next step, electric boost. E-turbos and e-superchargers are about to hit the market, and we have an experimental Lincoln MKZ with an e-supercharger in the studio.PANEL: John McElroy, Autoline.tv; Gary Vasilash, Automotive Design and Production; David Zoia, WardsAuto.com; David Welch, Bloomberg
