771. The so-called luxury car

"Brother!"

Xiaohui's voice sounded crisply.

Today, everyone in the family is going to go to grandpa's house for dinner, and Zhou Fangyuan happens to have nothing to do, and is responsible for picking Xiaohui off school.

The driver was sent away by him, and today he drove by himself, not in the Bentley he usually sits. Bentley is very good, but it is too old-fashioned, for general business meetings or daily outings, occasionally take a car like Bentley, make yourself look more mature, and you can also show your identity a little bit or something. But if he goes out by himself, Zhou Fangyuan doesn't like this kind of car, after all, it still doesn't match his age. And the most important thing is that although there are many people who don't know Bentley's car, there are also people who know it, Xiaohui is in her third year of high school this year, and she will take the college entrance examination next year.

So he went out today and drove his mother's BMW, a pure white BMW, which looked quite ordinary. But that's just right, low-key!

"Brother, why are you driving my mother's car, it's too dirty!"

Xiaohui puffed out her mouth and said, a little dissatisfied.

Mom is a slang term for Beitong, and it can be used to call one's mother, or to call one's uncle's spouse. Zhou Fangyuan's father is the eldest in the family, and Xiaohui's father is Zhou Fangyuan's second uncle, so Zhou Fangyuan's father is Xiaohui's uncle. But here in Beitong, it is too rare to call Uncle like this, and no one is used to calling it that, everyone is used to calling it in slang. In slang, the uncle can be replaced by "daddy", and the uncle's spouse is "mom", as for his parents, it is okay to call him "mom and dad", and it is okay to call him "mom and dad" directly, and the title of "dad and mother" is rare, basically no one will call it that.

As soon as Zhou Fangyuan heard Xiaohui's words, he couldn't help but glance at her.

"You know what. ”

"Why don't I understand, brother, you're only in your twenties, can you not think about an old man in his forties and fifties, dull and boring all day long!"

"You ......"

Zhou Fangyuan was speechless by the little girl's words.

He is far more mature than he should be, after all, he has been a human being for two lifetimes, and there is nothing wrong with saying that he is forty or fifty years old, because his actual mental age is indeed forty or fifty. But as soon as Xiaohui said this, Zhou Fangyuan felt dissatisfied.

He snorted angrily and didn't take a stubble.

There is some truth in what Xiaohui said, in fact, if you think about it carefully, when you are doing business activities or meeting any guests, you wear formal clothes and ride in a low-key but not low-end car, which makes him look more mature. But in fact, in the eyes of others, he is still just a young man in his twenties after all. Even if you start from scratch...... But what should a young man in his twenties look like? Youth, freedom, and self-freedom!

The performance is a little excessive.,Clubbing.、Drinking.,Sisters.,But no matter what you do.,That's what a young man in his twenties should look like.。 It's not that young people in their twenties have to be how, but in their twenties, this is the age when a person is young and passionate, and if there is no arrogance at such an age, then he is not a young man.

Think about the average young person in his twenties who has just left college or has not yet graduated, and then think about yourself...... Well, Zhou Fangyuan also admitted that he was indeed a little lagging behind, at least in terms of what Xiaohui said, his performance did not look like a normal young man. But this is also normal, after all, not everyone is exactly the same, but, think about it carefully, you may have to make some changes, at least in daily life should have some changes, you can't stare at the business all day long, stare at the company and stare at the layout, like this, within ten years, the hair of your own brain is estimated to say goodbye.

So where to start?

That's right, let's start with the car!

Zhou Fangyuan suddenly had an idea in his heart.

Isn't Xiaohui disgusted with this car old-fashioned? In the eyes of Xiao Young, it may really be a little old-fashioned, so what kind of car is not old-fashioned? It's very simple, supercar!

Young people like to be cool and handsome, and supercars meet such standards.

Everyone has their own yearning for the ultimate life, although the current social science and technology is thriving, but it is inevitable that some people like the countryside, of course, most of them still like luxury cars and villas, especially luxury cars, which is the dream of most men. Zhou Fangyuan really doesn't know much about those top luxury cars, and he has also read some related posts in his previous life, which introduce many world-class luxury cars.

What are the criteria for a luxury car?

Generally speaking, a luxury car must have at least enough body size, a wheelbase of more than 2.5 meters, a total length of at least 4.5 meters, a width of at least 1.7 meters, and a powerful engine. Luxury cars generally use 6-cylinder engines, but if you want to make nearly 2 tons of behemoths move like a rabbit, you need more than 8 cylinders of engines to be competent, and the engine power is at least 110 kilowatts or more; Every detail of the car should be designed with safety in the first place, using glued safety glass or using bulletproof glass; the door must ensure sufficient strength in the event of a collision, and must be easy to open after an accident; there are perfect internal devices, roughly speaking, it should include: automatic windows, double-layer insulated sunroof, XX door lock with anti-theft function, leather upholstery, electric seats with automatic adjustment and memory functions, steering wheel and rearview mirrors, TV, car phone and navigation device, high-fidelity digital audio.

But the above can only be said to be the foundation at most, and if you can't even meet the above standards, you will definitely not be qualified to call yourself a luxury car, but even if you meet such standards, it may not be able to be called a luxury car.

The so-called luxury car, one is an extremely wide, luxuriously decorated car, full of aristocracy, as if Rolls-Royce, Bentley belong to this type; FERRARI, LAMBORGHINI, AND PORSCHE DO NOT BELONG TO THIS TYPE OF CAR, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A FEW MODELS SUCH AS PORSCHE BOXSER. The Ferrari 458, Lamborghini LP670 and Porsche GT2 are the top models of these brands, and they are not far behind F1 in terms of what they have achieved on the track.

Therefore, it is more appropriate to call these types of cars Road & Track.

Zhou Fangyuan probably knows the names and brands of some luxury cars, but he only knows that he couldn't afford such a car in his previous life, so the attention will be relatively low, which is also normal.

The post he read that ranked luxury cars didn't make much sense, and the correctness couldn't be guaranteed, but he could probably remember the content in it, and when he thought about it, well, it also had some reference role.

Among them, the name of the first luxury car, only a few people have heard of it, Silbe, this company was founded by car lovers, although the time is very short, their goal and dream is to create the world's most high-end car brand, and he made the car is also sky-high, the lowest price is also 50 million, for such a sky-high price of products, ordinary people can also have a good time, and there are very few people who can really understand this brand!

As for the second place car brand, friends who have a certain understanding of the automotive industry should have heard of Koenigsegg, which is completely used to make the logo of the Air Force, this company was founded in 1994, built by hand, with the purpose of manufacturing the world's fastest car, and its top model Koenigsegg CCR is indeed with a top speed of 387.87 km / h, once won the Guinness (Guinness) The world record confirms its title as the world's fastest production car, and the cheapest model of this brand is also around 26 million, which is indeed not cheap.

As for the third place, it can be said that it is widely known, Bugatti, has broken through in many speed records, it can be said that in the automotive industry he is the noun of speed and supercar, of course, this brand has been founded for hundreds of years, for such a luxury in the French automobile industry, during World War II changed hands several times, was acquired by Volkswagen in 1998, and now it is rising again in the car industry, and the price is at least about 25 million!

Pagani, ranked fourth, I believe that everyone should know more about this brand, from Modena, the hometown of sports cars in Italy, was established in 1982, it can be said that it is a very young manufacturer, using a large number of new handmade, exquisite craftsmanship and expensive prices are famous in the world, the lowest price in China is also 12 million, the price is expensive.

As for the fifth model is the more familiar Maybach, this brand is owned by Mercedes-Benz, 1921 to 1940 was famous in Europe, but due to poor market performance in 2013, the production was completely discontinued, 2014 Mercedes-Benz officially released a new sub-brand Mercedes-Maybach, at the same time, the brand's first model Maybach S-class also officially debuted in the world. The main top-of-the-line limousines are dominant, including bulletproof sedans, but often his price goes prohibitive.

In sixth place is Bentley, which is a well-known luxury car brand, founded in 1919 during the First World War to produce aero engines famous, after the war for the production of high-end luxury cars and famous all over the world, in 1931 Bentley was acquired by Rolls-Royce, in 1998 both were acquired by the German Volkswagen, and then BMW for 68 million US dollars to buy the right to use the Rolls-Royce trademark, but in the long history of nearly a hundred years, the Bentley brand is still shining, and continues to show the world noble, A high-quality car with elegance and craftsmanship.

As for the brand that ranks seventh and is little known, Shijue, because the manufacturer of this brand used to manufacture aircraft, it is not difficult to find that it was founded in 1898, with a unique brand style, using a mid-mounted engine, and a number of parameters adopt the standard of F1, and each model produces about 500 units, so it is even more precious this model, but in the end due to poor management in 2014, it declared bankruptcy. The price of its models is between 368~6.08 million, so the current models are even rarer and more precious.

The brand ranked eighth has now become a representative of many successful people, Rolls-Royce, a noble status symbol, high-end atmosphere on the grade, always gives people a kind of cold style, founded in 1906, in addition to manufacturing cars, he also manufactures aircraft engines, the famous Boeing airliner is the engine of Rolls-Royce was later accepted by the BMW Group, its Phantom, Phantom, Gust models are up to 5 million.

To be able to rank ninth is naturally a galloping horse, the famous Ferrari, from the famous knight's hometown, the favorite of many young people, and Lamborghini have some similarities, founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1929, mainly producing sports cars in the racing program, with an annual turnover of about 23.7 billion, such as Jin has become a representative of the supercar industry.

Needless to say, it is possible to rank 10th in the belief that the big scalper is running, and now it has become a supercar that everyone knows, combining fashion and speed, the most unexpected thing is that Lamborghini was founded at the beginning, mainly to know agricultural tractors, air conditioning equipment, etc., in 1936, and finally declared bankruptcy in 1980 due to poor management, and in 1998 it was included in Audi.

Of course, there are still many brands that didn't make the list. If nothing else, let's talk about Koenigsegg one:1, and it is estimated that not many people know about it.

Koenigsegg, which translates to "blade" in Chinese, is a supercar manufacturer from Sweden. With only 30 employees on the ground, the Koenigsegg One:1 is a luxury sports car launched by Koenigsegg in 2014 and is limited to just six units worldwide, and all of them sold out as soon as they were on display. It is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 turbocharged engine that can reach a top speed of 440 km/h, second only to the Silbe Tuatara's 443 km/h.

Of course, the price is not cheap.

But in the final analysis, luxury cars and luxury cars are no longer just a status symbol, but a kind of enjoyment of life. It is precisely because the luxury car has a complete set of safety, comfort configuration, and various luxurious high-tech equipment. Therefore, the price point is much higher than the price point of a regular car. Price is the basis for measuring luxury cars. Imported luxury cars, which are divided into European luxury cars, American luxury cars, and Japanese luxury cars.

Among them, the classic representative of Japanese luxury cars is Lexus. Since its inception in 1989, Lexus has become synonymous with "luxury". By providing the finest luxury cars and exceeding expectations, Lexus has become an international car brand that sells well all over the world. At present, Lexus's business has expanded to more than 50 countries and regions, including Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Oceania. Lexus's flagship model is LS600hL, as the world's first petrol-electric hybrid full-time four-wheel drive luxury flagship product, LS 600hL is equipped with Lexus's original petrol-electric hybrid system, which perfectly combines a 5.0-liter direct-injection V8 gasoline engine, a high-power electric motor and a large-capacity battery, with a comprehensive system power of up to 327 kilowatts, which is comparable to a 6.0-liter engine, while the fuel consumption is only equivalent to a 3.5-liter engine.

But Zhou Fangyuan doesn't like Japanese cars, and if he wants to buy a car this time, he will buy a cool and domineering supercar, he decided not to take a low-key style anymore, and get a supercar for himself anyway.
