Chapter 226: Test Drive
Ling Shizhe came to a test site located in the northwest corner of the industrial city, and just got off the car, Ling Shizhe couldn't help but be stunned!
A black elegant and domineering, feminine but not lacking masculine beauty of the black inverted three-wheeled motorcycle, is quietly lying at the gate of the test site!!
This! It is the collection motorcycle produced by our Ambrera Vehicle Transportation Equipment Manufacturing Company!
"Wow! It's so pretty!! Secretary Bai Lu exclaimed, she stayed in North America for a long time, she was originally not interested in mechanical things, since Ambrera merged with Bombardier, every day under the exposure of her ears, she also more or less knew some knowledge of vehicle machinery. [Popular remenxs. update fast, the website page is refreshing, there are few ads, no pop-ups, I like this kind of website the most, be sure to praise]
As Ling Shizhe's secretary, not to mention that he is used to seeing the luxury cars driven by rich people, and even luxury motorcycles in Europe, the United States, and Japan have seen a lot.
But now, how can she not be surprised to see such a motorcycle prototype car that is completely different from this era, full of elegance and sci-fi and fashion, and it is also a production car that her company will produce in the future?
Indeed, compared to the ugly big motorcycles that are currently running around on the streets of North America, this motorcycle full of elegant fashion and avant-garde colors is too visually impactful.
"Hehe, that's right, Alice, this is the car we will produce in the future, do you think it looks good?" Navali looked at the mouth open and could swallow a light bulb, and asked with a smile shouting Bai Lu's English name.
"Of course it's good-looking, honestly boss, I really can't believe that this car was designed by you!" Bai Lu ignored Navali and turned his head to look at Ling Shizhe and said happily.
Navali didn't feel the slightest bit unhappy because of Bai Lu's ignorance, but continued to ask, "So." Miss Alice, I ask you, if as a potential motorcycle buyer. Would you buy this car if it were to be launched on the market? ”
"Yes. Absolutely, to be honest, I'm a little impatient right now...... Mr. Navali, can you give me a ...... now" Bai Lu finally replied to Navali head-on.
Navali smiled, seeing Bai Lu looking at the motorcycle in front of him, his saliva was about to flow out of his obsessive demeanor, and he couldn't help the excitement in his heart Haha laughed, and said, "Boss." [There are almost all the books you want to read.,It's much more stable and updated faster than the general station.,There's no ads in the whole text.] The main consumer groups of motorcycles are those young people who love sports, you see even Miss Alice loves this motorcycle so much, I believe that all young people who love motorcycles, including those who do not love motorcycles, can not stop the charm of this car. ”
Ling Shizhe also laughed happily, yes, this Bombardier's inverted three-wheeled motorcycle is aimed at the young market in history, because only young people love fierce motorcycling, which can vent their exuberant adrenaline. The middle-aged and elderly have long passed the hormonal period of youth, so they are generally not particularly cold to motorcycling.
When I walked into the test site, I saw a group of technicians gathered together. Another inverted three-wheeled motorcycle is being assembled.
Ling Shizhe pointed to the black motorcycle that was being assembled and said, "Are these two installed?" ”
Navali replied: "There are more than two, we have produced more than a dozen, and except for these two, the rest have been taken to the test crew for road testing in all places." We plan to produce another 18 taels, and take them to Europe and Australia for road tests. ”
"What about Asia, aren't you going to test it?"
"Oh! Boss, you have to know that this is a high-end road motorcycle, not an off-road motorcycle. The roads in Asia are far from ideal, and the price of this motorcycle is too high for them. It's best to take a road test here, and there are plenty of bad roads in this proving ground. Enough is enough. Navali replied.
The inverted three-wheeled motorcycle is equipped with the latest GS air-cooled rectangular four-cylinder four-stroke symmetrical engine developed by Ambrera Company, with a displacement of 106PS/8500RPM and a maximum torque of 10.65kg-m/3500rpm, and is equipped with the world's first fully automatic dual-clutch transmission for motorcycles.
The market price of the marketing department is 32,000 Canadian dollars, which is the same as the selling price of BMW's motorcycles, so Navali did not take the Southeast Asian market into account, and many roads in those places are rotten, and it won't take long to drive, and the body will be scattered, unless there is more money to burn, otherwise no one will take such a good road motorcycle to drive on these roads.
"Damn, you even installed ABS+EBD brakes and front and rear brake linkage systems!" Ling Shizhe looked down at the disc brake disc in the tire and said in surprise.
"The separation lubrication system, the "PEI" non-contact ignition, the "SACS" system, the "SAEC" automatic exhaust system, the rectangular four-cylinder engine, the electronic fuel injection system, the ECU trip computer are controlled all the time," Navali said, "Boss, you took them out during the last meeting, and we put them on this car." Boss, we've been silent for too long, this time we're going to take a leap to the top! ”
Bombardier Motorcycles is a motorcycle brand with the same name as Harley-Davidson in the United States, which is one of the best in the world, and since the 60s began to decline, Bombardier Motorcycles began to fade out of people's sight, and the second generation is the rise of Japanese motorcycles.
Navali knew that if a company wanted to regain its life and regain the lost market, it must have a dazzling selling point, and the inverted three-wheeled motorcycle was full of modern and technological appearance, which fully met the requirements of his heart, so Navali used the new technology developed by the company on this motorcycle with almost no reservations, in order to achieve the goal of shocking the world and regain the lost market - he wanted to be the leader of the world's motorcycles.
Ling Shizhe understood his feelings, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry about Navali, we will regain the lost market." The key question now is, with so much advanced technology used on motorcycles, is its performance reliable enough? Navali you know, if not reliable. In the advanced things people will not accept. ”
"Yes, I understand the boss," Navali nodded. "So we're going to do road tests, a lot of road tests. Concentrate on all the problems and leak them, and then we will improve them one by one, rest assured boss, if it does not meet the requirements of complete reliability, I will never put it on the market. ”
"It's up to me to decide when to launch the market! Do you understand? Ling Shizhe said in an unquestionable tone, it was not that he didn't trust Navali, but he was afraid that he would be too impatient and not wait to solve all the problems. In a hurry, the inverted three wheels were pushed out of the market.
Even if the technical configuration on the inverted three-wheeled motorcycle is placed in the 21st century, there are many things that are quite advanced, not to mention in the 70s of the 20th century, the whole motorcycle is a new design from beginning to end, the new is the process, which completely subverts the current mainstream design concept of the motorcycle, so many high-tech used in it, there will definitely be all kinds of problems, if all the problems are not solved, not only will not achieve the goal of soaring, but will also become the laughing stock of the industry. This is not what Ling Shizhe wants to see.
"Understand the boss, I will definitely inform you in advance before the new car is released."
"Good. Remember, all technical problems must be solved, reliability and durability must be guaranteed, and if it can't be solved, it is better to reduce some new technology than to ensure its reliability. Ling Shizhe tirelessly admonished.
When Navali assured Ling Shizhe again, the technicians there also assembled the second inverted three-wheeled motorcycle.
After refueling the car, the test driver is doing the final inspection and preparing for the road test.
The proving ground is huge. It is 2 acres in size and has various barricades set up in it.
During this time when the tester does the final inspection. Ling Shizhe still said to Navali: "Let's produce ten more cars and pull them all to the bad roads of Southeast Asia." Since you want to take a road test, you just have to do enough work. ”
Navali glanced at Ling Shizhe with an expression of wanting to speak, then nodded and said, "Okay boss, I will arrange it, and I won't let you down." ”
That Valli's expression Ling Shizhe saw it all in his eyes, although what he said earlier had a certain amount of truth, but Ling Shizhe still decided to go his own way, why did he do this? This is learned from the Republic of Later generations, that is, no matter how advanced it is, it must be reliable, otherwise it is better not to use it!
Newly built cars, have to go to the road test stage, to put it bluntly, it is a hard exercise, where the road surface is not good, where to drive, where there are many bumpy slopes, but also to some extreme environmental experiments, such as to Egypt sandstorms in the desert area, but also to Nepal, Mexico, Ethiopia, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador and other countries over there the high altitude area, but also to those in the summer snow in the extremely cold environment to test the car.
In short, in order to understand the various situations encountered by the car in the shortest possible time, summarize them, and then solve them in a unified manner. This is the only way for every new car to be designed, formed, and listed, and if it is a new design of other cars, there will definitely be this or that problem, which we have to solve one by one.
But Ling Shizhe is not very worried, because this motorcycle is "designed" by him, and he knows better than anyone what the situation is, because the powertrain he designed is good, the chassis is good, and the body shape is good, but it has been tested by later generations, not only the manufacturer has tested it, but the users have also used it for many years, it looks very advanced, but it is a mature technical product.
On the contrary, what really worries him is that his three-wheeled Spider-Man model is too avant-garde for people in this era.
Don't look at Bai Lu's expression of love when he sees this motorcycle, but it's just a prototype car, it doesn't matter what it looks like, once it is actually put into mass production and starts to be sold in the market, whether people really like it or not, it will be immediately clear.
You must know that consumers in this era like the appearance of the more mediocre, atmospheric model appearance, the kind of post-modern minimalist design concept of the later generations, the difference is too far. (To be continued)
