ʻO Toyota Highlander ka hoʻokolohua hoʻokolohua
Ma loko o ʻelima mau makahiki mai 2007 a 2012, ma kahi o 100 Toyota Highlander i kūʻai ʻia ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i kēlā me kēia makahiki, ʻo ia hoʻi, ma kahi o 000 mau pūnaewele i kēlā me kēia mahina. I Rūsia, ʻaʻole makemake nui ka SUV Kepanī i ka noi, akā koi pū ʻia ia: i ka makahiki 10 i ka lua o kāna wahi (000 mau kaʻa i kūʻai ʻia aku). Ua hoʻohālikelike mākou i kā mākou mau manaʻo o ka Highlander a hoʻāʻo e ʻike i nā kumu no kona kaulana. ʻO kekahi o lākou ma ka maoli - nani maoli ʻo ia.
"Pensioner" - i kapa ʻia kekahi mau hoa hana ʻo Highlander ma mua o kona ʻike ʻana me mākou no kahi hoʻokolohua lōʻihi. A ma hope o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka mana huila mua 188-horsepower a ʻo wau ka mea mua i kaʻa, ʻo ia kā lākou i kapa mai iaʻu. Eia - ka ʻokoʻa o ka noʻonoʻo. Ma ʻAmelika, ma ke ala, ua hoʻolālā ʻia ʻo SpongeBob e huki i ka nānā ʻana i ke kumu hoʻohālike, ke ola o nā poʻe kahiko, inā ʻike lākou, mai kā lākou moʻopuna wale nō.

ʻO ka mea huna o kēia kaʻa ʻo ia ka mea e hoʻopio mālie, i kēlā me kēia lā. Hoʻihoʻi ʻoe iā ia a ʻike ʻoe i loko o ke kaʻa āu i neʻe ai, ʻaʻole ʻoi aku ka hapalua o ka nui o ke kikowaena lima e like me ka SUV Kepanī - ma ʻaneʻi, me he mea lā, hiki iā ia ke ale maʻalahi i kahi ʻeke mākaʻikaʻi.

A i ʻole e ʻike koke ʻoe no ka iwakālua minuke ʻoe e hoʻāʻo nei e pelu i ka lālani ʻekolu o nā noho ma kahi kaʻa hoʻāʻo hou, ʻoiai ma ka Highlander ua lawe ʻia kēia kaʻina hana i kekahi mau kekona: kahi huki ma ʻaneʻi, kahi nudge liʻiliʻi ma laila, a ua pau ʻoe. . Eia kekahi, ʻoiai nā kiʻi kahiko, ʻohi ka ʻōnaehana multimedia i ka ʻike i loaʻa ʻole ma nā kaʻa ʻē aʻe. No ka laʻana, he moʻolelo hoʻohana wahie no nā huakaʻi ʻelima hope loa, ka pakuhi o kona hoʻololi ʻana i nā minuke 15 i hala, a pēlā aku.
Ma ka laulā, inā e noi ʻia wau e wehewehe iā ia i hoʻokahi huaʻōlelo, e pane wau me ka kānalua ʻole: "Kūpono". A pili kēia i kēlā me kēia mea liʻiliʻi, kēlā me kēia hiʻohiʻona.

Nā Kūlana
Hoʻokumu ʻia ke kolu o ka hanauna Highlander ma ka paepae kīʻaha o ka Toyota Camry sedan (like ka wheelbase no nā kaʻa - 2790 mm). Eia nō naʻe, ʻokoʻa ke kāʻei hope ma aneʻi: ʻaʻole ʻo McPherson, e like me Camry, akā he loulou nunui, e like me ka hanauna o Lexus RX. Mai ka mīkini like i loaʻa i ka mana hoʻokele huila āpau o ka Highlander a me ka paʻa paʻa pā JTEKT, kahi e hoʻopili ai i ke koʻi hope ke paheʻe ke koʻi mua a hiki ke hoʻouna i 50% o ka ikehu iā ia. ʻO nā Crossovers no Rūsia, ma ke ala, he kau iki ʻoi aku ka palupalu ma mua o kā lākou mau hoa i United States.
ʻO ke kaʻa i loaʻa iā mākou ma ka hoʻāʻo ua lako me kahi ʻenekini petrolna 2,7-lita me 188 hp. me ka mea i hoʻoiho nui ʻia o 252 mau mika Newton. ʻO ka ʻenekini 1AR-FE me kahi poloka alloy ʻike nui ʻia e nā ipo Toyota mai nā hiʻohiʻona Venza a me ka Highlander like o ka hanauna i hala. Eia hou, ua kau ʻia ma ka mana ʻoi loa o ka Lexus RX - RX 270. Ma ka Highlander, hui pū ʻia ka mana me kahi "ʻeono" wikiwiki ʻeono. Hiki i 100 km / h SUV ke kaupaona 1 kg, hoʻonui ke k modelkohu i ka 880 kekona a hiki ke kiʻi i ka wikiwiki o 10,3 km i kēlā me kēia hola.
ʻO ka mana kiʻekiʻe o ka Highlander ma Lūkia ua lako me kahi 3,5-liter V6 me ka hiki o 249 horsepower. ʻO ia kaʻa e holo wikiwiki i 100 km / h ma 8,7 kekona. ʻO ka wikiwiki nui e like ia me ka mea i emi o ka ikaika - 180 kilomita i kēlā me kēia hola. ʻO ka motika like i ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa kahi hoʻi nui: 273 horsepower. ʻOi loa no Rūsia, i mea e hōʻemi ai i ka nui o ka ʻauhau, ua kāpae ʻia ka ʻenekini.
Manaʻo kekahi ʻaʻole kiʻekiʻe brutland ʻo Highlander. Iaʻu, ʻo ka SUV Kepani ke ʻano o kahi kaʻa kūlike loa. No ka hoʻāʻo, ua loaʻa mākou i kahi wili mua ʻeleʻele poʻokela Highlander me kahi ʻili beige o loko a me kahi ʻenekini ʻehā-ʻelima 2,7-lita. Hoʻohui kēia kala i ka hanohano iā ia, e noho ʻeleʻele ka Land Cruiser.
ʻO nā mea nui o ka Highlander a me kahi kaumaha ma lalo o ʻelua mau tonona e ʻae iā ʻoe e hilinaʻi i ke ala, ʻoiai ʻaʻole e ʻeha ka manuahi o ke kaʻa i nā ʻoiaʻiʻo o ke kūlanakauhale. He wehe ʻāʻī koʻikoʻi ka Highlander no kahi kaʻa ʻohana, akā ua hauʻoli wau i kēia mau hoʻonohonoho ma ke ʻano he kalaiwa a me kahi mea holo. Ma ke ʻano nui, pūʻiwa ke kaʻa me ka maʻalahi o ka kaohi: ʻoluʻolu ia e hoʻonui iā ia, hiki ke wānana ʻia i ka paleki.
Ua makemake au i ka hale o Highlander - ʻaʻohe frills a me nā bele a me nā pupuhi, maʻalahi a maopopo nā mea āpau. E kapa nō wau i kaila. I kekahi mau hoʻonā hoʻolālā kūloko, pili ka nānā i ka mea kūʻai ʻAmelika: nā pihi nui, nā noho ākea, kahi papa lōʻihi ma ka papa kuhikuhi. He paʻakikī hoʻi e noʻonoʻo i ka nui o nā nonsense hiki ke kau ʻia ma laila. Nui wale ka pahu, a he ʻAmelika nō hoʻi kēlā. I ka wā aʻu i hana ai ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ma ke ʻano he haumāna, ʻike pinepine wau i nā kamaʻāina e hoʻopiha ana i nā pahu o kā lākou SUV me nā ʻeke o nā supermarket. Ke hele nei i kahi huakaʻi hopena pule pōkole, halihali lākou me lākou i nā puʻupuʻu o nā mea, ʻo kekahi o lākou e waiho i loko o ke kaʻa ma hope o ka huakaʻi. Inā he makuahine wau no nā keiki he nui, ʻoliʻoli wau me ka pahu Highlander: kahi kaʻa kaʻa, kahi kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa keiki a nā keiki, kahi scooter a me kahi ʻeke o nā mea pāʻani e hiki ke komo maʻaneʻi. ʻO ke kūlana, ʻoiaʻiʻo, e loli nui inā hoʻonui ʻia ka lālani o nā noho ʻekolu. Akā i ka mōhai ʻana i nā wahi ukana, hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa i nā noho piha no nā mea kaʻa.
Noʻu, ʻo Toyota Highlander ka kaʻa ʻohana kūpono loa: palekana, lumi, ʻoluʻolu. He ʻoluʻolu ke hoʻokele iā ʻoe iho a hāʻawi paha i kāu kāne e hoʻokele, noho ʻoluʻolu ma kahi kokoke. A no ka hoʻokele ʻana ma ke kūlanakauhale, e lawa paha kēia hoʻonohonoho. Akā inā e ho'āʻo nā hoʻolālā i ka Highlander ma nā kūlana o ke alanui, a laila, ʻoiaʻiʻo, pono ke uku hou aku no nā kaʻa huila āpau a me kahi mīkini ʻoi aku ka ikaika. E hoʻonui iki i ka hauʻoli i ka hoʻokele ʻana i ka Highlander. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, ʻoiai ma kahi kaʻa ʻohana harmonious, i kekahi manawa makemake ʻoe e naʻaupō iki.

No ka manawa mua, ua hōʻike ʻia ka Toyota Highlander (i Iāpana a me ʻAukekulia, ke kumu hoʻohālikelike ʻia ʻo Kluger) ma ka New York Auto Show ma ʻApelila 2000. I ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo ia ka Highlander i lilo i SUV waena waena nui mua. A hiki i ka makahiki 2006, kēia k modelkohu kikoʻī ʻo ia ka SUV kūʻai aku maikaʻi loa a Toyota (ua hāʻawi ʻia ke kiʻi i kēia poʻo inoa iā Rav4).
I ka hele ʻana, ʻaʻole i hōʻeha ʻia ka Highlander. A moderately kaumaha informative hoʻokele huila, ka liʻiliʻi loa o ka longitudinal vibrations a me ka oluolu loa hoʻomaha hoʻomaha - Toyota lulls oe e hiamoe wale ma kahi e pau ai ke ala nui a me ka mea a mākou i kapa ai "ke alanui mai dacha a dacha" hoomaka. Holo wikiwiki ʻoe i nā lua a pau me ka nānā ʻole ʻana i hope - hānai ʻo Highlander i ka wiwo ʻole ʻaʻole wale i ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka pae ʻana o ke alakaʻi, akā ʻo ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana. "Bang, boom" - he "kiti kaʻa kaʻa" e lele ana a puni ka pahu, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻo Velcro. ʻO nā huila a me ka plastic i loko o ke keʻena, ʻaʻohe liʻiliʻi: ʻaʻohe kīkī a ʻaʻohe squeaks. Wehe i ka hoʻomaha? ʻAe, he ʻakaʻaka ʻoe!
He minamina ʻaʻole mākou i hoʻokele i ka huakaʻi hele a puni ka hau ʻo Moscow - i ke kau hewa ua lawe mākou i ka Highlander no kahi hoʻāʻo lōʻihi. No laila ʻaʻole hiki ke kāpae i ka kaʻao i ka ʻaʻohe leʻaleʻa leʻaleʻa ma mua o nā crossovers mono-drive i nā kūlana hakakā. Akā i kēlā me kēia hihia, ʻaʻole wau i ʻike i kēlā mau dachas ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻEulopa o Lūkia, i hiki ai i kekahi ke kiʻi iā lākou i kahi UAZ Patriot a i ʻole Land Rover Defender. No laila makemake wau ʻaʻole e hoʻolohe i kēia mau kamaʻilio āpau e pili ana i ka makehewa o nā keʻa huila nui o mua.
I ka makahiki 2007, ua hōʻike ʻia ka lua o ka hanauna o ke kaʻa ma ka Hōʻikeʻike Hōʻikeʻike ʻo Chicago, kahi i kūʻai mua ʻia ai me ʻenekini ʻeono-ʻenekini me ka hiki o 280 hp, kahi mana me kahi anakahi ʻehā-ʻāpana haʻahaʻa (ʻo ia ka mua Ua wehe ʻia ʻo Higlander) mai ka laina, akā ua hōʻike hou ʻia ma 2009. Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ka hana o ka SUV hanauna ʻelua ma Iapana wale nō, akā ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me Kina hoʻi. Mai 2007 a 2012, ua kūʻai aku ma mua o 500 Highlander i ka United States.
ʻO ka mea hope loa, ua hōʻike ʻia ke kolu a me ka hanauna hope o ke kaʻa ma 2013 ma ka hōʻike auto i New York. Ua hoʻonui nui ʻia ke k modelkohu i ka nui (+ 70mm a i ka lōʻihi, + 15,2mm i ka laulā). Ma USA, ʻo Highlander, i hoʻohui ʻia o nā ʻenekini like i loaʻa i Rūsia, hiki ke kūʻai ʻia me kahi mea kanu mana hapalua.
ʻAʻole hiki i ka poʻe i hana i ka Land Cruiser ke poina pehea e hana ai i nā SUV nui. ʻO Toyota, ka hui nāna i hoʻokumu i ka mana maikaʻi, i hana i kahi kaʻa maikaʻi loa me ka luhi ʻole. E kūkulu i ka maikaʻi, ke kaulike, ka manaʻo hoʻokele, ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i ke pihi noʻonoʻo, ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mea hoʻohana a me nā ʻāpana ʻokoʻa, a, ʻoi paha ka wai i ka mākeke lua - ua manaʻo ʻia kēia mau mea. ʻO ka hōʻailona kūpono no ka mea hoʻokele noʻonoʻo kūpono i kekahi manawa pono e lawe i nā ʻōpala he nui a me nā poʻe he nui.
No kēlā poʻe i manaʻo he nani kēia Highlander e lilo i Lexus, ʻo ia nō. Hoʻohālikelike nā hiʻohiʻona i ka Lexus RX, akā, i koʻu manaʻo, ʻoi aku ka "ʻona" o ka Highlander ma mua o ka hanauna o RX i kēia manawa.
ʻO kaʻaoʻao pouli o kēia k modelkohu ka inoa. Highlander (unuhi ʻia mai ka ʻōlelo Pelekania) no ka hapanui o nā Lūkini o kekahi mau makahiki he kiʻi ʻoniʻoni a me nā kīwī mai nā makahiki 1980 kahi i make ai kahi heluna nui o nā poʻe. Eia hou, ua like ʻo Highlander me he inoa lā i hāʻawi ʻia aku i nā mākeke nui ʻo Scotch. Kūʻai kēia mau whiskey, ʻono weliweli, a hana i ka hana a lākou i hana ʻia ai, me ka ʻole o ka lokomaikaʻi a nani ʻole.
ʻO ka hemahema nui o ka Highlander ka holo. Heʻoiaʻiʻo loa kēia no nā kihi: ʻo ka Highlander kahi SUV maʻamau ʻaneʻi. Kūleʻa ʻo ia e like me ke keiki momona e kau ana i nā stilettos a Māmā, a hāʻawi kēia i nā ʻano ʻoluʻolu ʻole i ka ʻōpū. Eia nō naʻe, inā ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻohana i kāu kaʻa e ʻohi i nā keiki a nā poʻe ʻē aʻe mai ka pāʻina, a mālama mau ʻoe iā ʻoe i ka piluna kai ma mua o ke kau ʻana, he koho maikaʻi loa kēia. Ma ke ala, inā kūʻē ʻoe i ka hānai ʻana i kāu poʻe keiki i kekahi ʻano kemika, koho i kahi o loko o ʻehā aniani o ka hina: e hoʻomaʻemaʻe kahi mea holoi maloʻo iā ʻoe e ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kēia me nā keiki.
