德国大众新高尔夫GTI被英国《BBC顶级汽车》杂志评为2005年度汽车。昨晚在英国伦敦Groucho俱乐部,英国知名电视节目主持人、最畅销杂志作者杰瑞米.克拉克森,为德国大众董事会主席伯恩德博士颁发了奖项。
Volkswagen’s new Golf GTI has been crowned Car of the Year 2005 by BBC Top Gear. At a prestigious ceremony held at The Groucho Club in London last night, Jeremy Clarkson, who both hosts the popular television show and writes for the top-selling magazine, presented the award to Dr Bernd Pischetsrieder, Chairman of the Board of Management, Volkswagen AG.
该奖项既代表了《BBC2顶级汽车杂志》和英国收视率最高的汽车节目所有人员的观点,同时也代表了《BBC顶级汽车杂志》专业试驾人员的观点。该杂志是英国最畅销月刊。
The awards represent the views of both the team on BBC 2’s Top Gear, the UK’s most watched motoring programme, and expert road testers at BBC Top Gear magazine, the country’s most popular motoring monthly.
(高尔夫)新GTI是经过激烈的竞争后,才荣登年度汽车榜首。克拉克森在为《顶级汽车》杂志撰写该奖项稿时,特别对新涡轮增压FSI发动机赞不绝口,认为“该2.0升引擎有可能是最值得称誉的。即使你未能及时换档,速度也没有任何滞后,扭矩也会源源不断输出”。他高度赞美该车的处理、操控、和实用性,认为该车设计独特、精细且有品位。
The new GTI fought off tough competition to come out on top as Car of the Year. Clarkson, writing in the awards issue of Top Gear, was particularly impressed with the new turbocharged FSI powerplant: ‘The 2.0-litre engine is probably the strongest link of what’s a fairly unburstable chain. There’s no lag at all and even if you can’t be bothered to change gear, there’s always a bagful of torque on hand.’ He was also highly complimentary about the handling, steering, practicality and distinctive, yet subtle, styling.
克拉克森还赞美道:“简单的事实就是,无论你怎么品头论足,这款高尔夫在任何一个地方都是完美的,或者说是卓越的。它速度快,操控性好,停车方便,行驶方便,无论在任何社交场所都能被接受,从头到脚让人感到舒适”。高尔夫新GTI登上冠军奖台是个小小的奇迹。
‘The simple fact of the matter then is that no matter how you cut it, the Golf is either brilliant or excellent in every single area. It’s fast, it handles well, it’s easy to park, easy to run, socially acceptable anywhere, comfortable and well made to boot,’ Clarkson continued. Small wonder, then, that the new GTI took the winner’s place on the podium.
新款高尔夫GTI凭借各媒体炽热的评论和不计其数的团体测试胜利,令众多汽车专家们欢天喜地,翘首期盼着一月份在英国上市。
The new Golf GTI has received a rapturous reception from motoring experts in the run up to its UK launch in January, with glowing reviews and numerous group test victories.
在总结为什么GTI获此殊荣时,克拉克森写道:“该款高尔夫是绝对的激情”。
In summing up the reasons why the GTI took the coveted award, Clarkson wrote: ‘This new Golf is an absolute sensation.’
新款高尔夫GTI2.0升FSI涡轮增压直喷汽油发动机,最大输出功率200马力,在1800到5100转时最大扭矩达到280牛米(经换算)。除了具有良好卓越的操控性能,GTI的转速指针能轻易到达(速度表)红色区域,发出澎湃的动力,表现积极活跃。
The 2.0-litre FSI 200 PS engine uses homogenous direct injection and turbocharging to achieve highly flexible power delivery – peak torque of 207 lbs ft is produced between 1,800 and 5,100 rpm. Yet despite this tractable quality, the new GTI is still exciting to take to the red line, where it produces lively performance.
GTI价格从三门手排档的19995英镑(基本上路配置),到五门配备大众高级DSG变速箱的21820英镑。
Prices for the GTI start at £19,995 (RRP on the road), for the three-door with manual gearbox, rising to £21,820 for the five-door version with Volkswagen’s revolutionary DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) transmission.
