Chapter 350: 350 new cars
Chapter 350 350 New Cars
With the development of Datang Group, the world is actually slowly, bit by bit, beginning its own industrial revolution in the true sense.
The labor-intensive handicraft workshops are gradually being eliminated, and the collapsed industries are being reintegrated mechanically, and greater power has exploded.
Due to the serious shortage of production capacity, both Datang Group and Cyric Consortium have started a new round of industrial adjustment and layout.
In order to ensure that it continues to increase its production capacity in the manufacturing of professional vehicles such as trucks, Datang Group launched a new car to replace the Model T car - People's Automobile.
The redesigned shell of People's Automobile makes its appearance more avant-garde. The style of this car is close to the streamlined sedan of around 1920s, and it looks very handsome. Moreover, this car has indeed made some improvements, and the improvements are not small.
However, these improvements compared to the reduction in engine performance still make many people who buy cars very dissatisfied.
Although the engines used in the previous cars were very technological, the engines used this time are even more technologically advanced and even more sophisticated.
Consumers sitting in the "4S" stores that sell cars are a little dissatisfied with this new model of cars.
A man in a crisp suit squeezed in front of the counter and yelled at the car attendant: "What are you doing! Is it so simple?"
"The new People's Car is really terrible. I heard that the engine is a two-stroke and the sound is three times louder than before." Next to him, another Bunas citizen who came to buy a car was also very excited. He was waiting for the new model. The car has been waiting for a long time.
The previous advertisement said that the new car only cost 68 gold coins, which was 2 gold coins cheaper than the old model. This greatly stimulated the common people who had not yet had time to buy a car.
Many people are waiting for today to buy a family car of their own.
In other words, apart from Bunas, there are not many cities that can have so many gas stations and support so many cars.
There are more than 20,000 cars in the whole of Bunas, and this number is still growing, and there seems to be no end at all.
Many people are concerned that without gasoline and electricity, this huge city with a population of more than one million may collapse within a day.
But this is already a great progress in world civilization, because in the past, if the population exceeded one million, the city would face problems such as plague and would not be able to continue to develop and grow.
Nowadays, although the population of Bunas has exceeded one million, it is still developing rapidly. I have to say that this is already a miracle.
“Sigh... Forget it, the previous engine wasn’t that good, but this time, the engine noise problem is really serious.” A so-called car expert said depressingly, waving the configuration sheet in his hand.
This type of advertising flyer is a vehicle configuration description published by car dealers for easy comparison.
It states how much the optional items will cost, how many colors are available, and what the improvements are compared to the old car.
“However, is it too arbitrary to just look at the engine? I heard that in order to reduce the noise, a lot of sound insulation cotton was stuffed in the engine compartment..." A man next to him who wanted to buy a car explained in a low voice.
The so-called car-savvy guy immediately retorted: "What do you know... That thing is just a decoration. If you really drive it, the noise will be twice as loud as before!"
“There are still tremors, it must be severe!” Someone on the side immediately added, looking like they wouldn’t buy it even if they beat me to death.
Many people shouted in agreement: "Yes! There is also the problem of trembling!"
“But the new car is so good-looking! It looks very high-end at first glance.”
The man who was actually ready to buy a car today continued to murmur: "It's true... but, this appearance looks much more pleasing to the eye."
his words also attracted the approval of a group of people: "If the engine is not so rubbish, this must be a very good car."
To be honest, the appearance of this new car is really good-looking, and it looks more luxurious than the previous Model T car.
It looks more high-end and classy, but the price is cheaper, which is undoubtedly very attractive to the working class.
Those rich people who bought cars before paid more money, but the cars they got were not as beautiful as the new cars in front of them. This makes many users who are now planning to buy new cars feel very good.
In fact, a new car only costs less than 70 gold coins, and many people in Bunas can afford it. And it is indeed very attractive. It looks more streamlined and better-looking than previous cars, and it can be considered a great value for money. In fact, many families do not necessarily pursue the so-called performance when buying a car. They care about a variety of things, and more often, they consider practicality and aesthetics.
After all, no matter how good the acceleration performance of a car is, after a family buys the car, they will not drive it through five straight hairpin corners and have a rally with the roaring engine.
You say you are driving in a traffic jam on Wencui Street. There is a Bentley in front of you, an Alfa Romeo in the back, a Mercedes-Benz S600 on the left and a Wuling Hongguang on the right. What difference does it make if your car has a 2.8T turbo or a 1.6 naturally aspirated car?
What's more, in Bunas now, there are only several cars with almost the same performance produced by one company on the streets. Who can be better than others?
You are a two-stroke engine, aren’t others also two-stroke engines? Except for the high-end Rolls-Royce specially prepared for the super rich, everyone is on the same level...
“Who says it’s not...” When the design of this car is mentioned, some people’s attitudes have changed.
These days, appearance is still very convincing. For a good-looking person, whether it is a car or a woman, there will be a market, and it is a big market.
“The wheels are also very good.” A woman next to her looked at the shiny mirror-like disc hub and said with satisfaction.
"Yeah, I heard that the shock absorbers have been redesigned, and it's very comfortable to drive..." The car-savvy emperor also softened this time. He had just experienced the shock absorbers of this car, and it was really indescribable. The ultimate experience.
ˆThe new car adopts softer shock-absorbing tuning, specifically designed for highways and urban roads. This kind of shock absorption adjustment allows the car to reduce bumps when driving. When you sit on it, you can feel the up and down elasticity, which is super comfortable.
This sense of luxury is also the reason why many people get carsick. In fact, until around 2010, there were still many people in China who got carsick, and they were particularly good at carsickness. The big reason was because of the chassis tuning.
In addition, the car designers of Datang Group have indeed used a lot of technological innovations for this new car, and it is indeed much more advanced than previous cars.
As far as tires are concerned, there are more than a few innovations - before, due to problems with rubber production and price, the tire belts of Model T cars were very narrow and very small, which made it impossible to use better shock absorption methods.
Now, the islands and ports in the southern part of the Endless Sea are all under the control of Datang Group. Rubber production capacity has increased dramatically, shipping capacity has also increased, and rubber prices have naturally dropped a lot.
Under such a general premise, Datang Group has reduced costs and increased production capacity in the manufacturing of automobile tires.
Car tires can be made larger and wider due to the lower price of rubber, which also increases the comfort of the car.
Furthermore, friends who own cars know that the larger the wheels, the more majestic and majestic the vehicle will look. Therefore, wheels that are larger than those of a T-type car really make the new car look more beautiful.
It’s just that because of the stretched engine, the new car’s acceleration from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers exceeds 20 seconds. The acceleration performance is **** and the acceleration performance is average.
In order to further reduce costs, new cars still use gravity fuel tanks. Gasoline enters the engine through natural gravity. Therefore, fuel supply problems may occur when the fuel volume is extremely low when going uphill or downhill.
In short, this is actually a kind of crazy cost reduction, which can only be called a "motorcycle with a shed", a civilian car with obvious symbols of the times.
The reason why it was designed in this way was to allow the original engine production workshop of the Model T car to be switched to the production of more important truck engines.
In this era, there is so much need for trucks, both for the military and for local transportation. There is a demand gap for trucks everywhere.
You must know that every city is undergoing modernization now, and having a transport vehicle that hardly needs a rest is crucial for any city.
Where to buy trucks, they often purchase a series of other items directly from Datang Group, and then directly load them into the truck and transport them away.
For example, in an area where the plague is rampant, 10 trucks will be purchased, filled with medicines, and driven away. For another example, when they are waiting for arms, they will directly purchase a car, pull a 75mm field gun, fill the car with ammunition and drive back directly.
The produced trucks were filled with flatbed transport carriages of the train, then covered with canvas, and drove directly to Yucheng.
Similarly, such trucks are also constantly transporting to Dorne, Sussus, and even to the Ice Kingdom, to the Poplar Kingdom and the Pine Kingdom.
"Are you going to buy it or not? If you don't want to buy it, give in!" Finally, the sales girl couldn't bear it anymore and let out a roar from the crowd.
"Hey, let me tell you...what's your attitude..." The Emperor understands his face. He couldn't keep it in his face, and he was about to speak in anger.
Behind him, a rich fat man waved banknotes and couldn't wait to say: "I want to buy two cars! Two cars! If you don't buy them, get out of the way! What kind of man is he who bullies other girls?"
