别叫它 SUV:法拉利 Purosangue 深度评测
Ferrari’s two-seat sports cars might be the brand’s identity, but the Italian automaker has always catered to customers who want to bring more than one passenger along for the ride. It started building cars with back seats in the 1960s with the 250 GT 2+2; as the name suggests, the second row was more for occasional use, something that was true all the way through to the 612 in the early 2000s.
法拉利的双座跑车或许是该品牌的标志,但这家意大利汽车制造商一直以来也都在满足那些希望搭载多名乘客的客户需求。早在 20 世纪 60 年代,法拉利就开始生产带有后排座椅的车型,例如 250 GT 2+2;顾名思义,其第二排座椅更多是为偶尔使用而设计的,这一特点一直延续到 21 世纪初的 612 车型。
Ferrari followed with its first true four-seater, the all-wheel drive FF, which adopted “Breadvan” styling. Its first hatchback was still a three-door, though, and slightly more practical for carrying cargo rather than humans in the rear. That was true for the GTC4 that followed, too. But with the Purosangue, the rear passengers have been given something of an upgrade.
随后,法拉利推出了首款真正的四座车型——采用“面包车”(Breadvan)造型的全轮驱动 FF。不过,其首款掀背车仍为三门设计,后排空间在装载货物方面比搭载乘客更为实用。随后的 GTC4 也是如此。但到了 Purosangue,后排乘客的体验得到了显著升级。
For one thing, there is an extra pair of doors, rear-hinged ones that provide direct access to the pair of rear bucket seats. There’s still a rear hatch, so this is technically a five-door. But there’s an immovable firewall between the cargo area and the passenger cabin, and the rear seats do not fold flat. So unlike the 21st century breadvans we have previously reviewed, a Costco run in the Purosangue might be possible, but you’re probably going to want a roof rack if you plan to go skiing, cycling, or anything else that requires bulky equipment.
首先,它增加了一对后铰链式车门,可以直接进入后排的一对桶形座椅。它依然保留了后掀背,因此从技术上讲这是一款五门车型。但货舱与乘客舱之间有一道不可移动的防火墙,且后排座椅无法放平。因此,与我们之前评测过的 21 世纪“面包车”不同,开着 Purosangue 去 Costco 采购或许可行,但如果你打算去滑雪、骑行或进行任何需要携带大件装备的活动,你可能还是需要一个车顶行李架。
It’s also probably accurate that Ferrari says the Purosangue is not an SUV but an FUV—a Ferrari Utility Vehicle. Underneath that long hood lives a 6.5 L naturally aspirated V12, but mounted back in the chassis such that this is technically a front-mid engined layout. That contributes to the 49:51 front-to-rear weight ratio, as does the use of a transaxle gearbox for the rear wheels (an eight-speed, dual-clutch box); a separate power transfer unit at the front of the engine drives the front wheels, for this is an all-wheel drive Ferrari.
法拉利称 Purosangue 不是 SUV,而是 FUV(Ferrari Utility Vehicle,法拉利多功能车),这或许是准确的。在那长长的引擎盖下,搭载了一台 6.5 升自然吸气 V12 发动机,但其安装位置靠后,因此从技术上讲,这是一种前中置引擎布局。这有助于实现 49:51 的前后重量分配,后轮采用的驱动桥变速箱(八速双离合变速箱)也起到了同样的作用;发动机前端的一个独立动力传输单元负责驱动前轮,因为这是一辆全轮驱动的法拉利。
But make no mistake, it’s a substantial one, too, befitting that massive 715 hp (533 kW), 528 lb-ft (716 Nm) engine: 195.8 inches (4,973 mm) long, 79.8 inches (2,028 mm) wide, 62.6 inches (1,589 mm) tall, with a 118.1-inch (3,018 mm) wheelbase and a 4,784 lbs (2,170 kg) curb weight. The usability is high with this one.
但别搞错了,它也是一个大家伙,足以匹配那台拥有 715 马力(533 kW)和 528 磅-英尺(716 Nm)扭矩的强劲引擎:车长 195.8 英寸(4,973 毫米),宽 79.8 英寸(2,028 毫米),高 62.6 英寸(1,589 毫米),轴距为 118.1 英寸(3,018 毫米),整备质量为 4,784 磅(2,170 公斤)。这款车的实用性非常高。
Despite that size, it doesn’t take very long for the car to shrink around the driver; earlier this summer, I spent a couple of hours driving another Purosangue around Rome on the eve of Ferrari’s Luce reveal, where it coped quite ably with millennia-old streets. It’s an easy car to drive slowly or in traffic despite its size and power output.
尽管体型庞大,但驾驶者很快就能适应并驾驭它;今年夏天早些时候,在法拉利 Luce 发布会前夕,我曾在罗马驾驶过另一辆 Purosangue,它在千年古城的街道上表现得游刃有余。尽管尺寸和动力输出惊人,但它在低速行驶或交通拥堵时依然非常容易驾驶。
The stop-start system works even from cold and is unobtrusive, and your speed is easy to modulate thanks to plenty of pedal travel for the throttle and an engine with sufficient torque that you’ll rarely see more than 2,000 rpm on the digital tachometer if you’re in Comfort mode and letting the eight-speed transmission shift for itself. Which is something, considering the fact that the engine doesn’t redline until 8,250 rpm.
启停系统即使在冷启动时也能正常工作且不显突兀。由于油门踏板行程充足,加上发动机扭矩充沛,如果你处于舒适模式并让八速变速箱自动换挡,数字转速表上的读数很少会超过 2,000 转。考虑到这台发动机直到 8,250 转才达到红线,这一点确实难能可贵。
You’ll probably want to be in Sport to experience that; it’s the most extreme of the Purosangue’s settings, for you won’t find a Race mode on the steering wheel-mounted manettino dial that toggles through drive modes, although you will find one for Ice instead. Regardless of the mode, you can choose to change gears for yourself using the large and tactile paddle shifters, either to temporarily override the auto function or in true manual mode, selectable via a switch on the center console, where you’ll also find reverse.
你可能需要切换到运动模式才能体验到它的极限;这是 Purosangue 最激进的设置,因为你在方向盘上的 Manettino 驾驶模式旋钮上找不到“赛道模式”(Race mode),但你会发现一个“冰雪模式”(Ice mode)。无论处于何种模式,你都可以使用触感极佳的大型换挡拨片手动换挡,既可以暂时覆盖自动功能,也可以通过中控台上的开关切换到真正的手动模式,倒车挡也位于此处。
The steering is heavier than something like a 296 but still feels very direct, with good feedback of the road conditions as the front wheels are experiencing them. In Sport, you can feel the chassis control systems and the electronic differentials doing their thing to tighten your line if you’re steering and adding power at the same time. And because there are four seats, you can share the experience with three passengers: The squeals of delight from happy young neighbors getting their first ride in a Ferrari were a real high point of our time with the car.
转向手感比 296 等车型更沉,但依然非常直接,能很好地反馈前轮所感受到的路况。在运动模式下,当你同时转向并加速时,你能感觉到底盘控制系统和电子差速器在努力收紧你的行车路线。而且因为它有四个座位,你可以与三名乘客分享这种体验:邻居家的孩子们第一次坐上法拉利时发出的欢呼声,是我们驾驶这辆车期间真正的高光时刻。
