Fifth Gear Recharged S01E03

Part 5 Aug. 1, 2023, 11:38 a.m.

I'm packing my water wings for this one
因为那些沉重的电池
because those heavy batteries
会让电动版卫士下沉
are going to weigh the electric defender down
更容易被困在沼泽水中
and they could easily get stuck in the boggy water.
但你有所不知，吉米
But what you don't know, Jimmy,
这辆车的重量和你的差不多
is that this car weighs more or less the same as yours
一千九百公斤
at 1900 Kilogrammes.
我想这会是一个好主意吗？
I'm thinking that in no way is this a good idea?
电和水是不相容的
Electricity and water don't mix.
听着，这辆车到处都是密封的
Look. Okay. Everything here is sealed.
电池、马达、线路全部密封
The battery, the motor, the wiring all sealed.
所以你是说这辆车可能和我的卫士一样重？
So you're saying this could weigh as well as my defender?
嗯，我要说的是它的重量好太多太多了
Hmm, I'm going to say that this can weigh far, far better.
你也可以称它为潜艇
You might as well call it a submarine.
我是说，我想你是对的
I mean, I suppose you're correct.
我的车辆有一个需要空气才能运作的内燃机
My vehicle has a combustion engine that needs air to work.
而这辆车没有
This doesn't.
它不需要任何空气唯一需要空气的只有我和你
It doesn't need any air. The only thing that needs air is me and you.
是的，这倒是
Yeah, that's true.
浮潜车要出发了吗？
Snorkel kit on - shall we?
走吧
Do let's.
那么你有什么计划？
So what's your approach?
向前冲就对了
Hit it, Hit it.
继续前进
Go on then.
我很怀疑…
When in doubt...
水会喷进来，是吗？
It can get wet, can't it?
啊，脚踏垫都是水
Aah it's all coming in the footwell.
你看看！
Look at that!
简直一团糟！
That is a boggy mess!
你刚刚把它变成了一艘船
You've just turned this into a ship.
哦，这味道可真重
Oh and it's a smelly one at that.
不过那还是挺令人佩服的
That was impressive though.
尽管门密封条漏水
Despite the leaky door seals,
但我的电动车肯定是水上挑战赛的赢家
my EV has to be the water Challenge winner
因为不像吉米的柴油车需要空气来推动
because unlike Jimmy's Diesel that needs air to breathe,
电动车理论上可以完全在水底下
the EV can, in theory be totally submersed.
看来你对水池造景很有研究嘛？
You know how to hit a water feature, don't you?
谢谢你
Thank you.
这使它成为了我们越野挑战中的一员
And that makes it one all in our off road challenge.
接下来，我们将揭晓
Join us later for the decider
终极越野测试的决胜者
with the ultimate off road test
随着我们挑战这个出奇坚韧又四散的凸石路
as we tackle this incredibly tough rock strewn assent.
我的呼吸开始变得像要分娩一样了这就对了
When I start breathing like I'm going to give birth. That's it.
我开始这么做了！
Which I'm beginning to do!
我们喜欢《电车志》中的掀背小轿车
We love hot hatches on Fifth Gear,
既实用、又实惠
something that's practical, affordable,
并且有合理的性能可以让你脸上露出灿烂的笑容
and with proper performance that can put a huge grin on your face.
唯一的问题是
The only problem is
目前还没有人制♥造♥过电动掀背小轿车
at the moment no one has made an electric hothead yet.
哦，看来有人做出来了
Oh, someone has.
我来到西班牙南部是为了大饱眼福
I've come to Southern Spain to feast my eyes on this.
谷巴“新生”
The CUPRA Born,
世界上第一辆掀背小轿车
the world's first EV hot hatch.
至少大家是这么认为的
So they say.
谷巴曾经是西雅特旗下的子品牌
CUPRA used to be the performance wing of Seat,
但现在它们作为独♥立♥的制♥造♥商
but now they exist as a standalone manufacturer.
不同版本的“新生” 带有不同尺寸的电池组
There are a few versions of the Born with different sized battery packs.
但你知道我对什么感兴趣吗？
But you know what I'm interested in?
最强大的那一辆
The most powerful one.
它配备了58千瓦小时电池组
It's got a 58 kwh battery pack,
可产生231匹马力
which produces 231 HP
时速0到62英里的时间为6.6秒
and a zero to 62 time of 6.6 seconds
价格低于四万英镑
and the price a shade under 40 grand,
与大众Golf R大致相同
about the same as a VW Golf R.
谷巴说，如果你善待它
CUPRA say that if you treat it nicely,
这块电池中可以让你跑上260英里
you can get 260 miles out of this battery.
我得老实说
I'll be honest,
我今天对测试续航没兴趣
I'm not really interested in testing the range today.
我要来好好玩一玩
I'm going to have a play.
因为我很珍惜我的驾照
And as I value my driving licence,
所以今天的游乐场是巴塞罗那附近的卡斯特洛利赛道
today's playground is the Castelloli Circuit near Barcelona.
来看看新生是否配得上掀背小轿车的名号♥
To see whether the Born is worthy of a hot hatch status,
我要让它与汽油动力的兄弟较劲
I'm going to compare it to it's petrol powered brother,
这辆战功彪炳的掀背小轿车
a hot hatch with a proven track record.
强大的谷巴“莱昂”
The formidable CUPRA Leon.
这是莱昂的第♥四♥代♥
This is the fourth generation of the Leon
老实说，我们《电车志》一直都是他们的粉丝
and to be honest we've always been a fan of them on Fifth Gear.
这里有不少呼噜声
There's plenty of grunt here.
我要先设定单圈时间的基准
I'll set a benchmark lap time around the circuit
再来看看电动版后生仔的表现
and we'll see how the electric powered new boy
与汽油动力版相比的究竟如何
compares against the petrol powered establishment.
出发
刹车非常好，这辆车减速非常出色
The breaks are very good. The car does stop superbly well.
悬架有点僵硬
Quite a stiff suspension.
你能感觉到它在路边和颠簸上四处乱窜
You could feel it popping around on the curbs and the bumps,
但它确实很好
but it does turn in quite nicely.
驾驶性能非常不错
The driveability is very good.
他们显然在
They've clearly done some great work
涡轮推进动力方面下了一番苦工
in terms of just getting the power delivery from that turbo engine
来达到这种平稳和循序渐进
to be smooth and progressive,
而且你不会感到任何停滞
you don't feel any lag.
降到二波，将动力提升
Down to second gear, pick up the power.
这辆车的加速有点太猛了
Picked too much on this gear.
莱昂通过终点的成绩
The Leon crosses the line
是可观的2分2秒
in a respectable two minutes and 2 seconds.
以汽油版掀背车的时间为准再来轮到我们的电动车新生了
Petrol hot hatch benchmark set, time for the electric Born.
与前轮驱动的莱昂不同
Unlike the front wheel drive Leon,
全电动的新生是后轮驱动而且具备完美的平衡
the all electric Born is rear wheel drive and beautifully balanced.
它像大多数电动汽车一样享有
It's got the benefit of having the batteries along the bottom,
电池位于底部的好处
like most EVs,
当然，这会降低重心
and that, of course, lowers the centre of gravity
并提供出色的平均重量分布
and offers a fantastic 50 50 weight distribution,
与莱昂相比，这可是大大的进步
which is a big step forward when compared to the Leon.
但是像这样把它扔到赛道上确实有个问题
But throwing it around on track like this did flag up an issue.
尽管它很劲
Despite the fact that it's cool
又是由再生绒面革制成的，但这些座椅
and it's made from recycled suede are these seats
真的会让我摔到中控台上
because I am literally falling out either onto the centre console
或让我手肘顶到门
or I'm propping myself up against the door.
所以这些座位确实显得有些局促
So I could do with a bit more hugging from these seats
如果要我老实说的话
I'll be perfectly honest.
该来刷新一下纪录了
Time for a fast lap.
来看看电动掀背车
Let's see if the EV hot hatch
是否能让他的汽油版兄弟脸上无光
can give his petrol sibling a bloody nose.
出发
这辆车的操控性非常出色
The handling on this thing is brilliant.
确实感觉它能掌控大约两倍的马力
It does feel like it could deal with about twice the amount of power.
加速
Accelerating.
加油
Come on,
冲啊…
come on, come on!
舒适地穿过后街的快速转弯处
Comfortably flat through the quick corner right down the back street.
它的乘坐质量确实非常好
It does have very good, ride quality.
这里的减速区相当颠簸
It's quite bumpy into this braking zone here,
但实际上刹车时的搭乘质量非常好
but actually the ride quality on the braking is very good.
在我看来，它并没有跳出线外
It doesn't seem to me bouncing off line.
我可以在顶点才过弯
I can just turn it into the apex,
加大马力也很容易
pick up the power nice and easy.
进入最后的发夹弯
Into the final hairpin.
加油…上啊…
Come on, come on, come one, go, go, go.
冲过终点线
Up to the line.
新生在2分15秒内越过终点线
And the Born crosses the line in two minutes and 15 seconds.
是的，这比莱昂慢了13秒
Yes, that's a whopping 13 seconds slower than the Leon.
但对于第一辆电动掀背车而言
