Iħjut Magna ta ' l-istess wirja: Porsche Cayman

F ' Los Angelesit-ti ġdid ta ' Porsches sportscar line għadu għaddej bit-Tnedija tal-lum ta ' Cayman akbar u eħfef tat-tieni ġenerazzjoni fil-Turu ta ' Los Angeles, il-mutur ta ' l-i żgħar.
Il-coupe l-ġdida ta ' nofs il-magna tadotta pjattaforma mill-ġdid li toffri distribuzzjoni mtejba tal-PI ż kif ukoll serje ta ' miżuri ta ' ffrankar tal-PI ż li huma mitluba li jirriżultaw f ' karozza eħfef mill-prede ċessur tagħha.
Sister car mal-Boxster, li se tinbena ma ' Porsches Zuffenhausen factory (u eventwalment il-fabbrika Karmann antika f ' Osnabruck), il-Kajman il-ġdid jirċievi proporzjonijiet kemmxejn differenti fi mossa li sservi biex tiġbed is-silluwett tagħha u tipprovdi l-ba Żi għal kabina akbar. It-tul huwa sa 35mm, il-wisa ' testendi minn ma 1mm filwaqt li l-g ħoli jinżel b ' 10mm fuq il-prede ċessur tiegħu f ' 4380mm, 1801mm u 1295mm rispettivament.
Il-Cayman jerġa ' jaqsam l-istiling tiegħu mal-Boxster. Il-karatteristi ċi distintivi jinkludu dwal ta ' binhar u indikaturi li jinżammu f ' unità tonda, haunches ta ' wara aktar pronunzjata u stil ta ' dahar tas-salvata ġġ b ' ħafna angolat fuq wara.
Bħal fil-konfront ta ' aħwa tat-toroq tagħha, il-coupe il-ġdid jadotta dehra ta ' edgier mill-prede ċessur tiegħu, b ' kisi ta ' tauter u crisper, inkluż swage distintiv għaddej mill-bibien u f ' kanali ta ' tkessiħ akbar qabel l-arkati tar-roti ta ' wara. Bħala parti mill-fokus ta ' Porsche fuq l-iffrankar tal-PI ż, il-ġisem huwa l-aktar aluminju. Bħal fil-mudelli tal-Porsche riċenti kollha, il-mirja ta ' barra huma mmuntati fuq il-bibien aktar milli fis-serer. Il-kmamar tar-roti żdiedu wkoll fid-daqs, li jippermettu Porsche biex taqbel mal-firxa ta ' Kajman b ' roti pulzier 19 bħala standard u joffru rimmijiet pulzier 20 bħala għażla.
Ġewwa, hemm intern ta ' kwalità ogħla b ' livelli miżjuda ta ' akkomodazzjoni. Iż-żewġ tqassim tas-sit jibqa ', iżda kabina itwal tipprovdi livelli akbar ta ' aġġustament tas-sit u ħażna mtejba. Porsche tallega 150 litru ta ' spazju tal-bagalji fl-imnie ħer u 162 litru oħra fuq wara fl-ispazju ' l fuq mill-magna.
Bħal fil-Boxster, il-Kajman il-ġdid se jinbiegħ bl-g ħażla ta ' żewġ magni ċatti sitt: ġdid 2. 7-litru u VERŻJONI maħduma mill-ġdid tat-3 eżistenti. 4-litru. Ix-xerrejja se jkunu jistgħu wkoll jagħżlu bejn żewġ gearboxes: manwal ta ' sitt veloċità standard jew unità ta ' klaċċ ta ' seba ' veloċità doppja, li jista ' jgħaġġel il-magna u jiddiżinvolvi l-KLA ċċ fuq throttle li jkun hemm biex isalva l-karburant.
-2. l-unità ta ' 7 litri tissostitwixxi l-eqdem 2. magna ta ' 9 litri, li tipproduċi aktar minn 10bhp, iżda ta ' 7lb pied mingħajr torque, b ' 275bhp u 214lb FT. Huwa biżżejjed li l-1310kg Cayman tiġi ppel għal 62mph f ' 5. 7sec u sa veloċità ogħla ta ' 165mph, filwaqt li jagħtu konsum kombinat ta ' fjuwil ta ' 34. 5mpg u emissjonijiet ta ' CO2 ta ' 192g/km, bil-gerboks standard ta ' sitt-velo ċità. Il-gerboks tal-klaċċ doppju testendi l-prestazzjoni u tnaqqas il-konsum u l-emissjonijiet, b ' talbiet uffiċjali ta ' 5. 4sec, 164mph, 36. 7mpg u 180g/km.
Se jingħaqad mill-bidu mill-ġdid 3. magna 4-litri. Hija tagħti 5bhp aktar iżda l-istess livell ta ' torque bħall-unità l-Qadima, bi 325bhp f ' 7400rpm u 273lb FT fi 4500rpm. Dan huwa biżżejjed biex jagħti l-a ċidu 1320kg ta ' Cayman b ' ħin uffiċjali ta ' 0-62mph ta ' 5. 0sec f ' forma ta ' Manwal ta ' sitt veloċità u 4. 7sec bil-gerboks tal-KLA ċċ doppju, flimkien ma ' veloċitajiet ta ' l-aqwa korrispondenti ta ' 176mph u 175mph. il-konsum tal-fjuwil jitpoġġa għal 32. 1mpg u 35. 3mpg rispettivament għaż-żewġ gearboxes, b ' emissjonijiet korrispondenti ta ' CO2 ta ' 206g/km u 188g/km.
Li tirfed il-Porsche l-ġdida hija l-istess chassis intensiv ta ' l-aluminju użat mill-Boxster. Hija tirċievi żieda ta ' 60mm fil-medda tad-distanza fuq il-pjattaforma użata mill-ewwel ġenerazzjoni li tkun ħierġa Cayman ta ' 2475mm. Il-binarji ġew estiżi wkoll b ' 36mm għal 1526mm fuq quddiem u 5mm għal 1540mm fuq wara, u tagħtiha pożizzjoni saħansitra aktar konfidenti.
Bħal fil-Boxster, il-karozza l-ġdida tadotta wkoll sistema Elettro-mekkanika ta ' l-istering u tiġi bl-g ħażla ta ' Porsches PASM (Porsche Active ta ' ġestjoni ta ' sospensjoni) li toffri karatteristiċi differenti ta ' damping, throttle u manuvrar. Il-Kajman roti ta ' 18-il pulzier-8 pulzieri wiesgħa quddiem u 9 pulzieri fuq wara, shod ma ' tajers 235/45 u 265/45. Ir-roti pulzier 19 tal-Cayman S huma ta ' 8 pulzier wiesa ' quddiem u 9. 5 pulzieri fuq wara u jiġu ma ' profil aktar baxx 235/40 u 265/40 gomma. Il-brejkijiet standard tal-azzar huma ta ' dijametru ta ' 315mm għal Cayman u 330mm għall-Front ta ' Cayman, biż-żewġ qsim tal-istess rotors 299mm fuq wara.
It-tnaqqis fl-g ħoli jingħad li jipprovdi ċentru ta ' gravità aktar baxx-xi ħaġa li t-talbiet Porsche hija fil-qalba ta ' titjib fil-kapa ċità dinamika ġenerali tal-Caymans. Xejn m ' hu uffiċjali biss iżda l-persuni nterni jissuġġerixxu li l-Cayman huwa sa 10sek kull ħoġor aktar malajr madwar l-Nürburgring mill-mudell il-qadim.

Longer, lower, faster and lighter - new Cayman unveiled in Los AngelesThe renewal of Porsches sportscar line up continues apace with today's unveiling of a larger and lighter second-generation Cayman at the Los Angeles motor show.
The new mid-engined coupe adopts a redesigned platform offering improved weight distribution as well as a series of weight saving measures that are claimed to result in a lighter car than its predecessor.
Sister car to the Boxster, which it will be built with at Porsches Zuffenhausen factory (and eventually the old Karmann factory in Osnabruck), the new Cayman receives slightly different proportions in a move that serves to stretch its silhouette and provide the basis for a larger cabin. Length is up by 35mm, width extends by a scant 1mm while height drops by 10mm over its predecessor at 4380mm, 1801mm and 1295mm respectively.
The Cayman once again shares its styling with the Boxster. Distinguishing features include daytime running lights and indicators housed within a round unit, more pronounced rear haunches and a heavily angled liftback style tailgate at the rear.
As with its roadster sibling, the new coupe adopts an edgier appearance than its predecessor, with tauter surfacing and crisper lines, including a distinctive swage running through the doors and into larger cooling ducts ahead of the rear wheel arches. As part of Porsche's focus on weight saving, the body is predominantly aluminium. As on all recent Porsche models, the exterior mirrors are mounted on the doors rather than within the glasshouse. The wheelhouses have also increased in size, allowing Porsche to fit the range topping Cayman S with 19 inch wheels as standard and offer 20 inch rims as an option.
Inside, there is a higher quality interior with added levels of accommodation. The two seat layout remains, but a longer cabin provides greater levels of seat adjustment and improved storage. Porsche claims 150 litres of luggage space in the nose and a further 162 litres at the rear in the space above the engine.
As with the Boxster, the new Cayman will be sold with the choice of two flat six engines: a new 2. 7-litre and a reworked version of the existing 3. 4-litre. Buyers will also be able to choose between two gearboxes: a standard six speed manual or a seven speed dual clutch unit, which can idle the engine and disengage the clutch on a trailing throttle for to save fuel.
The 2. 7-litre unit replaces the older 2. 9-litre engine, producing an added 10bhp but 7lb ft less torque, with 275bhp and 214lb ft. It is sufficient to propel the 1310kg Cayman to 62mph in 5. 7sec and up to a top speed of 165mph, while delivering a combined fuel consumption of 34. 5mpg and CO2 emissions of 192g/km, with the standard six-speed gearbox. The dual clutch gearbox extends performance and reduces consumption and emissions, with official claims of 5. 4sec, 164mph, 36. 7mpg and 180g/km.
It will be joined from the outset by the reworked 3. 4-litre engine. It delivers 5bhp more but the same level of torque as the old unit, with 325bhp at 7400rpm and 273lb ft at 4500rpm. This is enough to endow the 1320kg Cayman S with an official 0-62mph time of 5. 0sec in six-speed manual form and 4. 7sec with the dual clutch gearbox, together with corresponding top speeds of 176mph and 175mph. Fuel consumption is put at 32. 1mpg and 35. 3mpg respectively for the two gearboxes, with corresponding CO2 emissions of 206g/km and 188g/km.
Underpinning the new Porsche is the same aluminium intensive chassis used by the Boxster. It receives a 60mm increase in the wheelbase over the platform used by the outgoing first-generation Cayman at 2475mm. The tracks have also been extended by 36mm to 1526mm at the front and 5mm to 1540mm at the rear, giving it an even more confident stance.
As with the Boxster, the new car also adopts an electro-mechanical steering system and comes with the option of Porsches PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) that offers differing damping, throttle and steering characteristics. The Cayman wears 18-inch wheels – 8 inches wide up front and 9 inches at the rear, shod with 235/45 and 265/45 tyres. The 19 inch wheels of the Cayman S are 8 inch wide up front and 9. 5 inches at the rear and come with lower profile 235/40 and 265/40 rubber. The standard steel brakes are 315mm in diameter for the Cayman and 330mm for the Cayman S up front, with the two sharing the same 299mm rotors at the rear.
The reduction in height is said to provide a lower centre of gravity – something Porsche claims is at the heart of improvements in the Caymans overall dynamic ability. Nothing is official just yet but insiders suggest the Cayman S is up to 10sec per lap faster around the Nürburgring than the old model.
