Tråd: Toyota GT86 cabriolet i verk

Drop-top Toyota sportsbil tippet Genève 2013 debut en cabriolet versjon av Toyota GT86 vil bli avslørt på Geneva motor show neste mars, har innsidere antydet.
Selv om ingenting ennå er bekreftet, sin forstått den GT86-cabriolet vil bruke en elektronisk operert folding stoff taket i stedet for en tyngre uttrekkbar hardtop for å inneholde vekt øker.
Fremdeles er hvordan Toyota vil pakke GT86 kupeer to små baksetet, hvis alt, og hvor taket lagres uten å ofre for mye bagasje kapasitet.
Cabriolet, spesielt viktig for det amerikanske markedet, er sannsynlig å beholde kupeer 197bhp normalt pustende 2. 0-liters motor.
Vekt gevinst er forstått å være liten, begrense virkningen på ytelsen. Suspensjon er sannsynlig å være litt myknet for å håndtere lavere kroppen stivhet.
Mens cabriolet er ennå å bli offisielt erklært, maskinsjef Toyotas sportsbiler, Tetsuya Tada, bekrefter at en ytelse versjon av GT86 var i arbeid.
Men i stedet for å bruke tvunget induksjon, at slipt GT86 er sannsynlig å bruke blanding kjøre for å gi ekstra løft uten påvirker økonomi. Tada sa en GT86 ytelse hybrid med rundt 250bhp var i utvikling i Japan, med en på salg dato av 2015 mooted.
Tada foreslo testen muldyr bruker en super kondensator i stedet for batterier-samme prinsipp som førte Toyota å vinne i år i utholdenhet VM med en prototype rase bil.
Når en ytelse versjon av GT86 er annonsert, sa du vil bli overrasket, Tada. Disse dager, aksepterer publikum ikke en sportsbil som bruker for mye bensin og har høy CO2-utslipp.
Tada sa super kondensator teknologi var for dyrt for gatebiler akkurat nå, men at Toyota jobbet med elektronikk spesialister å løse problemet, og at ytelsen GT86 ikke kunne gå til markedet med en høy pris hvis det var å være konkurransedyktig.

Drop-top Toyota sports car tipped for Geneva 2013 debut A cabriolet version of the Toyota GT86 will be revealed at the Geneva motor show next March, insiders have hinted.
Although nothing has yet been confirmed, its understood the GT86 cabriolet will use an electronically operated folding fabric roof rather than a heavier retractable hard-top in order to contain weight increases.
Still to be seen is how Toyota will package the GT86 coupes two small rear seats, if it all, and where the roof will be stored without sacrificing too much luggage capacity.
The cabriolet, particularly important for the US market, is likely to retain the coupes 197bhp normally aspirated 2. 0-litre engine.
Weight gains are understood to be small, limiting the impact on performance. Suspension is likely to be slightly softened to deal with lower body stiffness.
While the cabriolet is yet to be officially declared, the chief engineer of Toyotas sports cars, Tetsuya Tada, did confirm that a performance version of the GT86 was in the works.
But rather than using forced induction, the honed GT86 is likely to use hybrid drive to provide extra boost without impacting economy. Tada said a GT86 performance hybrid with around 250bhp was in development in Japan, with an on-sale date of 2015 mooted.
Tada suggested the test mule uses a super-capacitor rather than batteries — the same principle that led Toyota to win this year in the World Endurance Championship with a prototype race car.
When a performance version of GT86 is announced, you will be surprised, said Tada. These days, the public does not accept a sports car that uses too much petrol and has high CO2 emissions.
Tada said super-capacitor technology was too expensive for road cars just now, but that Toyota was working with electronics specialists to solve the issue, and that the performance GT86 could not go to market with a high price if it was to be competitive.
