To put that into perspective, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4 did it in 7 minutes

If you drive an econobox, it is most likely using a torsion beam (or twist beam) setup. If you have a “premium “or “performance” car, it is most likely using a multi-link suspension setup. So, torsion beams are clearly the inferior suspension, right? Well, cars like the Renault Megane RS and the FK2 Honda Civic Type R use torsion beam suspension setups. Even the Mazda 3 switched to torsion beam from multi-link, so they might not be so inferior after all. Just like every other technology, the tor

如果你驾的是一辆经济型小车,那么它的悬吊很可能采用的是扭力梁(或扭转梁)结构。如果你驾的是“高档”车或“性能”车,那么它用的就可能是多连杆悬吊了。那么,这是否代表着,扭力梁显然要更加低级呢? 其实,像Renault Megane RS和FK2 Honda Civic Type R这样的车子也采用了扭力梁悬吊。就连Mazda 3都从多连杆换成了扭力梁,看来它们也不是那么低级嘛。 和任何一种技术一样,扭力梁悬吊也有着自己的优点和缺点。 缺点:缺乏舒适性 扭力梁悬吊最显著的缺点就是左右轮不是独立运动的,这是因为扭力梁是焊接到左右两边的下摆臂上的。 与实心车轴(例如Toyota Hilux)相比,扭力梁有更好的弹性,可以通过弯曲减少左右作用力的相互影响。因此,扭力梁可以算是“半独立”悬吊。 不过,真正的独立悬吊(多连杆)在隔离路面起伏上的表现肯定要好得多。 因为左右的作用力依旧会传递,因此后排乘客的舒适性也会打折扣。 通过对扭力梁的多个方面(厚度、焊接点、形状、轴心位置等)进行设计,可以改进扭力梁悬吊的乘坐舒适性。现在,有越来越多的车型在不牺牲乘坐舒适性的情况下,使用了扭力梁悬吊,但扭力梁悬吊

Jika anda ada kereta bajet, besar kemungkinan kereta tersebut mempunyai tetapan ‘torsion beam’ (atau ‘twist beam’). Jika kereta anda kereta “premium” atau “performance”, ia barangkali menggunakan tetapan ‘multi-link suspension’. Maka, ‘torsion beam’ adalah jenis suspension yang kurang baik lah, kan? Tapi, kereta-kereta seperti Renault Megane RS dan FK2 Honda Civic Type R menggunakan tetapan ‘torsion beam suspension’. Mazda 3 pun beralih dari ‘multi-link’ ke ‘torsion beam’. Oleh itu, ia mungkin a

As much as enthusiasts such as myself lament the inevitable demise of manual transmissions (MT), there is simply no business case for manufacturers to continue offering a manual option. Instead, dual-clutch transmissions (DCT) or traditional automatic transmissions (AT) are taking over their place. Admittedly, I have defended manual transmissions since the birth of YouTube comment section, not that I participate in them, it's only mental replies. But no longer am I oblivious to the preferences o
