DAEWOO KALOS (2003 - TO 2005)大宇kalos(2003年-2005年)
Daewoo?s bargain basement, no-frills approach to car manufacturing may have enabled it to get a toehold in the UK market, but such a strategy isn?t a viable way to maximise profits in the car industry.大宇?收盘讨价还价地下室,无兼顾的做法可能使它汽车制造业取得立脚点在英国市场但这种策略肖国?笔最大利润的可行办法,在汽车工业. Building added value into a product and charging a little more for it is a far better business model and it?s one that Daewoo had to pursue, encumbered as they were by a brand name that still smacked of lowest common denominator motoring.建筑业增加值变成产品和服务收费多,因为这是一个商业模式,它好得多?一收盘,大宇曾追求押作为一个品牌,他们依然帝制低龄驾驶. The Kalos was their first offering in the supermini sector that could sell without price being the overriding factor and it was good enough to put a lick on quite a few more mainstream names.首次开办的是kalos在超小型可出售未经物价部门作为首要的因素,它足以把敷衍了事就更有不少主流名字. Tracking down a used example shouldn?t be too difficult and nor should it prove a big risk.追缉来说都不应该使用?笔会太难,也不应证明一大风险.
HISTORY历史
First seen in the UK at the 2002 Motor Show, Daewoo?s Kalos wowed the crowds with its avant garde styling and neat interior detailing.首先出现于2002年在英国汽车展大宇?收盘kaloswowed人潮与前卫造型明快内政部详述. Cars started arriving in dealer showrooms in early January 2003 and take up was good.汽车经销商陈列室月初开始到2003年1月出任良好. The range initially consisted of the 1.2S amd SE models and a 1.4SE version.初步形成了各种型号、硒1.2s热潮1.4se版. The 1.4-litre 16-valve cars arrived a few weeks later, being offered in SE or SX trim.1.4公升16阀车到达数星期后,在硒或SX的修剪优惠. Summer 2003 saw the introduction of the value-packed 1.4 Xtra and the sporty 1.4 16v Blue edition.2003年夏天推出的价值包装和潇洒四月一日四月一日放大16v蓝色版. The death knell sounded for the Kalos when Daewoo ceased to be but the car continued rebadged as a Chevrolet with some success.敲响丧钟的时候大宇kalos但不再是为雪佛兰轿车继续rebadged一些成效.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫
The styling is certainly eye catching, although the exterior contours have not been penned at the expense of practicality.当然醒目的造型,虽然外形轮廓没有写上,而忽略了实用性. This is, after all, a Daewoo and must offer value for money twinned with common sense utility that buyers can relate to.这毕竟一、大宇必须物有所值,对其事业,买家可以用常理相. With each successive generation of cars from the Korean manufacturer becoming ever more sophisticated, the Kalos represents the first time that a Daewoo has been genuinely class competitive and not just recommended because of its pocket money pricing.每一代的汽车从朝鲜接连制造越来越精密,kalos的代表首次有真正一流的竞争力和大宇已不仅仅是因为其推荐定价零用钱. Pitch the sticker price of the Kalos into the middle of the current set of superminis and it would still find several takers.草地的贴纸的价格kalos迁入目前过于superminis它仍会找几个买家.
It?s certainly not bland.?收盘绝不平淡. "When we designed it, we set out to produce an alternative to conventional lines and tread new paths in terms of design," says Giorgetto Giugiaro, explaining the philosophy behind the design of the Kalos."我们在设计它,出门代替传统生产线和新路子,在胎面设计",giorgettogiugiaro,解释设计背后的理念kalos. You could say he?s hit that particular bullseye.你可以说他?收盘击中,尤其bullseye. The front end is quite unlike any other production car, the huge headlights striking in their clear glass lenses with indicators that are arranged almost like eyelids.前端并不像其他汽车生产、巨额头灯打在玻璃镜片有明确的指标排列近乎眼皮.
The flanks of the Kalos are marked with three competing attention seekers.为两翼的三个kalos却有其竞合求职者注意. Firstly there?s a swage line across the front door that heads rapidly south as soon as it encounters the rear doors.第一?尼全国型材线迅速南大门迎尽快遇到后方车门. The front wheelarches are rounded, but the rears have a squared off blister above them which really shouldn?t work but does.前排wheelarches四舍五入,但有抚养平方以上水泡过他们实在不应当?但这笔工作. Finally there?s a strange, almost vestigial, third window at the side that Daewoo claims, "optically loosens the rear of the car."终于有?收盘奇怪,几乎残留、三窗口,在大宇债权方、"光放松后方车" Make of that what you will.那你会做出什么.
The interior is as striking as the bodywork.引人注目的是,作为内陆车体. Far from the usual South Korean elephant grey, the Kalos features high quality materials and imaginative design.韩国大象远非一般灰色,kalos特色优质材料和设计创意. Imagine Volkswagen at its best and then splash that design with a few touches of metallic brightwork and you?ll not be too far from the mark.想象福士处于最佳设计,然后溅有几触及金属brightwork你?当地不太远的大关. In the SX variant, there?s a contrast between anthracite centre console and pale grey on the dashboard.在SX的变种,有吗?一个中心控制台收盘反差无烟煤灰色的仪表板和苍白. The steering wheel and instrument binnacle are also finished in anthracite with a subtle carbon-fibre effect surrounding the window switches.方向盘及仪表binnacle还建成了微妙无烟煤碳纤维环绕效果开关窗口. The twin ventilator rosettes that burst from the top of the dashboard highlight a circular design theme that?s continued throughout the cabin, mirrored on the side air vents, the displays and the door handles.双呼吸器花环,从高高的仪表板爆裂突出圆形设计主题是什么?收盘续整个机舱,对空方反映通风口,显示器和门柄. You?ll even find the theme continued on the fabric applied to the doors.你?当地连续为主题的织物适用于门.
The passenger compartment is extremely spacious, due in no small part to the 2.48 metre wheelbase - one of the longest in the supermini class.乘客车厢极为宽敞,归功于轴距为2.48米,其中最长的超小型班. Daewoo claim the 955 millimetres of headroom to be a class best.大宇索赔955毫米的步伐,一类是最好的. The rear seat splits in the normal 60/40 manner but also has a trick up its sleeve.后座分裂的方式,但也有正常60/40伎俩了一手. You can not only fold it down, but also jack-knife it forward and secure it to the back of the front seats.你不仅可以折叠下来,而且杰克刀、稳妥推进到后面的座位前面. This little party trick frees up a cavernous 735 litres of available luggage space, in effect more than quadrupling the usual capacity of 175 litres with the rear parcel shelf in place.这个小把戏党懦了海绵735公升行李可用空间实际上比1750年翻两番的常住公升容量的包裹棚后方到位.
Safety is well catered for with all models getting anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution, twin front and side airbags, three-point belts on all five seats and ISOFIX anchorage points for a child seat in the back.安全是照顾好所有型号越来越防抱死制动系统与电子brakeforce分配双侧面气袋,三点式安全带及所有五个座位isofix锚地点的孩子回到座位. Otherwise expect to find power assisted steering, central locking with alarm, electric front windows, cup holders front and rear, an auxiliary power outlet in the back and a tilt adjustable steering column.否则期望找到助力转向、中央锁与报警、电动窗门前,持杯前后,辅助电力分店背部倾斜可调、督导专栏. The SX adds air conditioning, electric rear windows, a height adjustable driver?s seat, a tachometer, front fog lamps, a dipping rear view mirror and ?SX的加重了空调、后排电动窗、高度可调司机?收盘席位,转速表,前雾灯一、浸渍倒后镜? last but not least ?最后? a picnic table on the back of the front passenger seat.野餐表背面前座乘客座位.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
Although used Kalos models are still a little thin on the ground at present, 1.4-litre SX models can be found in used car supermarkets for under £4,300 on an 02 52 plate.虽然用kalos型号仍有点薄在地上目前,1.4-公升SX的车用型号均可在超市下了4300英镑,1952年2月板块. Insurance for all Kalos models is eminently reasonable, starting at Group 3 for the 1.2-litre S and rising to Group 6 for the sporting 1.4-litre 16v Blue.保险kalos所有型号非常合理,在第三组出发的120亿公升上升到了体育组61.4-16v蓝色公升.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
As with all cars that get used to ferry children back and forth, check for rips, stains and other damage to upholstery and minor trim parts.如所有车惯孩子来回渡船、支票核糖,污渍等座垫及轻微损坏部分修剪. Also bear in mind that the Kalos will likely have been largely used as an urban scoot so check for parking knocks.忘记了kalos将可能被用来作为主要都市停车检查scoot等磕磕碰碰. Remember to check whether you?re being taken for a ride by a 1.4 Xtra owner expecting SE residuals.记得查看你?再上当受骗了期待拥有一个1.4放大硒残值. Other than that, expect the usual Daewoo reliability.除了这些之外,一般预料大宇可靠性. Despite this, check for its service history but otherwise buy with confidence.虽然如此,但查历史否则买它的服务满怀信心. A major plus point, though, is the warranty that buying through an official sales channel brings.加一大点,虽然是保修,通过购买销售渠道,使官. Daewoo buyers, new and used, enjoy things like courtesy cars and free MoT tests; for many people that's important.大宇买家,新旧,享受免费车和东西塔礼貌测试;对许多人而言,重要.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(Estimated prices, based on a 2003 1.4SX) Parts prices are one area where Daewoo struggle to match the more mainstream manufacturers but since the tie in with General Motors some parts have become more realistically priced.(估计价格根据2003年1.4sx)零件价格是一个领域大宇斗争配合主流厂商更多,但由于配合在部分地区已经成为通用汽车更真实价格. Therefore, a clutch assembly will be around £90 and an air filter should be close to £12.因此,大会将离合器90英镑左右的空气滤清器要贴近英镑12. Brake pads are around £35 a front set with a water pump relieving you of nearly £60.刹车皮是35英镑左右,与前一集水泵解除你将近英镑60.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
The 1.4-litre 8v engine and five-speed manual gearbox are a willing combination, powering the Kalos to a top speed of 105mph and capable of hitting 60mph in 13 seconds.140公升改装引擎和五速变速箱是手工愿意联合、力kalos以最高时速达105mph并可以打到60mph13秒. An average fuel consumption figure of nearly 38mpg is reasonable, whilst CO2 emissions of 175g/km are a little way off the class best.平均耗油38mpg数字接近合理虽然二氧化碳排放量175g/km是有点距离的最好课堂. The 1.4-litre 16v is a tad brisker, hitting 60mph in 10.9 seconds.140公升16v是小孩子活跃,在9月10日打到60mph秒. Even the 1.2-litre Kalos is no slouch and its combined fuel economy figure of 43mpg is not to be sniffed at.连120公升kalos没有旗袍及其组合燃油经济数字并非可嗅到上午43mpg.
OVERALL 总体
As long as you know that your used Daewoo Kalos is never going to set neighbourhood curtains twitching in envy, it will make a dependable buy.只要你知道你是永远不会用大宇kalos订窗帘跳动在邻里羡慕,它将使向来买. Other rivals may have more flair, cleverer tricks up their sleeves and more seductive styling, but the Kalos is going to leave a smaller dent in your disposable income reserves.其他可能的对手更气派、更聪明高招惹火造型,但kalos快要离开你们的可支配收入较少攻入储备. That?ll be more than enough to swing the balance for many cash-strapped families.为何?当地足以平衡许多秋千有钱的家庭.
