10大值得复活的经典车型
水陆两用车 1961年,首款批量投产的水陆两用车问世。它在德国设计生产,水中的推动力来自于装在后保险杠下的两台螺旋桨。尽管没有干舷,两辆水陆两用车还是抵御住了20英尺高的海浪,于1968年成功横渡英吉利海峡。这种车一共只生产了4,000辆。 复活理由 20世纪50年代就有人做出了飞行汽车的预言,然而这种汽车从未正式投产过。因此,一辆水陆两用车就应该算是合情合理的替代品了。 译者:清远 |
Amphicar In 1961, the world got its first mass-produced amphibious automobile. Designed and manufactured in Germany, the Amphicar's water propulsion was provided by twin propellers mounted under the rear bumper. Despite the lack of a freeboard, two Amphicars survived 20-foot waves to cross the English Channel in 1968. Only 4,000 were ever produced. Why it should be revived Since the flying car forecast for the 1950s never made it into production, an amphibious car seems like a reasonable substitute. |
