The Vandenbrink Carver is a crossover vehicle of a different sort:its enclosed cabin is reminiscent(注:reminiscent回忆往事的,怀旧的) of a car's (specifically,the New Beetle's),but it seats just two in tandem(注:tandem
前后双座的车) like a motorcycle.It leans into turns (motorcycle),as directed by a steering wheel (car).Its three wheels split the difference.
Key to the Carver's tilt is Dynamic(注:dynamic动力的,动态的) Vehicle Control,which senses speed and road conditions and then adjusts the lean of the front wheel and body (up to 45 degrees) to optimize(注:optimize
使完善,改善) balance in corners.Its 660cc 65 -horsepower engine pushes it to 60 mph in 8 seconds,with a 118-mph top speed.
[参考译文]Vandenbrink公司推出了转向灵活而风格独特的Carver轿车,它的驾驶室很像小汽车的(尤其像新甲壳虫的驾驶室),但里面的座椅又和摩托车一样前后排列。转弯时能倾斜(如摩托车那样),而又由方向盘来控制方向(如汽车那样)。而该款轿车有3个车轮,具有摩托车和汽车的折中特性。
该款轿车倾斜的关键在于它的车辆动力控制系统,该系统能根据车速和路况对前车轮和车身的倾斜度进行调整(最大倾斜度可达45度),从而改善车在转弯时的平衡状态。它配备了600毫升65马力的发动机,使其在8秒钟内就能加速到60英里/小时,最高可达118英里/小时。
