Ще го преведе ли някой ? Интересно ми е какво значи легендарното корадо

Списанието е "Car Magazine", а статията е "10-те коли, които трябва да карате преди да умрете"
~None~ написа:
L = Luxe (base model)
LS = Luxe Special, couple more do-dads
GT = Grand Tourisme, better equipped & usually a larger engine
than the "L" series
GL = Grand Luxe (geared for more luxury), basically == GT
GTI/GLI = Originally, the fuel injected version of a GT/GL which means
it produced a lot more power. With most cars FI, the GTI/GLI
designation means a more powerful engine than a GT/GL
model, sometimes also with a better suspension. Note that
originally,
GLI != Jetta, as the case in the USA.
SL = Serie Limite' (limited series), like the Karmann series in US.
Really a variation on a GT.
GTX = Same as GTI but used in Europe and elsewhere.
G40/60 = GT version with VWs G-type supercharger. The number is the
width of the G-charger (lader in D) coil in militers.
For those who aren't aware, the G40 is used on some Polos,
the G60 on Passats and Corrados.
VR6 = Cars based on the new staggered 6 cylinder engine
(in-line-V-6).
SLC = Sport Luxury Coupe, the VR6 equipped Corrado in the US.
Syncro = VWs version 4WD distributes its torque with a "visco-gear"
(It's a special silicone gel that stiffens if the relative
motion (shear) increases) VWs 4WD is designed by Steyr-Puch,
an Austrian Company and not by Audi.
Originally, all European VWs were carbureted, except those with the "I"
or "i" and a few rare cases with an "E" for "Einspritzung", designation
which had a more powerful fuel injected engine, a "GT" set-up, and some more sporty equipment (suspension, gauges).
In the US, VW switched over to FI first with the '76 limited
edition Super Scirocco and in 77 to the rest of VW's watercooled
cars, and in Europe a bit later (with mono-throttle FI) which meant that
all cars really counted as "I" models.
GTI/GLI now just means that the car has a more powerful engine and a
sportier set-up.
Note also that the US, only gets the two top of the line VWs from their
larger mass produced series (but not the Polo).
Certain special models, such as the Golf G60 Synchro, the US will never
see.
In Europe, VWs came with anywhere from 1100, 1300 to 2900 cc
engines. The US never saw the 1100 & the 1300's and only sees a
slightly scaled down version of the 2900.
=====================================
И за имената:
Most of the European names given to VWs came from wind names.
In other countries, the same models may bear different names, such as
the Golf I called the Rabbit in the US and Caribe (?) in Mexico.
More recently, VW started adopting other naming convetions (e.g.,
Corrado). (Enhanced with Dennis's notes).
Scirocco - Hot North African desert wind that blows into Italy
Original name was rumored to be Blizzard.
Golf - Gulf stream winds (a high altitude North-south 100 mmph
wind)
Jetta - Jet stream (East/West wind, affecting Pacific air travel)
Passat - Trade winds
Vento - Blowing/windy (E/I)
Polo - ?
Santana - Hot desert blast accross the Sea of Cortez.
Corrado - Not a wind, it's derived from Spanish Correr which means
to
run. The original name for the car was Taifun (Typhoon)
which means huricane except it was already a registered
trade mark for a GM truck.
