Chapter 121 Test Data of New Cars (Please Subscribe!)

"Your Highness, please forgive me for taking the initiative." Benz said to Arthur with an apologetic look.

"No, Mr. Benz. You did a good job on this matter. This is what I told you before. After the cost of the car is met, you have the right to start mass production." Arthur shook his head and said with a smile: "So you are not at fault, and I will never blame you."

After hearing what Arthur said, Benz and Diesel breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed.

"Let's go and see our new car." Arthur looked at the two people who were obviously relaxed and said with a smile.

Led by Benz and Diesel, Arthur and his group came to the warehouse of the Benz Automobile Factory, which is the building close to the right of the automobile factory.

After the staff opened a warehouse door, Benz walked forward, uncovered the black cloth covering the car, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, please look, this is the new car we produce. The basic shape and structure are similar to your car, but cheaper materials are used in some parts, which can ensure that the cost is around 80 pounds, and basically no more than 85 pounds."

Arthur looked at the black body and tires exposed under the black cloth, nodded, and asked: "How is the performance of such a car? Don't just care about the price and ignore the performance of the car, which is also an important condition related to the car market factors."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness. Although we use cheaper materials in some aspects, it will not affect the firmness, practicality and specific performance of the car itself. It's just that compared with your private car, the glass material, body material and engine model are different, and the performance will be slightly worse. But if it is placed in the world's car range, in terms of performance, our car is still first-class or even top." Benz explained.

Although this new car is very different from Arthur's private custom car, many materials are made of cheaper materials.

But this does not mean that the performance of the new car will become very poor. On the contrary, even if a lot of cheaper materials are used, the performance of the new car is still top-notch in the world car market. Whether in terms of practicality or performance, the cars of Benz Automobile Factory are definitely first-class or above.

"That's good." Arthur nodded and asked: "What is the specific performance of the new car? What is the expected price?"

Benz handed over a data sheet and said impatiently: "According to our many tests, the new car is a relatively stable and cost-effective car. The specific experimental data is already in the data, please take a look, Your Highness."

Arthur took the data and looked at it curiously.

At this stage, the test of the car is still relatively simple, roughly divided into several modules such as maximum speed test, uniform speed stability test, car stability test and car failure rate test on different road sections.

In terms of maximum speed, the new car uses the latest gasoline engine jointly developed by Benz and Diesel, rather than a diesel engine.

Gasoline engines have an advantage, that is, the noise is significantly reduced, which is more conducive to people's normal use.

Of course, it is not impossible for diesel engines to use more materials to reduce engine noise, but this will greatly increase the cost of the car, and only private customized vehicles like Arthur's will do so.

When carrying five people, the maximum speed of the new car can reach 55 kilometers per hour, and the maximum speed of the empty car can reach 65 kilometers per hour.

In terms of speed, the new car is already excellent. At least, except for Arthur's customized car, there are definitely less than five cars in the world that can exceed 65 kilometers per hour.

In terms of uniform speed test, the new car can run stably at a speed of 35 kilometers per hour for more than ten hours, or at the maximum speed for more than three hours.

Arthur is also satisfied with this aspect. At least the new car can run continuously for more than ten hours at a speed of about 35 kilometers per hour without problems.

Although it is possible to have a malfunction after driving at the maximum speed for more than three hours, there should be no fool who will drive at the maximum speed after buying a car, right?

After all, the price of a car has reached 150 pounds, which is the savings of many civilians for several years even in Europe.

Even if the price has been reduced, cars are still a luxury. Unless there is really too much money to spend, no one will destroy something that is hard to get.

Of course, there is another very important premise, that is, these tests are currently conducted on very flat roads.

At this stage, cars cannot withstand bumpy roads or other places where there are no roads.

If you drive in areas with poor road conditions, the stability of the car will be greatly reduced, and even problems will occur from time to time.

However, there is no need to worry about this problem for the time being. At this stage, cars are still luxury goods, and the real customers of cars are only Europeans and Americans.

Of course, with the construction and various policies of Australia, Oceanians can also join in and become potential customers of cars.

Whether it is America, Europe or Oceania, they already have extremely developed transportation systems, and flat roads are connected in all directions, so there is no need to worry about road problems.

Or like Australia and New Zealand, although the road system is not so developed, it is already under construction.

Flat roads have been built between cities in Australia, and are still being developed to towns and villages.

If Australians buy cars, they don't have to worry about the road problem. Because the Australian government will build roads that extend in all directions before they buy cars.

It's not that Arthur is unwilling to consider people in other regions. It's just that according to the income level of people in other regions, most people who want to buy cars may have to save up income for decades.

Maybe some dignitaries are interested in cars, but their purchasing potential is definitely not as good as that of current Europeans and Americans.

As expected, in the last test of various road sections, although the new car performed better than other cars, it was still similar to the cars of this era, with poor stability and high failure rate.

But there is no way around it. Aren't all kinds of cars with extremely excellent performance in later generations also developed step by step to that of current cars?

At least now, Arthur is initially satisfied to have a car with relatively excellent performance like the new car.
