1031 1016. Fancy Pickup (2/5)
Chapter 1031 1016. Fancy Pickup (25)
Compared with the steel fortress-like concept car, the interior of the F650 is worse. It has no leather interior, and the design of the steering wheel, instrument panel and center console is a bit rough, but the division of various functional areas is also very reasonable.
George said that this is the style of American pickup trucks, with more roughness and less detail. No matter how powerful the F650 is, it is still just a pickup truck and should not demand too much from it in terms of luxury.
In addition to the speedometer and speedometer, the instrument panel of the F650 also adds dials for engine oil temperature, water temperature, tire pressure and oil volume, which is convenient for the driver to understand the driving situation of the car more clearly.
However, the simple and rough interior style also has an advantage, that is, there are no complicated things, and the seating space in the car is large enough.
"Don't look at it as big and three rough, in fact, this car is very thoughtful in the details of the car. You see, the cargo box can be controlled from the cab, and it can be lifted and lowered electrically."
Motak also nodded, and said: "For the farmer, boss, it is indeed a good choice to buy a Ford f650. It can be used as a good helper in daily work, and it can also be used as a comfortable family car."
"What about the F750?" Wang Bo asked curiously.
George said: "The price of F750 is 25% higher than that of F650. In fact, it does not improve the performance much, but shows Ford's future design concept."
"The 750 uses a plug-in hybrid system that uses 120V/240V AC to charge the lithium-ion battery. It takes five hours to fully charge the 28kWh battery pack, and the hybrid system adds about 1600 pounds of weight. Now for It's not the right fit for the farm."
"Yes, it's used to invest in environmental causes, the F750 is not as practical as the 650 for New Zealand farms," Motak said.
F650 is domineering enough, Wang Bo is very satisfied with this car.
It is impossible for the farm to use only one kind of pickup truck. The fuel consumption of the F650 is terrible, and it is usually enough to use a small pickup truck, so he chose two medium-sized F450s to make the transition.
Two F450s, two F650s, a total of four large pickup trucks, the price is 500,000 New Zealand dollars.
George gave him insurance and five-year maintenance for four cars, and also gave him a Ford agricultural off-road vehicle, which was Kaplan's face.
Ford agricultural off-road vehicles are a bit like ATVs. A vehicle costs more than 4,000 New Zealand dollars, and it can be driven on all terrains. Of course, it goes without saying that it is comfortable.
This car is a car that can really climb mountains. Although it is simple, when it gets to the mountains, even a serious off-road vehicle can't keep up with it.
After happy card payment, George received them and had another authentic Christchurch meal, and they entered the agricultural machinery exhibition in the afternoon.
The role of personal connections was perfectly demonstrated today. Professor Brandt also helped him contact people. A person in charge of this agricultural machinery exhibition studied with him during his postgraduate studies. When Wang Bo arrived at the exhibition site, he came to receive a group of people.
When Motak saw it, he was convinced: "Boss, you have an unusual network."
The scale of the exhibition is very large. It is the annual agricultural machinery exhibition in New Zealand. All large agricultural machinery manufacturers in Australia and New Zealand participated, and many countries in Europe, America and Asia also sent teams.
Entering the entrance of the exhibition, Wang Bo was surprised to find that inside the entrance was a colorful pickup truck with the International Red Cross logo on the front of the car, and the painting of the Star of Life-Snake Cane on the doors on both sides.
"What's this? The medical industry and agriculture have joined forces?" he asked.
The reason why he noticed this car was because he saw the logo of the car. He used to see this guy often in China, the Great Wall pickup truck.
Brandt's apprentice is called Turiahura Tata, a Maori who is generally called by his nickname, Tuta.
After listening to his inquiry, Tuta explained: "Although this is an exhibition of agricultural machinery, in fact, some machinery from other industries also participated in the exhibition. This is a medical emergency pickup truck produced by China Great Wall Motor Company."
Tuta doesn't know much about Asia, and he can't distinguish the appearance of Asians. He doesn't know that Wang Bo is Chinese.
Wang Bo was kind enough to see a car produced in his motherland in New Zealand, so he wanted to go and have a look.
At the booth of Great Wall, several handsome men and women with Chinese faces stared at each other. Almost all the people who came to the exhibition were farmers and ranchers from Australia and New Zealand, and they had no interest in medical emergency vehicles.
So, when Wang Bo walked in with someone, two pretty girls greeted him immediately, and they warmly asked with tea and water: "Hello, sir, what's your name?"
"My surname is Wang, so I don't need to speak English, I just need to speak Mandarin," Wang Bo said.
When they heard that this was still a compatriot, several people were even happier.
One of the men, who looked like a leader, looked at Wang Bo carefully and asked, "Your surname is Wang. Are you Wang Bo? The mayor of Sunset Town?"
Wang Bo smiled and said, "Yes, have we met?"
The middle-aged man said: "It's a pleasure to meet you. I have met you. In the computer news, Sunset Town is very famous. You are the pride of the Chinese in New Zealand."
Knowing his identity, the eyes of the girls glowed. As the middle-aged man said, Wang Bo is the pride of all Chinese in New Zealand and even Oceania.
"We are going to travel to Sunset Town after participating in the event." A girl said, "I didn't expect to meet the mayor."
Wang Bodao: "That's very welcome, but what kind of car is this? I'm quite interested."
When it came to work, the group became serious and reserved.
The middle-aged man came up and introduced himself: "This is an emergency truck. Our Pickup Truck Division of Great Wall Group successfully developed the product last year. It is mainly aimed at overseas markets."
"The production purpose of this car is to use the flexibility and strong power of the pickup truck to provide rescue for some small medical accidents."
"We found that the regulations on the use of ambulances in foreign countries are relatively loose, and ambulances can be used for all medical crises, but some problems do not need ambulances to solve, which has caused a waste of resources."
"So, our company launched an ambulance system between no ambulance and ambulance, the pickup medical vehicle."
Wang Bo looked at this glamorous car and said, "What can it do?"
The middle-aged man took him to take a closer look: "Let's look at the compartment first, this car does not provide patient transportation, its rear compartment is here is a portable battery pack, which can provide power for special medical tools, heavy lifting equipment or other rescue equipment. "
"The battery pack uses Leaf electric vehicle battery technology. Each of the seven Leaf battery modules is wrapped in a weatherproof aluminum casing. Each battery pack contains two input sockets and five output sockets, which can support multiple batteries at once. A rescue and ambulance incident."
