Kutheni ungayithathi imoto yakho yaseYurophu eYurophu? (Ifoto: Verónica Grech) TIngcinga epholileyo yokuhambisa imoto yakho yaseYurophu ngaphakathi, ke, iYurophu, ineengcambu zayo kwii-1950s, xa i-servicemen yase-US (yayingu-Elvis Presley phakathi kwabo?) Yazisa ezinye iimoto ezingaqhelekanga nezemidlalo kubuya kukhenketho lomsebenzi. Bebona ithuba, iMercedes, iVolvo, iSaab kunye nabanye basungula iinkqubo ezisesikweni ezazisusa ngeminyaka yoo-1960.
Ukhetho lokunikezelwa kwezitshixo eMunich, Ingolstadt, Sindelfingen okanye IGothenburg endaweni yomthengisi wasekhaya isekhona, kwaye nangona ingaziwa njengokuba yayiyiminyaka engama-50 eyadlulayo sisivumelwano esingcono kunakuqala. I-euro ixabisa nje kancinane kuneedola, yaye unokuncamathisela ikhefu elinendleko eziphantsi — kungekho mfuneko yemoto eqeshisayo enexabiso eliphakamileyo — ekupheleni kwempahla. Okokugqibela, ulahla imoto yakho ukuze ithunyelwe (ilungiswe ngu-automaker), kwaye kwiiveki ezili-10 ukuya kwezi-13 kamva ise-U.S.
Ngokuka-Sam Abuelsamid, umhlalutyi ophando ophezulu kwi-Navigant Research, Uninzi lwezi nkqubo zizinto ezilungileyo ngokwenene, ngakumbi ngenxa yamandla edola ngokuchasene ne-euro. Ukuba ungumthandi wophawu oluthengayo, ukuthatha ukuhanjiswa kuthetha ukuba uya kuba nethuba elihle lokutyelela umzi-mveliso ukhenketho okanye ubone imyuziyam yohlobo. Unokwazi nokubona eyakho imoto idityanisiwe ukuba unokuyenza ngexesha elifanelekileyo.
Iicarmaker ziyayiphucula intengiso kunye nezaphulelo. UStephen Williams waseQueens ngewayethabathe i-BMW 128i yakhe kwindawo athengisa kuyo eLong Island nge-35,250 yeedola, kodwa ixabiso laseYurophu lalingama-31,695 eedola kuphela. Ndaphathwa njengobukhosi mhla ndandiseMunich, utshilo uMnu. Isidlo sakusasa seBuffet kunye nevawutsha yesidlo sasemini.
IMercedes inikezela ukuya kuthi ga kwipesenti ezisixhenxe kwixabiso eliphakanyisiweyo lokuthengisa imoto (i-MSRP), iBMW 7.3 ukuya kwi-7.4 yepesenti kunye ne-Audi ukuya kuthi ga kwiipesenti ezi-5.

Umnumzana Williams kuye kwafuneka athenge amatikiti enqwelomoya ukuze athathe i-BMW yakhe, kodwa nalapho ngekuyekisiwe ukuba waye wathenga i-Volvo-inkampani iphosa amatikiti eenqwelo-moya zasimahla zokuya nokubuya eGothenburg, isixeko sesibini ngobukhulu eSweden. Isaphulelo sikaVolvo yi-1 ukuya kwi-2 yepesenti kwi-MSRP, kwaye isivumelwano sikwabandakanya neerhafu zokurhoxa ezirhoxisiweyo. Le perk yokugqibela iyangqinwa ngabanye abavelisi, efikelela kwi-945 ukuya kwi-995 yexabiso kwimeko kaVolvo. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba iVolvo inokuba kuphela kophawu lokubonelela ngephakeji ebanzi, utshilo isithethi sikaRussell Datz.
Ixabiso lokuthenga lihamba kakhulu, kodwa abathengi be-savvy banakho ukuxoxisana ngezaphulelo ezifanayo kumthengisi wendawo. Umnumzana Williams uthi ulondolozo lokwenyani olusuka phesheya kolwandle luyafezekiswa ukuba ucwangcisa iholide yaseYurophu emva kokuthatha imoto. Ukuqeshisa i-3-Series eYurophu iiveki ezimbini kuya kuqhuba kumakhulu, ukuba kungangamawaka, eedola, utshilo. Nawuphi na umthengisi weBMW phaya uya kukuxelela ukuba yeyona nto inomtsalane.
UJack Nerad, umhlalutyi wentengiso ku Kelley Blue Book, uyavuma. Ndingumlandeli omkhulu weenkqubo zokuhanjiswa kweYurophu, ngakumbi ngexabiso leemoto eziqeshisayo eYurophu ngophahla, utshilo. Ukuqesha i-BMW 3-Series ukusuka kwi-Auto Yurophu kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya iStuttgart kunye nokuyigcina iiveki ezimbini kungabiza i-937.08 yeedola kwinqanaba elibandakanyayo, ngokwesicatshulwa esikwi-Intanethi.
Ukuhanjiswa kweYurophu kufuna ukucwangciswa kwangaphambili; I-Audi, umzekelo, ifuna abathengi ukuba babeke iodolo yabo yemoto ye-U.S. Kwiinyanga ezintathu okanye ezine ngaphambi kokuba baye eYurophu. Kukho isixa esifanelekileyo sephepha elibandakanyekayo.
Iinkqubo ziyafana kwinto abayinikelayo-i-inshurensi kwiimoto ngelixa baseYurophu ziqhelekileyo, umzekelo-nangona izinto ezizodwa ziyahluka. Ukuhambisa ngenqanawa eMelika kuhlala kubandakanywa, kunye neziganeko ezinje ngokuqhubekeka kwezibuko kunye nentlawuliso yesiko. IMercedes iyalinga ngobusuku kwihotele ebutofotofo yaseStuttgart, ukhenketho lwefektri eSindelfingen ekufuphi xa uthatha imoto yakho, amatikiti kwimyuziyam yenkampani eyoyikekayo, amatikiti eteksi okukhwela kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya, kunye nokutya kwindawo yokuhambisa.
I-BMW izisa imoto yakho kuwe kwisinyusi seglasi, emva koko uyijikeleze kwindawo ejikelezayo. I-Porsche yenza umzi-mveliso (ngesidlo sasemini kwigumbi lokudlela le-VIP), imyuziyam, kwaye iphose utyelelo ePorsche Boutique. Abakwa-Audi bathengisa amatikiti eteksi ngothutho oluqhutywa ngenqwelo-mafutha (kwiAudi!) Kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya okanye isikhululo sikaloliwe, kwaye ineendawo ezili-17 ezilahlayo eYurophu.
Inkampani yeRoll-Royce ibonelela nge-bespoke Inkqubo. Inkampani ithi ngobulumko, Ungayiqokelela eyakho IRolls-Royce ngokobuqu ukusuka ekhaya eGoodwood, eNgilani. Isithethi uGerry Spahn uthe amanye amaqhezu abathengi athatha izitshixo zawo eNgilane, apho banokufumana khona umsitho wokunikezela, badibane nabayili kwaye batyelele umzi-mveliso. Abambalwa emva koko babhabha iimoto ezindlwini zabo, utshilo uMnu Spahn.
Ezinye iimveliso zodidi onokuzilindela ukuba zibe neenkqubo zokuhambisa zaseYurophu, musa. UStuart Schorr, usekela-mongameli wezonxibelelwano eJaguar, uthe inkampani ayinayo inkqubo esemthethweni yokuhanjiswa kweYurophu. Udade inkampani iLand Rover ibonelela ngezikolo zokuqhuba e-UK
Akukho zibonda zininzi malunga nezi nkqubo, nangona kufanele ukuba kuboniswe ukuba ukukhangela ibhokisi kukhetho lokuhamba kuya kuba luncedo olukhulu kwiindlela ezingaqhelekanga zaseYurophu. Kwaye abanini abambalwa bathi babhabhela eYurophu kwaye bahanjiswa imoto eyayingeyiyo le bayiyalayo. Kunzima ukuyilungisa ngelixa uhleli kwigumbi lokuhambisa kwaye ufuna imoto ngoko nangoko.
Kwaye kukho ixabiso lokuba ngumthengi ophindayo waseYurophu. Umntu othanda iBMW wafumana ibhotile kaDom Pérignon esiqwini sentengo yakhe yesihlanu yokuthenga.
