“新甲殼蟲之父”汽車設(shè)計杰作回顧
|
2005款福特五百 ????梅斯在五百身上采用了風(fēng)格迥異的實用主義手法。這輛車隆起的車身下是深陷的內(nèi)飾和大得能裝下六個高爾夫球袋的后備箱，但它卻沒有什么能激發(fā)購買者熱情的亮點。梅斯為此勇?lián)?zé)任，他對《汽車設(shè)計和生產(chǎn)》（ Automotive Design and Production）雜志表示：“它就是缺乏感染力。因為我們都很注重團(tuán)隊合作，結(jié)果就搞出了這么一輛因為妥協(xié)而四平八穩(wěn)的車。不過我們再也不會犯這種錯誤了。在我這輩子設(shè)計過的所有車型中，我很后悔沒在這輛車上更堅持自己的主張?！?/p> |
2005 Ford Five Hundred ????Mays took an uncharacteristic turn toward the utilitarian in the Five Hundred, whose bloated shape enclosed a cavernous interior and trunk big enough for six golf bags but did little to excite buyer passions. Mays took the heat, telling Automotive Design and Production: "It's just lacking in the emotional appeal. We were being good team players, and we ended up with a car that compromised itself in terms of style. But we will never make that mistake again. Of all the cars I've designed in my career, I regret not pushing harder on that car." |
