That the cars of the future will be electric-powered is now inevitable. Whether they will retain the design signatures of the petrol-driven models that preceded them is still yet to be seen. Electric offerings from luxury stalwarts are only just beginning to appear. Though Mercedes, Porsche and Audi had EV models for 2021, Ferrari, Maserati, Bentley, Lamborghini and McLaren’s first full electrics won’t be available until 2025 or beyond (ahead of the 2030 ban on the sale of all petrol and diesel-powered cars in the UK). Early promotional materials for new cars – the Rolls-Royce Spectre and Maserati’s GranTurismo, for example – point to the continuation of a design language that maintains the brand’s signature look. This is a good sign.
未來的汽車將是電力驅(qū)動(dòng)的,這是不可避免的。他們是否會(huì)保留之前的汽油驅(qū)動(dòng)車型的設(shè)計(jì)特征還有待觀察。豪華汽車的電動(dòng)產(chǎn)品才剛剛開始出現(xiàn)。盡管梅賽德斯、保時(shí)捷和奧迪將在2021年推出電動(dòng)汽車,但法拉利、瑪莎拉蒂、賓利、蘭博基尼和邁凱輪的首款全電動(dòng)汽車要到2025年或更晚(趕在英國2030年禁止銷售所有汽油和柴油車之前)才會(huì)上市。勞斯萊斯幽靈(Rolls-Royce Spectre)和瑪莎拉蒂(Maserati)的GranTurismo等新車的早期宣傳材料表明,它們延續(xù)了一種設(shè)計(jì)語言,保持了該品牌的標(biāo)志性外觀。這是一個(gè)好兆頭。
