如果你问一个汽车设计师为什么选择这份职业,多数情况下得到的答案是因为狂迷。如果你问他们什么样的车是他们最想去参与设计的,他们八成会说:跑车,快!型!快到摆脱万有引力,当然那是句玩笑话。Frank Stephenson也不例外。这个曾经设计过新Mini和菲亚特500的汽车设计师,目前效力于因F1赛车而闻名的英国公司麦克拉伦,由他操刀设计的麦克拉伦新一代超跑MP4-12C近日揭开面纱。MP4-12C是一款由单体碳纤维板制成的车,并且配备了独特的底盘、引擎、变速器以及悬挂系统。“对一个汽车设计师来说,这是我们孩童时代的梦想,”Stephenson说,“设计这款车的过程简直像到了天堂。”
If you ask a car designer why choose this occupation, in most cases the answer is because of fanaticism. If you ask them what kind of car they most want to participate in the design, they will say: Bicycles, fast! Type! Getting rid of gravitation, of course, that is a joke. Frank Stephenson is no exception. The former car designer who designed the new Mini and the Fiat 500 is currently playing for the British company McLaren, known for his Formula One car racing game. The new McLaren Supercar MP4-12C, which he designed for his car, was recently unveiled. The MP4-12C is a car made from a single carbon fiber board and comes with a unique chassis, engine, transmission and suspension system. “For a car designer, this is our childhood dream,” Stephenson said. “The process of designing this car is almost like going to heaven.” "
