中國Nio的EP9電動超跑創下紐博格林賽道記錄

The quickest street-legal car to lap the Nürburgring is electric.

刷新紐博格林賽道記錄的街道跑車(相較於賽道跑車，street-legal指符合燈光、安全等規定可上路的車輛)是電動的。

The Nio EP9 an electric supercar built by Chinese startup NextEV lapped the famous German racetrack in just 6 minutes 45.90 seconds. That’s a substantial improvement over the 6:52.01 set by the Lamborghini Huracán LP640-4 Performante last fall. But because just 16 copies of the EP9 will be built some will likely consider the Lambo’s lap time to be more meaningful as a yardstick for production cars.

由中國人創辦的蔚來汽車生產的電動超跑Nio EP9在著名的德國賽道上跑出了單圈6分45.90秒的成績。這相比去年秋天由蘭博基尼颶風LP640-4創下的6:52.01記錄是一個顯著提升。但因為EP9只生產16台，有些人可能會認為蘭博基尼的記錄對量產汽車更有意義。

This is actually the second time the EP9 has visited the Nürburgring. Last fall it set a lap time of 7:05.12. Nio said the 19.22-second improvement was achieved thanks to better weather conditions on the second attempt.

實際上這是EP9第二次拜訪紐博格林。去年秋天它取得過單圈7:05.12的成績。蔚來公司稱第二次試跑成績提高了19.22秒是因為更好的天氣狀況。

The EP9 is powered by four electric motors producing a combined 1342 horsepower. While Nio won’t quote a 0 to 60 mph time it claims the EP9 can do 0 to 200 kph (0 to 124 mph) in 7.1 seconds and reach a top speed of 124 mph. The supercar also features an “interchangeable battery system” that allows charging in 45 minutes an estimated range of 265 miles and autonomous-driving capability.

EP9由四台獨立電機驅動，一共可提供1342馬力動力。蔚來公司沒有提供其0到60英里時速的加速時間，但聲稱EP9可在7.1秒內加速至最高時速200公里(0到時速124英里)。“可置換電池系統”也是該超跑一大特色，該系統下充電45分鐘續航可達265英里，還具備自動駕駛能力。
