Gli Italiani Scelgono Sempre Pi

Ma cos’è un fuoristrada?

Semplicemente un particolare tipo di veicolo a motore dotato di soluzioni tecniche e strutturali che lo rendono іn grado di percorrere con estrema facilità e sicurezza terreni accidentati, ad рlасе οn a platform pendenze oppure con manti con scarsa aderenza (pioggia, neve, ghiaccio, ghiaia, etc.).

In particolar modo, le tecnologie e caratteristiche principali che caratterizzano i fuoristrada ed i 4×4 sono:

- Trazione integrale: inseribile manualmente oppure presente іn modo permanente che conferisce al veicolo maggior trazione su fondi innevati, bagnati e sdrucciolevoli

- Differenziale: con varie possibilità – anteriore, posteriore o centrale – con sistema bloccabile oppure autobloccante

- Altezza da terra superiore rispetto ai normali autoveicoli stradali іn modo da superare con maggior facilità ostacoli di ogni genere e ridurre i contatti con terreni sconnessi

- Carrozzeria rinforzata con telaio che conferisce maggior resistenza agli urti e alle sollecitazioni provocate da strade dissestate

- Alimentazione motore e prese d’aria sollevate e poste più іn alto rispetto alle posizioni “normali” per evitare l’ingresso di acqua nel caso іn cui si affrontasse un corso d’acqua

- Pneumatici scolpiti іn profondità al fine di migliorare l’aderenza іn situazioni di fondi fangosi, viscidi o friabili

- Riduzione dei rapporti di cambio, per gestire al meglio la potenza del motore nelle salite e discese con dislivelli elevati.

Alcuni cenni storici

Il primo veicolo presentato con tutte queste caratteristiche, anche se alcuni impieghi della trazione integrale erano già stati adoperati dalla Mitsubishi (PX33 / GAZ-61), è stato la Statunitense JEEP durante la seconda guerra mondiale. Da qui, la consuetudine di utilizzare il termine Jeep come sinonimo di Fuoristrada 4×4.

Normative Europee al riguardo

Nella nuova normativa Europea i fuoristrada sono stati classificati sia nella categoria internazionale “M” (per il trasporto di persone) sia nella categoria “N” (quella dedicata al trasporto di “cose” per esempio autocarri).

Dopo questa doverosa introduzione al mondo dei fuoristrada, parliamo del boom che hanno avuto negli ultimi anni soprattutto іn Italia. Infatti sempre più spesso sulle autostrade e nelle città italiane si vedono suv, fuoristrada e crossover con dotazioni 4×4.

Anche se l’uso іn fuoristrada di questi mezzi è sempre più ridotto, la clientela apprezza di questi modelli soprattutto le caratteristiche di solidità costruttiva e di sicurezza, la posizione di guida rialzata, il comfort e lo spazio dell’abitacolo, la capacità di carico che li accomunano ai monovolume e alle station car, per non parlare poi della tenuta del valore dell’usato nel tempo. Per la scelta del proprio suv o veicolo fuoristrada ideale basta consultare le apposite verify su strada.

Inoltre, i fuoristrada e i Suv si prestano meglio di altre categorie di auto, per la loro versatilità e robustezza, ad un uso ideale nel tempo libero: dalle gite fuori porta con tutta la famiglia, ai week-еnd іn montagna sulla neve, fino ai viaggi e vacanze avventura anche su terreni e strade poco agibili, dove il divertimento è garantito.
