这几天在寝室等实习通知,闲得要跳楼,不如找点事情做做,来篇翻译习作吧,有空的大侠帮忙对对,翻的不好的地方请帮忙指出

Founded in 1968 by Giorgetto Giugiaro and Aldo Mantovani, the Italian design firm Italdesign has been involved with some of the most iconic designs of the past four decades, including the Audi 80, Lancia Delta, Saab 9000 Turbo and the Fiat Panda. The Quaranta concept shown at this year’s Geneva show illustrates the forward-looking design capabilities of the firm. This August also marks the 70th birthday of founder Giugiaro, so this year’s anniversary celebrations also honor the works that made the brand famous.
意大利的设计公司“意大利设计室”自1968年由乔盖托-乔治亚罗和阿多-曼托瓦尼建立以来,设计了这40年里一些最具标志性的作品,包括奥迪80, 蓝旗亚Delta, 萨博9000 Turbo 和菲亚特Panda。今年日内瓦车展上出现的Quaranta概念车展示了这家公司的前瞻性设计能力。今年八月同样也是他们的创立者乔治亚罗的70岁生日,因此今年的40周年纪念同时也是对那些使公司声名远扬的作品的赞誉。
Giugiaro himself has an even longer history in the industry than his firm, having worked for Fiat, Bertone and Ghia between 1955 and Italdesign’s startup in 1968. His designs have found their way onto the platforms of Alfa Romeos, BMWs, Maseratis, De Tomasos and even the Bizzarini GT Strada, among many others.
在设计业界,乔治亚罗本人则比他的公司有着更久的资历。从1955年到1968年成立“意大利设计室”,他曾为菲亚特,博通和吉亚工作。他的设计引领了这些公司在一系列车型平台的设计风格,包括阿尔法罗密欧,宝马,玛莎拉蒂,De Tomaso,甚至 Bizzarrini GT Strada 等等许多车型。
Building on the rich history of the company and its founders while taking the design and mechanical platform into the future, the Quaranta - Italian for ‘forty’ - is an environment-friendly 4WD sports car, which incorporates a series of innovative technologies including a hybrid engine with solar energy. The concept also features a mid-mounted engine and can accommodate three adults and one small child plus all their gear.
传承了公司和创始人们的光荣历史,并且采用了面向未来的外观设计和机械构造,Quaranta——在意大利语中指“四十”的意思——是一款环保型四轮驱动的运动车,其上应用了一系列独创性技术,包括可以利用太阳能的混合动力引擎。该款概念车采取中置引擎,可以容纳三名成人,一名幼儿和他们的全部行李。
Access to the cabin is via an upper door that incorporates a pair of smaller side ones. At the touch of an electric on/off button, the door opens upwards but in a downwind direction, regulated by proximity sensors. The door is hinged to the hood pillar and is aligned with a second upper rear door, for access to the engine compartment and boot.
进入驾驶室是通过上侧的车门,它和侧面一对较小的车门连在一起。通过触碰一个电子开关,车门顺风方向向上抬起,这一动作由近程式传感器控制。车门铰合在车顶的支柱上,和另一块用于进入发动机舱和行李舱的后侧车门连在一起。
Roof-mounted solar panels can generate a power of up to 250W, sufficient for the functioning of the cockpit conditioning system and for recharging the electric battery. The hybrid powertrain is a Toyota development, consisting of a 3.3L V6 petrol engine and two electric motors, which provide a maximum output of 200kW and 288Nm of torque. This is enough to propel the car from 0-100km/h in 4.05 seconds and a limited top speed of 250km/h. .
置于车顶的太阳能电池板可以产生高达250瓦的电能,这足以为驾驶室的空调系统供电,并且还能给车载的电池充电。混合动力模块采用了丰田的方案,由一个3.3L V6汽油引擎和两个电动机组成,最大可以发出200kW功率和288Nm扭矩。这使得Quaranta的0-100km/h加速时间仅有4.05,极速可达250km/h..
