2013年值得关注的13款明星车型

2014款别克昂克拉

    别克（Buick）宽敞的后排空间在中国可能已成为行业标准，但在美国，它的尺寸却正在变小。首先推出的是紧凑型轿车Verona，它是基于雪佛兰科鲁兹（Chevy Cruze）的平台开发的。现在推出的是昂克拉（Encore，2013款如上图所示），这款小巧的酷越车只比迷你库柏（Mini Cooper）长几英尺。用小型车来吸引年轻用户是别克品牌存活下来的关键所在，但此前的一些尝试（比如Skyhawk）的效果并不怎么鼓舞人心。较早发布的一些报告表明，胖乎乎的昂克拉需要增强动力，同时瘦身。

3. 2014 Buick Encore

    Buick's spacious backseats may be the industry standard in China, but in the U.S., its cars are getting smaller. First came the compact Verano sedan, based on the Chevy Cruze. Now comes the Encore (2013 pictured above), a tiny crossover just inches longer than a Mini Cooper. Using smaller cars to attract younger buyers is key to Buick's survival, but previous efforts (Skyhawk anyone?) haven't been encouraging. Early reports suggest the chunky Encore needs to power up and slim down.
