Chapter 593

The engine of the taxi roared violently. It was an Indian-made Ambassador car.

The taxis in Mumbai are very distinctive. Taxi drivers like to paint inside the car, whether it is the inner wall, seat or armrest, except for the windows, they will be decorated with colorful patterns painted by the driver. It is said that there are many Indians. , will choose whether to take a car according to the pattern decoration inside the taxi.

As for the Ambassador car, this is a brand that has ruled India for half a century. This is an Indian domestic brand that began production in the 1950s. It used to serve as a courtesy car for the Queen of England, and later Indian officials Political dignitaries also ride in this kind of ambassador car.

For more than 50 years, the Ambassador brand car has been prosperous in India. Although the car has undergone some innovations, the appearance is still like a classic car, which is also a major feature of India. And this kind of car was not discontinued until 2014. The main reason for the discontinuation was that the Indian government promulgated new vehicle emission standards, and the Ambassador brand car not only consumed fuel, but also failed to meet the exhaust emission standards, so it was eliminated.

At this time, the taxi driver also recognized Zhang Guan. He made a very exaggerated expression and said, "Oh, you are Zhang Guan, you are the world champion Zhang Guan!"

"That's right, it's me, can you drive faster?" Zhang Guan obviously didn't care to admire the driver's graffiti in the car.

"No problem, I'm the fastest driver in Mumbai!" Although the taxi driver said so, the speed was still about the same as before, without any change.

"During the Olympic Games, I watched your game, you can run really fast!" The taxi said in curry-scented English, he seemed very talkative, completely unaware that Zhang Guan next to him was in a real hurry.

"Can you go faster?" Zhang Guan took out a Franklin card from his pocket while talking, and stuffed it into the taxi driver's pocket.

"No problem at all!" The taxi driver slammed on the gas pedal. Although the speed increased a bit, it was far from the level Zhang Guan expected.

Zhang Guan was really in a hurry, he took out all the money on his body, and then said: "Listen, I'll drive, you can show me the way, all the money belongs to you, how about it?"

The taxi driver looked at the money, stepped on the brakes without hesitation, and then signaled Zhang Guan to come to the driver's seat, because the money Zhang Guan took out was enough for him to buy a new car.

"Go forward, turn right after two intersections, and you will see a bridge, which is the only way to the airport." The taxi driver smiled and took the money, and then began to count them one by one.

Zhang Guan shifted into gear, stepped on the accelerator, and the taxi ran forward quickly.

Although the appearance of the Ambassador taxi looks like an old car, and the internal structure is indeed behind the times, the power of the engine is still good. After all, it is the technology provided by the UK, and it has been improving over the years. Although there is no turbocharger, once the engine with a displacement of more than 3 liters runs, the speed is really good.

For classic cars, it is normal for the engine to have a large displacement. For example, cars in the 1950s and 1960s, cars generally have six-cylinder or eight-cylinder water-cooled carburetor engines, with a displacement of more than 5 liters, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is definitely more than 20 liters. After a few dollars, the oil will be gone. In the 1970s and 1980s, although technology had improved, the displacement of cars was still much larger than it is now. Of course, the benefit of high fuel consumption is full horsepower.

In fact, many old engines may not meet the emission standards and consume more fuel, but as long as they are well maintained, the power may be much better than the current car engines, so we can often see Americans driving them in movies. Cars from the 1970s and 1980s are racing.

There were not many people on the road at this time, and due to the attack, many places were still under martial law. Otherwise, with the terrible traffic order in India, the car would start running at all, and the car might have to stop when it encountered a divine cow crossing the road halfway.

...

On the bridge, a black Jaguar XK is particularly conspicuous.

"Omi, your new car is not bad! It's very cool." A young man sitting in the co-pilot said.

"Of course, I bought this latest Jaguar XK with great difficulty. It is the first batch of goods in their factory. The 5.0L V8 supercharged engine is probably the only one in India!" The man named Omi paused, and then said: "If my uncle and people from Tata were not familiar, I would not have gotten this car so quickly."

"Yes, Jaguar Land Rover is now our Indian brand. Speaking of which, I really admire the Tata Group for directly acquiring the Jaguar Land Rover brand. I heard that Land Rover cars are quite good in foreign countries!" Said the young man on the co-pilot.

"Beep beep... beep beep..." The car horn sounded from behind, and after that, an ambassador's taxi rushed past them.

"That classic car is driving so fast! He actually overtook you!" The man in the co-pilot said with a smile.

Driving a Jaguar XK sports car was overtaken by an ambassador's taxi, and was also seen by his companions, Omi's heart was filled with anger.

"I just let him overtake on purpose, so that I can show the performance of my car! Just fasten your seat belt and wait for the show!" Omi snorted coldly, and rushed up with the gas pedal.

The 2009 Jaguar XK has a 5.0L V8 engine after all. Once this kind of professional sports car accelerates, it is obviously much faster than the classic car of the Ambassador brand. So in a blink of an eye, Jaguar caught up with the taxi, and then slammed With a twist, he got in front of the taxi.

"Don't you like overtaking? I'll block you right now. I don't believe that your broken car can overtake me!" Omi looked at the rearview mirror with a smug smile on his face.

...

"Beep...beep..." Zhang Guankuang honked his horn, but the Jaguar in front obviously blocked them on purpose to prevent the taxi from passing.

"This damn guy! It must be on purpose." Zhang Guan wished he could hit the accelerator, but his reason told him not to do so.

"With this delay, the plane might take off, and I won't be able to see Martha!" Zhang Guan frowned anxiously, and then found the racing skills in the system.

"Master-level overtaking skills! It's you!"
