????它究竟是不是有史以來(lái)第一款四門(mén)轎跑,現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)難以考證了。當(dāng)年這種車(chē)型被稱(chēng)為“斜背式車(chē)身”。而在那個(gè)年代,大多數(shù)其它車(chē)型的后備箱都非常突出和顯眼,類(lèi)似中世紀(jì)歐洲婦女的長(zhǎng)裙,因裙子里加了裙撐,故而臀部部分高高隆起,因此那些車(chē)型又被稱(chēng)作“裙撐式車(chē)身”。與裙撐式車(chē)身相比,斜背式車(chē)身顯得更加圓潤(rùn)優(yōu)美。這款路王(Roadking)四門(mén)旅行轎車(chē)當(dāng)年的售價(jià)為740美元。1940年汽車(chē)市場(chǎng)還發(fā)生了另一件具有里程碑意義的事:普利茅斯(Plymouth)開(kāi)始生產(chǎn)雙門(mén)轎跑以及沒(méi)有后排座位的敞篷車(chē)。 |

????Was this the first four-door coupe? In those days, this was known as the "fastback body style," something a little sleeker than the bustle-back sedans with their visible trunks from that era. This Roadking 4-door touring sedan sold for $740. Another 1940 landmark: Plymouth started making coupes and convertibles without rumble seats. |
