图解:你开日本车,即使不是丰田,也有安全隐患(组图)

转帖一篇从网上看到的文章，帮助大家更好的看清日本车。 （一）丰田油门踏板的问题到底是怎么回事 丰田（Toyota ）因为突然加速并刹不住车而引发的“丰田安全危机”风暴席卷全球，目前我们知道丰田已经开始维修，就是在油门踏板上加一个铁片！为了说明到底是咋回事，我把从丰田网站上的图找来贴在这里，图内有部分解释，我让大家知道丰田加一个铁片的道理，也能明白丰田是靠改装这个玩意忽悠它的消费者，还是真的能解决问题。 图一：油门踏板，可以看出，丰田车用的两种油门踏板（一个是美国 CTS 公司造的，一个是日本 Denso 公司造的）外表是差不多的，看上去是可以互换的。 图二： CTS 油门踏板的工作原理。对不起，我写了错字。图中的“曹里”应该是“槽里”。这个设计是由丰田自己的工程师干的。别埋怨 CTS 。它的要命的地方在于： A 与 B 之间不能有空隙。这样，就容易“粘连”在一起。为何 CTS 给美国、德国等汽车制造厂生产的油门踏板就没问题？请看后面的解释您就明白了。 图三：丰田召回的 900 万辆车后，就是在那个地方加一个铁片。 图四：示意图。可看出铁片加的地方。对...

团购网站Groupon惊传开站一年营收达10亿

合購、團購已經是非常熱門的東西，許多點子現在集中在這一塊， 這星期，矽谷傳出有一間合購網站「Groupon」取得高達3000萬美元（台幣10億）的創投資金， 且順便透露好幾個關鍵數字──TechCrunch那篇文章才短短幾百字，卻吸引高達400則留言，因為大家都嚇了一大跳！ Groupon在今年初才開站，到了年中六月， 明明員工人數高達126人（這數字我看了三次確定沒看錯），竟然就已經損益兩平！ 明年，也就是他們開站第二年，營收將會達到高達5000萬美元（台幣15億）！ 注意，這個數字不是常被電子商務網站浮報的「成交金額」哦， 而是Groupon這個網站真正收到的錢，當然還沒扣除人事成本等等，但想必那部份以這麼大的營收來看， 5000萬美元至少50%可以進入口袋。它的主要收入來源不是廣告， 不是上架費，而是成交費，每一筆成交後要付某個比例給Groupon。 開站一年就營收15億台幣，怎麼可能？ Groupon在美國的競爭者至少就包括了BuyWithMe、Qponus、LivingSocial等， 如果還計入...
