艾德賽爾Citation敞篷車

????它是艾德賽爾系列中的佼佼者,。不過它的散熱格柵形如馬的項圈,，因此深受詬病，評論人士們稱這款轎車看起來就像“一臺奧爾茲（Oldsmobile）牌汽車嘴里叼著一顆檸檬”,。不過這款車的尾部采取了反尾鰭的尾燈設(shè)計,，尾燈一直貫穿了整個后備箱蓋,，相比之下，就連原本難看的散熱格柵也變得美觀起來,。

????再說說車的內(nèi)部,。這款轎車采用了按鍵式的檔位控制，檔位被整合進(jìn)了方向盤輪彀里——這又是一個沒有人肯去模仿的設(shè)計,，因為駕駛員老是分不清哪個是檔位,，哪個是喇叭。Citation轎車的品味之差可謂空前絕后,。福特推出1959年版之后不久便果斷地終結(jié)了艾德賽爾這個品牌,。

Edsel Citation convertible

????The top-of-the-line Edsel, it bore the notorious "horse-collar" grille that critics said resembled "an Oldsmobile sucking on a lemon." Actually, the grille looked tasteful compared to the anti-tailfin taillights that stretched all the way across the trunk lid.

????Inside, the push-button transmission control was located inside the steering-wheel hub -- another rarely imitated design feature because drivers confused it with the horn. The Citation is the landmark of bad taste. Ford put Edsel out of its misery shortly after the start of the 1959 model year
