????1978版別克世紀(jì)(Buick Century)轎車(chē)的尺寸在原型車(chē)基礎(chǔ)有所縮短,并進(jìn)行了重新設(shè)計(jì),。它采用了與奧爾茲莫比爾短劍轎車(chē)(Olds Cutlass Salon)相同的斜背式四門(mén)轎跑設(shè)計(jì),,設(shè)計(jì)師們并不想把車(chē)身后部與車(chē)身其它部分整合到一起,因此這款轎跑的總體視覺(jué)效果更像是一臺(tái)掀背車(chē),,而不是斜背車(chē),。雖然通用汽車(chē)在70年代末的市場(chǎng)占有率仍然很高,但這款斜背式四門(mén)較跑的銷(xiāo)量并不出眾,。1980年,,這款轎車(chē)經(jīng)過(guò)重新設(shè)計(jì),車(chē)身變成了傳統(tǒng)的凹背式車(chē)身,。 |

????When the downsized, redesigned Century appeared, it came in the form of a fastback sedan, a body style that it shared with the Olds Cutlass Salon. Stylists made no attempt to integrate the rear end of the car with the rest of it, and the overall effect is more hatchback than fastback. Although GM was still riding high in the late `70s, the fastback sedan did not sell well and it was redesigned as a conventional notchback for 1980. |
