12大豪車旗艦車型大盤點

大眾輝騰：黯淡的旗艦

????輝騰（Phaeton）2004年到2006年間在美國賣得并不成功，不過這款車型還在一直生產，而且不久后還會重返美國。據傳在大眾汽車（VW）總裁馬丁?文德恩的堅持下，大眾將在明年1月的底特律車展上展出2015款輝騰。文德恩認為，像大眾這樣受歡迎的品牌需要一款旗艦車型。輝騰在首次公開亮相時受到了評測者的好評，也被視為是一項價值投資。但是新輝騰與大眾其它車型之間巨大的價格鴻溝應該如何銜接，現在還沒有答案，這也是上一次就給輝騰的銷量造成了麻煩的問題。

Volkswagen Phaeton: Tarnished flagship

????Less a sales success in the U.S. during its run from 2004 to 2006, the Phaeton nevertheless has remained in production since then and now will be returning to America. Industry scuttlebutt has VW unveiling a 2015 model making a debut in January at the Detroit auto show -- at the insistence of Chairman Martin Winterkorn, who has declared that a brand as popular as VW needs a flagship vehicle. The Phaeton was well-reviewed in its debut appearance and was viewed as a value play. How the new car will bridge the still-yawning price gap with the rest of VW's product line -- a major stumbling block the first time around -- is yet to be determined.
