Model T
/ˌmɒdl ˈtiː/
/ˌmɑːdl ˈtiː/
- the first car produced on an assembly line (= a line of workers who build something as it moves along on a large belt) and sold at a price that ordinary people could afford. Its popular name was the 'Tin Lizzie' and it was made by the Ford Motor Company between 1908 and 1927. There is a joke that Henry Ford told customers they could have the car in any colour as long as it was black. About 15 million Model Ts were produced before it was replaced by the Model A.
T型车:第一条在装配线上生产的汽车(这是一群工人在大皮带上移动时制造东西)并以普通百姓买得起的价格出售。它的流行名称是“ Tin Lizzie”,它是福特汽车公司在1908年至1927年之间制造的。有个笑话,亨利·福特告诉客户,只要它是黑色的,就可以用任何颜色的汽车。在被Model A取代之前,生产了大约1500万辆ModelT。
