AZUZ: Well, this is a new spin on all-terrain¹ vehicle. Take a smart car, add skis and all terrain threads and you have a snowmobile, with doors and heat.

这是关于全地形车辆的一个新点子，找一辆智能汽车，添加滑雪板和所有地形线程，然后你就拥有了一辆机动雪橇，带有门和热源。

This is the brainchild of a mechanic in Canada, where there`s plenty of reason to do this. He says it took him about a month and $7,000 to put together. And when the snow melts, the wheels can go back on in about an hour.

这是加拿大一名机械师的创意，这样做有充足的理由。他表示这耗费他一个月的时间，总共花费7,000 美元。当冰雪融化时，依靠轮子回去大约一个小时。

Now, you can`t have one. It`s not street legal, but if it were, a dealer² might advertise its snow roof, its performance ski-dometer, its unparalleled anti-freeze, or its unlimited³ slip differential. Air conditioning not standard.

现在，你不可能拥有一辆。因为这款车不可以在街道上行驶。如果可以，经销商可能会宣传其雪顶，其可以滑雪、记录里程的性能，它无可比拟的防冻功能，或者它的防滑差速器。空调没有规定。
