　　新加坡：自动售货机可买豪车

　　Singapore 'vending machine' dispenses Ferraris, Lamborghinis

　　Forget about soft drinks and potato chips - a "vending machine" in Singapore is offering up luxury vehicles, including Bentleys, Ferraris and Lamborghinis.

　　忘记那些售卖软饮和薯片的自动售货机吧——新加坡一台“自动售货机”提供豪车售卖服务，品牌包括宾利、法拉利和兰博基尼。

　　客户可以通过一楼的触摸显示屏选择他们想要看的车。公司表示，在一套先进的汽车检索系统支持下，选中的车型会在一两分钟内来到客户面前。

　　Gary Hong, general manager at Autobahn Motors, said the vending machine format was aimed at making efficient use of space in land-scarce Singapore as well as standing out from the competition.
