Technology overlord starts with new energy vehicles

New car, looks great inside and out.

It's just that the taxi meter and empty lights are installed, and the originally luxurious West Lake in Kyushu seems a bit out of place with the original interior.

But these were not problems. When Chen Hongfei drove out of the vehicle management office, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.

Usually at this time, it should be time to hand over the shift.

The day shift hours of taxis are generally from six or seven o'clock in the morning to around five o'clock in the afternoon.

The night shift hours are from four or five o'clock in the afternoon to one or two in the morning.

A taxi, driven by two master drivers.

Some master drivers, for a certain fee, rent a taxi for half the time to make money.

There are also people like Chen Hongfei who buy a car and drive it by themselves, and then rent it out to others to earn a certain amount of income during the night shift when they are tired and unable to drive.

But today, because the old car is scrapped and the new car is licensed, it is estimated that it will take a whole day to deal with this matter. Yesterday, I made an agreement with the car rental master in advance that I will not be able to work normally today.

And because Chen Hongfei went earlier and queued up at the front, it was still very early when everything was done.

There is no need to change cars, so I just drive this Kyushu Automobile that has just completed the relevant procedures by myself, and take a walk outside, and I can earn a little bit!

And you can also test the specific driving experience of this Kyushu car.

After being told by the young man before, Chen Hongfei was a little curious about the specific performance of this car.

Although a taxi doesn't necessarily need the power of a supercar, it's one thing to have it, and another to have it.

The power can be stronger, and the replacement of electricity can be cheaper than refilling, which is what everyone expects.

The Kyushu West Lake painted by the taxi drove out of the vehicle management office and drove onto the road. With the increase of speed, compared with the previous speed of 10 to 20 in the vehicle management office, the total driving distance was only one to two hundred meters. there is a big difference.

In addition to the huge difference between the seat and the old Volkswagen Jetta, other details of the driving vehicle are also continuously transmitted through the body senses.

"In terms of chassis, it is much better than the previous car!"

"The suspension system is also better, and the texture of the ride is not comparable to the old Jetta."

After a careful look, it is still worthy of the driving experience of a car with a normal price of more than 300,000 yuan, and even some aspects are even better.

In addition to the driving experience, there is also the driving experience of the vehicle.

"I couldn't feel it in the vehicle management office just now, but now it is driving normally on the road, and the power performance is really good!"

"In terms of power performance, as long as you step on the accelerator, the car will continue to accelerate, and you won't feel the slightest loss of power at all."

"And the transmission speed of the power is not like some models with automatic transmission of fuel, there is a little bit of sluggishness, the accelerator is very sensitive, and you can feel the acceleration of the car immediately when you step on it."

"In terms of smoothness, there is no frustration of shifting gears in ordinary fuel vehicles, not at all!"

"It's obviously a B-class car that's a lot bigger than the old Jetta, but it doesn't have the clumsy feeling of driving a big car. Instead, it's quite flexible to drive because of the power and precise steering wheel pointing!"

"All in all, it's very cool to drive, much better than any fuel car I've driven before!"

There is no harm without comparison. Chen Hongfei was quite satisfied with the old Volkswagen Jetta before.

But now with a specific comparison, in terms of power performance, the old Jetta of 1.6 in the past can only have a displacement power of 1.4 or even less because of burning CNG gas.

Although taxis sometimes seem to run very fast, the main reason is that the manual transmission can increase the speed at low gears, as long as you are willing to refuel

But now in West Lake, Kyushu, in terms of power performance and driving quality, etc., Chen Hongfei has driven those fuel cars before.

It even made him feel that if he was used to driving a Kyushu car, he might not be able to go back to a fuel car!

"This car feels really good to drive, but how much does it cost to repair such a car, suspension system, and shock absorption system?"

"I still hope it will be more durable. The previous Volkswagen Jetta is cheap to repair, which is also an important reason for choosing it as a taxi."

For those better vehicles, with the high-intensity driving of taxis, the aging and wear of parts such as shock absorbers, spark plugs, half-axis ball cages, tires and other parts are inevitable, and frequent maintenance is required. The maintenance parts of good cars are higher , can not afford to repair is also a problem.

The chassis suspension and driving texture of the new car are all remarkable. Compared with the previous car, it is completely different.

Then, in terms of power system, the front acceleration is very sensitive, as long as the accelerator is slightly stepped on, the speed of the car will immediately increase.

In terms of high-speed acceleration in the rear section, Chen Hongfei couldn't detect the upper limit of this car on normal urban roads.

"According to what the young man said before, the supercar-level power should be very cool."

"There is still time, how about going to Chengnan Avenue to try it?!"

Chengnan Avenue is a development area built in Ziyang City in the last two years.

There is a two-way six-lane road that has just been built, a total of about two to three kilometers, and because the end of the road is not connected to the rest of the road, it is a dead end road.

In addition, there are no residents living there, and there are no businesses or factories, so there are very few motor vehicles driving on that road now.

Such road conditions are very good for testing vehicle performance.

There are often some people who test the performance of the vehicle, and they will go there.

"It's about five kilometers away from the main urban area. The remaining power of West Lake in Kyushu can still drive 520 kilometers according to the mileage displayed on the meter."

"Turn around in the past, there shouldn't be any problem."

Lifting the empty headlights, Chen Hongfei drove on the road at a slightly slower speed.

While heading towards the destination, customers who did not give up on the ride, at most, they will try again next time they have the opportunity.

On the way, passing a few traffic lights, Chen Hongfei felt more about this new car.

"After all, it is a car with automatic transmission. It is no longer necessary to step on the clutch to change gears as before."

"I still feel a little uncomfortable for a while, but this is driving. It used to be for life..."

Although Chen Hongfei and other taxi drivers are already used to driving with manual transmission.

But now I don’t need to constantly increase or decrease gears at traffic lights or when speeding up, it feels very cool!

Manual transmission and automatic transmission. Although the automatic transmission model is easier to drive and saves effort, as a taxi, the mileage is about 100,000 kilometers a year.

Daily high-intensity car use, the previous automatic transmission is more prone to problems than manual transmission, and the maintenance cost is more expensive and complicated than manual transmission models.

Therefore, they are basically models with manual transmission, the structure is simple and stable, and the maintenance is relatively simple.

However, this Kyushu Automobile Factory electric vehicle does not have a gearbox component.

For electric vehicles, I don't know how durable they will be.

"Not to mention the battery, this is none of our business, it is the responsibility of the battery company, so don't worry about the problem of expensive replacement of the battery after it has been used for a long time."

"The Dongfang Electric Power Company is said to be a state-owned enterprise similar to PetroChina, so there should be no such thing as running away."

"In addition to the battery, the car's electronic control system and motor, as well as some in-car electronic systems, I don't know how it compares to the engine and gearbox, whether you like it or not."

Durable, durable, durable, as a taxi, this is a very important key point.

The car drove two kilometers, and when it was about to enter Chengnan Avenue, a passenger on the side of the road looked at a taxi that was obviously different from the old Jetta, hesitated and waved to stop the taxi.

Chen Hongfei lightened the brakes, Kyushu West Lake docked firmly next to the passenger, and the windows were lowered.

This passenger, who saw such a taxi for the first time, looked carefully at West Lake in Kyushu.

Compared with the previous Volkswagen Jetta, this car is a full circle bigger.

From the luxurious and handsome, technological daytime running lights, to the body lines, etc., it all reveals a sense of luxury.

Coupled with the interior of the car seen through the car window, the passengers are a little unconfident!

After a moment of hesitation, the passenger still asked, "Master, are you a taxi?"

Chen Hongfei said with certainty: "Yes, that is, this is a taxi!"

After hearing Chen Hongfei's affirmative answer, the passenger opened the door and sat in.

As soon as they got in the car, just like Chen Hongfei before, the passengers looked at this brand new taxi curiously.

In addition to the empty lights and taximeters for taxis, which seem a little out of place with the vehicle, the interior of the car is quite luxurious, even better than the luxury cars produced by other car companies in 2010!

The passenger, who was more interested in the vehicle, couldn't help asking aloud.

"Master, this car looks good. The exterior and interior are much more luxurious than the old Jetta taxis before."

"I couldn't believe it was a taxi just now, and I thought it was some kind of messy body painting."

"What kind of car is this? I haven't seen it before. I've read a lot of car-related knowledge, but I haven't seen this car."

Chen Hongfei replied: "You said this car, it's called Kyushu West Lake, and it's a car produced by Kyushu Automobile Company in Jiangzhou City."

"Well, where are you going?" As soon as the passengers got on the bus, they just chatted without saying where they were going!

However, the passengers didn't seem to hear Chen Hongfei's question.

Instead, he said with some excitement: "Jiangzhou City, Kyushu Automobile? That, the car company that produced the Kyushu Suzaku, Kyushu Dongting and Taishan models?!"

Speaking of this Kyushu Automobile, this passenger knew more about it than Chen Hongfei before him.

"That's right, it's the Kyushu Automobile, but this is not a previous model, it seems to be a new model that came out recently."

Hearing Chen Hongfei's acknowledgment, the passenger listened carefully again: "Speaking of which, I really didn't hear the sound of the engine, nor did I feel the vibration when the car started. This is really the electric car of Kyushu Automobile. ah!"

"Hmm, by the way, where are you going?" Chen Hongfei asked again helplessly, he couldn't park the car on the side of the road, let's leave after the chat is over!

Passenger: "Well, you can drive casually first. It is best to try this car. It is said that several previous Kyushu cars accelerate from 0 to 100 in less than three seconds. It is rare to see it on the road. You must experience it!"

"I read the previous news. Kyushu Suzaku broke the New North Circuit record. Even the Kyushu Dongting and Taishan laps are supercar-level. I don't know the specific power system of this Kyushu West Lake?"

"According to the information in the vehicle manual and what the company told us, this car has the same power system as Kyushu Dongting and Kyushu Taishan."

"The same power system, an electric supercar?!" The eyes of the passenger lit up, and it seemed that they liked the car very much.

"Then how about this, master, isn't this next to the industrial park, let's go and try how the acceleration of this car is."

This idea just coincides with Chen Hongfei's previous goal. To be able to test the car in detail, and to carry passengers to make money, why not do it!

The vehicle drove to the destination set by Chen Hongfei before, and the passenger sat on the co-pilot, and was amazed again: "The driving texture, riding experience, and the space performance of the ride..."

Just like Chen Hongfei and others, they can immediately feel the difference of the car!

It took a while for the passengers to recover from the amazing ride experience.

"Not only the power performance, but even the exterior and interior, the ride experience is no worse than those luxury cars, not to mention the supercar-level power system..."

"Before, I was more interested in several models of Kyushu Automobile. I was able to use the domestically produced car in New North, and even broke the track record."

"The only pity is that this is an electric car. It is very inconvenient to charge it at my home. According to the news from Kyushu Automobile, it will take a long time to charge it at home, which is also a troublesome place."

"I haven't had the opportunity to try it before. I didn't expect that even taxis now use Kyushu's electric vehicles."

Chen Hongfei finally found a chance to interject: "We didn't think about it either, in fact, if we had a choice, we still don't want this car...

Although it seems that the exterior and interior are very good, but you also know that these are not the most important things when used as a taxi. "

Passengers were slightly moved: "Domestic cars, the quality is indeed a problem. Lifan Motors, Zotye Automobiles, Geely Automobiles, etc., are indeed much worse than joint venture cars in terms of quality."

Kyushu Auto shuttled flexibly in the traffic flow, heading for the road with few vehicles.

Passengers, still keep touching this new car around.

"The co-pilot adjustment is actually electric. It's interesting. The large central control screen is much more luxurious than cars like Honda and Toyota. The crystal gear knob is so beautiful..."

Later, he asked Chen Hongfei again, "Master, how does this car drive?"

Chen Hongfei told his true feelings: "It feels good to drive. It is much better than the previous car. I think it is better to drive than those cars that burn oil. The accelerator is very close to the foot. As long as you step on it, the power will continue to drive. A steady stream."

"It's so different from the old Jetta, it even gave me a sense of enjoyment, and I won't suffer so much when driving in the future, especially when I encounter traffic lights or traffic jams during rush hour!"

While the two were talking, the vehicle drove on a wide road.

On the road, there are fewer and fewer other vehicles.

Especially after driving another kilometer and entering the dead end road, hundreds of meters ahead, there are no other vehicles in sight!

Chen Hongfei pressed his finger on the button of the vehicle that he had studied carefully during the waiting process, the energy-saving mode was changed to the sports mode, and the LCD instrument changed from green representing energy saving to red for fighting.

Chen Hongfei stepped on the accelerator pedal even harder.

Buzz buzz———

The sound of the motor running suddenly increased a bit, and it could be heard more clearly even in the car with good sound insulation.

The feeling reflected on the two of them was that the body was firmly fixed on the seat by the acceleration.

Push back feeling, this is it!

In the West Lake of Kyushu, the speed increased to an incredible speed in just a few seconds.

Almost in the blink of an eye, it reached 100 kilometers per hour, and it is still improving!

The scenery of the surrounding trees quickly retreated.

Chen Hongfei was concentrating on driving, but the passengers next to him heard another burst of exclamation.

"Wow, this acceleration is so fierce, it's amazing for my Kyushu Motor!"

"It's so cool, what I want is this feeling!"

"The speed is 100 kilometers per hour. It took about three seconds. Master, are you still pedaling a little more conservatively?"

"It's so handsome. With such power performance, which other vehicles with hundreds of thousands of cars can achieve it, Mercedes-Benz AMG, Ferrari, Porsche, or Lamborghini?"

Under Chen Hongfei's full attention, time seemed to speed up, and in the blink of an eye, the dead end road about one kilometer long reached the end.

Chen Hongfei stepped on the brakes slowly, the car slowed down, and finally stopped at the end of the road. At this time, he had the opportunity to express his feelings about driving this car.

"It feels really good. With this kind of acceleration, I will have more confidence when overtaking!"

"However, if you usually drive on the road, you have to be a little careful, don't accidentally speed up!"

"The top speed reaches nearly 200 kilometers per hour, and there is no slight body fluttering, and the feeling of unstable handling is still so heavy, like a normal car running at a speed of 60 to 70 per hour!"

"Comparing with the old Jetta before, when the old Jetta ran at a speed of about 100 kilometers per hour, although the ratio was better, but when the speed was as fast as 145 kilometers per hour, it was a bit shaky."

Of course, Chen Hongfei seldom drove the taxi at such a speed before, especially the gas taxi, it would be very difficult to quickly increase the speed range.

The power is weak, and it will be more difficult to overtake that kind of truck on the highway.

But now this car gives Chen Hongfei a completely different feeling. He definitely has the confidence to overtake, and it will pass cleanly. The acceleration is still very useful!

After hearing Chen Hongfei's feelings, the passenger said beside him: "This is the power of a supercar. Master, can you let me drive it? You can pay for it! A car with such a speed must be very enjoyable to drive!"
