Last year, for some reason, the hot wilderness (a camp) sent me a camping with a bag. It just happened that I have been going to the mountains recently, and I feel that in the hot Beijing, it seems that the mountains are a good paradise. I went to Shuiquangou last week, a place that must be brushed twice and brushed three times. This week I simply decided to go to the hot wilderness.
The camp is in Fangshan, a mountaintop. For families without a number in Beijing, expecting the lottery is tantamount to giving up. The current plan is to plan to rent a suitable car indicator, and buy a second-hand car is OK, but in terms of choice, Eleven (even me) likes the ideal L7 very much. Naturally, I can’t give up Tesla because of technology . In the past six months or so, I have almost looked at the current new energy vehicles. Each has its own characteristics, but not many stand out. After looking at the car for half a year, I even want to find a new energy car job. This thing is still very playable.
So, I decided to rent a Tesla Model Y that I was thinking of on the weekend and go into the mountains to play. In two days, I drove 164 kilometers, and the charging fee is almost negligible (charging on Sam’s national grid, the electricity fee is almost the same as the service fee, I feel the black-hearted capitalists), the car is a basic model, only the most basic auxiliary driving . The roads involved include urban commuting, train stations, highways and mountain roads, almost all the road conditions I will encounter. The whole also has a self-feeling for this car. If I try to drive other new energy sources later, I plan to make a small series of private test drives. The video is impossible, because there is a child screaming in the whole car.
Not much nonsense, for the Model Y, the two-day driving experience, the main feelings are as follows:
First, it’s a very rough, clumsy toy with a brain. The roughness is that its workmanship is really rough, the chassis of the whole car is so hard, when turning and passing obstacles, it feels like it is made in a box with square wheels, and there is no high-quality body feeling at all. Clumsy but smart because of safety, many places in it need to be artificially made some hard rules, such as when assisting driving, I can set the highest speed, which leads to this machine with high-intensity computing power, a little playful and fun None, it knows how to step on the brakes at a very suitable distance, how deep to step on, how long to step on the brakes, and also knows to maintain a very precise safety distance when following a car, and to accurately avoid vehicles that suddenly come diagonally, but it loses In addition to sudden acceleration and the ability to break through a little bit, it is a nerd-like rule enforcer. From this point of view, it is still a machine after all.
Secondly, in terms of driving experience, I really like its setting of lifting the switch and slowing down. Almost on the commuting road of about 40 kilometers I ran, half of the time I used assisted driving, and half of the time I released the switch by myself to control. It is necessary to make an explanation here. When the assisted driving is turned on, I am more like a passenger. I have no idea where it will step on the brakes and where it will accelerate. This allows me to see the road conditions and lose the The sense of control, this feeling is very bad. I have to admit that it is an old driver who is much better than me, especially when dealing with various temporary problems. If it happens to be closer to the driving habits of any old driver, I can guarantee the most basic assisted driving, and I can also Let the driver exclaim “Wow!”, but all I can say in my heart is “Oh, No!” It took me about 50 kilometers to get used to the feedback it gave me, but still every time it was automated, it made me lose reason. The most important thing is that when I tried to use the assisted driving on the mountain road, its experience was particularly bad. I even failed to recognize the mountain once, which caused me to take over suddenly. I also gave up trying to use the assisted driving on the mountain road again. , but in urban commuting, if I have enough time to adapt to it, I will like to use it more and more.
Again, in the basic settings of the car, all the content is set on one screen, which is too silly. Too stupid. Moreover, the so-called high-end camera video will be shown on the screen after the turn signal is on. In the real driving process, I try to rely on this video to operate, but its wide-angle does not conform to human visual experience at all. On curved and narrow roads, I don’t think it is a good auxiliary tool, and old drivers probably won’t look at it, it affects the driving experience very much. As for shifting, I do prefer the Tesla’s design, it’s easy to pick up and easy to operate.
other aspects,
- The trunk is big enough, not to mention there is a front back box.
- Passengers will be more aware of the push back feeling of acceleration than the driver.
- There is really nothing in the car. Compared with the static experience of several other new energy sources, I don’t even bother to comment.
- The Baidu used for the map is very rubbish. I want to emphasize it again, it is very rubbish. It is something I have to complain about throughout the whole process.
- In the case that I would choose to drive by myself, in Beijing and its surrounding areas, and even on long-distance challenges, I think battery life is not a problem anymore.
Finally, let me make a short summary: I will probably not buy it, but I should rent it a few times to play. Unless it hits the price in the early 200,000, then I should order the car as quickly as possible. Do I want to look forward to Xiaomi next year, the first car for a poor family? In terms of family car, its size is enough, commuter car point of view, I have to admit that it is indeed a very good car to drive. In the future, I will find an opportunity to try the ideal city NOP, and then talk about this topic in detail. This year, I will try to rent a few cars that I want to see.
Now, I begin to understand why the guys who do mobile phone evaluation have switched careers to make cars. It’s really fun. If you have any questions, you can leave a message and ask me. I think this 200-kilometer driving experience can basically give some reliable opinions.
