After three months of owning my new car, despite the constant chatter online about breakdowns on the highway and spontaneous combustion while charging, I’m thrilled to report that my LanTu is still going strong. I can’t help but feel lucky. Here are some key takeaways from my experience:
1. Overall energy consumption is low. My main use of the car is for commuting to and from work, totaling around 3000 km with an additional 525 km provided by the hybrid engine. I’ve only used the household charging station so far, but since I installed a commercial one, I’ve been charging every other day, significantly reducing my expenses. The gasoline consumption is 9.2L/100 km, while the electric is about 18.2 kWh /100 km. I once drove from full charge to 36%, which covered 115 km, so theoretically, I could travel about 150 km on a single charge.

The exterior design is still a head-turner. Simply put, it’s eye-catching. After driving it to work, it became an instant sensation, with many of my colleagues gathering around to admire it. Several even went for test drives afterwards, which I found out about later. They told me they wished they had come to me for a drive, but they didn’t, causing me to miss out on a massive bonus. My colleagues were so impressed that they even treated me to lunch, during which I enthusiastically recounted the many advantages of the LanTu. I’m pleased to say that several of my colleagues are now planning their own test drives.3. Comfortable daily experience. The Voyah car has made my commute more colorful and convenient to my liking. It’s also super convenient for answering phone calls and the good sound insulation makes for clear conversation, eliminating the need to physically handle the phone and greatly enhancing the sense of safety. Additionally, the high-quality Dynaudio sound system keeps me entertained throughout my drive. Since the manufacturer didn’t provide me with Kuwo music membership, I used to have trouble with frequent song interruptions, which was extremely annoying. So I decided to purchase the membership out of anger and finally could listen to a song all the way through. I have a morning jogging habit, and even though I used to shower before leaving home, I would still end up sweating inside the car, and the air conditioning couldn’t immediately give me a refreshing feeling. However, the Voyah’s ventilated seats can instantly cool me down with exceptional results. With my usual work overtime schedule, I come home exhausted every day, but the Voyah’s massage function helps me relax physically and mentally.

Smooth car computer. My car is usually parked in the basement and sometimes the car computer wouldn’t be able to connect to the network due to poor internet connection at start-up. However, within 30 seconds, the car computer will start up properly to respond to your commands, although some instructions may not be able to execute well due to network connectivity. Once I get out of the garage, the signal is normal and the car computer becomes much smoother and responsive. I think it still serves me well for now, so I haven’t planned to upgrade to the 8155.

Easy overtaking without embarrassment. When I used to drive my Corolla, I would stomp on the gas pedal to overtake, but the acceleration was lagging and it took 3-4 seconds to speed up, resulting in failed overtaking attempts and embarrassment. Now, with just a light touch on the gas pedal, the acceleration is smooth and effortless. I can easily move through the traffic, weaving in and out with ease like a calligraphy brush on paper and with no worries about overtaking.
Lastly, I wish Voyah a bright and ambitious future. As a Voyah owner, I hope to embark on a journey of mutual trust with Voyah, surpassing mountains and seas together towards a brighter tomorrow!
