The power is instantly available, and the appearance is personally stylish. The configuration and comfort of the front row are first-class, and the back row is average. The car machine does not match the price, but fortunately, there is OTA once a quarter, and the traffic is free for life. Moreover, some time ago, the official replaced 8155 for free and upgraded to OTA3.0, which has made a qualitative improvement.
From the end of December the previous year when I got the car, I have driven 22,600 kilometers until today, and the mileage of the range extender has been over 2,300 kilometers, including a trip to Aba Prefecture last Spring Festival for a round trip of about 340 kilometers, and then a trip to Jinkouhe, Leshan and a small loop in western Sichuan during summer vacation with my children. This car is really suitable for running on national and provincial highways in western Sichuan. The powerful and rapid acceleration, accurate handling, and responsive throttle give me the feeling of being integrated with the car, and the speed is available immediately, just like the moment when Sun Wukong borrowed the Ruyi Jingu Bang in front of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. After a small trial in Wenchuan and Mao County early this year, I was determined to take my family on a small loop self-driving tour, and even made an itinerary and successfully executed it. The scenic beauty along the way is beyond description. Apart from the anxiety of the range extender, the most important thing is the safety and material used by Free, which allows me to enjoy it without any worries.
As for the electricity used, of course, it is free. My old community cannot install a charging pile. To be honest, it’s really not because I’m stingy, but because I sincerely believe that using as little petrol as possible is the greatest respect for green new energy vehicles (ahem…even I don’t believe this sentence when I say it out loud). In the past year, I have probably refueled only 8 or 9 times for long-distance travel, and I have spent less than 2,000 yuan in total, which is less than the cost of two months of fuel for my previous petrol car. Watching the soaring oil prices recently, the drivers of petrol cars lined up to refuel, and I really wanted to pump out the petrol in my tank and sell it to them. It’s not just about my own unused petrol, but mainly because I feel sorry for them for wasting so much time waiting in line.
As for other expenses, Chengdu city is very friendly to new energy vehicles. The roadside parking lots of the municipal government are free for the first two hours, and after that, they are half price. The charging network here is also very complete, especially the network cooperated with Voyah, which is ubiquitous. When charging for free electricity in free parking lots adjacent to shopping malls, you can also shop, take a walk, exercise or listen to music on the car. In summary, after roughly calculating, the car parking itself cost me less than 300 yuan in more than a year. As for the unavoidable expenses when charging, it’s hard to put into words, but everyone knows it.
