Usually, we choose campsites in the local area or on the outskirts of the city, and rarely drive to other provinces hundreds of kilometers away for camping, because camping itself is a very physical work, if you add boat and car fatigue, after setting up the camp, I am afraid that you will not have the energy to enjoy the "fun of camping".
However, in the first game of 2022, which has been accumulating energy for a long time, we still decided to come to a "long-distance camping".
This "long-distance camping" made me understand a word more deeply - "bottom", and as for what is "bottom gas"? And listen to me in detail.
The destination of the trip is "Cang'erhui - Zhiji Jishan Camp", located in the southwest of Taiyuan City, the capital of Shanxi Province, on the east side of the Lüliang Mountains, about 660 kilometers from Beijing, and a journey of about 7 hours.
In addition to the inventory of camping equipment according to the list before departure, the epidemic prevention work should also be prepared in advance, and it is necessary to enter/pass through many areas for 48 hours of nucleic acid certification, and it is necessary to check the epidemic prevention policy of the destination a few days in advance and do a good job of nucleic acid testing in advance.
Take stock of your gear and set off
Arrive at Shanxi's bottom line in one breath
The courage to run for nearly 700 kilometers over long distances comes from the range extension system. While enjoying smooth power, the extended range system gives the ideal ONE a long endurance, supporting us to arrive at our destination almost "in one breath". Moreover, even if you go farther away, there will be no mileage anxiety when opening the ideal ONE.
The benefits of the extended range system: just go
I don't know if you have the experience of driving a pure tram to run a long distance, often the battery life is not enough, and you fall into mileage anxiety early. Not only that, a service area often has only 4-8 charging piles, especially during the holidays, queuing up to charge once will waste hours of time, almost announcing the end of the holiday trip.
The extended range system has turned all gas stations into the "refueling stations" of the ideal ONE, even if it is a long journey, the ideal ONE does not have to compete with other new energy vehicles for the few charging piles in the high-speed service area.
At this time, the ideal ONE car owners who only need 5 minutes to fill up with gasoline and go away can fully understand the excellent convenience of "city electricity, long-distance power generation".
Since we were not ready to rest after arriving at our destination, we wanted to start camping directly, and we used the fuel priority mode in the itinerary, selecting "Standard" in the system settings. Fuel priority is stronger than the hybrid mode of fuel and electricity, and there can be enough electricity for external discharge and air conditioning (overnight in the car) to reach the campsite.
Many friends are interested in the long-distance fuel consumption of the ideal ONE, which happens to be a good opportunity for actual measurement.
In order to reserve sufficient energy redundancy for subsequent activities in the campground, we chose to fill up the fuel in Taiyuan City, and as of arrival in Taiyuan City, the ideal ONE traveled a total of 519 kilometers (most of which are high-speed), the fuel consumption was 8.3L/100km, and the power level was maintained at around 70%, which can be used for your reference.
Always energetic
In fact, the nearly 700-kilometer journey does not carry a huge burden of energy, thanks to the ideal ONE's updated navigational assisted driving feature in OTA 3.0.
In the nearly 500-kilometer highway section, the navigation assistance driver mainly helped me do three things:
1. Switch the highway up and down the ramp according to the navigation route.
2. Automatically drive according to the speed limit of the current road section, and when the road speed limit is changed, the speed limit of the vehicle will also be adjusted.
3. Prompt me to change lanes to the fast lane when the traffic flow in front is slow, and after getting permission (OK key on the right side of the steering wheel to confirm), perform the parallel action.
Navigation assisted driving with automatic up and down ramps (switching high speeds)
In fact, not only the high-speed road section, now in some parts of the ring road and other sections of the ideal ONE can also open the navigation assist driving function, with the coverage of high-precision maps getting higher and higher, the future ideal ONE navigation assisted driving will also reduce the burden for car owners in more road sections.
The ideal ONE navigation assisted driving is the basis for us to "long-distance" and then "camp", which helps me to save enough energy for camping activities. Without navigation assisted driving, I would have lost the motivation to camp and just had the motivation to camp and just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
Leave the road underneath
Thanks to an early rise, and no extra time wasted on every part of the trip, we got off the road on time to get into the camp area before the sun went down. The perfect scenery is usually far away from the hustle and bustle, and nature is not directly accessible by road.
Although many friends comment that the ideal ONE is a "daddy car", this does not mean that the ideal ONE belongs only to the road, for the light off-road, Ta is completely competent. Of course, some tips can also help you avoid unnecessary trouble.
In a word, the light off-road tip - walk fast through the sand and slow down the water. The "fast" here does not mean speeding in the sand, its meaning is to stabilize the speed in the soft sand, avoid braking and stopping, and prevent the vehicle from falling in the sand; when walking on the waterway, it is slower, because the underwater road conditions are not visible, you can feel the underwater information while driving, make corresponding adjustments in time, on the other hand, also prevent the water level from being washed higher, causing safety hazards.
Temperatures in the mountains are low, tires don't have to panic when they lose grip in ditches or snow that hasn't completely melted, and electronic limiting slip will also intervene quickly to help ideal ONE get out of trouble quickly.
In the field with complicated road conditions, what we have to do is to protect the tires as much as possible, choose a good route to avoid the sharp stone road, and for the sharp stone road that cannot be avoided, it is a good idea to slow down the speed of passage. I've seen more than once the sharp stones on dirt roads break through MT tires that are designed for off-roading as vehicles speed past, but if you're willing to slow down, even HT tires designed primarily for roads are actually very strong.
Finally, using the ideal ONE's 360-degree panoramic image to observe the "blind spots" around the vehicle will also help you better judge the risk.
Bold and careful, the ideal ONE is a reliable partner.
What exactly is "bottom line"?
Since the Industrial Revolution, humans have "evolved" much faster in their way of life than species as defined by Darwin in Evolution, and to put it simply, cars can carry people across hundreds of kilometers in a matter of hours, which was unthinkable.
As human beings, they are genetically no different from a thousand years ago, so we living in the cement jungle occasionally want to return to nature and do things that are incompatible with efficient civilized society, such as fishing or camping for a day or two.
Of course, in this process, we can use technology to highlight the difference with our ancestors, and choose to enjoy nature more rather than "fight" for survival.
When night comes and you've seen enough of the stars, you can either connect an electric blanket or an outdoor heater with an external discharge to sleep in a tent closer to nature.
If you don't want to set up a tent, simply adjust the seat, the ideal ONE bed mode can provide a more comfortable and safe "room", if you have higher requirements, the ideal ONE customized inflatable mattress may be able to meet you.
Of course, if the camp conditions are good enough, living in a fixed motorhome and treating you to a day of running around in a real big bed is naturally a good choice.
The real bottom line, that is, it may not be used every time, but you know that whether it is a range extension system, navigation assisted driving, 360-degree ring car image or external discharge, large bed mode, etc., the ideal ONE with these capabilities will always stand behind you and tell you: Go choose and try, no, there is me.
Where do you prefer to sleep when camping?
