Heavy! China’s first pickup truck technical standard came into effect! Focus on these four points

Today, the long-awaited technical standard for pickup trucks-"General Technical Conditions for Multi-purpose Trucks" came into effect!  

  This is the first technical standard for pickup trucks in China. Many card friends still have little knowledge of the standard content, and they don’t know whether their pickup trucks meet the requirements.Taking advantage of the first day of implementation, China pickup network once again gives you a key point!  

  First of all, if you want to make sure that your pickup symbol does not meet the requirements, focus on these four points:

 1. It must be a double-row pickup truck, and a single row is not included;

 2, the engine must be in the front, and cannot invade the cab too much;

 3. The container is no longer than 1.85m, and it is not in the form of three sides;

 4. There must be at least 4 container hooks, and there must be an ISOFIX child seat interface; ?

  Of course, the content of the standard is far more than that, but some of them are the rules that pickup trucks have followed before, such as the total mass does not exceed 3.5 tons, and the cargo box cover can be equipped; There are some non-compliant models, such as approach angle not less than 25, departure angle not less than 20, and minimum ground clearance not less than 180 mm. Therefore, if card friends want to judge whether their pickup trucks meet the new standards, they can have a preliminary judgment by focusing on these four points.  

  More detailed rules, then Xiaobian will explain it again for everyone.  

  At the beginning of the standard, the scope of application is defined, which is a multi-purpose truck with double rows of seats. This scope is quite lethal, and many single-row pickups are excluded. This is because there are not many single-row pickups on the market at present, and many single-row pickups are used for pulling goods, so there is no separate regulation on them in the rules. Of course, it is inevitable that a number of single-row pickups for fun will be accidentally injured. Perhaps the future standards will optimize this.  

  Subsequently, the standard clarified the definition of multi-purpose truck, which roughly means that pickup trucks have three parts: the front, the cockpit and the cargo box, and the total weight cannot exceed 3.5 tons, which is consistent with the rules that pickup trucks have always followed. However, the definition also requires the proportion of the car body, which restricts the pickup truck from being made into the shape of a micro-surface magic change, or the shape of a long container, so that the pickup truck is clearly distinguished from the micro-truck.  

  The standard also requires the dimensions of pickup trucks, among which the most concerned is that "the internal length of the container is not more than 35% of the length of the whole vehicle and not more than 1850 mm", which excludes many kinds of super-long container products on the market, and puts forward that pickup trucks can only open the rear door, not the three sides, which means that many models that mainly open on three sides will not be among the pickup trucks, such as Wuling Journey, which has attracted much attention in recent years.  

  In addition, the standard also requires that the height of the cab should be no more than 2100 mm, the height of the upper end of the container rail should be no more than 1500 mm, the distance between seats should be no less than 650 mm, and the depth of the cushion should be no less than 400 mm. At the same time, the container should be equipped with at least 4 fastening points and symmetrically distributed, and it can be equipped with a container cover, but it must be of a hard structure, and it should have an opening structure or a lid lock system for cargo handling.  

  Because pickup trucks have strong off-road properties, the standards also have mandatory requirements for pickup trucks’ passability and stability. For example, the vehicle should meet at least two requirements of "approach angle not less than 25, departure angle not less than 20, minimum ground clearance not less than 180 mm" when it is in the state of vehicle kerb quality, and the maximum climbing degree is not less than 25%, and the maximum lateral stability angle of the vehicle to the left and right is not less than 35 when it is in the state of vehicle kerb quality and at rest.  

  It is worth mentioning that the requirements of the standard for child restraint systems and fixing points are also mandatory, and it is proposed that "multi-purpose trucks should have at least one rear seat equipped with ISOFIX child restraint system fixing device that meets the requirements of GB 14167". However, this function is missing in most pickup trucks at present, and even some pickup trucks with high positioning are included.  

  In recent years, with the upgrade of pickup truck ride, towing RV and trailer has become a new trend for pickup truck players, especially with the launch of C6 driver’s license last month, the popularity of pickup truck towing has soared, and in the standard, the relevant requirements and regulations for pickup truck towing have also been made very detailed.

  Among them, the most concerned is that "the circuit capacity from the multi-purpose truck to the output end of the trailer should be not less than 20A, and it should be equipped with a 12V13-core electrical connector conforming to GB/T 20718", which means that if the vehicle has the qualification of towing, it must have a power interface to which the trailer can be connected, and there are mandatory requirements for the circuit capacity and connector of the interface, which should be paid attention to by the vehicle enterprise when it leaves the factory.  

  In addition, there are requirements on towing device and running performance, such as: "The maximum climbing degree of the train should not be less than 12%", "For all-wheel and rear-wheel drive multi-purpose trucks, the ratio of the maximum designed total mass of the central axle trailer to the curb mass of the multi-purpose truck should not be greater than 1.5".  

  Undoubtedly, the implementation of technical standards for pickup trucks is of great significance to the domestic pickup market. Recently, the General Office of the State Council issued a document stating that "fine management should be implemented for pickup trucks entering the city, and the restrictions on pickup trucks entering the city should be further relaxed." Combined with the technical standards of pickup trucks that will come into effect soon, the possibility of pickup trucks independently existing as "multi-purpose trucks" in management will be further increased in the future.  

  "General Technical Conditions for Multi-purpose Truck" can not only improve the quality of pickup truck products, standardize the technical requirements of pickup trucks, but also provide important technical reference for traffic management law enforcement departments, completely change the situation that pickup trucks have different lifting standards, different progress and false landing, and gradually promote changes in urban road rights, scrapping, annual inspection and highway rights and interests.

Outstanding performance-to-price ratio test SAIC Volkswagen Tourang 330TSI

speed up apply the brakes oil consumption second rice rise How can a big character be compared with Touan/Explorer? Evaluation editor:

The appearance of Tourang is very solid and eye-catching, and seven large spaces can also meet the needs of multi-person travel. The steering wheel and accelerator pedal are very soft, and the suspension is also soft, which can provide good driving comfort. The chassis lacks a little texture, and it is not thick enough to drive, which is a bit out of tune with its positioning and image. Sound insulation is excellent, and wind noise and road noise can be effectively isolated. The 2.0T high-power engine has a general dynamic feeling at the initial stage, but the middle and rear stages are very powerful, which is completely enough for home use.

Evaluation Editor-Zhang Ziyi:

Tourang 380TSI is a car with strong affinity, and the throttle response is not fast, but the acceleration in the latter part is fierce, and the gearbox downshifts quickly, so there is no feeling of sloppiness. The most important thing is that the car is not heavy to drive, with light steering and good vision. The suspension can provide good support when it is quickly combined or braked urgently. Even if you drive it for the first time, you won’t be nervous.

Evaluation Editor-Wang Zeshi:

As a medium and large SUV, Touran already has the basic elements of tiger appearance, high configuration and large space, and it is also very familiar with the "public feeling" at first. It’s hard to judge whether it’s good or bad. In terms of performance, it’s absolutely excellent, but in terms of driving experience, I think it’s too light and lacks the heavy feeling that medium and large SUVs should have. This is a complete subjective preference, and 2 points will be deducted here.

Online food depends on "P"? Is the lunch box suspected to be opened? —— "Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Food Safety in Online Catering Services" helps you solve the "troubles on th

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, January 1st Question: Online food depends on "P"? Is the lunch box suspected to be opened? — — The Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Food Safety in Online Catering Services can help you solve the "troubles on the tip of your tongue"

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Chen Cong

  Click on the mobile APP, and countless delicious foods "blink", and when you move your finger, the takeaway will be delivered to your door … … With the "blowout" growth of the take-away market, more and more "foodies" began to enjoy the welfare of fingertip food, but the problem of take-away food was vomited by netizens from time to time: Why do you always feel that the amount of food sold outside is not much eaten in restaurants? Why is the difference between the dishes you get and the online food pictures too far? Why does the food in my lunch box feel half eaten? With the "Measures for Food Safety Supervision and Management of Online Catering Services" officially implemented on January 1, these problems will be solved one by one.

  The license published by the takeaway business actually comes from the fake photo of the "P-picture master"? The online food delivered to the door actually comes from the "ghost restaurant" … … With the increasing number of take-away choices, the "behind-the-scenes" safety of online food has attracted more and more attention from consumers.

  Sun Meijun, deputy director of the State Council Food Safety Office and deputy director of china food and drug administration, pointed out that there are some problems in online ordering, such as the platform is not strict with the review of online merchants. Some businesses resort to deceit, fictitious addresses and upload false photos; Some merchants carry out take-away services in violation of regulations without a license; Some merchants fraudulently use other merchants’ business licenses.

  In order to solve this problem, the measures stipulate that the third-party platform providers of online catering services should review the food business license of the catering service providers, register the information such as the name, address, legal representative or person in charge and contact information of the catering service providers, and ensure that the licensing information such as the business premises specified in the food business license of the catering service providers is true.

  Yi Zhu, an associate professor at China Agricultural University, pointed out that the new regulations require the platform to enter businesses to "bind physical stores", that is, every monk should have a temple. As the saying goes, the temple is a threshold, which can screen out many "fake monks" who live on the platform.

  How do major platforms implement this regulation? Wei Hai, CEO of Baidu Takeaway, said that Baidu Takeaway has explored the system of "daily inspection+regular sampling+special line ranking". If there are quality problems or problems in the manufacturing process, Baidu Takeaway will make suggestions and rectification, and those who fail to pass the rectification or fail to do so within the time limit will be ordered to go offline.

  Kang Jia, chief operating officer and co-founder of "Hungry", also said that "Hungry" hired a third-party organization, SAI GLOBAL, to conduct offline review of merchants on the basis of its own personnel’s initial verification and supervision of the second verification.

  Get through the "last mile" and "love seal" and "insure" the lunch box

  Food delivery is an important part of take-away safety, but in the process of rapid expansion of online catering industry, incidents such as "the take-away lunch box is polluted" and "the lunch box is suspected to be opened" have been repeatedly exposed.

  How to get through the "last mile" of takeaway tip safety? The measures stipulate that catering service providers should use non-toxic and clean food containers, tableware and packaging materials, and package catering food to avoid direct contact with food by food delivery personnel and ensure that food is not contaminated during food delivery.

  According to the regulations, major take-out platforms have "insured" the food delivery link. Baidu take-out began to promote take-out sealing stickers throughout the country. If users find that there are broken or artificially opened marks when taking meals, they can have the right to refuse directly; "Hungry" takeaway lunch boxes have been piloted in some areas to use "food safety seal" to avoid secondary pollution of meals during distribution; Meituan take-out is accelerating the signing of take-out meal bags and lunch boxes, and has recently promoted the implementation in the first batch of 30 cities.

  Yi Zhu, an associate professor at China Agricultural University, said that for the distribution link, the software and hardware should be strengthened, the lunch boxes, sealing strips and distribution boxes should pass the customs, and the qualifications of the distributors and education and training should be kept up.

  However, insiders also pointed out that it may be difficult for some businesses to completely seal the food during the busy delivery time, and it is necessary to strengthen monitoring to block this loophole.

  Big market has big data, digital food safety welcomes wisdom upgrade.

  The industry believes that according to the calculation that foreign online ordering accounts for 30% of catering revenue, China’s online ordering market will be more than one trillion yuan in the future. In the face of the current situation that online ordering platforms are "large in quantity and difficult to manage", it is urgent for the take-away market to introduce new technical means into supervision.

  Wang Yuzhong, vice president of Meituan Review Group, said that Meituan Takeaway completed the construction of the "Skynet System" in 2017, and conducted online audit, online supervision and offline tracking for merchants, which has been linked with the food and drug supervision departments in Beijing, Shanghai and Xiamen. The docking of merchant license data was carried out, and the "registration" and "verification" of merchant information were completed in one step.

  Kang Jia also said that "Hungry" has launched a pilot online live broadcast of "Bright Kitchen and Bright Stove" in 11 cities. "Hungry?" has shared quantitative grading information data with food and drug supervision departments in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The next step will be to communicate and cooperate with regulatory authorities in other regions to solve the problem of quantitative grading information publicity from a technical level.

  In this regard, Sun Meijun pointed out that we hope that the platform promoters will give full play to the advantages of "network management", strengthen big data analysis, share information on inspection and monitoring, complaints and reports in a timely manner, promote public participation, social co-governance and innovation in supervision methods, and make greater contributions to improving the quality and safety of catering, promoting the high-quality development of the food industry and ensuring the "safety on the tip of the tongue" of the people.

  The responsible persons of the major take-away platforms also expressed the hope that the competent government departments can strengthen the guidance and support for third-party online take-away platforms and work together to ensure the safety of online take-away food.

Join hands with ant group to seize the smart travel track. Can the box of wisdom travel proudly in the rivers and lakes?

On the road outside the 5th China Online Travel Industry Summit, the customized online car model Haima EX00 cooperated by Zhixing Box and Haima Automobile was one after another, and many users who tried to ride it commented that it was "spacious", "very shocking" and "more comfortable than ordinary online cars". In the second half of 2024, Haima EX00 will be delivered in mass production. I wonder if this shock and comfort will continue.

Zhixing Box is a young enterprise. It has only been less than one year since it settled in the Central Plains. Relying on the resources of provincial and municipal governments, its development momentum is accelerating. In November 2023, the first prototype of Haima EX00 was ignited off the assembly line, and it was officially released in December, and it received nearly 150,000 intentional orders.

According to reports, Zhixing Box is an artificial intelligence Internet of Things (AIoT) and big data technology company to create a full-link and full-scenario smart travel ecosystem.

But it is such a company that does not build a car or a platform. Why can it empower the smart travel industry?

Ten years ago, the appearance of online car rental changed people’s mode of transportation. In the past ten years, China’s economy has grown rapidly and living standards have been continuously improved. The scale and users of the online car market have only increased, but the market has become a zero-sum game, and everyone has begun to complain that they can’t make money.

The real problem is that there has been no new technological breakthrough, new product innovation and new model introduction in the domestic travel industry for more than ten years.

Zhixing Box cooperates with Haima Automobile, focusing on the unique demand scene of B-end, and develops and designs the first exclusive customized network car Haima EX00, which makes the space utilization ratio to the extreme. The "1+1+3" seat layout not only makes drivers work more efficiently and conveniently, but also creates a mobile "private box" for passengers, and the design without B-pillar also greatly facilitates passengers to get on and off.

"Zero gravity" C-seat king, 15.6-inch car screen, HIDO entertainment system, unmanned retail vending machine, content ecological platform & HELIP; … Intelligent commercial cockpit system makes passengers have more comfortable and intelligent experience.

Zhixing Box not only has new product innovation, but also has new business model supporting, which brings obvious benefits to platforms, drivers, passengers and other parties.

There are three main aspects to improve revenue, namely, reducing costs, increasing efficiency and opening up a new intelligent business track.

At present, most of the transactions between OEMs, travel industry platforms and drivers are a one-shot deal. After the online car is sold, there is almost no follow-up service. The cost of car purchase is high, the cost of car use is high, the cost of financial insurance is high, the driver’s desire to operate is gradually reduced, the operating cycle is gradually shortened, and the recruitment cost of platform drivers is gradually increased. Such a vicious circle leads to everyone in the ecological chain of the travel industry making no money.

Zhixing Box reduces the cost of car use through the exclusive customized network car, and uses Internet technology to realize intelligent matching between people and cars, effectively attracting and recruiting more high-quality drivers. At the same time, through the Che Yun linkage model, we can reduce the occurrence in advance, the responsibility in the event and the compensation afterwards, and reduce the insurance from the average of 9,600 yuan per vehicle to 7,000 yuan per year.

Zhixing Box will also realize one-stop automobile procurement and vehicle full-cycle management through management and order improvement. Zhe Chunming, co-founder and COO of Zhixing Box, said: "There are still 271 million potential users in China’s travel industry. Box Zhixing will open up new travel scenarios for people with mobility difficulties, newborns and pet people."

Service quality has become a new driving force in the travel industry, and only with high-quality service can we increase the number of users. As a mobile intelligent space, the online car ride box provides passengers with more high-quality services and experiences in an average 20-minute journey, such as intelligent retail, cockpit massage, city publicity and play strategy & HELIP; … Let each car earn 2000 yuan more every month.

A good horse with a good saddle, a customized network car and an eco-business model have laid a solid foundation for Zhixing Box to travel proudly in the rivers and lakes.

The competition in the 21st century is not only the competition between enterprises, but also the competition between enterprise ecological circle and friends circle.

At this year’s Guangzhou Auto Show, the appearance of Huawei’s Ruifeng RF8 triggered a heated discussion. On November 25th, Huawei and Changan signed the Memorandum of Investment Cooperation, and Huawei BU officially became independent. On November 28th, Huawei released the HarmonyOS Smart Car Technology Ecological Alliance — — HarmonyOS Zhixing; On December 7th, Alipay and Huawei announced the cooperation … … A series of operations have proved that Huawei has been laying out a strong intelligent industry ecosystem.

And Zhixing Box puts out its rhetoric. To be Huawei in the field of B-end travel, it is to create a new ecology of smart travel, realize cost reduction and efficiency increase, experience "10+" times improvement, and create value for the whole travel ecology.

In order to achieve this goal, Zhixing Box has continuously expanded its circle of corporate friends. At the 5th China Internet Travel Industry Summit, Zhixing Box successfully signed a contract with Ant Digital Branch and "CITIC Joint Fleet" (CITIC Securities, CITIC Bank, CITIC Golden Rent and CITIC Zhenhua Equity Investment), and deeply integrated and cooperated in the fields of digital travel service and travel financial ecology to create a smart travel solution for the city, which also means that smart travel has officially entered the 2.0 era.

On December 22nd, Zhixing Box signed a strategic contract with Ant Science.

On December 22nd, Zhixing Box signed a strategic contract with "CITIC Joint Fleet" (CITIC Securities, CITIC Bank, CITIC Golden Rent, and CITIC Zhenhua Equity Investment).

The cooperation between Zhixing Box and Ant Group will focus on exploring the path of "data upgrading and re-integration" in the B-end travel market, based on the "full link data of vehicle, driver, passenger, road and platform" of Zhixing Box, and tap new application value of the industry through the data fusion ability of Ant Group.

It is reported that in view of driving behavior, Ant Mathematics and Zhixing Box jointly build a driver’s safe driving model based on body sensing, face recognition and other technologies. By identifying the driver’s driving state, timely intervene in dangerous driving behaviors such as fatigue driving and answering phone calls to ensure the safety of drivers and passengers.

Liao Qunwei, general manager of the Safety Technology Products Department of the Digital Technology Business Group of Ant Group, said: "The two parties will combine the existing full-link data advantages of Zhixing Box and the digital solutions of Ant Digital in the network car industry to provide new business models for the whole industry and continuously empower the travel industry to operate efficiently."

In the future, the cooperation between Zhixing Box and Ant Department in the field of B-end travel will mainly focus on: providing more optimized smart travel solutions for the industry; Combine the B-end travel scenarios to jointly create competitive financial and insurance solutions; Create intelligent cockpit ecological services and strengthen digital control of vehicle assets.

The strategic partnership with CITIC Consortium will facilitate the refinancing credit, equity investment and investment banking business of Zhixing Box, and help Zhixing Box to further develop investment and financing, automobile travel industry chain, financial technology and other businesses.

In the future, with the listing of Haima EX00, the first exclusive customized network model, Zhixing Box is expected to jointly launch innovative financial services in the B-side travel industry with CITIC, accelerate the promotion of the layout of "building a smart city" and seize the opportunity of smart travel track.

A single flower does not make a spring. In the future, Zhixing Box will be a good service provider in the travel industry, providing underlying hardware solutions, software ecology and operational tools, and creating with ecological partners to empower the travel industry.

Analysis of Roewe i5 Wet Dual Clutch (DCT)+1.5T Strong Performance

The progress of China brand cars in recent years is obvious to all, and some excellent achievements have been made in both internal and external design and comprehensive performance. What I bring to you today is that it has many highlights. Let’s take a look at it next.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of the Roewe i5 first. The front of the Roewe i5 is very individual, with a three-piece grille, which looks sporty. Coupled with the exquisite headlights, the overall look is full of coldness. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, front fog lights, headlight height adjustment, automatic opening and closing, adaptive distance light, delayed closing and so on. Come to the side of the car, the car body size is 4615MM*1818MM*1489MM, the car uses angular lines, and the car side feels very capable, with large-sized thick-walled tires, the shape is eye-catching. Looking back, the overall shape of the rear of the car echoes the front face, the taillights are very cute, and the unique exhaust pipe creates a good gas field.

Sitting in the car, the overall visual effect of Roewe i5 interior is very distinctive and the visual effect is good. The steering wheel of the car is very simple in shape, equipped with functions such as manual adjustment of the steering wheel up and down, and the grip is full and delicate. Let’s take a look at the central control. The car is decorated with a fashionable touch-control LCD central control screen, which makes the interior design quite layered and conforms to the mainstream aesthetics. The dashboard and seats are equally eye-catching. The dashboard of the car presents a clean and refreshing design style, and the sports atmosphere is relatively in place. The car uses a leather-like seat, and the seat is wrapped in place, which is basically enough for daily use.

To sum up: the car is a very suitable choice for many families with a moderate size, and the internal space is enough for daily use.

Excellent interior recognized by the high-end market, Hongqi H5 sales continue to grow

News from our newspaper (Reporter Wang Hui) As the first Chinese high-end brand B-class car, the sales volume of the Hongqi H5 has increased steadily since its launch, especially the sales of the Hongqi H5 medium and high-end models account for more than 80%. In this regard, Li Shengjiang, product director of China FAW Hongqi H5, pointed out the key reason: in the hearts of high-end market users who pay the most attention to the interior, the Hongqi H5 has more than 1,100 "excellent interior projects", presenting a very attractive high-end interior texture of the vehicle.

The simple and avant-garde technology sense of the Hongqi H5 is the first impression for users. When you enter the car, you are in the surrounding cockpit of the Hongqi H5, open the "Hongqi Zhilian" on the 10-inch central control screen, and start to enjoy smart travel. Feel the delicate touch of the solid wood trim of the center console, put your belongings into the armrest storage compartment in the floating door, and then turn on the car’s 11-speaker BOSE stereo. High-end enjoyment is at this moment.

Secondly, look at the interior, it depends on the materials used. Good materials not only highlight the brand grade, but also bring comfort and enjoyment. Hongqi H5 center console adopts the material matching of solid wood trim, matte chrome plating and piano paint, which is clear in layers and does not abuse it. The solid wood trim is white bolt wood imported from North America, which is tough in texture, stable in nature, and delicate and clear in texture. The control area panel is made of piano paint, combined with the touch panel, which is fashionable and exquisite.

In this fast-paced era, we are often deeply exhausted from body to mind. At this time, you just need to sit in the Hongqi H5, let the whole body stick to the Australian imported bull leather seat, and give your whole body to it. Its full-grain process, fine stitching and punching treatment, plus heating and ventilation characteristics, can let you get away from the busy and feel comfortable and comfortable time.

In addition, the use of leather materials on the Hongqi H5 is not limited to the touch of the seat, but also has a persistent attention to the feel. When you drive your car, hold the steering wheel of the Hongqi H5, and feel the subtle friction between the skin and the Nappa leather, the feeling of having everything in your hands is unparalleled.

It is reported that the R & D team of Hongqi H5 has invested a lot of energy in the fine design, including the design, manufacturing process, material selection and many other aspects of optimization, and the whole car has carried out more than 1100 fine and benign improvements. This extreme polishing of details allows us to see the appearance of Hongqi products.

Brother Nian’s test drive, is it the icing on the cake to return to basics? Haval’s second-generation big dog

Recently, I believe that the flour who is ready to buy a car has been attracted by the "huge discounts" of various car brands. But I hope that the shrewd people will not be disturbed by the price of their original car demand. For example, SUVs that have always maintained a hot topic in China have always had two groups of loyal fans.

The first group was naturally those who often commuted in the city and occasionally went out to drive. The second group was those who often challenged various difficulty off-road scenarios and often went camping in the wild. But between the two groups, would there be some consumers who needed to commute in the city and go camping on holidays?

I believe the answer is yes.

Of course, it is the second-generation big dog of Haval, the protagonist of our test drive.

I believe that those who are concerned about the Haval brand know that the first generation of Haval Big Dog (Parameters) is launched for young consumers, and its strength is also remarkable. The second generation of Big Dog, based on the advantages of the first generation, increased the length, wheelbase and front wheelbase, allowing the second generation of Big Dog to transform from a compact SUV into a medium-sized SUV.

In terms of power that everyone cares about the most, the maximum horsepower and torque of its 2.0T engine have been improved by 27 horsepower and 50 Nm compared with the previous generation, and the gearbox has also been upgraded from the previous generation’s 7DCT to 9DCT. Whether it is for city driving or off-road scenarios, its acceleration performance, escape ability and fuel economy can be greatly improved. As for other aspects of the second-generation big dog, let’s find out in this test drive.

When I first saw the actual car of the second generation of the big dog, I felt that it was more wild than the first generation. The slender middle net extended directly to the headlights on both sides, making it a tougher look from the newer shape of the previous generation. On the side of the car, the lines clearly engraved on the front and rear fenders give it a sense of muscular power.

In addition, the rivets on the anti-scratch wheel arch will be more obvious than the first generation, making its wild characteristics more prominent. As for why the taillights do not use the most popular through-type taillights, this can only be said to be a matter of opinion. But the headlights and taillights are hidden in the dog bone shape of the turn signal, this small detail is quite interesting.

Sitting in the car of the second-generation big dog, you will first be attracted by its two huge display screens. Its LCD meter is 12.3 inches, and there is a large 14.6-inch central control screen. It can be said that you are directly putting the screen of a mainstream laptop on the center console. And we tested the top model, so there is also a Hud head-up display.

It is worth mentioning that the brightness of this central control screen is as high as 1000 nits, and the hardness has reached the Mohs 7H level, which is not afraid of scratching by daily objects. And it also has three coatings, which can achieve the effects of anti-glare, anti-reflection and anti-fingerprint. It can be seen that in addition to urban use, it also takes into account the use of your off-road scene.

You must know that the most famous national highways such as 318 and 219 are on the plateau, because the daytime sun will be very dazzling. If the brightness of the central control screen is not enough, or there is no anti-reflection function, then when driving in these places, you cannot clearly see the navigation or vehicle status.

Then, in terms of the gear handle, the knob shift of the previous generation has been replaced by the electronic gear shift lever of the tank 300. Next to the gear lever, there are control buttons such as differential lock, handbrake, and knobs for driving mode. There are also physical buttons such as air conditioning and multimedia listed at the bottom of the central control screen. This is to facilitate drivers to perform blind operations in the city or off-road to avoid affecting driving safety.

Of course, the second-generation big dog’s car is equipped with the 8155 chip, and when there is a signal, you can control it by voice to execute various commands. For example, switch on and off the sunroof or windows, adjust the air conditioner, choose songs, check the weather or navigation, etc. Its response is very fast. And you can also speak commands continuously to make it execute, without calling it frequently. Ultimately, its performance is in the same level.

However, what surprised me the most was the comfort of the second-generation big dog seats, both in the front and rear seats, which were excellent. Let me sigh again, what people used to say about the Nissan sofa is really not an advantage now. Look at 100,000 cars like the big dog, it can present a comfortable feeling like the Nissan sofa, and its comfort is that the surface cushion is soft. When you sink in to a certain extent, it will have a support to support you. You wouldn’t say that the whole person is sinking in.

So in this test drive, whether it is on a city road, a country road, or a bumpy mountain road, the big dog gave me a good sense of comfort. Coupled with the longer wheelbase, the legroom in the rear row is also very good. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to mention that the angle of the rear seat backrest of the first generation of big dogs cannot be adjusted. Now the second-row seat backrest of the second-generation big dog is already adjustable. When you go to Shihe Distance again, the rear passengers can have a more comfortable sitting position and sleep peacefully.

Finally, in terms of some details, the second generation of big dogs has a magnetic camping mosquito repellent lamp, which can also be used as a flashlight or a signal light. There is also a table board in the trunk (to be used with camping carts, etc.), which can be used for 5 people to eat around while camping. The rear window has a rare sunshade of the same class, and the front row has a 50-watt wireless charging. The new cup holder also adopts a shape similar to the fixed seat belt, which is convenient for you to stuff water glasses or drinks of different sizes.

This design, in the process of driving on the mountain road, let me get a real experience. Because when running on the mountain road, the car body shakes because of the bumps in the road, and then my knee directly hits the plastic bottle in the cup holder, which helps me cushion the force. Think about it, if it was a traditional plastic cup holder, it would definitely hurt to hit my knee.

Coming to the driving part, we have to go back to the big dog’s car and talk about its help for off-road driving. I believe those who have played off-road know that off-road depends on the performance of the car and four-wheel drive performance, but also requires the driver’s own excellent driving skills. The second-generation big dog is equipped with a 360-degree panoramic image, plus a 180-degree transparent chassis, and has different visual mode switching, allowing you to clearly see the position of the four wheels on the road, as well as the steering angle.

In addition to the vehicle angle, power output of the four wheels, altitude and other data. It can be said that this is the biggest difference between the second-generation big dog and other city SUVs. I believe that if an off-road white, with the help of this system, he can already challenge some light and moderate off-road sections. If it is an off-road expert, he can even challenge some medium and high-difficulty off-road sections.

Finally, in terms of power, its 2.0T plus 9Dc offers a significant improvement in both power and fuel economy compared to the previous generation of Big Dog. Coupled with its intelligent electronically controlled four-wheel drive, two locks, and nine driving modes, it can really easily respond to urban roads and some off-road road conditions.

In this test drive, we drove on city roads and found that the 9DCT does allow the engine to rotate at a lower speed than the 7DCT at the same speed to increase fuel efficiency. If you don’t drive on city roads like a hardcore SUV, you have to transform into a grease monster/gold swallowing beast. Then on the test drive on the mountain road, there are just one or two hairpin bends, and there will be cross-axles. But we only use the AUTO mode, and the big dog can easily pass these cross axles without the need for locks or other off-road modes at all.

In addition, the big dog is equipped with a tooth-embedded differential lock, which allows you to actively lock, while most of the differential locks of other city SUVs are Eaton’s, which are passive differential locks. It will allow the vehicle to slip for a period of time before intervening, so in terms of escape efficiency, I think the second-generation big dog’s ability to get out of trouble will indeed be stronger. However, the feeling that the second-generation big dog gives me is that its throttle travel will be longer. When you step down, you will find that the depth of the throttle will be a little different from the power you want. You may have to step deeper to achieve the power effect you want. This will take some time to get used to.

After a whole day of test driving, the second-generation big dog gave me the feeling that its power is definitely enough. Whether it is driving on city roads or highways, it is completely fine, and it is easy for beginners to get started. And in the off-road area, if you have a certain off-road foundation, plus the various off-road auxiliary features of the big dog, I think you can also become a bit of a strong off-road expert. Of course, this is only for some intermediate and advanced off-road environments. If you want to challenge some very high shell craters or very steep slopes, then I think you should use a hard-core SUV to go wild.

But if you spend 50% or 60% of your time in the city, as I said at the beginning of this article, and the rest of the time you go out and go wild, then this second-generation big dog is fully capable. And it has been upgraded in technology configuration and all aspects. It is much better than the previous generation, and it is thousands of dollars cheaper. So I think for prospective owners who want to get it all in one step and hope to have both. The second-generation big dog is really an excellent SUV that can balance both urban and off-road environments.

Liu Yifei and friends meet without makeup, dress simply and gain a little weight

On March 24, a photo of Liu Yifei partying with friends in London on March 15 was leaked online. The photo shows three men, who may have been working partners Liu Yifei met while filming the movie.

In the photo, Liu Yifei’s hair is tied up, and it looks like it is a private party, so Liu Yifei is not dressed up for the appointment. Liu Yifei is wearing a casual and simple yellow sweater and jeans, and she looks like a girl next door. But she is slightly fat, with a round face and a faint double chin.

In 1979, Jackie Chan had a crush on Mi Xue, expressing his love to Mi Xue with a love letter offensive and a precious sports car of 100,000 yuan, and then the relationship ended. He chased Mi Xue for eight years, and the road was long and hard. Finally, one day he caught up with Mi Xue, and his interest was reduced a lot. He no longer had the strong desire and abnormal excitement he had at the beginning. This is also the fundamental reason why he quickly moved to another love later.

In 1979, Teresa Teng temporarily lived in the United States and met Jackie Chan, who was filming in the United States, and developed a relationship with each other. Jackie Chan said in an interview with "Lu Yu has an appointment" that Lin Fengjiao can get along well with his brothers, and Teresa Teng is "too noble", so in the end he gave up Teresa Teng for his brother and married Lin Fengjiao.

Shanghai taxi incarnation "PM2.5 mobile monitoring station" real-time monitoring of air quality

  Oriental Network reporters Xia Yujie and Cao Lei reported on January 16: "At 11 noon on the 15th, the PM2.5 index of Huaihai Road was 129, and the PM2.5 index of Songhong Road was 138…" In the computer of Tan Hongwei, executive deputy director of the Green Building and New Energy Research Center and professor of the School of Mechanical and Energy Engineering at Tongji University, the large and small road sections in Shanghai showed different colors such as red, orange and yellow according to the pollution index, and the real-time air quality was clear at a glance.

  If you think these data come from fixed environmental quality monitoring stations, you are mistaken. These data, which can be updated almost every second, are all from taxis shuttling through the streets of Shanghai. When the taxi passes you, it has already detected the PM2.5 data around you. So how did the taxi become a "PM2.5 mobile monitoring station"?

  City air "monitoring nose" embedded in taxi overhead lights

  Typically, PM2.5 data comes from government-run environmental quality monitoring stations, which have fixed locations and a small number. In Shanghai, for example, there are only 10 state-controlled stations and 16 city-controlled district-level monitoring stations on 6,340 square kilometers of land.

  "Under such circumstances, how to encrypt the monitoring points to cover blocks and communities, and how to quickly monitor and improve real-time performance inspired our research group’s innovative thinking. Three years ago, we proposed to build a spatial monitoring network of urban air environment including drone-mounted, vehicle-mounted and fixed points, and received the response and support of the team of associate professor Shi Shuchun of Shandong University." Professor Tan Hongwei told the Oriental Network reporter, "We chose to install the equipment in the taxi overhead light, so that the monitoring height is similar to the breathing range of pedestrians, and the taxis running everywhere can also bring the detector into the streets and alleys and bring it to the citizens."

  It is understood that the vehicle-mounted urban air monitoring equipment on taxis is based on the principle of laser detection and installed on taxi overhead lights, overcoming the impact of high temperature, high speed, vibration, wind disturbance, rain and snow, and can simultaneously monitor PM2.5 and PM10 two indicators, real-time transmission of location and monitoring data, successfully realizing the transition from fixed-point monitoring to full-road network monitoring, creating a new idea for air pollution monitoring.

  "Taxi Movement Monitoring" covers 98% of roads in urban areas

  According to reports, the first batch of 30 taxis in Shanghai was officially put into operation in Shanghai in December 2017. Based on the characteristics of taxi running 24 hours a day, each taxi can generate about 27,000 pieces of data a day, basically covering 98% of the city’s core area. Road.

  "Using the taxi as a mobile monitoring station, we can accumulate a large amount of urban ground air environment data every day, providing technical support for the city to carry out fine management." Professor Tan Hongwei said that for example, in the vicinity of construction sites, factory areas, catering blocks, etc., it is easy to monitor the PM2.5 value reflecting the degree of pollution in a timely manner. On this basis, the environmental protection department can strengthen the supervision of the air environment quality of the site in time or take corresponding countermeasures. "And these details are difficult to achieve at fixed monitoring points."

  Picture description: Professor Tan Hongwei introduced to the Oriental Network reporter that the PM2.5 data pattern has been detected by environmental detectors across the city in the past month.

  In response to the "taxi movement monitoring", the Oriental Network reporter found that many netizens also put forward the rationality of its existence. So, can the air quality of the road represent the environmental quality of the region? Motor vehicle exhaust is one of the sources of pollution, and it is really okay to install the detector on the "pollution source"? In this regard, Professor Tan said that with the improvement of vehicle exhaust emission standards, the amount of PM2.5 directly produced by exhaust gas is not much, but more "catalysts" and "raw materials" (nitrogen oxide gas and volatile organic gas) of PM2.5. PM2.5 is the secondary product of these emissions during the diffusion process, so the taxi carrying the detection device will not have a greater impact on the sampling at that time, and can better reflect the pollution situation in small areas. This point has also been proved from more than a year of monitoring.

  "Open a Window" to Understanding the Urban Environment

  "Through this monitoring system, it can also better help people to discover the distribution law of urban air pollution." Professor Tan Hongwei’s team drew the "Shanghai Four Seasons Hourly PM2.5 Concentration Map" based on the monitored data. It can be found that the PM2.5 concentration in Shanghai does not show a significant trend of "decreasing from the city center to the suburbs" like population density and enterprise density. It can be roughly summarized as "the suburbs are integrated, and the east is better than the west." There are also some interesting findings from the map. The PM2.5 concentration of the main roads that are even congested on weekdays is not higher than that of the surrounding areas.

  In addition to using taxis to monitor outdoor air quality, Professor Tan Hongwei’s research group is also working on indoor air quality research. "Our goal is to build a three-dimensional environmental monitoring network on the ground and in the air to help improve the living environment, from outdoor fixed-point monitoring to mobile monitoring (urban public transportation, shared bicycles) and aerial (drone)."

  In order to better understand the city they live in, Professor Tan’s team will further explore cooperation with urban data innovation enterprises to expand the space of data applications and services. "We welcome some volunteers to join the air quality research experiment, and we will install indoor air monitors for them for free," said Tan Hongwei. "The monitoring data will be sent to their mobile phones in real time through the APP, and their homes will also become part of the scientific research."
