For office workers like us, the annual rest time is not only annual leave, but also holidays. The holidays that can satisfy long-distance self-driving are the National Day and the Spring Festival, but during the Spring Festival every day is spent visiting relatives and friends, so naturally there is no time to go out and play. This year's National Day holiday happened to last for 8 days, and my wife always wanted to visit Dunhuang. I thought that I had just bought a new station wagon some time ago - the new Baojun RC-5W. We might as well get there in one step and go on a self-driving trip. Complete the Northwest Great Loop in one go.
As soon as we left, my wife and I made an appointment with a few friends to start this self-driving trip together. Fortunately, these friends are very capable of executing the self-driving trip, and they became interested in self-driving travel as soon as we mentioned it; after all, we usually go there I am used to staying in the city, so this time I can go and see the natural scenery of the Northwest. Our plan is to start from Xi'an, run to Lanzhou first, and then officially start the journey of the Northwest Great Ring, passing through Jiayuguan, Dunhuang, Shuishui Yadan, Chaka Salt Lake and other famous scenic spots. The third car we traveled with was my new Baojun RC-5W, and my friends’ Volkswagen Tuyue and Nissan Sylphy.
On the afternoon of the 30th, my friends and I all agreed to go home from get off work early to pack our luggage, and then set off early to avoid traffic jams. In order to catch up with the schedule, I also told my parents that I would not be able to spend time with them this year. Mid-Autumn Festival. In the process of packing the luggage, I have to say that the advantages of the new Baojun RC-5W station wagon have come into play. The blessing of the "big butt" not only makes it look more elegant, but also has a powerful enough trunk. The capacity is so large that our luggage can be easily put in. This trunk is not only better than a car, but also not inferior to ordinary SUVs.
At about 3 pm, we officially set off and expected to arrive in Lanzhou that evening, a distance of more than 500 kilometers. Fortunately, I started early and there was not much traffic jam. After getting on the highway, I turned on the assisted driving system of the new Baojun RC-5W. I set the speed to 120km/h and the distance between the cars to level 6. After all, you still need to keep the distance between the cars when running on the highway. . After that, the new Baojun RC-5W drove along the lane by itself, and I also found that when cornering, the new Baojun RC-5W would slow down to a certain extent and corner more stably. This is where its corner assist function started. Already working.
We arrived in Lanzhou after 9 pm that night. Our friends all said that we were tired and hungry after driving for so long. In fact, I didn’t feel much at all. The assisted driving function of the new Baojun RC-5W saved me a lot of trouble on the highway. I also took advantage of the assisted driving to make a food guide. My friends all said they wanted to eat authentic Lanzhou Ramen, and they were relieved to leave the task of finding a restaurant to me. While driving, I said to the new Baojun RC-5W, "Look for a nearby Lanzhou ramen restaurant." Then the Internet of Vehicles system recommended a number of gourmet restaurants to me. I selected the nearest one with my voice and followed the navigation. I went there, but I didn’t expect the taste to be quite authentic. After eating, we went back to the hotel to rest and reorganize. On the morning of the 1st, we officially started our trip to the Northwest Great Loop.
Starting from Lanzhou, we first went to Baita Temple, then Zhangye and Jiayuguan. Along the way, the New Baojun RC-5W also provided a lot of convenience for my wife. Because the rear space of the new Baojun RC-5W is very large, my wife would go to the back seat to rest half-ly when she was tired from riding in the car. My friend’s girlfriend also disliked the uncomfortable sitting in the SUV and wanted to change her car. When I parked at Qinghai Lake, the last stop of the Grand Ring Line, several young people came over to ask me what kind of car my car was. It could be seen that these young people may also be car fans, and maybe they also like station wagons like me. I told them about my car, and then we talked about our views on station wagons. In fact, I originally chose the new Baojun RC-5W because it is a station wagon with a more unique body line. I just don’t want to choose some sedans or SUVs that are more popular. The station wagon just meets my needs.
This self-driving trip on the Northwest Grand Ring Road is the first long-distance self-driving trip of my new Baojun RC-5W. During this self-driving trip, the intelligent technology and space of the new Baojun RC-5W are very impressive. It really improved my travel experience. And this kind of experience is something that cars and SUVs cannot provide. With such a perfect experience, my wife and I will definitely take the new Baojun RC-5W to travel to more places and see more scenery in the future.
