Chapter 314: Buying a Car
Yang Hongxin is a courier of SF Express, due to the complete ban on electric three-wheeled vehicles in Wanghai City, Yang Hongxin usually drives an N-hand Jetta car to deliver express delivery. But when I was working today, the Jetta broke down halfway and was towed to a nearby car repair shop. The repairman checked it, it was a cylinder, the engine was scrapped, and he either spent 20,000 yuan to replace the engine or buy a new car. This broken Jetta may be too old, all parts are on the verge of scrapping, only this year it has been overhauled three times, and now the engine is broken again, Yang Hongxin doesn't want to repair it very much.
Yang Hongxin rented a car at a nearby car rental office and delivered the rest of the courier. When I got home in the evening, I discussed it with my wife Lu Xiu and decided to buy a new car.
The next morning, Yang Hongxin called the manager, understood the situation, asked for a leave, and then went out with his wife, planning to go to the automobile city to see, and then decide what car to buy. Walking out of the district, I just wanted to use the taxi software to call an online car-hailing car, when I saw a sedan painted in grass green with a taxi logo driving over. Although this car seems to be different from the color of an ordinary taxi, but it is always a taxi, Yang Hongxin hurriedly stood on the side of the road and waved, the green taxi turned on its turn signal, slowly slowed down, leaned over, and finally stopped in front of the two.
"Husband, look, this taxi doesn't have a driver!"
Yang Hongxin opened the car door and was about to sit in, when he heard his wife Lu Xiu shouting there Yang Hongxin's body stiffened, and he hurriedly looked at the driving position, there was really no one there, not only was there no one, not even the steering wheel, accelerator, brake, etc
"I'll go, there's really no one, so how did this car come over?"
At this time, the large central control screen in the car lit up, and an elf holding a magic wand appeared on it, and said in a sweet voice: "Hello two passengers, I am a driverless taxi put by Xingchen Automobile. You can call me a driving elf, or an elf. The car is currently in trial operation and is free to ride. ”
Yang Hongxin and Lu Xiu glanced at each other, and then asked with some hesitation: "Wife, this car seems to be unmanned, shall we sit?" ”
When Lu Xiu inquired about the car information last night, he saw a report on the website of Xingchen Automobile on the website of Autohome, and the article mentioned that Xingchen Automobile launched unmanned taxis in Wanghai Shengchengguan City, but they did not expect to encounter it. Lu Xiuke is much bolder than Yang Hongxin, and he is also very curious about new things, so he opened the passenger seat very simply and sat in.
Seeing that his wife had already gotten into the car, Yang Hongxin had no choice but to follow and get into the car, but he was also a little curious and wanted to understand how the driverless car worked, so he didn't sit in the back seat, but went around to the left side of the car and sat in the driver's seat.
After the two of them were ready, the trip computer spoke again and asked, "May I ask the two passengers, where is your destination?" ”
Yang Hongxin was still looking at the interior of the car in a novel way, and when he heard the destination, he replied casually: "Go to the Motor City"
"Received, please fasten your seat belts for the two passengers, and the car will depart immediately and head to the Motor City."
After the two fastened their seat belts, the green taxi automatically released the handbrake and started, accelerated very smoothly to change lanes, and drove forward.
On the road, Yang Hongxin watched the taxi change lanes, overtake, and merge in a daze, and the red light was encountered in front, and the taxi automatically stopped, and the distance between the car in front and the car in front was always controlled at about one meter, and the gap between the front and rear was not more than five centimeters, just like the measurement.
"Tut-tut, this automatic driving is also too powerful, we have so many cars and so many traffic lights in Wanghai City, it can easily deal with it. Wife, can we buy a car with automatic driving function? With autonomous driving, it is much easier for me to deliver deliveries. ”
Lu Xiu turned on her mobile phone, found out the report she had read yesterday, handed it to her husband, and said: "This taxi is Xingchen Moonlight, which is a real level 5 automatic driving, and the automatic driving of other cars cannot reach this level." Here's a report about the car that you can take a look at. ”
Yang Hongxin took the phone, slid his finger, and browsed the article, with some regrets: "The price is 128,000, some of which are beyond our budget, and the automatic driving function of the current car sold is shielded, which is a pity." ”
Lu Xiu pointed to the parameters of the stars and moonlight on the mobile phone, and said: "Isn't it more than 20,000 yuan, let's not take it out, look here, a charge can run 1000 kilometers, and 100 kilometers consume 12.4kh, you calculate how much this saves compared to fuel vehicles." You are a courier again, and you run at least more than 100 kilometers, and in a few months, we can save 20,000 yuan. ”
Yang Hongxin: "Okay, okay, you obey me, let's go and see these two stars and moonlight first." Elf, change your destination and go to the Star Auto 4S shop. ”
Half a day later, Yang Hongxin and Lv Xiu arrived at the Xingchen Automobile 4S store, which is also located in the automobile city, but the location is a little remote, in a very close position. After Mr. and Mrs. Yang got out of the car, the taxi they were in automatically drove forward a few meters and stopped in a parking space that marked the wireless charging area, and began to replenish the power.
"It's so smart, it would be nice if the Xingchen Moonlight sold in the 4S store could also open autopilot."
Lu Xiu looked at the taxi with some longing, but was soon pulled into the 4S store by Yang Hongxin.
Half a time later, Yang Hongxin drove a pink star moonlight and left the 4S store. In the passenger seat, Lu Xiu smiled unusually happily, and when he saw that Yang Hongxin still had a tense face, he wanted to tease him, so he said in an unusually soft voice: "Honey, are you not happy to choose this pink moonlight?" ”
Yang Hongxin smiled bitterly and said: "Willing is willing, but I just think it's weird, let my colleagues see me driving a pink car, and they don't know how to laugh at me." ”
Lu Xiu: "What's wrong with pink, I like pink, we have money, and I'll buy you a Xingchen Chenxi, this moonlight will be driven by me." ”
……
Turning around, Yang Hongxin drove the pink moonlight to work, and after being seen by his colleagues, they did laugh at him a few words, and when he was justified as "his wife chose", there would be no one, who let those young people have no wives. After a few more years, the colleagues looked at Yang Hongxin's starry moonlight gaze, and there was only envy and jealousy.
"Brother Yang, you didn't lie to us, this car is really so power-efficient, it only costs a dozen yuan to send a courier?"
Yang Hongxin: "Almost, according to the parameters, it is 12.4kh100km, I ran a few times, and the power consumption is a little more than this number, about 13-14 kWh of electricity for 100 kilometers." ”:,,,
