After more than half a year of "retreatment practice", I believe many friends can't help but feel at hiking. Ayi, a friend of the editor next door, just brought up a new car not long ago - Changan Oushang X7, so she shouted every day to find the editor to go out with her. The purpose is very obvious: I will act as a driver and photographer.
It is midsummer, and the temperature in the south is as high as 37 degrees. Going to the beach to enjoy the water and cool down is undoubtedly the best choice. Taking advantage of the rare weekend break from the editor, the brick mover, a journey that was about to go began. What surprised me was that the young lady also made an appointment with a best friend to go out for a trip.
And our self-driving destination unanimously decided to choose Yangjiang Hailing Island . In Guangdong, Hailing Island is undoubtedly one of the most worth visiting islands. As early as 2005, Hailing Island was rated as one of the top ten most beautiful islands in China by China National Geographic. It is located on the southwest coast of Yangjiang City, Guangdong Province. It is a rare natural ecological island at home and abroad. It is known as an uncarved jadeite. There are national AAAAAA scenic spots on the island - Dajiaowan , Mawei Island , Shili Yintan and Tianlu Fengmill Mountain. They also enjoy the beautiful reputation of "Northern Beidaihe" and "Oriental Hawaii".
And for Ayi's new car, Changan Oushang X7, the editor is very familiar with it, because I had already tested the car last year. At that time, I felt that the overall product strength of this car and the sense of grade created through design and meticulous workmanship exceeded its price. This is a car made with care, not built by stacking configurations.
Whether it is the styling design or the interior workmanship and materials, the texture of Changan Oushang X7 gives people is quite good. In addition, its space performance is also excellent. The seats are very wide, thick and soft. At the same time, the second row of seats is almost a large sofa. In addition, the floor is fully flat. Even if you travel with 5 adults, you won’t feel crowded at all.
For long-distance self-driving travel, another necessary condition is the large trunk space, and Changan Oushang also meets this very well. Its body size is 4705x1860x1720mm and its wheelbase is 2780mm. In addition to having excellent riding space, the trunk space performance can also deal with long-distance travel for families.
packed up and we set off happily. The whole journey from Guangzhou to Hailing Island in Yangjiang is about 300 kilometers. However, because the road was being built on the Shenhai Expressway section, and we had dinner halfway, it took us more than 6 hours to get to Hailing Island.
But the good thing is that in addition to driving lightly, Changan Oushang X7 also has automatic cruise function. In addition to its very wide and comfortable seats, it makes people not feel obvious fatigue when driving for long distances. It is worth mentioning that Changan Oushang X7 is also equipped with DMS driver fatigue monitoring and LDW lane departure warning system. These two configurations are particularly practical when driving on highways and make driving safer.
In terms of intelligent configuration, Changan Oushang X7 is equipped with a full LCD instrument panel, a 10.25-inch floating color touch screen. It uses the industry's first 5G-compatible smart car IMX8 chip, and the open OnStyle2.0 Oushang intelligent networking system makes its functions quite comprehensive and the operation of the car system functions is also very smooth. When we are driving, we just need to wake up the car system through "Hello Xiaoou" to realize various functions of voice operation, such as opening the sunroof, playing music, navigating to the destination, etc., which is very convenient.
At the same time, Changan Oushang X7 also provides APA5.0 one-click fully automatic parking system. For novices, this function is undoubtedly very practical, and our young lady car owners also like this function. In addition, it is also equipped with a unique facial recognition system at the same level. Among the 100,000-level models, Changan Oushang X7's intelligent performance is indeed the leader in the same level.Therefore, driving the Changan Aushang X7 is indeed a very pleasant thing.
. Before officially entering Hailing Island, the only channel for all tourists to enter and exit Hailing Island by land is the Hailing Dike, which has a total length of 4,625 meters and is also the longest Lianlu seawall in Guangdong. There are seas on both sides of the embankment, where you can feel the "snow waves in the embankment" and watch the tide and the moon and the sunrise.
Dajiaowan enjoys slow life
It was already evening after checking into the hotel, and everyone was hungry. After dinner, we came to Big Kok Bay Beach to take casual photos. Dajiao Bay is the beach closest to the center of Hailing Island town. It is a must-visit place for almost all tourists and the busiest place on Hailing Island at night. The sand on the Dajiao Bay beach is relatively slippery, with the entire beach being 2.45 kilometers long and 50 to 60 meters wide.
night is undoubtedly the best time to walk on the beach. The sea breeze blows on your face, and it is so comfortable to listen to the waves of sea waves. In addition, many tourists set off fireworks here to make the night sky on the beach even brighter. Sitting here quietly makes people feel very relaxed and enjoyable.
unknowingly it was already past 12 a.m., but there are still many tourists. If I hadn't been to see the sunrise the next morning, I thought I could have set up a tent here and listen to Haitao spend the night.
Watching the sunrise by the sea
decades of life, how many times have you seen the sunrise? To be honest, this is the second time I have watched the sunrise. The first time I was driving in Xinjiang a few years ago. At 5:30 in the morning, we got up and set out to watch the sunrise. There are many places where we can watch the sunrise on Hailing Island. We chose the observation deck of "Nanhai No. 1".
However, the weather in the morning was not ideal. When the sun just rose, many dark clouds were blocked. The drivers of the motorcycle passing by said that today's luck was not good. Many tourists thought that today's sunrise could no longer be seen, and walked back one after another. But when we "watch the celestial phenomena on the sun", we believe that these dark clouds will surely blow away and the sun will inevitably sprinkle on the sea.
As expected, after waiting for more than 10 minutes, the dark clouds began to slowly dissipate, and the sun finally penetrated the clouds, spreading a layer of golden color to the waves. And between the light, there is a halo that we have never seen before, which really makes us excited.
Maybe the same is true for life. We will encounter many difficulties and setbacks. When you think that the hope ahead is slim and are ready to give up, perhaps as long as we persevere, the light of victory is ahead. And from the top of the dark clouds to the brilliance of light, it was only a moment.
Zhapo Fishing Port feel the local atmosphere
After watching the sunrise, it is most suitable to go to Zhapo Town center for an authentic breakfast. This is a gathering place for local residents and the most "busy" place on Hailing Island. Here, we can also feel the most authentic local cultural scene.
It is worth mentioning that Zhapo Fishing Port is located next to the center of Zhapo Town. Zhapo Fishing Port is one of the top ten famous fishing ports in the country and is quite famous in Southeast Asia. For tourists who like food, you can taste seafood and shellfish seafood that are rare in the market at Zhapo.
However, May 1st to August 16th is the fishing moratorium of Yangjiang City . Although we did not see the busy scene of a large number of fish landing, a large number of fishing boats are parked neatly in the port, but it looks very spectacular.
Watching the windmill on the top of Tianlu Mountain
Many people have seen the wind power station, but I believe few people have experienced it up close. Thanks to the guidance of local friends, we were able to feel the different island landscapes.There have been many wind turbines around Hailing Island in recent years, and there is no doubt that there will be more and more environmentally friendly power generation equipment.
Just as the development of cars is becoming more and more environmentally friendly, just like the Changan Oushang X7 we drove this time, it uses the new Blue Whale 1.5T engine, with a maximum horsepower of 178 horsepower and a maximum torque of 265 Nm. Its performance has become one of the mainstream joint venture brands. Such power data performance not only has reached the leading level among the same-class models, but it is not inferior even in the face of joint venture brands such as Honda's 1.5T engine.
all the mountain climbing sections, many of which have relatively large slopes and are more urgent. Fortunately, the power performance of Changan Oushang X7 gives us enough confidence that the engine speed can be easily climbed up the mountain at basically 2200-2600rpm. In terms of gearbox, Changan Oushang X7 uses a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission independently developed by Changan UK R&D Center, which has a high transmission efficiency of 94.3%, which also adds points to fuel economy. In terms of adjustment, the gear shifting of this gearbox focuses more on smoothness, and the driving experience is more comfortable, which is more pleasing to family users.
Also worthy of praise is that as a compact urban SUV, the control performance of Changan Oushang X7 when driving on mountain roads also surprised us. Its steering is relatively light, and the suspension support is quite good. The body will not have too much roll when cornering, and it will also be quite flexible in detours. This is actually due to the fact that Changan Oushang X7 is equipped with a dual-chassis floppy connection design standard for the entire series. In addition to better filtering vibrations, it also brings good handling, and it is very easy to drive on mountain roads.
And when we reach the top of the windmill mountain, we feel the huge wind turbine up close, and there is a sense of shock invisibly, which is also a witness to the rapid development of our motherland. Just like today's domestic brands of cars, their progress speed is obvious to everyone. At the same time, first-tier independent brands have also increased R&D investment and fully mastered core technologies, among which Changan Automobile Group is the most active. Relying on the global research and release of Changan Automobile's six countries and nine regions, the most stringent test and verification system in China, and Changan Auchan's exclusive Japan Yokohama Design Center, Changan Auchan provides quality assurance for customers to create family-quality models. I believe that in the near future, domestic brand cars can also shine in the world
Mawei Island plays with water and watch sunset
As the last attraction of the journey, going to Mawei Island to watch sunset and play with water is a very good choice. The westernmost corner of Mawei Island is the best place to watch the sun sinking sea, also known as "Ponytail Sunset".
Mawei Island is still in an undeveloped stage, with the island covered with trees and strange stones. The most commendable thing is that there is also a large shallow beach on Mawei Island, and the waves are very smooth, so many tourists play in the water here.
And Ayi and her best friend also had fun here, and they didn't reluctantly embark on their way home until night fell.
It was already 9 pm after dinner, but although it was driving at night, we still felt very relieved. Because the entire Changan Oushang X7 is equipped with LED headlights standard, it is equipped with ten safety systems such as ABS + EBD + TCS, and the high-strength steel ring body design with a proportion of 75% of high-strength steel, it makes people feel safe when driving. I believe it can also protect the family's long-distance travel, which is also one of the reasons why the young lady chose to buy the Changan Oushang X7.
Conclusion: Although this short trip to Hailing Island only has one and a half days to visit, the natural beauty and scenery of Windmill Mountain make us feel worthwhile. If there is enough time, I think it is better to go to Hailing Island for a self-driving trip next time, and it is most suitable to stay for about 5 days. Through the past two days of long-distance and mountain road driving, the performance of our car Changan Oushang X7 also made all members feel very satisfied.What surprised me the most was that even under full load conditions, under 80% highway + 20% urban road conditions, its fuel consumption is only 6.4L/100km, and its fuel economy is quite good. There is no doubt that Changan Oushang X7 is indeed a family car with very balanced product strength.
At this point, our trip to Hailing Island comes to an end first. However, we also took aerial shots of a large number of video footage, and the exciting video blockbusters will be broadcast in the future. If you want to experience the more shocking scenery of Hailing Island, remember to continue to follow us.
