Bike navigation is currently available on Google Maps around the world, but only in the United States for the time being.

Ask about M9 information and redefine the flagship SUV!

  In recent years, cars have become a necessity in every family life, so the role of cars in family life has become more and more important. It should not only undertake the needs of families, but also undertake the role of business socialization. In this case, it is very necessary to choose a car with large space and high intelligence. For this reason, new energy and traditional fuel vehicles have joined the market scramble. Among them, the outstanding representative of new energy is no exception. After the new M7 was listed on September 12, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology disclosed the information of the M9, which means that this flagship model positioned as a full-size SUV will be listed soon. This car claims to be the best SUV within 10 million yuan, and it is said that it can directly challenge Maibakh GLS, BMW X7 and Land Rover Range Rover, and can fully crush the ideal L9.

  Domineering and elegant, asking M9 is more fashionable.

  Although different people have different opinions on the design of the appearance, it can be seen from the declaration of this exposure that compared with other models, the front face of the M9 in Wenjie adopts a fully enclosed design style, and it is also equipped with Huawei’s million-pixel smart headlights, with a penetrating light group, which enhances the recognition and shows a full sense of technology. Compared with other models, the face value of the M9 is higher.

  In terms of face value creation, the world M9 is at the forefront of fashion. The new car of the same brand, Wenjie New M7, does not fall in the wind. Wenjie New M7 offers five body colors, namely, gold-plated black, deep space gray, pine frost green, azure blue and ice crystal silver, and the main appearance colors are ice crystal silver and azure blue. The front face is full of domineering, and the slender body perfectly harmonizes fortitude and elegance, handsome and elegant.

  Compared with the configuration, the M9 has more temperature.

  From the aspect of configuration, the configuration of these models is indeed slightly inferior to that of the M9. When it comes to traditional fuel flagship models such as Maibakh GLS and BMW X7, they are basically equipped with more conventional configurations such as fatigue reminder, anti-lock braking, LED daytime running lights, brake assist, lane departure warning and 360-degree parking image. Compared with the new energy star player such as Ideal L9, the advantages displayed by M9 in the world are also obvious. Backed by Huawei, Wenjie M9 is equipped with ADS 2.0 advanced intelligent driver and HarmonyOS 4.0 cockpit, which will arm the intelligence to the extreme, especially the equipped Xiaoyi intelligent assistant, who knows more about cars and you. Even if you interrupt your speech, it can accurately obtain your needs and provide accurate services. Barrier-free man-machine communication will allow drivers and passengers to enjoy an unprecedented ride experience.

  It is worth mentioning that the HarmonyOS Intelligent Cockpit System is also standard on the new M7, except that the new M7 adopts HarmonyOS Intelligent Cockpit 3.0, and the super desktop brings more mobile phone applications, and the mobile phone "touches" can realize the continuous circulation of applications such as drama and games. In addition, HUAWEI MagLink in the back row has developed a new way to play space scenes. Huawei tablets can be hung and connected immediately, realizing multi-device linkage. The smart cockpit changes into a personal workshop, a multi-person conference room and a children’s study, and the magic space is flexibly switched to create a "mobile whole house intelligence".

  Compared with space, the M9 is more spacious and comfortable.

  Finally, let’s take a look at the spatial comparison of these cars. Although these cars are all full-size SUVs, the size design is still different. Specifically, Maibakh GLS has a length, width and height of 5210/2030/1838mm and a wheelbase of 3135mm, while BMW X7 has a length, width and height of 5170/2000mm/1835mm and a wheelbase of 3105mm, and Land Rover Range Rover has a length, width and height of 5252/2047/1870mm and a wheelbase of 3197mm, respectively. Comparatively speaking, the car body size of the car body of the car body M9 is 5230mm, the car width is 1999mm, the car height is 1800mm, and the wheelbase is 3110 mm. Compared with its competitors, it is at the leading level, with more momentum and more comfortable riding space. The space of M9 in the world is shown in these models, so it really should be "far ahead".

  Also known as "far ahead" is the new M7, which is superior to its peers in terms of space building. The body size is 5020mm×1945mm×1760mm, the effective space inside the car reaches 3338mm, and the "occupancy rate" is 66.3% ahead of its peers. Through ingenious design, the comfort of people inside the car is improved. It can be said that the listing of the new M7 will redefine the medium and large SUV.

  At the new product launch conference of Huawei in April this year, Yu Chengdong said: "M9 is the best SUV in 10 million" when he previewed the new M9 car. From the above aspects, whether it is the new M7 or the M9, it is full of black technology to meet the diversified needs of different users. If you have plans to buy a full-size SUV, you may wish to wait for the M9, which will be listed at the end of the year. It is a sincere work and I believe it will surprise you!

The tourism market is welcoming the "hottest summer file". Where are you going to take a walk?

This summer, the national tourism market recovered strongly, and the number of tourists and income rose together. Data from a number of tourism platforms show that the summer tourism market is expected to surpass the same period in 2019, and parent-child tours, study tours and summer vacations have become popular choices.

The tourism market continues to heat up.

Recently, the high temperature has continued all over the country, but Wei Qian, a tourist from Anhui, felt a rare coolness in Kunming. "The temperature here is too comfortable, which is in sharp contrast with the heat in other places." Since the beginning of summer, the average temperature in Yunnan Province is only 22.9℃, and Kunming, the spring city where the weather is often like February and March, has become a summer resort.

Not only in Kunming, but also in Yunnan, you can wander around the mountains and enjoy the coolness in summer. In Dali, at the foot of Cangshan Mountain and beside Erhai Lake, tourists punch in along the ecological corridor and feel the slow life. In the Stone Forest, where the rocks are green and the peaks are beautiful, visitors can experience the Yi culture and appreciate the wonders of nature.

Entering the summer tourist season, in addition to the traditional popular routes such as Kunming, Dali, Lijiang and Diqing, tourists from Qujing, Xishuangbanna, Pu ‘er and Baoshan also continue to increase. In the past few days, the flight take-off and landing and passenger throughput in Kunming have increased sharply. On July 14th, there were 1,005 take-off and landing flights, a three-year high and 143,800 passengers were transported. Yunnan Railway Department sent 300,000 passengers every day, a year-on-year increase of 20.6%.

"The four hotels in the park were fully booked two weeks in advance." Fu Zhixin, deputy general manager of the marketing center of OCT Fantasy Resort in Xiangyang, Hubei Province, said that since the beginning of this summer vacation, the resort has attracted a large number of foreign tourists. "It is estimated that more than 2 million tourists will be received in the summer, reaching a new high." Fu Zhixin said.

Tongcheng data shows that from July 11 to 17, the number of air ticket bookings increased by more than 120% compared with the same period in 2019, and the number of hotel bookings nationwide increased by 150.53% compared with the same period in 2019. "The summer vacation has a good start." According to Lan Xing, the person in charge of Ctrip’s air ticket marketing, the popularity of this year’s summer vacation benefits from the continuous recovery of the tourism market. The superimposed airport and airline companies continue to introduce discounts, and there are marketing activities such as live broadcast and big promotion to further stimulate passengers’ travel needs.

"From the ranking of popular starting points and destinations, Shanghai ranks among the top cities in the country." Cheng Chaogong, chief researcher of Tongcheng Research Institute, said that with the gradual normalization of the tourism market, the demand for summer tourism has been released in a centralized way, coupled with the strong recovery of student flow and parent-child tourists, and the passenger flow in summer has continued to run at a high level. Shanghai is a hot spot for summer tourism destinations and tourist sources. In the first half of the summer, the tourism market showed diversified and urban characteristics.

Research tour becomes popular in depth.

"Parent-child research is a hot topic in the summer tourism market in Shanghai." Cheng Chaogong introduced that since July, the attention of "research" products in the Shanghai area of Tongcheng Travel Platform has increased by 183% from the previous month. The high temperature weather for several days in a row has stimulated the study tour of the museum, and the cool and refreshing museum has attracted many parents and students.

In view of the "bursting" of the passenger flow in major museums, Shanghai Culture and Tourism Bureau announced that it would organize 17 museums including Shanghai Museum, Shanghai History Museum and World Expo Museum to carry out "Museum Wonderful Night" activities, and pilot licensed tour guides to take groups to explain and other measures to meet the diverse needs of tourists.

The research tour is not only hot in Shanghai. The research team of Shanghe children’s theme "The world is a textbook" also arrived in the Three Gorges Dam tourist area in Yichang, Hubei Province in July. In the Three Gorges Project Museum, Dou Xin, a visiting professor at China Communication University and an ambassador for cultural exchange of the national multi-functional economic and trade platform of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, took the history and poems related to the Three Gorges as an index and gave a wonderful and vivid study tour class on the Yangtze River literature and history for SCO children.

Since the beginning of this year, a variety of research tour products launched by the Three Gorges Dam tourist area and Qu Yuan’s hometown scenic area have been popular, with 38,000 students and 30,000 students respectively. "From Yichang to Chongqing, it is not only a corridor of Tang poetry and Song poetry, but also a cultural enrichment place of the Three Kingdoms, and it is also the only way to appreciate the Three Gorges Dam, a big country." Dou Wei said.

"With the increasing demand for personalization and diversity of users, the travel products that used to be superficial can no longer fully attract users." Cheng Chaogong believes that only by digging deep into the needs of users and creating more tourism products with cultural connotation and humanistic spirit and more urban characteristics can the market vitality be maintained. For example, summer City walk has become a popular way for young tourists to explore the city. Wu Kang Road, Anfu Road, Yongkang Road, Fuxing West Road and Fuxing Middle Road have attracted many young people to "punch in".

Make concerted efforts to provide good service.

"Tricholoma matsutake in Shangri-La, truffles in Lijiang … There are many kinds of fungi to eat, and visitors are expected to come and experience them." Lou Kewei, deputy director of Yunnan Cultural Tourism Department, said. On the basis of market research, Yunnan Cultural Tourism Department launched 10 boutique routes, including cultural tourism integration, outdoor sports and other themes. "These 10 lines are hot-selling products that can stand the market test." Liu Zhimin, vice president of Yunnan Travel Agency Association, said.

Since the beginning of this year, Hubei Province has arranged nearly 1 billion yuan in financial assistance to promote the high-quality development of cultural tourism. Among them, 400 million yuan is used to issue coupons for cultural tourism, 200 million yuan is used to support the opening of new international routes, 153 million yuan is used to encourage travel agencies to explore the tourist market outside the province, and nearly 200 million yuan is used for publicity and promotion. At the same time, coordinate financial institutions to provide loan extension, interest subsidies and other support to cultural tourism enterprises.

Hubei Wenlv Group co-ordinates 38 scenic spots and 40 hotels to launch a series of measures to benefit the people. In Shennongjia, Enshi Grand Canyon, Jingmen Geek Park and other scenic spots, visitors can enter the park free of charge with the college entrance examination and senior high school entrance examination admission ticket. The "Tour Hubei" platform started the distribution of 2023 coupons in Xianning, and 15,000 coupons have been distributed.

Railways, civil aviation and other departments also do their best to provide services to ensure the safety and stability of the summer vacation. "Airline self-service change card" and "one-stop comprehensive service counter" … China Eastern Airlines launched a series of special services to bring passengers a faster and more convenient service experience. Yunnan Xiangpeng Airlines has increased its capacity adjustment, and actively responded by thickening safety management and strengthening skills upgrading. China Railway Kunming Bureau Group Co., Ltd. scientifically allocates transportation capacity to meet the travel needs of passengers, and actively innovates service measures to enhance the travel experience of passengers.
