Weather in Norwegian Har Dangel Fjord

Bergen, the starting point of advancing into the fjord

Although the first city we arrived in was Oslo, the starting point of go on road trip this time was Bergen. It takes seven hours by train from Oslo to Bergen. Oslo Railway Station is located in the city center. On the way to the railway station, we can see shops selling traditional Norwegian clothes, which are made of wool and hand-sewn, with wide skirts, sweaters, cloaks and hats with natural colors. These clothes are expensive, but they wear well in Norway. It is said that Norwegians' love for 18 or 19 century complex country clothes is also famous in northern Europe.

Because Norway is mountainous and near the sea, it is difficult to see the vast plains during the train trip in the past day, but it is more common to see mountains around lakes and rural houses dotted with scenery. As the train passes through the mountain tunnel frequently, we are getting closer and closer to Bergen. It is called the entrance to the Norwegian fjord. The fjord is also the most magnificent scenery in Scandinavia. There are four fjords in Norway, namely Gai Langille Fjord, Songgen Fjord, Hadanger Fjord and Luze Fjord. Bergen is located in the middle of two western fjords, Songgen Fjord and Hadanger Fjord. In fact, people can choose different modes of transportation to get to Bergen, such as self-driving, train, ferry and plane. Different vehicles can feel different scenery.

When the train entered Bergen Railway Station, it was raining, which made us appreciate the title of "Rain City" when we first arrived. In the next few days, it can be found that it is normal to be cloudy or sunny here, which reflects the distinctive Nordic climate characteristics. A Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid is waiting for us in Bergen. This plug-in hybrid four-door sports car will prove how suitable it is for Norwegian terrain in the next three days.

From the moment you get into the car, you can feel the characteristics of a sports car. The driving position is relatively low. Of course, it can be adjusted in many directions until it is adjusted to the position that the driver is used to. Rain falls on the car body and windshield, and tiny water droplets make this sports car with Porsche's simple and classic design have a quiet and crystal-clear feeling. Put the photographic equipment and suitcase in the trunk, and we set off like this. I don't know what the road ahead is like, so I boldly follow the guidance of navigation to those unknown places.

The weather changes with the winding mountain road.

The first day's driving plan is from Bergen to Ulens Wang area at the end of Ha Dangel Fjord. The whole journey is about 160 km, and the journey takes more than two hours. Starting from Bergen, you can naturally drive into the mountain road. After leaving the city, we stepped on the accelerator and immediately felt the reaction of the engine. After that, I walked along the mountain, crossed one tunnel after another several kilometers long, and then got out of the tunnel, always amazed at the changes in the scenery of heaven and earth. The lane keeping auxiliary system on vehicles can play an important role in multi-tunnel highways. Whenever the vehicle body slightly deviates from its own lane due to visual fatigue, the system will prompt the driver by vibrating the steering wheel. At the same time, the car is also equipped with a lane change assist system with steering assist function, so that the driver can clearly feel that the car is actively fine-tuning the steering wheel to help the driver adjust the direction.

At first, the mountain road was two-way and two-lane. Generally, the speed limit is 80 km/h, and the speed limit varies from 40 to 60 km/h in case of road repair or turning. The head-up display function on Porsche windshield can help drivers pay attention to the changes of speed limit and navigation information carelessly. Perhaps it is the challenge of the mountain road to the newcomers, perhaps it is the reason for the change of scenery. Driving in Norway is not easy to get sleepy and bored. The other side of the mountain is the sea. Before reaching the fjord, we can realize that this country is in nature. This is not a country with a strong urban agglomeration. Historically, villages and towns are all over mountains and rivers, and each place has a different dialect. The course and story of the Vikings, A Journey of Natural Selection, continues to this day, reflecting the close relationship between the Norwegians and nature, and their love for the mountains and rivers in China is closely linked with their love for the country.

1969, oil was discovered in Norway. From then on, it walked out of the harsh natural conditions and began to enjoy the wealth endowed by nature. So when driving in Norway, you can feel that the roads here are well built and all the safety facilities are scientific and complete. Although many times you will encounter continuous turns, as long as you regulate driving, safety can be guaranteed. And that's why we can choose a sports car to drive by ourselves. Because, in a country with well paved mountain roads, a sports car can better reflect its driving ability and make people feel comfortable.

Panamera 4 E-Hybrid has wide body, low height and wide tires, so it naturally has good grounding performance. Its power system consists of a 2.9-liter V6 twin-turbo engine, a motor and an 8-speed PDK Porsche dual-clutch gearbox. It only takes 4.6 seconds to accelerate from standstill to 100 km/h, and the top speed reaches 278 km/h. When driving on mountain roads, drivers are easy to step on oil between corners. Not to mention its chassis ability, it is both comfortable and sporty. The chassis of this car adopts PASM Porsche Active Suspension Management System, which is an electronic damping control system. It can actively and continuously adjust the damping force of each wheel according to the driving conditions and driving modes, thus reducing the body movement and ensuring the comfort of each seat.

After gradually adapting to the Norwegian road conditions, we also approached the first day's destination-Ha Dangel Fjord. It is said that this is a relatively gentle fjord in Norway, and its pastoral scenery is its characteristic. We parked at the foot of the mountain, next to a big supermarket, which not only sells food and daily necessities, but also provides fresh lunch. This is also the embodiment of Norway's developed transportation. In addition to perfect road traffic, there are various shops and even takeaways in small towns in Norway. In some gas stations, there are already charging pile facilities that meet European and Japanese standards. This makes it possible for long-distance self-drivers who drive new energy vehicles like us.

When we gradually understood the performance of this car, we began to observe its interior. What impressed the reporter the most was its center console and dashboard. The center console rising to the front of the car adopts a glass appearance, which increases the sense of texture and technology. The key of that touch sensing function are evenly distribute. The display screen is 12.3 inches, which can be touched, and can display vehicle information, entertainment information, mobile phone information and other functions. Compared with the center console, the dashboard has a stronger sense of sports design. For Porsche, the tachometer must be placed in the middle of the dashboard. There are two 7-inch displays on both sides of the tachometer. The left display contains speedometer and thermometer, while the right display displays other information, including navigation, energy application, basic vehicle information and so on. On the far left side of the dashboard, there is a small area that can display speed limit information in real time.

The steering wheel of this car is not heavy, so it is easy for women to drive. There is a driving mode selection dial on the right side of the steering wheel, which shows four driving modes of this hybrid car, namely "E-Power", "Hybrid Auto", "Sport" and "Sport Plus". Walking on the mountain road, you can see the change of the long battery cell display from the dashboard, and the battery is also charging and discharging between the throttles. In pure electric drive mode, the cruising range of this car can reach 5 1 km.

The navigation shows that just cross the sea.

At the end of Dangel Fjord is the Ullens Swan District. There is a hotel that has been handed down for five generations, called Renswann Family Inn. It is said that this hotel is very popular with travelers and must be booked long in advance. However, the most impressive thing about this hotel is that although it enjoys the unique scenery of Ha Dangel Fjord, the decoration and management of the hotel are very simple. At dinner time, the guests staying in the hotel eat at the hotel, set the table number and have breakfast the next day. Everyone still eats according to the existing table number, giving people an old-fashioned elegance and warmth. Although Norway has become the second richest country in the world and the fifth largest producer of natural gas because of the discovery of oil, although the beauty of the fjord has brought Norway rich tourism resources, and although the fishery here is equally developed, the Norwegians still give people a simple feeling.

It's like a cafe in Oslo in the morning. People still get into work as early as possible. Ingvi SchlegestTaylor, CEO of Norwegian Bank Investment Management Company, once said, "In this country, in the past, there was not enough food in winter unless it was saved and stored in advance." Perhaps it is the habit that ancestors left in their blood. The Norwegian people feel pragmatic and simple. In the fjord area, people choose outdoor sports such as mountaineering, hiking, cycling and boating, but they rarely spend money to build high-rise buildings.

Driving from Ha Dangel Fjord to the southwest, we will arrive at Stavanger, which is the entrance of Rus Fjord and also adjacent to Beihai Oilfield. The companion in the back seat of the car can skillfully set the temperature and volume in the back row for himself through the car entertainment control screen in the back row. With the deepening of the southwest direction, the mountain road has also become two-way and one-way, which is a test for the driver's caution and the vehicle's reaction ability. The fog through the tunnel caught us off guard. However, the locals seem to have become accustomed to this, and the speed has not decreased at all. It is because of this fog that the scenery of the fjord is like a fairyland instead of being exposed to the world.

As can be seen from the map, the southwest of Norway consists of a long coastline and many islands. So if we continue to go south, we will see that the best route for sailing is to cross the sea by road. At this time, the ferry has become an auxiliary tool for self-driving travel in Norway. Drive to the ferry so that people can get on the deck and enjoy the scenery. The sea breeze is blowing, the ship is driving at a constant speed, and the surrounding scenery is beautiful and exquisite. Soon, we arrived at the next island and continued to walk along the mountain. Stavanger is an active city. When we arrived, the sun had set, people were walking along the coast, and the music in the corner bar was playing, gradually revealing the carnival when night fell. Our car has also become quiet, and in the pure electric mode, it is more integrated with this city that advocates environmental protection and art.

Self-driving has strung together our journey. With our stay and sightseeing, every point on the navigation will be blurred into a richer picture, showing the unknown Norway. However, we can only do our best because it is difficult to fully understand Norway, which is deeply embedded in nature.

Man and control, exploring sustainability.

Jackie Axe, one of Porsche's most legendary drivers, once recalled his participation in the Dakar Rally, saying that although the whole race was very hard, "you can see 654.38+100,000 stars in the desert at night." Why is driving so attractive? Perhaps it is because people are always romantic when driving. Nowadays, the increasingly stringent global environmental standards have challenged the sustainable development of automobiles, but in order to meet people's natural demand for driving, automobile manufacturers are exploring various solutions.

20 18, Porsche achieved high sales and high profits in the transition period. The product matrix that condenses brand genes, meets market demand and has an increasingly perfect structure has made great achievements. In an increasingly comprehensive product matrix, electric vehicles will hold up half of the country in the future. The "Porsche 2025 Strategy" proposes that half of its vehicle sales will come from new energy vehicles, including pure electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. Building a future sports car will integrate Porsche's genes, values and innovations. Just like the research and development purpose of hybrid electric vehicles, it should be "performance-oriented".

In 20 10, Porsche introduced the Cayenne hybrid car. 20 17 Porsche takes plug-in hybrid technology as the power configuration of its flagship model and uses it on Panamera models. In 20 18, Panamera led the sales growth with a year-on-year growth of 38%. In the European market, more than 60% of Panamera sales are hybrid vehicles. In fact, Porsche's hybrid history can be traced back to 1900, when ferdinand porsche built the world's first hybrid car Lohner-Porsche "Semper Vivus". Porsche currently offers hybrid versions in China, including Cayenne and Panamera.

Although the transformation of the industry challenges management, it can also define new management connotations. Automobile manufacturers need to invest heavily in this aspect in order to gain the right to speak in the future. By 2022, Porsche's investment in electrification will increase from the original planned 3 billion euros to more than 6 billion euros. The extra 3 billion euros will be used to research and develop the derivative models of its pure electric sports car, the electrification research and development of existing models and the construction of charging infrastructure, and hundreds of millions of euros will be used for the reconstruction and expansion of factories and the construction of intelligent travel.

Obermu, chairman of Porsche's global executive board, said that Porsche has fully participated in the transformation of digitalization, interconnection and new mobile concepts. When we are driving on the mountain road in Norway, we can feel this change coming quietly. Under the premise of ensuring power driving, a more economical, environmentally friendly and intelligent way of using cars can make us more comfortable in this nature.

Trivia:

When we returned the car to the owner of Bergen, the owner confidently told us how many times and when to refuel. Before we contacted him, he knew that we had returned to Bergen. These are the functions of the Porsche application. It can also remind the owner whether the vehicle is far away from a safe distance or stolen, and the owner can lock and control the vehicle remotely. This is really a kind of "supervision" that reassures travelers.
