Before the launch of the Range Rover Star Vein, the Range Rover Evoque has always been the "most beautiful Land Rover" in the hearts of many people, and as the entry car series of the Range Rover series, the Range Rover Evoque also occupies a pivotal position in its own sales. However, as a land rover brand medium-sized SUV, the Land Rover Evoque has a good discount all year round, but many consumers have feedback that although its terminal price is really good, the cost of car maintenance in the later period is still not cheap. And we know that later Land Rover launched the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque New Energy based on the basis of the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, but its price is about 50,000 yuan more expensive than the fuel version of the model, today we will take a look, as a plug-in hybrid model, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque New Energy for consumers, is it really "more economical" than the fuel version of the Range Rover Evoque?
Land Rover Range Rover Evoque New Energy is currently on sale for the 2021 Aurora L P300e Deluxe Edition, today we will take a look at the energy consumption costs, maintenance costs and insurance costs of this car.
Energy consumption cost:
Due to the better aerodynamic performance than the discovery of the sports version of new energy, although the same set of power system is used, but the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque New Energy is slightly better in pure electric mileage, its official pure electric mileage is 56 kilometers, and we actually tested that its pure electric mileage is almost 45 kilometers. When calculating the cost of energy consumption, we still assume that the annual driving range is 20,000 kilometers, of which 15,000 kilometers are used as fuel-consuming hybrid drives, and the remaining 5,000 kilometers are driven in pure electric mode.
First of all, let's calculate the energy consumption of 15,000 kilometers that need to consume gasoline, according to the official introduction, the comprehensive fuel consumption of this car's NEDC is 1.9L/100km, and we actually tested that the fuel consumption of this car is almost 5.5L/100km. This car needs to add No. 95 gasoline, and the current price is 7.6 yuan / L. Therefore, the fuel cost required to travel 15,000 kilometers is 6270 yuan.
Let's calculate the electricity cost of 5,000 kilometers of pure electricity, the actual pure electric life of this car is 45 kilometers, according to the data we asked at the Land Rover 4S store, the battery capacity of this car is 15.5kWh. We calculate according to the electricity price of 0.56 yuan / kWh, the electricity cost required for this car to travel 5000 kilometers is 964 yuan.
By adding up the fuel and electricity bills, we conclude that in our hypothetical scenario, the energy consumption cost of the car for 20,000 kilometers a year is 7234 yuan, and the average monthly cost is 602 yuan.
Maintenance cost:
The maintenance cycle of Range Rover Evoque New Energy is also 10,000 km maintenance once, divided into A maintenance and B maintenance two kinds of alternating, A maintenance is to replace the oil, machine filter plus three electrical inspection, the cost is 1323 yuan. B maintenance on the basis of A maintenance, plus the replacement of air conditioning filter and air filter, B maintenance costs 2326 yuan. The brake oil is replaced every 40,000 kilometers at a cost of 377 yuan. The spark plug and transmission oil are replaced every 60,000 kilometers, and it costs 4492 yuan to replace them once.
Therefore, if we calculate according to the three-year driving of 60,000 kilometers, the total maintenance cost of this car for three years is 15816 yuan, and the average annual cost of 5272 yuan is spent to do maintenance, which is basically the same as the maintenance cost of Land Rover Discovery Sport New Energy. It is also worth mentioning that due to the need to check the three electric, its maintenance cost is slightly more expensive than the fuel version of the Range Rover Evoque.
Insurance Costs:
As a new energy model, Land Rover Evoque Sport Does not need to pay vehicle and vessel use tax, and the insurance is calculated according to the purchase of car damage insurance, traffic insurance and one million three liabilities. We assume that there has been no accident for three years called insurance, after calculating the insurance company's declining discount year by year, the total insurance cost required for this car for three years is 30177 yuan, and the average insurance expense required for one year is 10059 yuan.
summary:
By adding up the energy consumption costs, maintenance costs and insurance costs, we conclude that without considering other soft expenses, a Land Rover Range Rover Evoque New Energy annual car maintenance cost is 22465 yuan, the average monthly car maintenance cost is 1880 yuan, although as a medium-sized SUV, such a car maintenance cost is relatively excellent performance, compared to the use of the same power combination of Land Rover Discovery Sport new energy to save 100 yuan per month, But for consumers who want to achieve the purpose of saving money is still not a suitable car, as for the reason is that although the car can be hundreds of dollars cheaper every month, but the difference between the car and the fuel version of the Range Rover Evoque in the terminal market is close to 50,000 yuan, it is still difficult to fill it with the money saved. As for why Land Rover launched such new energy models, it is mainly convenient for car buyers to put green cards in some restricted places. And what we understand also verifies this, in a city in central China that does not have a limited license policy, this car is basically not on sale, but in Guangzhou, which has a limited license policy, its sales are not bad.
