Under the high oil price, new energy vehicles are becoming more and more popular, and the cost of use is less than half that of fuel vehicles

"I now have two oil trucks, both of which are big Shanghai brands. Now I want to replace a fuel truck with an electric car, so that the cost of commuting will be reduced a lot. "Prospective car owner" Zhang Shang told the first financial reporter.

In previous years, when the reporter visited the car dealership, he learned that the main reason why the vast majority of users who buy cars or wait to buy cars choose new energy vehicles is that in the case of a difficult shanghai brand, new energy vehicles can directly solve the license problem. However, in recent visits, Zhang Shang is not choosing new energy vehicles because of the license more and more users.

Since 2021, domestic oil prices have risen frequently, december 17, the latest round of domestic oil price adjustment, although oil prices have been slightly reduced, but still at a high level in the past three years, in Shanghai for example, the price of No. 92 gasoline is 7.10 yuan / L, in the same period last year, the price of No. 92 gasoline was 5.72 yuan / L. The rise in oil prices has increased the cost of cars for users, which has made new energy vehicles with lower costs of use more users considered.

Cui Dongshu, secretary general of the Association, told reporters that the current high domestic oil prices are one of the reasons for driving some users to choose new energy vehicles.

Zhang Shang calculated to the reporter a "economic account" that uses two models: a joint venture medium-sized sedan he is currently using, in the case of high-speed and less driving in urban areas, the average fuel consumption is about 9L/100km, and the fuel cost he needs for a year is about 7,000 yuan.

"Weilai sends 6 times a month to change the battery, the standard battery pack lasts 550km, even if the endurance is not accurate, there are 330km with a 40% discount, and the free electricity can be opened for nearly 2000km a month, basically there is no need for 'oil money', at least several thousand a year, which is not counting the maintenance of electric vehicles without oil, machine filters and other consumables." Zhang Shang said.

In actual use, new energy vehicles have obvious cost advantages compared with fuel vehicles. Taking the Xiaopeng P7, which is currently the main seller of Xiaopeng Automobile, as an example, the average measured power consumption of the user of its long-endurance version model is 13.8kWh/100km, and the charging cost of 20,000 kilometers per year is about 5520 yuan to calculate the charging cost of 20,000 kilometers per year, and the total cost of maintenance and charging for 3 years is 19715 yuan.

Volkswagen Magotan, a best-selling 2.0T model user with a similar price, has a measured average fuel consumption of 8.7L/100km, and the annual fuel cost of driving 20,000 kilometers is about 13,050 yuan at the price of 7.5 yuan /L of No. 95 gasoline; while the conventional maintenance cost of 60,000 kilometers is 6419 yuan, and the total cost of maintenance and refueling for the owner for three years is 45569 yuan.

The cost of use of Xiaopeng P7 in three years is only 43.26% of that of Magotan, and it is worth noting that if you have a home charging pile and use Valley Electricity (taking Shanghai as an example, the second stage of valley electricity price is 0.31 yuan / kWh), the charging cost of pure electric vehicles can be reduced several times.

For some car owners, the lower cost of new energy vehicles has become an important reason for them to choose new energy vehicles. In a Euler 4S store in Shanghai, Gong Zhe, who has just taken away the euler good cat, told reporters that he commutes to work one-way at about 7 kilometers a day, but the traffic jam is serious during peak hours, and the fuel consumption of a Japanese compact car currently used to save fuel is still not low, Gong Zhe said that the choice of new energy vehicles in the urban commuting is more cost-effective, and the work unit has installed charging piles, charging is also very convenient.

Dong Jun, product strategy manager of a domestic joint venture car company, told reporters: "If the urban commuting is the mainstay, the demand for long-distance driving is not high, and new energy vehicles are indeed a very good choice." At present, the relevant preferential policies are only part of the factors that induce users to buy, and the advantages of new energy vehicles in terms of intelligent cockpit and automatic driving compared with the differentiation of traditional fuel vehicles also have great attraction for some consumers. ”

Chen Qingtai, chairman of the China Electric Vehicle 100 Association, said at the media communication meeting of the Electric Vehicle 100 Forum that new energy vehicles have experienced three stages of development, from policy-driven to policy-driven to policy-driven to market-driven, and now, the third stage has been opened.

According to the data of the Association, shanghai's new energy vehicle sales reached 26,000 units in November, and the market penetration rate reached 28%. In non-restricted cities with relatively few policy preferences, the sales scale of new energy vehicles is also gradually expanding. Taking the Current Performance of Wuling Hongguang MINI EV, which is currently performing well in the new energy vehicle market, as an example, the statistics of the Gaz Automobile Research Institute show that from January to October 2021, the cumulative sales of Wuling Hongguang MINI EV exceeded 300,000 vehicles, and in the TOP20 terminal sales of the models in various cities, the non-restricted Taizhou City, Zhumadian City, and Shangqiu City ranked in the top three, and the proportion of non-restricted cities in the top 20 reached 90%.

BYD dealers in Shandong and northern Jiangsu also told reporters that in the past, their sales were mainly fuel vehicles, and the sales of new energy vehicles have continued to rise this year, and the sales volume of new energy vehicles has accounted for more than 80%. A Owner of Qin PLUS DM-i in Shandong told reporters: "We have no limit to the license plate, no limit to the line, buy this car is to see the low fuel consumption, high configuration." A tank of oil can drive 1,000 kilometers, the price is similar to That of Bora and Langyi, and the configuration is higher. ”
