Affected by the epidemic and chip shortage, the global automotive industry has been greatly impacted, and the purchase of new cars and other cars in many countries and regions has become the norm, so that the price increase has become a new "means of getting rich" for some car dealers.
In the US market, because of the serious reduction in new car production capacity, the phenomenon of price increases is particularly common, and for luxury cars, the price increase is more difficult to accept.
A few days ago, some netizens broke the news that they wanted to buy a new Car for Mercedes-Benz EQS, but they were increased by the dealer, who said that they wanted to increase the price by about 50,000 US dollars (about 320,000 yuan), but the new car price of the car was only 10.23-12.53 US dollars, which meant that the price increase was close to half of the price.
Even if it is not a luxury car, the highest-selling Ford pickup truck in the United States, F-150, its electric version of the model will also increase the price by about 30,000 yuan, and the price increase is also close to half of the price of the car.
Such a price increase, compared with the Chinese market, the price increase of Us dealers has far exceeded that of Chinese dealers.
In addition, due to the impact of the epidemic, chip shortage and insufficient production capacity of new cars, the price of used cars in the United States has also risen.
Statistics show that since the beginning of the year, the price of used cars in the US market has risen by nearly 50% and by more than 20% in the past four months. Industry analysts pointed out that this increase not only surpassed the rise of the S&P 500 index in the same period, but also surpassed Bitcoin, and even accelerated in the near future.
