Everyone says that Mercedes-Benz has a high premium, but it has to be said that Mercedes-Benz's brand influence is also the highest among the three BBA. The phrase "Welcome to become a distinguished Mercedes-Benz owner" also evoked the small nine-nine in the hearts of many people. Is the cost of becoming a Mercedes owner really high? Today Xiaobian will take the entry-level Mercedes-Benz 2022 A 180 L sports sedan (234,800 yuan) as an example, to give you an inventory of a wave, to see how much it costs to raise an entry-level Mercedes-Benz A-Class sedan?
1. Fuel costs
The comprehensive fuel consumption of this model is 6L for 100 kilometers, but this is only an ideal state, even if you run high speed every day, you may not be able to run to this fuel consumption level. Most of the car owners' measured fuel consumption is about 7.5-8, xiaobian here to 7.5L as the standard calculation. This car is added to the 95 gasoline, the current small editor of the location of the oil price of 7.52 yuan / L, if according to the daily driving distance of 40km to calculate, that year is 14600km. However, in a year, there are more or less cases of going out or driving back to their hometowns, so Xiaobian here is calculated based on driving 20,000km a year. The oil cost for that year was about 11280 yuan, and the average monthly oil expenditure was 940 yuan.
Second, maintenance costs
First of all, mercedes-benz GRC does not provide free first insurance, and if you look at the price of maintenance accessories in 4S stores, it is really not cheap at all. The maintenance interval of the vehicle is 10,000km, and the oil and oil filter are replaced every 10,000km; the air conditioning filter, air filter, brake oil and spark plug are replaced every 20,000km; and the transmission oil is replaced every 60,000km. The cost of small maintenance (10000km) is about 1014 yuan, and the cost of large maintenance (40000km) is about 2940 yuan. If you drive 20,000 kilometers per year, the cost of three years is up to 60,000 kilometers, a total of 14,742 yuan, an average of 4,914 yuan per year, and an average of 409.5 yuan a month. Of course, this price is calculated according to the official maintenance items set by the 4S store, and consumers can also selectively maintain according to the actual practical situation of their own vehicles, plus if there is a purchase of maintenance packages, the cost will be further reduced.
3. Insurance costs
The price of the current Mercedes-Benz A-class sedan is 214,800-254,400 yuan, according to the price of this entry-level model, Xiaobian's personal suggestion is to buy a full insurance. Insurance costs vary according to regions and car prices, taking Xiamen as an example, Xiaobian recommends purchase: a third party one million (1 million yuan) + car damage insurance + no deductible special insurance + theft insurance, plus compulsory traffic insurance, a year's insurance cost is about 7331 yuan (the first year), the average month is 611 yuan.
4. Miscellaneous expenses
In addition to the basic cost, there must be high-speed fees, parking fees, car wash fees and so on throughout the year. A year's high-speed cost is calculated according to 500 yuan, an average of 42 yuan a month; wash the car twice a month, the car wash fee is 30 yuan once, and the month is 60 yuan; if you don't buy a parking space, if you rent it every month, the average monthly rent of the xiaobian location is about 200 yuan, then the average monthly cost of all miscellaneous items is: 42 + 60 + 200 = 302 yuan.
If the car does not have scratches and violations, all the above expenses add up to: fuel costs 940 yuan + maintenance costs 409.5 yuan + insurance costs 611 yuan + miscellaneous expenses 302 yuan = 2262.5 yuan.
Although most of the friends mainly take loans to buy cars, it is not excluded that there are friends who buy a car in full, so Xiaobian will separately say the cost of the following two situations:
1. If it is a full purchase of a car, plus purchase tax, license fee, decoration fee and other expenses, the landing is about 272,300 yuan, that is to say, spending this money can drive the car away, and the follow-up only needs to bear the monthly car maintenance cost of 2262.5 yuan on OK, do not look at the car price, the average monthly car cost of 2262.5 yuan is OK.
2. If it is a loan to buy a car, the down payment is calculated by 30%, the loan is calculated by three years loan, the annual interest rate is 5.99%, plus the loan handling fee is about 3000 yuan, in addition to the down payment, the repayment amount of each month is about 6654 yuan, that plus the average monthly car maintenance cost, the monthly vehicle expenditure will be 8916.5 yuan, which is already a big challenge for most of the working class.
If you buy a car in full, it seems that a monthly salary of 6,000 is enough (after all, life also costs, spending half of the living expenses to maintain a car is still not recommended Ha), but if it is a loan to buy, the monthly salary is basically 15,000 to be able to afford, so it seems that becoming a Mercedes-Benz owner seems to be a bit difficult for working-class friends.
