For the introduction of exclusive insurance for new energy vehicles, many related models have been more or less affected in the cost of car maintenance. Among them, the most affected is the pure electric model priced at more than 200,000 yuan, the most representative of which is Tesla, which made the city stormy because of the insurance rise of thousands of yuan some time ago. Today we will take a look at another pure electric vehicle priced at more than 300,000 yuan, how the cost of maintaining a car has changed after the introduction of this new insurance. This car is the Lantu FREE pure electric version, we have previously calculated the current car maintenance cost of its extended range version model, today let's see what is the situation of the pure electric version?
In the three configurations of the Landu FREE Pure Electric Edition, we have selected the 2021 two-wheel drive pure electric city version as a reference model, to see what is the situation of the Landu FREE pure electric version in terms of insurance costs, maintenance costs and electricity costs?
Insurance Costs:
According to the sales staff of the Lantu brand, when buying insurance for new energy vehicles now, the insurance software will set the insurance price according to the car buyer's previous insurance records. That is to say, if for consumers who usually call insurance more frequently, the insurance cost when buying a new car is also higher than that of others.
We calculated through a car insurance calculator that the Lantu FREE pure electric version of the purchase of 2 million three liabilities, car damage insurance and traffic insurance cost more than 10,000 yuan, but in the real insurance policy provided by the Lantu sales staff, the actual transaction price is almost around 5500 yuan, the two have a big difference, through the inquiry we came to guess that the car insurance price calculated by the platform big data, and the account owner of the account, just called a few times insurance some time ago.
In a medium-priced policy I got, the owner purchased 2 million three liabilities, car damage insurance and compulsory traffic insurance, and the premium for the new car this year was 5530 yuan. The sales staff told me that if it is placed before the implementation of the new energy vehicle exclusive insurance, this cost can be reduced by about 100 yuan, but the new energy vehicle exclusive insurance covers the three electric warranty and spontaneous combustion and other related risks in the car damage insurance.
According to the real sample data, we concluded that after the implementation of the exclusive insurance for new energy vehicles, the insurance cost of a land map FREE pure electric version is about 5530 yuan a year. According to the insurance of three years without accidents, after calculating the discount of the insurance company year by year, the total insurance cost required for this car for three years is 13845 yuan, and the average insurance expenditure for one year is 4615 yuan, which is 83 yuan more expensive than the original.
Maintenance cost:
As a pure electric model, Lantu FREE pure electric version is still relatively simple in maintenance, according to the sales staff to give, the maintenance cost of this car for three years does not exceed 1500 yuan. Whether this is the case, we have made a detailed split calculation of the maintenance details of the vehicle.
Landu FREE Pure Electric Edition First Insurance is carried out at 5000 kilometers, mainly to do a series of inspections of vehicles, this piece is free. In the maintenance of this car, the main thing that needs to be spent is the replacement of some consumable parts. For example, the vehicle needs to replace the air conditioning filter once every 20,000 kilometers, the cost is 300 yuan, every 40,000 kilometers need to replace the brake oil, the cost is also 300 yuan, and when the vehicle travels 80,000 kilometers, it needs to replace the antifreeze, the cost is 980 yuan.
If we assume that the new car travels 20,000 kilometers a year, in the case of 60,000 kilometers in three years, the total maintenance cost required for the three-year pure electric version of Landu FREE is 1200 yuan, and the average annual expenditure on maintenance is only 400 yuan, which is indeed relatively economical.
Electricity:
The official range of the two-wheel drive pure electric city version of Lantu FREE is 505 kilometers, and in our actual tests, the mileage of this car is almost 450 kilometers. According to the battery capacity of the Pure Electric Version of Landu FREE, the power consumption of this car should be around 20kWh/100km.
If we drive 20,000 kilometers a year, 10,000 kilometers use household electricity to charge vehicles, and the remaining 10,000 kilometers use public charging piles to charge vehicles. At present, the price of household electricity is about 0.56 yuan / kWh, while the average price of public charging piles is about 1.7 yuan / kWh, and the annual electricity cost of the FREE pure electricity version of the Lantu is 4520 yuan in this case, and the average monthly electricity cost is 376 yuan.
However, according to the staff of Lantu, there is a lifelong free charging policy for the purchase of pure electric city version models before the New Year. That is to say, for this part of the car owners, in addition to the emergency, there is basically no need to spend any money on electricity. But after the year of charging this piece is what policy, we still need to wait for the manufacturer's news.
summary:
By adding up the insurance cost, maintenance cost and electricity cost, we came up with a Lantu FREE pure electric version of the model without calculating various soft expenses, the annual car maintenance expenditure is almost 9535 yuan, and the average monthly needs to spend 795 yuan on the car, of which the insurance cost is about 7 yuan more expensive than the original. However, there are a few points to note, one is that the insurance cost will fluctuate up and down according to the previous accident records, and the electricity bill, if you buy the pure electricity city version a few years ago to enjoy the lifelong free charging policy provided by the manufacturer, you can save more than three hundred yuan a month, but as for what policy is the next year, you need to wait until the manufacturer announces the news.
