For many consumers who buy a car for the first time, many people may be unfamiliar with driving skills and intend to choose smaller models to facilitate daily driving. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the feelings of family members using the car, and the space in the car can meet the daily travel needs. Then, the compact model is more in line with this consumer group.
Recently, the "2021 China Automobile Retention Rate Report" was officially released, which listed models with high retention rates. The top model of the Honda Civic has a three-year retention rate of nearly 80%, followed by the imported BMW 2 Series and the third is the Lexus CT. Next, let's take a look at whether these three cars are equally outstanding in addition to the high retention rate.
Model: Honda Civic
Price: 119,900-169,900 yuan
Since the tenth generation of Civic, "seconds and seconds" have emerged in an endless stream, which is mainly due to the overall strength of the car. Coming to the eleventh generation of models, the overall design has "matured" a lot, and there is more of a sense of stability after sports. The interior uses a 10.2-inch full LCD meter, which is slightly technological. It is worth noting that there may also be a SI version of the model in the future, and if you want a more aggressive Civic, you can wait a little.
In terms of power, the eleventh generation Civic is equipped with a 1.5T engine, which is matched by a CVT gearbox. The engine is optionally high/low power, with a maximum horsepower of 129 Ps and a peak torque of 180 N·m for low-power models and 182 Ps maximum horsepower and a peak torque of 240 N·m for high-power models. No matter which set of powertrain, its comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is less than 6L, and the fuel economy is more prominent.
Model: BMW 2 Series
Price: 269,800-339,800 yuan
The 2 Series is the most entry-level model in the BMW family, with optional front-mounted rear-drive options. In fact, entry does not represent low-end, for those who pursue control, entry means that the body is compact and can bring a more powerful handling experience. In addition, the appearance of the car is also available in three versions of double door/ four door / convertible, which meets the diversity of consumers.
The BMW 2 Series, whether it is a front-drive or a rear-drive, is equipped with a 2.0T engine. Among them, the front-drive version of the engine maximum horsepower of 192Ps, 280N·m, matching the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, 100 km/h acceleration of 7.2s; the rear-drive version of the model maximum horsepower of 184Ps, peak torque of 300 N·m, matching the 8-speed manual transmission, 100 km/h acceleration of 7.5/7.7s.
Model: Lexus CT
Price: 215,000-282,000 yuan
When it comes to retention rates, how can there be a lack of Lexus models. As one of the most entry-level models in the family, ct has a compact body shape and the designer's skillful hand, making the car as a whole more exquisite. It's worth noting that the Lexus CT is a rare hatchback in the brand, and if you both like Lexus quality and want a hatchback compact model, the car is a great fit.
In the power part, the Lexus CT series is equipped with a combination of 1.8L + hybrid, matched with the E-CVT gearbox, and the system has a comprehensive power of 100kW. From the perspective of power data, it is not as strong as the previous two models, but the fuel economy of the car is also beyond the reach of the previous two models, and its comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is 4.6L, which can make you more "provincial" during daily commuting.
In fact, the retention rate is high and low, and the model is a very important part. But it also depends on the condition of the car, if the vehicle has a major accident, it will also affect the retention rate of the vehicle to a certain extent. Therefore, when you buy a new car, one of the indicators of the retention rate is one of the indicators, there is no need to pay too much attention.
