If you want to choose the most affordable new car in today's auto market, you should not forget the Hongguang MINIEV. Indeed, the price of Hongguang MINIEV is very cheap, the guidance price starts at 28,800, even if it is placed in the second-hand car market, a model with a good car condition, no 20,000-30,000 may not be able to get down. In fact, when the Hongguang MINIEV was listed, many people questioned the car: Hongguang MINIEV is priced so low, can it really make money?
It is worth mentioning that not only Chinese consumers and automotive media are interested in Hongguang MINIEV, but also foreign media and experts are also interested in this electric vehicle with sufficiently affordable pricing. For example, Professor Masayoshi Yamamoto of Nagoya University in Japan dismantled a Hiroko MINIEV in front of the public, and there was also a reporter from nihon Keizai Shimbun. After this dismantling, Professor Yamamoto estimated the cost of Hongguang MINIEV and found that it would cost 480,000 yen (about 27,000 yuan) to calculate the parts and assembly costs, and then calculate the cost of transportation and distribution, in fact, the profit of Hongguang MINIEV would be lower. That is to say, the profitability of Hongguang MINIEV itself is indeed not high.
And according to Professor Yamamoto's disassembly analysis, many of the spare parts on The Hongguang MINIEV are of domestic origin, such as the core battery pack and the motor, which are provided by the domestic enterprises Ningde Times and Ningbo Shuanglin respectively. That is to say, if Japan wants to build a Hongguang MINIEV, then many spare parts have to be imported from our country, which will increase the final cost, and there is no way to build an electric vehicle as close to the people as the Hongguang MINIEV. In fact, it is also true that the Toyota C+ Pod, which is positioned close to the Hongguang MINIEV, is priced at 1.65 million yen (about 92,000 yuan) in Japan.
The attractiveness of Hongguang MINIEV to the Chinese people is not only its relatively low entry threshold, but also its low cost of using the car and the safety performance in line with national standards.
In terms of car cost, Hongguang MINIEV as an electric vehicle, originally has an advantage over fuel vehicles, purely from the price, Hongguang MINIEV can do 5 cents per kilometer. Most people travel about 30 kilometers a day, a small number of people may run to 40 kilometers, 50 kilometers, according to 50 kilometers, Hongguang MINIEV single-day electricity bill is less than 3 yuan. As for the insurance premium, the Hongguang MINIEV model, which is not highly priced, is difficult to exceed 2,000 yuan in a year premium. In this way, the average cost of car used by Hongguang MINIEV per day does not exceed 8 pieces.
As for safety, before the Hongguang MINIEV was not listed, there were many low-speed electric scooters on the street, which not only could not be licensed, but also the safety performance usually could not meet the standards, and there was no way to protect the safety of passengers in the car. Hongguang MINIEV is different, although it is low-priced, it is indeed an electric vehicle that can be legally licensed and meets the standard, and the body structure and materials are in line with the standard, which can play a role in ensuring the safety of passengers. Third-party media have also done the collision test of Hongguang MINIEV and electric low-speed electric scooter, and the test results do not need to be said more, and Hongguang MINIEV is better in safety.
Of course, the product strength of Hongguang MINIEV is actually good, such as its small size, when traveling in the city, you can more flexibly shuttle through the streets and alleys in the city, and parking is more convenient. For example, macro light MINIEV charging is convenient, it only needs the most ordinary 220V AC to charge energy, so in life, we can often see the macro light MINIEV charged with a household plug board. For another example, Hongguang MINIEV is suitable for Chaochuang, car owners can customize Hongguang MINIEV according to their own preferences and ideas, Hongguang MINIEV current Tidal Innovation rate exceeded 72%, is the highest domestic Tidal Innovation rate of new energy vehicles. In short, the Hongguang MINIEV is qualified as a scooter, what do you think?
