Expensive, must it mean good?
In terms of just how much fuel to add, I never think that an engine with No. 95 oil is better than an engine that can add No. 92 gasoline, and naturally, I don't think that an engine that can only add No. 98 gasoline is too good to be knocked down.
What do we have to know about the properties of the engine? The attribute of the engine is a tool, which carries the task of "driving a man", equivalent to the horse driving the carriage, which is not a luxury, but a consumer product.
The attributes of consumer goods should be pragmatic, durable, stable and reliable.
The engine that can add No. 92 gasoline must have a stronger compatibility, it can add No. 95 and can use No. 98 gasoline, to any gas station with gasoline, this series of engines will have a calm performance, for users, it is nothing more than adding a box of 95 gasoline, to dozens of dollars more.
However, engines that can only add No. 95 oil are not compatible with the downwards for a long time.
Because of the characteristics of the engine, the No. 95 engine plus the No. 92 fuel will have carbon deposition problems for a long time, and there will be problems such as jitter and knocking after a long time.
All in all, it is still a matter of engine compatibility. Can add No. 92 engine compatibility is strong, after all, the engine of this product, there is no luxury attribute in it, plus No. 95 fuel does not have any sense of nobility, but increases instability and daily use costs.
For the vast majority of people, it is definitely not a good thing that the engine can only be added to No. 95 gasoline to meet the daily use.
For example, Lynk & Co, a new car positioned at 150,000 can only be equipped with No. 95 gasoline, for consumers of this magnitude, the increase in consumption pressure is inevitable.
On the one hand, daily refueling costs are higher, and on the other hand, higher grade gasoline does not bring a better experience to daily life.
Generally speaking, No. 95 gasoline is 0.5-0.8 yuan more expensive than No. 92 gasoline, and the driving mileage of 20,000 kilometers per year is analyzed, and ordinary family cars need to consume 1600L gasoline, so the cost increases by 1,000 yuan per year.
In fact, this engine can only add 95, the acceleration is not faster, the fuel consumption is not lower, and the handling experience is the same compared with the same level of models.
A good car in the true sense of the word never needs to be a more expensive way of maintenance.
Good driving, easy to use, low cost, not bad is the evaluation standard of good cars, for more people, good cars are not linked to expensive, stability and reassurance is the only standard for good cars within any price.
After all, for more people, the attributes of passenger cars are still transportation, and in China's passenger car market, where sales of 100,000 products account for nearly 40%, economy and stability are the core advantages.
No. 95 fuel, on the other hand, is essentially to serve models with more complex engines and higher standards, which tend to have higher prices and require higher costs to maintain.
But I never think that the car with high positioning and the need to add No. 95 gasoline is a good car, from a certain point of view, these good standards are just packaging, marketing out of the words, just like BBA, can only add No. 95 gasoline, does not mean that the quality of BBA must be good, but also does not mean that they are more high-end.
The reason why No. 95 gasoline is needed is because these engines have given up reliability and economic advantages in a sense, choosing to squeeze out negligible performance with more cost, but in exchange for more inconvenience and instability.
