Since the New Year, there is a lot of news about the "bearish" of the new energy vehicle market, on the one hand, the four ministries and commissions jointly issued the "Notice on the Financial Subsidy Policy for the Promotion and Application of New Energy Vehicles in 2022", which clarifies that from January 1, 2022, the subsidy standard for new energy vehicles will decline by 30% on the basis of 2021, and at the same time, the new energy premium will also rise according to the relevant new policies, which can be described as direct "weaning". Compared with the established facts of subsidies and premiums, the price increase of raw materials for power batteries and the supply of chips are still the sword of Damocles hanging over the head of new energy vehicles. Many car companies have said that they will increase prices to pass on the cost to consumers due to cost reasons.
However, at this time, there are still some "conscience" car companies, choosing "subsidies to retreat, sincerity does not retreat", digesting various new policies and cost factors. For example, the pure electric version of Buick's micro blue 6, the new model was listed a few days ago, the starting price dropped by more than 10,000 yuan, the new model was subsidized after the price of 159,900 yuan, while the old model was 177,800 yuan, a drop of nearly 18,000 yuan, showing sincerity.
Volkswagen ID.3, which is also the representative of the joint venture new energy, has officially announced a price increase recently, and the whole system has raised 5400 yuan (159888 + 5400 = 165288 yuan). However, fortunately, Volkswagen has also given a certain buffer period, according to the manufacturer's publicity, the price of the ID family model purchased before February 28 remains the same. Although there is a little bit of a taste of stimulating car purchases around the New Year, in the end, manufacturers will still make up for 5400 yuan out of their own pockets during this time, so that consumers can still enjoy the new energy subsidy price.
So the question is, the Spring Festival of the Year of the Tiger is coming, with a budget of about 150,000, if you want to mention a mainstream joint venture pure tram to resign the old and welcome the new, should you choose micro blue 6 or ID.3? Don't worry, and listen to the analysis below.
First of all, on the good looks, the author feels that the micro blue 6 and ID.3 produced by the two major factories are good, after all, the characteristics of the closed front face of pure electric vehicles allow designers to have more imagination space, and in order to highlight the new energy attributes of pure electric vehicles, they will definitely spend more energy to create a taste that young people like.
But if you talk about personality, you have to count Buick micro blue 6.
It is undeniable that the ID.3 conveys a strong taste of science and technology through some new energy feature elements compared to the same positioning of the fuel version of the Golf, but the overall shape is still the classic hatchback compact car shape. Especially from the side, if it were not for the closed low wind resistance wheel hub, it may still be difficult to distinguish the difference between the high 8.
The unique feature of the micro blue 6 is the use of a similar cross-border body setting, on the one hand, this is the buick family for the first time for the new energy model to adopt the style, the shape of the silhouette like a ground-attached aircraft, very sci-fi, in line with consumers' expectations for the avant-garde design of pure trams.
Secondly, the appearance of micro blue 6 and ID.3 looks more dexterous, but the interior space of micro blue 6 is very impressive, which can be said to be a unique hole. In particular, the longitudinal space of the slight blue 6 is very generous, and the rear row also provides spacious legroom, coupled with a panoramic canopy with transparent light, the riding experience is quite excellent.
Of course, the reason why the micro blue 6 space performance is better, the probability is also in the innate size, the micro blue 6 three-dimensional data is 4673 * 1817 * 1514mm, compared to the ID.3 4261 * 1778 * 1568mm advantages are obvious, coupled with the unique cross-border body design, obviously know how to use the limited space in the car.
In addition, the comfort in the car of the slight blue 6 is slightly better than that of the ID.3. For example, the light blue 6 series is equipped with leather seats, while the ID.3 is leather + fabric, the former is more delicate in both touch and appearance. Another example is the multi-layer soundproof glass in the front row of the micro blue 6 standard, which matches the power characteristics of the pure tram itself, and the tranquility is more outstanding. The most noteworthy thing is that the slight blue 6 has more rear exhaust air outlets than ID.3, taking into account the feelings of all passengers in the car, which is also a relatively large configuration short board of ID.3.
The intimateness of micro blue 6 for users is not only reflected in the conventional configuration, but also in the intelligent experience.
The basic hardware of the two cars to create a sense of technology is actually not much different, both are 10-inch central control screens. But it has to be said that the intelligent car connection system built into the ID.3 screen is not as good as the eConnect intelligent interconnection technology of micro blue 6 in terms of function.
This "can't be compared", on the one hand, is that its speech recognition ability is not good enough, its screen response speed is not fast enough, there are many reports on the Internet about this, various user complaints feedback has been a long time, we no longer whip the corpse today.

Buick Micro Blue 6
On the other hand, the main thing is not intimate enough. For example, ID.3's smart network is like a straight man, kick and move. The new micro-blue 6's eConnect intelligent interconnection technology, using the upgraded iFLYTEK voice, is like a real "smart butler", the voice response is significantly faster, and supports interrupts and multiple rounds of dialogue. AutoNavi map car machine version, can also be real-time online, intelligent interconnection, support mobile phone navigation location, standard OnStar provides full-time online monitoring and remote vehicle control. It also supports OTA upgrades that are not available in ID.3 to achieve common use and constant updates.
I think that in the pure electric compact car consumer market dominated by young users, no one should refuse to achieve a "humanized" intelligent travel experience.
The most critical three electric parts we put at the end of the comparison. Slight blue 6 and ID.3, the power parameters of the two cars have their own highs and lows, and the difference is not large. Under the "magic" of the motor, it can provide a rapid start, medium and low speed response, this agile and fast power can bring a more agile experience than the traditional fuel vehicle.
However, as two mainstream pure electric vehicles, the most important thing is that the battery life should be long enough, and the energy consumption should be low enough to reduce the number of queues and charges outside (especially during the peak period of the Spring Festival) and improve convenience.
As you can see, in the case of ternary lithium batteries, the micro blue 6 can run 518km with a 61.1kWh battery; while the Volkswagen ID.3 only has a 430km endurance with a 57.3kWh battery. In terms of endurance and energy consumption, it is estimated that everyone has seen it. From the data released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, we also found that the comprehensive power consumption of the 100 kilometers of the micro blue 6 is 12.6kWh, while the ID.3 is 13.9kWh.
Low power consumption and high endurance complement each other, helping Micro Blue 6 to achieve a pure electric travel experience with zero anxiety, in fact, it also reflects the reserve of Buick Three Electric Technology more deeply than the accumulation of new energy in recent years.
In fact, since the 1970s, Buick's parent company, General Motors, has sought a variety of new energy technologies to replace traditional petrochemical resources for vehicle drives. In the past 50 years, we have carried out a rich technical route practice on the use of new energy technology vehicles.
Including micro blue 6, in addition to the pure electric version that appears in the comparison of today's article, there is also a plug-and-mix version with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 2.19L under the feeder situation, which is very worth considering for users without private piles.
Having said that, the development ideas of manufacturers will often be presented in the performance of product strength. Just like Buick's more forward-looking and diversified strategic deployment in the field of new energy than Volkswagen, Micro Blue 6 also shows a more avant-garde shape than ID.3, a humanized intelligent experience, and solid space, endurance and other comprehensive performance. At the same time, Buick has smoothed out the difference in subsidy rebates for micro blue 6 out of his own pocket, showing higher sincerity than the limited-time "preferential" Volkswagen ID.3, which is undoubtedly the preferred choice for considering the mainstream pure tram of the joint venture in the new year.
