The rapid development of the domestic new energy vehicle market has made many new car-making forces easily catch this "hitchhiking" and seize a lot of high-end markets. In order to cope with such a situation, traditional car companies have also launched their own pure electric car brands, and have successively carried out independent operations, and Feifan Automobile under SAIC Motor is one of them.
As the current sales of Feifan Automobile, the order of Feifan ER6 reached nearly 3,000 units in October last year, and the delivery volume exceeded 2,000 units for two consecutive months, with a rapid growth momentum. The reason why consumers recognize this car is that it has a cruising range of more than 600km and a reasonable price, and the price is very good. In addition, the lower cost of the car is also one of the reasons why most home users choose this car. However, the recent news about the decline of subsidies for new energy vehicles and the adjustment of insurance costs has caused many users to worry, at the same time, Feifan Automobile also announced that the entire Model of Feifan ER6 was raised by 1,000 yuan. So does this have an impact on the cost of the Feifan ER6 car? Next, we will investigate the maintenance costs, insurance costs and electricity costs of the Feifan ER6.
Insurance costs
According to the understanding, Feifan ER6 commercial insurance has hardly changed compared with last year, but due to the increase in the guidance price of the new car by 1,000 yuan, the first year premium has still increased by a certain margin. After our investigation of the "2021 New Dynamic Version 620km Zhixing Edition" of the Feifan ER6 hot-selling model priced at 163,800 yuan, the car in the purchase of 1 million three major insurance types, car damage insurance, traffic insurance, the first year of insurance is about 5800 yuan, if there is no accident in the later process of using the car, the premium will be reduced, we calculate with a standard premium of 20% in the second year, 70% off in the third year, the total cost of feifan ER6 three-year insurance is about 14500 yuan, The average is about 4833 yuan per year, up about 100 yuan from before. Of course, if you count the differences between different insurance companies, different regions, and different insurance projects, this cost change is believed to be negligible.
Maintenance cost survey
According to the maintenance manual, the first insurance time of the Feifan ER6 is 3000km or 3 months (whichever comes first), and it is necessary to check the three-electric system and chassis. After that, the maintenance interval is 10,000km or 6 months, and in addition to the need for routine inspections, it is necessary to replace the air filter, brake oil and so on regularly. The replacement cycle of the air conditioning filter element is 10,000km or 3 months, and the battery replacement cycle is 20,000km or 12 months. Electric drive transmission oil is replaced every 80,000km, brake fluid is replaced every 2 years, coolant is replaced every 3 years or 80,000km, and the price of accessories ranges from 100-300 yuan.
It is worth mentioning that at present, Feifan ER6 provides lifelong free basic maintenance services for the first owner, inspection fees, replacement of air conditioning filters and other aspects of the cost are free, in the three-year driving 60,000km car cycle, the owner only needs to replace some oil, about 800 yuan or so, an average of 267 yuan per year, there is no doubt that this price and the same level of other pure electric models compared to at least three years can save at least two thousand yuan, very provincial.
Electricity Bill Survey
The NEDC range of the Feifan ER6 has reached 620km, which is a very good level in its class. According to our survey, its actual 100 km electricity consumption is about 15.3 kWh, we calculate the Feifan ER6 electricity cost based on the current household electricity consumption of about 0.56 yuan / kWh, driving 10,000 km is 867 yuan, and driving 60,000 km of electricity is 5141 yuan. This level of electricity is not high in the same level of products, which is a normal level, but thanks to the cheap electricity price, it can still save users a lot of money.
epilogue:
We will adjust the insurance cost, maintenance cost and electricity costs together, we can calculate the Cost of flying ER6 for 60,000km for three years is about 20,441 yuan, an average of about 6,814 yuan per year, and an average of about 568 yuan per month. It can be seen that the cost of this car is at a very provincial level in the same level, even if the insurance of Feifan ER6 has increased to a certain extent compared with before, but it has almost no impact on the use of the car. More importantly, the lifelong free maintenance service given by Feifan ER6 can save a lot of money for the owner every year in the later process of using the car, and this cost can completely offset the money that the Feifan ER6 guidance price has risen, so for the owners or prospective owners of Feifan ER6, there is no need to worry.
