In terms of product strength, this car uses a three-cylinder engine, the comprehensive power has 258 horsepower, the endurance can reach 84km, and the rich configuration and trendy design are more in line with the preferences of young people, on the whole, its market competitiveness is good. So how does the Lynk & Co 06 PHEV perform in terms of car maintenance costs? Can young graduates afford this car? We will then investigate the cost of insurance, maintenance, electricity and gas.
Insurance costs
Among the two optional configurations of the Lynk & Co 06 PHEV, the "2022 PHEV 84KM Endurance Pro" is the most concerned model, and the price of this car is 163,800 yuan. For its insurance costs, according to the results of our previous investigation, the insurance cost required for the first year after the purchase of the car is about 5,000 yuan, assuming that there is no insurance within three years, the average annual premium of the discount should be about 4200 yuan, which is still a good deal in the same class of models. However, as we all know, last year released the new energy vehicle exclusive insurance, the three electric quality insurance, spontaneous combustion and other items into the insurance scope, under this insurance, the premium of Lynk & Co 06 PHEV has been slightly increased, the increase is mainly reflected in the car damage insurance, the current price is almost 2241 yuan, so that the overall insurance cost after the first year of car purchase reached 5142 yuan, which is about 142 yuan more expensive than before.
As for the increase in the average annual premium, we have no accidents in accordance with the follow-up car, calculated by the standard premium of 20% in the second year and 7% off in the third year, then the total premium required for the current Lynk & Co 06 PHEV for three years is about 12855 yuan, which is about 4285 yuan per year, which is about 85 yuan more than before, and on average, it only needs to spend about 7 yuan more per month, and the original difference is not large.

We take the family car three years to drive 60000km as a large car cycle, then these three years almost 6 times to carry out maintenance, a total of about 6515 yuan, the average annual maintenance cost is about 2172 yuan, in the same class of cars is the price of the most expensive. This is mainly because its small maintenance is close to 1,000 yuan, which increases the overall maintenance cost.

Assuming that a family car has a mileage of 20,000 km a year, then 10,000 km of it is driven as pure electricity and the other 10,000 km is driven as pure oil. Then in terms of fuel costs, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the 1.5T engine 100 km mounted by Lynk & Co 06 PHEV is about 5.5L, only need to add No. 92 gasoline, the current price per liter is about 7.6 yuan, you can calculate that the annual fuel cost of Lynk & Co 06 PHEV is almost 4180 yuan; in terms of electricity costs, Lynk & Co 06 PHEV Actually has a comprehensive power consumption of 100 kilometers is about 18.5kWh, in the case of having its own charging pile, according to the home electricity consumption of about 0.56 yuan / kWh to calculate, It can be concluded that the electricity bill for one year is almost 1036 yuan.
