It is said that Mercedes-Benz E is an ideal, S is a dream, AMG is delusional, if you are more interested in performance cars, you may have more or less ideas about Mercedes-Benz's AMG models. But in fact, AMG also has relatively "people-friendly" models, such as Mercedes-Benz CLA AMG, which is less than 60 naked car price, is it much more people-friendly than S? Today Xiaobian will take the 2022 AMG CLA 45 4MATIC+ (549,300 yuan) as an example, to see how much it costs to raise a more entry-level AMG model?
1. Fuel costs
Since it is a performance car, the fuel consumption of the whole vehicle must also be higher. Official data show that the car's WLTC 100 km comprehensive fuel consumption is 8.48L, but this is only the data after all, and the actual measurement is definitely high. Most of the car owners' measured fuel consumption is about 11-12L, xiaobian here to 11.5L / 100km as the standard calculation. This car is added to the 95 gasoline, the current small editor of the location of the oil price of 7.81 yuan / L, if calculated according to each 20,000km (after all, more or less need to go out of the long door in a year), the fuel cost of that year is about 17963 yuan, the average monthly fuel cost is 1496.9 yuan.
Second, maintenance costs
First of all, this model does not provide free first insurance, and if you look at the price of maintenance accessories in 4S stores, it is really not cheap at all. The maintenance interval of the vehicle is 10,000km, and the oil and oil filter are replaced every 10,000km; the air conditioning filter, air filter, brake oil and spark plug are replaced every 20,000km; and the transmission oil is replaced every 60,000km. The cost of small maintenance (10000km) is about 1128 yuan, and the cost of large maintenance (20000km) is about 3499 yuan. If you drive 20,000 kilometers per year, the cost of three years is up to 60,000 kilometers, a total of 19,463 yuan, an average of 6,487 yuan per year, and an average of 540.6 yuan a month. Of course, this price is calculated according to the official maintenance items set by the 4S store, and consumers can also selectively maintain according to the actual practical situation of their own vehicles, plus if there is a purchase of maintenance packages, the cost will be further reduced.
3. Insurance costs
The price of this model is 435,100-611,300 yuan, according to the price of this model, Xiaobian's personal recommendation is to buy a full insurance is more realistic (after all, it is also a luxury car of 500,000 yuan). Insurance costs vary according to regions and car prices, taking Xiamen as an example, Xiaobian recommends purchase: a million (1630 yuan) + car damage insurance (6435 yuan) + no deductible special insurance (1613 yuan) + theft insurance (2577 yuan), plus compulsory traffic insurance (950 yuan), a year's insurance cost is about 13205 yuan (the first year), the average month is 1100 yuan. Of course, this is only the price of the first year, and if there is no insurance, the cost of insurance in the next year will gradually decrease.
4. Miscellaneous expenses
In addition to the basic cost, there must be high-speed fees, parking fees, car wash fees and so on throughout the year. A year's high-speed cost is calculated according to 600 yuan, an average of 50 yuan a month; a month to wash the car twice a week, the car wash fee is 30 yuan, a month is 60 yuan; if you do not buy a parking space, if you rent it every month, the average monthly rent of the Xiaobian location is about 300 yuan, then the average monthly cost of all miscellaneous items is: 50 + 60 + 300 = 410 yuan. In fact, the most expensive is the modification fee, because it is really difficult for friends who pursue performance not to modify, but because the modification fee needs to be combined with its own actual needs, there is no relatively considerable price, so Xiaobian will not take the modification fee into account for the time being.
If the car does not scratch and violate the rules, all the above average monthly expenses add up to: fuel costs of 1496.9 yuan + maintenance costs of 540.6 yuan + insurance costs of 1100 yuan + miscellaneous expenses of 410 yuan = 3547.5 yuan. Although the late maintenance cost of this car is not as expensive as mercedes-Benz S, it is also relatively high in the same class of models, so if you pay according to your current salary, how far are you from this performance car?
