After the launch of the new energy vehicle exclusive insurance, we have made an understanding of the rise in insurance costs of many new energy models, and after the data sample gradually increased, we found that in addition to Tesla, many new energy vehicles under Mercedes-Benz have also risen a lot in insurance costs. Today we will take a look at as an imported new energy vehicle, Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy will continue such a situation, at the same time, after the launch of new insurance, what is its current car maintenance cost, compared to the fuel version of the model Does it still have the property of saving money?
At present, the main sales model of Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy is the 2022 GLE 350 e 4MATIC coupe SUV, and the price of naked cars in the terminal market is basically around 800,000 yuan. Today we will take a look at its insurance costs, maintenance costs and energy consumption costs.
Insurance Costs:
According to the provisions of the exclusive insurance of new energy vehicles, when new energy vehicles purchase car damage insurance, insurance companies need to bear additional coverage such as spontaneous combustion and three-power quality than fuel vehicles, which is why many new energy vehicles are now increasing in the price of premiums. Sales tell us that according to the current delivery of vehicles, Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy has not increased much in insurance costs. Nowadays, the price of buying 3 million three types of insurance, car damage insurance and compulsory traffic insurance is almost 22601 yuan, which is basically no different from the original.
If we assume that there has been no accident for three years, after calculating the insurance company's declining discount year by year, the total insurance cost required for this car for three years is 56502 yuan, and the average annual premium expenditure is 18834 yuan.
Maintenance cost:
And most of the ordinary Mercedes-Benz fuel vehicles are similar, as a plug-in hybrid model of Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy maintenance cycle is also 10,000 kilometers of maintenance, divided into A maintenance and B maintenance two kinds of alternating, of which the price of A maintenance is 1255 yuan, in addition to the conventional replacement of oil and filter, but also need to do a vehicle inspection including the three-electric system. B maintenance adds the replacement of air filters on the basis of A maintenance, and the cost is 1742 yuan.
Then there is the replacement of consumables when a certain number of kilometers is reached, including spending 448 yuan per 20,000 kilometers to replace the air filter, spending 409 yuan to replace the brake oil every 40,000 kilometers, and spending 1261 yuan to replace the spark plug. Then there is the replacement of transmission oil at 60,000 kilometers, and the cost is 2922 yuan.
So if we assume that if we drive 60,000 kilometers in three years, the total cost of maintenance required for three years is 14,927 yuan, and the cost of maintenance in one year is 4,975 yuan.
Energy consumption cost:
According to our tests, the fuel consumption of Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy under comprehensive conditions is almost 7L/100km, while its power consumption in pure electric mode is almost 31kWh/100km. We assume that the mileage of a year is 20,000 kilometers, of which fuel drive travels 10,000 kilometers, pure electricity travels 10,000 kilometers, Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy needs to add 95 gasoline price of 7.8 yuan / L, and pure electric mode we assume that it is charged in the public charging pile, the current average price of electricity is 1.7 yuan / kWh. By calculation, in our hypothetical case, the annual energy consumption cost of this car is 10730 yuan, and the average monthly cost is 894 yuan.
summary:
By adding up the insurance cost, maintenance cost and energy consumption cost, we conclude that a Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy without calculating other soft expenses, the annual car maintenance cost is almost 34539 yuan, the average monthly car maintenance cost is about 2878 yuan, although it is said that compared to the fuel version of the model can save hundreds of yuan, but close to 3000 yuan of monthly car maintenance costs for a green card of new energy vehicles is indeed a less than ideal result. Of course, car buyers who are willing to spend a million dollars to buy Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe new energy may not necessarily care about how much money can be saved by raising a car.
