Affected by the global chip shortage, rising raw material prices and other factors, resulting in a long delivery time for new cars, many domestic second-hand car markets are particularly hot, and the trading volume of second-hand cars has shown a trend of rising year by year in recent years. Because they can't buy new cars, many car consumers have shifted their attention to second-hand cars, and related second-hand models are in short supply at once, and the price of second-hand cars is higher than the price of new cars.
According to statistics released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, last year, the total number of used car transactions nationwide reached 17.5851 million units, an increase of 22.62% year-on-year; while the previous year, the national used car trading volume was 14.34 million units, an increase of 17.84% over 2019.
The high-end new energy vehicle market also relies on Tesla to shine, and some high-end new energy second-hand car transactions represented by Tesla are also hot, and there is even a situation where prices are inverted and supply is in short supply.
Tesla's official Model Y rear-wheel-drive version shows a price of 301,000, while the model Y's used car with the same configuration on the auto home is 338,000. If you exclude other expenses such as purchase tax insurance premiums, the second-hand price of Tesla's new energy vehicles with the same configuration is more than 30,000 yuan more expensive than the price of new cars.
According to the tesla official website tips, if you can't get a new car immediately after buying a new car, you have to wait for 10-14 months, that is, about 3 months.
A second-hand car dealer broke the news that the new energy used cars in the store are mainly Tesla, and the sales are relatively hot, "basically to sell one." ”
Another second-hand car dealer in Rongmei Road, Shanghai, said: At present, the two Tesla Model Y in the store are purchased from the factory. You can see how hot it is!
"The price of Tesla Model Y in September 2021 is about 276,000 yuan, because now the new car has to wait for about half a year, so now the price of used cars has risen to more than 300,000 yuan, and the price of used cars we collect is more expensive than new cars."
Most of the customers are related to the poor performance of second-hand new energy batteries and retention rates, statistics from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers show that the 3-year retention rate of traditional fuel vehicles is about 65%, while the 3-year retention rate of new energy vehicles is only about 43%, far lower than that of traditional fuel vehicles.
