As the main model in the Buick SUV camp, The Sales has been performing well, and even sells 20,000 or 30,000 units a month at its best time, with its large space and luxurious interior to seize the market for many medium-sized SUVs. On this basis, Buick launched the Oncovi Plus last year, further upgrading in space and luxury, the market for this car is not small, product strength has also won the recognition of many consumers. So let's take a look at the current offers and current car situation of Oncovi Plus, and see if it is the right time to buy it now?
Discount 30,000 yuan, 2.0T has a current car
Since the launch of Buick Encore Plus last year, although the sales performance in the mid-size SUV market is not outstanding, Buick's own product matrix is still the main sales model, and it can have one or two thousand units sold every month. Judging from the sales performance of a 4S store we visited, the best-selling model in Oncovi Plus is the "2021 Oncovey Plus 652T five-seat luxury", with a guidance price of 252,900 yuan. Equipped with a 2.0T engine + 48V light hybrid power system, the power of this car can reach 237 horsepower, 26 horsepower higher than 1.5T, and the acceleration of 100 kilometers is 0.5s faster, and the power performance seems to be more in line with its identity.
In addition, although this car is a 2.0T sub-low-end model, the configuration on the car is very complete, and it has more functions such as active braking, reversing side warning, steering wheel/front seat heating than the 2.0T entry-level version, and safety and comfort have been improved by a notch. In general, for other configurations, comprehensive power, configuration and other factors, Oncovi Plus's "five-seat luxury" does have a good cost performance. It is worth mentioning that although the overall vehicle supply situation of Buick Cars is relatively tense at present, there are still a small number of existing cars in the store for this hot-selling model of Oncovi Plus, which is undoubtedly good news for friends who want to buy Oncove Plus.
As for the situation of the discount, according to the information told by the sales, from the end of last year to the present, the discount has basically not changed too obviously, and it is still maintained at a preferential range of about 30,000 yuan. Taking the hot-selling model "2021 Oncovey Plus 652T five-seat luxury" as an example, on the basis of the guidance price of 252900 yuan, after counting the cash discount of 30,000 yuan, it is also necessary to pay some hard expenses for car purchase, including purchase tax (about 19460 yuan), insurance costs (about 6500 yuan) and license fees (about 1000 yuan), it can be calculated that the final landing price of this car is about 249860 yuan.
Details can be found in the following table:
Through communication with sales, we learned that the car buyers of Oncove Plus are basically male consumers, who mainly want to buy a second car for their families, thinking that they can usually take their children out to play, so the primary factor in car buying is to have a large space. As a medium-sized SUV with 5 seats/7 seats to choose from, oncway Plus itself is enough to meet the needs of most people for space, in addition, Oncway Plus also has a wealth of configurations and abundant power performance, which are also more satisfactory aspects of consumers.
Highlander can save fuel, but the cost performance depends on Oncove Plus?
If you want to buy a medium-sized SUV with a large space, of course, not only buick Encore Plus, but also a very competitive "opponent" in this price point. At present, Highlander basically has no discounts, the new model does not have a cash car, it is estimated to wait for at least a month, in this regard, Encore Plus is more dominant. However, in terms of product strength, which of the two cars has more advantages?
From the perspective of body size alone, the new Highlander is significantly better than the Encore Plus, but the actual ride will not feel much difference, after all, as a medium-sized SUV with 5 seats/7 seats, the space itself is their strength. The advantage of Oncove Plus is naturally in the rich configuration and materials in the car, the price of 250,000 can buy an ideal model, but for Highlander, to reach the same level, at least to pull the budget up tens of thousands of yuan.
In addition, Highlander is equipped with the latest 2.5L hybrid system, providing a maximum of 183kW of system comprehensive power, better than the 2.0T Oncovey Plus, and the maximum fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 5.8L, in contrast, oncovey Plus not only has higher fuel consumption, but also adds No. 95 gasoline, and the cost of car maintenance is bound to be higher.
It can be seen that the two cars have a good product strength, but after subdivision, after the upgrade of Highlander, the performance has indeed been greatly improved, the space is larger, the fuel consumption is lower, the overall performance is also outstanding, and the later maintenance is also relatively cheap, but unfortunately there is no discount, and it is a waste of a month to wait for the car. The Oncovi Plus has better configuration and materials, which is an excellent level of the same level of models, coupled with nearly 30,000 yuan of terminal discounts, the cost performance is very prominent.
Let's take a look at the use of the two cars after buying a car.
The vehicle maintenance part, Buick Encore Plus first guarantee is carried out at 5,000 kilometers, and then every 10,000 kilometers. The price of small maintenance is 700 yuan, according to the three-year driving of 60000km for a large maintenance cycle, the maintenance cost of oncway Plus for three years is about 13602 yuan, an average of 4534 yuan per year.
Toyota Highlander's first insurance is also carried out at 5,000 kilometers, and the follow-up maintenance cycle is 10,000 kilometers or 12 months, and the small maintenance price is 751 yuan. Because the first two maintenance is free, and there are fewer replacement items in the later stage, the maintenance cost of 60000km for three years is about 5771 yuan, an average of about 1923 yuan per year, which can save nearly half of the cost than oncove Plus.
Then there is the residual value of the second-hand car of the two cars.
We learned from a mainstream used car platform that the landing price of Buick Encore Plus "2021 Avenir Evia Seven-Seat Edition" was about 300,000 yuan at the time, and after buying a car for more than half a year after driving 0.4 million kilometers, the current residual value of second-hand cars is 265,800 yuan.
Toyota Highlander "2018 2.0T four-wheel drive luxury edition 7-seat national VI", the landing price at that time was about 320,000 yuan, after buying a car for more than a year after driving 13,000 kilometers, the current second-hand car residual value is 292,900 yuan, it can be seen that the retention rate of Highlander is higher.
Write at the end
From the current terminal market situation of Buick Encore Plus, the hot-selling models have a cash discount of nearly 30,000 yuan, and the hot-selling 2.0T models have existing cars to mention, compared to the Highlander no discount no cash car situation, it seems that the current win of Oncove Plus is also a good choice. Overall, after counting the price after the discount, you can buy a model with luxury materials and configurations such as Oncovi Plus, and the cost performance is very good.
