In recent years, the discussion about which is more economical, electric vehicles and fuel vehicles, has not stopped in the automotive industry. The majority view is that electric vehicles have cost advantages in terms of energy consumption, maintenance and even purchase. With the recent rise in oil prices, the advantages of electric vehicles seem to have widened a bit. On March 10, Shen Hui, founder, chairman and CEO of WM Motor, made an account for everyone when talking about the rise in oil prices, believing that electric vehicles can save tens of thousands of dollars compared with fuel vehicles, and suggested that everyone join the camp of electric vehicles.

According to the wisdom car pie, Shen Hui quoted the #95 gasoline running into the 9 yuan era #Weibo topic and said that the international oil price rose to 130 US dollars / barrel, next Thursday 24 o'clock domestic oil prices should rise sharply, No. 95 gasoline will break through 9 yuan / liter. It also gave the majority of netizens a rough calculation: according to the calculation of 50 liters of refueling, it costs more than 450 yuan. The 450 yuan fuel bill converted can be used to charge the pure electric car for several months. According to the calculation of 100,000 kilometers in 5 years, the electricity consumption of smart pure electric vehicles can save about 80,000 yuan more than the fuel cost of oil vehicles, which is almost equal to four LV or Hermès entry-level bags.

However, in the comment area, some stubborn netizens still do not agree with this. Some people have questioned: do you want to change the battery after 5 years and 100,000 kilometers? Do you change it at your own expense or for free? How much does it cost to change the battery? How much residual value is left on the tram after 5 years? Some netizens directly became "prophets", predicting: then the price of electric vehicles increased, the price of electricity increased, charging pile charges, and finally changed back to oil trucks... What do you think about that?
