The essence of returning to the car is just an ordinary means of transportation, but with the continuous improvement of people's lives, the income level has increased, and the functions that people give to the car have become more, in addition to transportation, they must also take into account the attributes of comfort, enjoyment and even "face".
Therefore, when many people buy a car, they have to consider many aspects, on the one hand, in addition to considering practicality, on the other hand, they will also consider comfort, brand power and so on. In the hearts of many people, they feel that after a car is bought back, if a few years later, this car has launched a new model, and there is no difference between their car and a "second-hand car", and driving the same car for a long time, friends around them will also look down on themselves, and after a few years of driving, both the appearance and the interior have a certain wear, and the comfort is greatly reduced.
So many people will buy back a new car, open a 6 years in time for the next year to sell it when the annual inspection is needed, so most of the cars that need to be sold in the second-hand car market are almost in the range of 5-6 years. Although the mainland has abolished the mandatory scrapping of non-operating passenger cars, cars can continue to run even after 15 years, but 15-year-old cars need to be inspected twice a year, and cars have begun to have a variety of aging problems, so most car owners will also choose to scrap after the car is 15 years old.
So the question is, in the end, after a car is bought back, it is sold for 6 years, or is it scrapped after 15 years? Which of these two approaches is more cost-effective? Let's do the math in this issue.
It is not cost-effective for a car to be scrapped
Many people see my title, of course, will think that it is the most cost-effective to drive a car for 15 years, but in fact, this idea is wrong. Looking at the current vehicles on the road, most of them are actually within 6 years of age, and many people are reluctant to drive the car for 15 years, mainly for two reasons.
First, a car has been driving for 15 years, during which time it is impossible to enjoy the excellent experience brought by the new model, while the appearance and interior aging of vehicles that have exceeded 8 years are more obvious. The second is to scrap or replace the car that has been driving for 15 years, no matter which of the two is good, the amount it gets must be very low, only a few thousand pieces, and the price may not even be one-twentieth of the new car, so it seems that the car has no reason to drive to scrap.
Try to avoid selling cars in the first three years
Since the car does not drive for 15 years and is scrapped, when is the best time to sell the car? First of all, we must avoid selling cars in the first three years, especially cars that have just landed, even if they sell cars at the same price, they basically have to lose a purchase tax, so that more than 10,000 will be directly adrift. The first three years of selling cars this period is also particularly embarrassing, belongs to the situation of not new and not old, to the second-hand car market is also particularly easy to be fooled by car dealers, open a particularly low price.
Six years of car sales is the "golden period"
It is recommended that everyone sell cars for about six years is the best, for two reasons: the first point is that the new car is exempt from inspection for six years, and the annual inspection is needed at the beginning of the seventh year, and you sell it in the sixth year to buy a new car, and you can continue to enjoy the six-year exemption, saving part of the annual inspection cost and time.
Secondly, six-year-old cars are the most popular in the second-hand car market, on the one hand, this type of car has a special advantage in price, about half cheaper than the new car, and secondly, after buying it back, the owner itself can continue to drive for another seven or eight years, the highest cost performance, so the car dealer is willing to collect, and the price given naturally will not be too low.
Therefore, selling a car in about six years is really a two-for-one move, the money from selling the car, I add tens of thousands of dollars, and I can change a new car, why not enjoy it?
Try to choose a brand with a high retention rate
If you have decided to sell a car for six years when you buy a car, then try to choose a brand with a high retention rate when buying a car, which is to ensure that you maximize your interests when selling a car.
When it comes to the retention rate, there are three characteristics in the domestic second-hand car market: first, the retention rate of joint venture brands is generally higher than that of domestic brands, second, the retention rate of traditional fuel vehicles is generally higher than that of new energy vehicles, and third, the retention rate of Japanese and German car camps is generally higher than that of other camps.
Therefore, if you want to sell a good price after six years, you should try to avoid choosing new energy vehicles, and it is best to choose in brands such as Toyota, Honda, Volkswagen, and Nissan.
It is worth mentioning that in the later maintenance and maintenance, try to choose to return to the regular 4S shop maintenance, avoid going to the private auto repair plant, this is because to the 4S shop maintenance, you can query the official maintenance and maintenance records, these records are "plus points" when you sell the car, when the time to sell the car if you see your car is in good condition, you can naturally sell a good price.
Don't be too hasty when selling a car
The last point to note is that when selling a car, remember not to be in a hurry, to understand the psychology of second-hand car dealers, they are also reading your psychology, if you show behaviors like selling cars in a hurry to sell cars and use money urgently when selling cars, then it will inevitably be depressed by him.
Therefore, when selling a car, we must be patient, try to compare goods, drive our own car to several different car dealers to assess the price of the car, try to come up with a price that both parties are satisfied with, and finally make a deal.
