Can't afford it! The annual oil cost is 20,000 more

Old Li, a ride-hailing driver

The 43-year-old Li is a full-time ride-hailing driver who has been in the ride-hailing industry for 6 years and drives a Nissan sedan. Lao Li said that the recent successive price increases, according to a year, the oil cost is about 20,000 yuan more than before. "In the first half of last year, it was almost 0.53 yuan per kilometer. Now each tank of oil is more than 70 yuan, a year alone will cost about 20,000 yuan more, according to this method, it is better to change the line. ”

According to him, his basic daily kilometers are between 250-350 kilometers, and if you calculate it comprehensively, your annual kilometers will be 80,000-110,000 kilometers. At least 80 kilometers a day are wasted on air running and receiving orders, and this cost alone will cost more than 10,000 yuan a year. "So running 100,000 kilometers can run more than 100,000 streams."

In addition, Lao Li also said that maintenance and repair of the car is also a big cost. "If it is not an operating vehicle, the insurance cost is about 3,000 yuan, plus 10,000 kilometers of maintenance, the annual maintenance cost is at least more than 4,000 yuan." If there is a little problem, it must be repaired, and it is necessary to spend 2 to 3 thousand a year on repairing the car. ”

Therefore, according to the situation of Lao Li, the oil cost in the year before the price increase was 53,000 yuan, plus 3,000 yuan of insurance, more than 4,000 yuan of maintenance, and 2,000 yuan of maintenance costs, and the fixed expenditure for a year was almost 62,000 yuan. Today, the oil price has broken through 9, and the fixed expenditure of Lao Li in a year has risen to more than 80,000 yuan.

Finally, Lao Li also said that the recent soaring oil prices have made him think of changing careers. "But after 6 years of work, I am used to it, and if I suddenly find a fixed-time job, I may not be used to it." However, if oil prices continue to rise, in order to make a living, whether it is suitable or not, it will change careers. ”

Switch! Isn't delivering food better than running a ride-hailing car?

Old Fang, part-time online ride-hailing driver

Lao Fang introduced that he can only be regarded as half of the online car driver, working in a warehousing and logistics company during the day, and will only come out to run the online car after work. But now the higher and higher oil prices have gradually reduced the enthusiasm of the old party to run online ride-hailing cars. "I originally thought that my children would be ready to go to high school, and they would go to college in the future, and it would be a little bit to earn a little, but now the price of oil is so high, there is nothing to make."

It is reported that the old party is now driving the online car is his own private car, usually 100 kilometers of fuel consumption is almost 7L, oil prices in more than 7 yuan, the cost per kilometer is 0.52 yuan. "Because I was just running off work, the mileage of the online car in a year was almost 40,000 kilometers, and the fuel cost in the previous year was about 20,000 yuan." Now the price of oil per liter has risen to more than 9 yuan, and the annual oil cost will be 8,000 yuan-10,000 yuan more. ”

Lao Fang also said that oil prices continue to rise, and he may consider changing part-time jobs. "Now the more we run, the more we earn, we don't necessarily earn more, because when we don't have guests, we're running in the air, and the fuel bill is getting more." I really can't hold back and am considering buying a 'little electric donkey' to run a few takeaway orders. ”

For whether to change the electric car, the old party said, for the time being, do not consider, "changing the car is another amount of money, but also charging, I run for half a day, charging another 1 hour, not much money." ”

"Oil prices are crazy, change to electric cars!"

Xiao Zhang, company administration

Xiao Zhang, a company executive who currently owns a Volkswagen Bora, said that if he changed cars, he might consider changing an electric car.

According to Xiao Zhang, he has a car at home, so he picks up his children to school, drives 100 kilometers to visit his parents on weekends, plus some leisure short-distance travel plans, and the mileage of almost 10,000 kilometers is almost 10,000 kilometers a year. "Now the fuel consumption of this car is about 8L, and the fuel cost is almost 6,000 yuan a year, plus 2 maintenance costs of 1,000 yuan, insurance is about 3,000 yuan, and the cost is less than 10,000 yuan a year."

Xiao Zhang said that his car has been driving for 7 to 8 years, and when he is struggling with whether to change the electric car, the oil price has begun to soar, perhaps this is the signal of his own electric car. According to him, the reason why he has the idea of changing electric vehicles is because friends have changed a Tesla Model 3, at the same price, the quiet driving experience and intelligent operation of electric vehicles are one notch higher than that of fuel vehicles.

In addition, the soaring price of oil has also become a pain in the hearts of owners of fuel vehicles. "The price of this oil is crazy. In the past few years, I have watched the price of oil rise from more than 5 yuan and more than 6 yuan to more than 8 yuan to 9 yuan today, then my annual oil bill is more than 2,000 yuan higher than when it was 6 yuan. The extra 2,000 yuan is higher than the electricity bill of an electric car for a year, so why don't I change to an electric car? ”

"Compared to the Haval H6, it's still a little electric donkey that suits me!"

Xiao Wang, a company employee

Xiao Wang bought a Haval H6, and the most common car is commuting. For the continuous surge in oil prices, he said that he can barely accept it now, but if it continues to rise, he estimates that he will consider riding a battery car to work.

According to Xiao Wang, the actual fuel consumption of his car for 100 kilometers is 9L, and the usual car is commuting, occasionally going out on weekends, and running almost 500 kilometers a month. According to the latest round of refined oil prices, the current price of Gansu 92 # gasoline is 8.04 yuan, that is to say, the oil cost of Xiaowang 100 kilometers is 72.36 yuan, and if the cost of 500 kilometers is 361.8 yuan.

Xiao Wang said that his car fuel consumption is a bit high, but he does not run much, after the oil price has risen, now the monthly fuel expenditure is 70 to 80 yuan more than the first half of last year: "Spending more money will not affect the quality of life, but if it continues to rise, it may be time to ride to work." We young people have to repay loans, and the pressure is great. ”
