A new round of domestic refined oil price adjustment window will open, "six consecutive rises have become a foregone conclusion," At present, after a round of oil prices 10 working days of statistics, the current estimate is expected to rise by 735 yuan / ton, replaced by liter calculations, that is, it is expected to rise by 0.56 yuan / liter -0.66 yuan / liter. This makes 95 gasoline enter the "9 yuan era". Of course, the final increase is subject to the official release. According to the current oil price is expected to rise, starting tomorrow to fill a 50-liter tank of gasoline and diesel will cost 28 yuan to 33 yuan more than today, and the compromise is 30 yuan more. For the riders of the big truck, it will cost more money. Based on a 200-liter fuel tank, it will cost at least $112 more to fill it up tomorrow than it would be today.
Recently, there have been frequent passages on the Internet about high oil prices, such as "filling up a tank of oil can buy a bicycle, filling two tanks of oil can buy a small electric donkey, and filling three tanks of oil can buy a motorcycle." The rise in oil prices has also triggered a discussion about whether to change electric vehicles, and many netizens said, "Give half a year to observe, if oil prices have remained high, then there is a real plan." "High oil prices will prompt me to buy trams, and in addition to the oil prices, the maintenance fees of trams are much cheaper than those of oil trucks."
It is worth mentioning that although new energy vehicles are much lower than fuel vehicles in terms of car costs, at this stage, buying new energy vehicles is also facing problems such as price increases and long waiting cycles. Since the end of 2021, due to the price increase of upstream raw materials and important parts, the decline of new energy subsidies and other reasons, almost all new energy vehicle companies have raised the price of their new energy models.
Among them, Tesla has raised the price of the Model 3 high-performance version and the Model Y long-endurance and high-performance version twice in just five days, and the cumulative price adjustment is 28,000 yuan, 28,000 yuan and 30,000 yuan, respectively. Gac Aeon also adjusted the official guidance price of its AION Y, AION S Plus, AION V Plus and other related models from the 4th of this month.
Fang Yunzhou, founder and chairman of Nezha Automobile, said: "(Price increases) are staged, raw materials are rising, the demand for new energy vehicles is increasing, and at the same time it is related to the international situation, and there are also capital speculations, shorts or longs in it, which have an impact." Looking at the long cycle of eight or ten years, it is only a small fluctuation now, which has pressure on the current operation of the enterprise, but it is not a big problem in the long run. It now appears that this problem may take more than a year or more to alleviate."
The data shows that most of the raw material suppliers currently offer battery-grade lithium carbonate at about 500,000 yuan / ton. In addition to lithium salts, nickel, zinc, copper, iron, chromium, platinum and other metal raw materials are also rising in price. Due to the impact of the international situation, nickel has soared in the recent price, and its increase once exceeded 100%.
In the context of the price increase of upstream materials, car companies in the most downstream of the industrial chain have begun to adjust the prices of their new energy models. After Tesla's two rises in five days, BYD also announced on March 15 that BYD Automobile will adjust the official guidance price of new energy models related to Dynasty Network and Ocean Network, ranging from 3,000 yuan to 6,000 yuan. The price adjustment will take effect from 00:00 on March 16, and customers who have signed a deposit before that time will not be affected by this price adjustment.
According to CCTV, since entering March, nearly 20 new energy vehicle companies have announced price increases, involving nearly 40 models, with mixed increases. According to preliminary statistics, new car-making forces, joint venture brands, imported brands, etc. are all in the range of price increases, and the price increase ranges from 1% to 10%, ranging from less than 1,000 yuan to tens of thousands of yuan.
Like Tesla and BYD, car companies attribute the price increase to a sharp rise in raw materials in the short term, which is difficult for them to bear. As for the reasons for the surge in raw materials, many industry insiders pointed out to Times Finance that "in addition to the epidemic, changes in the international political situation have also boosted the price of raw materials to a certain extent."
In addition, on December 27 last year, new energy vehicle insurance was officially launched, and 12 property insurance companies launched new energy vehicle insurance products at the same time. The exclusive insurance of new energy vehicles not only insures the "three major parts" of new energy vehicles, namely batteries, motors and electronic control systems, but also covers various use scenarios such as driving, parking and charging of new energy vehicles. A Tesla Model Y owner in Guangzhou provided information to the Times Weekly reporter that under the condition that the amount of insurance was basically unchanged, the car insurance quotation before the new regulations was 6321 yuan, of which the car damage insurance was 3896 yuan (284,000 insurance amount); after the new regulations, the car insurance quotation became 9292 yuan, of which the car damage insurance rose to 6022 yuan (286,000 insurance amount). Another Tesla Model Y owner revealed that the car insurance quotation before the new regulations was 8278.62 yuan, of which the car damage insurance was 5797.92 yuan (363,900 insurance amount); while the car insurance quotation became 14902.52 yuan after the new regulations, and the car damage insurance rose to 12736.43 yuan (363,900 insurance amount), which is close to the full insurance of the new Mercedes-Benz S-class.
The data shows that The ideal ONE premium before the new regulations was 6823.02 yuan and rose to 7357.39 yuan after the new regulations; the WEILAI ES8, which cost 448,000 yuan, the premium before the new regulations was 6141.68 yuan, and then rose to 7838.69 yuan after the new regulations; while the bydy Qin, which was priced at 173,300 yuan, was 4538.96 yuan before the new regulations, and dropped to 4303.23 yuan after the new regulations; the roewe price was 228,200 yuan, and the premium before the new regulations was 4902.06 yuan, which was reduced to 4548.8 yuan after the new regulations.
Some insiders said that according to the current market, raw materials are still likely to rise under the impetus of various factors, and new energy vehicles may continue to increase prices in the future. Maybe in addition to the wages not rising, everything has risen, the price of oil has soared, and you may not be able to replace electric vehicles?
