When the Toyota Highlander was just finished last year, I learned in the terminal market that the old 2.0T Highlander model still has a high degree of attention, and there are still people buying new cars. Pay attention to a wave of Toyota Highlander 2.0T new car prices, 258,800, 299,800 and 306,800, the official gave these three prices.
For users who are willing to choose the old model, they are buying the old model, is it more valuable to choose the cheaper second-hand Highlander?
The information given by the second-hand car dealer is 15 Highlanders, which cost 220,000-230,000 yuan for about 100,000 kilometers; 17 models are priced at less than 250,000; and 18 models are priced at about 290,000 cars in about 2 years. Buy a second-hand Toyota Highlander, can we pick up leaks?
Want to pick up leaks, 2018 models two kinds of maximum value?
The previous toyota Highlander was replaced in March 2015, followed by a six-year sales history (the current model is still on sale in the 2.0T version). The high retention rate of this car is indeed beyond my imagination, taking the 2018 model of the car as an example, in 2019, the license plate traveled about 10,000 kilometers, the new car landing price is about 325,000, the second-hand car price is about 298,000, or the national six engine.
The 2018 model of the car is not much information in the used car market, there are few resources that can be found, and the lowest price is around 250,000. And this relatively low-price model, either the low-end version, or the high-end model high kilometers.
For another example, the 2018 2.0T four-wheel drive elite version, which was listed in January 2020, can be said to be relatively new in the year of the card, driving about 30,000 kilometers, and the price of second-hand cars is about 250,000 yuan. The current 2.0T elite version on sale is priced at 258,800 yuan, plus purchase tax and other miscellaneous expenses, landing is close to about 290,000, so it is better to buy a second-hand car; and according to the year, the warranty period of three years or 100,000 kilometers is still there.
It is still within the warranty period and the number of kilometers traveled is moderately low-end second-hand Highlander, so it is still quite appropriate, after all, it is exempt from a purchase tax. And the engine and transmission are all combined with the current model, the powertrain of 8AR-FTS and 6AT, which is no different from the current model, and there is also a four-wheel drive system.
2018 2.0T four-wheel drive elite class Toyota Highlander is suitable for "picking leaks", there is a kind of 2018 four-wheel drive luxury version is also a national six engine, and the current 2.0T version of the powertrain is the same, in 2020, the license plate, driving 10,000 kilometers, buying a second-hand car can save a purchase tax. The above two kinds of cars, in the absence of major injuries are worth considering, both are also national six engines during the warranty period, and the powertrain has not changed.
To mention the large-displacement Highlander, before the 2018 model, the 2017 model and the 2015 model respectively launched the Toyota Highlander with a 2GR 3.5L large-displacement engine. But it's hard to find information about the 2017 Toyota Highlander 3.5L version in the used car market, and most of them are 3.5L versions of the 2015 model.
The price of this version of the model in the second-hand car market is roughly between 220,000 and 300,000 yuan, and the general driving kilometer is between 70,000 and 100,000 kilometers. For first-tier cities, this large-displacement model is no longer suitable for opening in the city, and the road conditions are not friendly; for second- and third-tier cities, the relative living environment is more friendly. When choosing this kind of car, because it is not in the warranty period, and the license years are relatively long, as far as possible to pick the number of kilometers traveled, the maintenance record is complete.
These two situations need to be considered more
It's not that it's not worth it, it's just that just looking at it makes you feel a bit of a loss. The 2021 Toyota Highlander two-wheel drive deluxe version, the landing price is about 314,600, the warranty period from July 2021 to July 24, driving 10,000 kilometers, the price of the second-hand car is about 298,000 yuan; while the current 2.0T four-wheel drive luxury version on sale is priced at 299,800 yuan. If you spend 298,000 on a used car and you have the purchase tax left, then you lose a four-wheel drive system + a "new car" And if you buy a new car, the price is almost between 310,000 and 320,000.
If I'm on a budget, I'm more inclined to buy a new car of either of these two options.
Another situation, 2021 (current) Toyota Highlander 2.0T four-wheel drive luxury version, is also the engine of the national six, in April 2021 on the license, only traveled 0.6 million kilometers of quasi-new car, the price of the second-hand car is 318,000 yuan, is it worth buying? First of all, to clarify a few points, this car does not save much money than the new car, it may also save about 10,000; the warranty period, by April this year, there are only about two years left.
I personally think that with reference to the terminal situation of the dealer in your location, if you need to wait for the car for a long time and you are in a hurry to use the car, in this case, the second-hand car that does not save much money can be considered. If the local dealer waits for the car for a long time or you are not in a hurry to use the car, this car is not worth buying, after all, it is not much cheaper, and the warranty period is only about 2 years left.
summary
From 2015 to 2021, the powertrain of the previous generation Toyota Highlander has not been overly adjusted, maintaining the 8AR+6AT assembly, the change is in the software adjustment, and it does not involve the purchase of used cars to see the hardware version.
To sum up a few points, Toyota AnhanLanda this car has a high retention rate, the longer the license plate is cheaper, do not care about the warranty period, try to choose the most cost-effective 2015 model, basically within 250,000. Of course, you have to look at the number of kilometers, if it is more than 100,000 kilometers, you need to examine the vehicle condition. If you care about the warranty period, if you want to leave the purchase tax, then look at the models that are licensed around 2020, and the models that are licensed in 2021 are basically about 10,000 yuan cheaper than the new car.
