Recently, the latest issue of the China Insurance Research Institute crash test results list updated, the cumulative number of models on the list reached 85, as of now, there are 29 models of independent brands on the list, while the joint venture brand has 56 models on the list, most of which are regular customers on the sales list.
The crash test report card includes a number of SUV such as joint venture and autonomy and an MPV, including hot models such as the Tank 300, Toyota C-HR, Tesla Model Y and so on.
China Insurance Research Institute, as a company led by the China Insurance Industry Association, jointly established by a number of insurance companies. It mainly provides data support for car insurance and other businesses, so most of the vehicles under test are well-known models. In addition to attracting market attention, these models also have many interesting stories.
After the resumption of production, the tank 300 is still difficult to find
In this test, the tank 300 as the only self-owned brand model, the performance is very outstanding. The Tank 300 has achieved excellent (G) ratings in terms of occupant safety, pedestrian safety outside the vehicle, and vehicle assistance safety, and crash resistance and maintenance economy are also one of the two models with the best performance in the test.
The Tank 300 has been in short supply since its launch, and was previously discontinued. On April 21, the tank brand said in its official app that the Chongqing factory responsible for producing the tank 300 will resume production on April 22, and the specific models include the tank 300 city version and the off-road version.
In many other car forums or social groups, more discussion is about "discounts, maintenance", etc., while tank 300 users discuss more about "how long does it take to queue up to pick up the car?" "You know, the tank 300 needs to queue up from before the "lack of core".
Tank 300 also changed the phenomenon that off-road vehicles are only popular in small circles, and many consumers buy Tank 300 not to "go wild". Mr. Xu, the owner of the tank 300 who just picked up the car, said: "I don't plan to go off-road, I just think the shape of the tank 300 is very man."
Tesla wants to buy purchase tax?
As the only pure electric model in this test, the Model Y achieved excellent results in various crash tests with the high strength of the one-piece frame, and it was not surprising that it achieved excellent (G) evaluation in terms of auxiliary safety, but it did not perform well in the "ghost probe" test.
However, the maintenance cost of the Model Y is slightly higher, and the impact resistance and maintenance economy are poorly evaluated (P). Previously, some netizens broke the news that their own Model Y collided when reversing, requiring "sky-high" maintenance fees. It can be said that "the body is formed in one, and the body is formed in one" and the body is formed in one" is lost.
Previously, there was an internal Tesla email circulating on the Internet, "Starting in 2023, the purchase of Tesla will be purchased with purchase tax." However, this news has not been officially confirmed by Tesla.
In fact, as early as March 31, 2020, the executive meeting of the State Council confirmed that the new energy vehicle purchase subsidy and purchase tax exemption policy will be extended for 2 years, that is, the new energy vehicle purchase tax will be levied after December 31, 2022. However, at present, the relevant departments have not yet issued a notice of another extension of the purchase tax exemption policy.
In the future, if the purchase of new energy vehicles really needs to collect purchase tax, I don't know if it will start to be good for fuel vehicles again.
Tianyi, which advertises "safety", is not too safe
The results of the Dongfeng Citroen Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS participating in the test are not outstanding, because the tested model has no auxiliary safety configuration, the test was not tested, and only the safety of laymen in other projects has been evaluated as excellent (G).
Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS received only good (A) ratings in 25% bias collision, side impact, and roof strength tests. Such performance is not bad, but as a model that has been promoting "safety" since the beginning of the listing, Tianyi C5 AIRCROSS is not a good performance.
The Japanese SUV that is not popular
The Toyota C-HR is a model under the TNGA architecture and is as stable as ever. Previously, Toyota brand models have never made mistakes in the C-HR research test, including C-HR's brother model Yize has also undergone the crash test of the C-HR research institute, and the results of the C-HR test are the same.
However, the C-HR, as a long-on-market model, is no longer as popular as it was when it first launched, and in the March SUV sales list, C-HR ranked nearly 100. In addition to the fact that the model is no longer "fresh", there is also the fact that the C-HR is too small to be suitable for most home users. In particular, the back window of the C-HR is too small, and it is ridiculed by everyone as "like being locked up".
Similar to the C-HR is Dongfeng Nissan X-Trail, which has excellent results in crash tests.
Similarly, X-Trail's sales are not good, and in the March SUV sales list, X-Trail even ranked outside the 100th. You know, before the new generation of X-Trail was listed, X-Trail's sales volume was in the top ten of the list for a long time. This is related to the use of a three-cylinder engine by the new generation of X-Trail, which has not been able to "convince" domestic consumers despite the use of many of the latest technologies.
