Although the 30,000-50,000 yuan micro pure tram market is very hot, there are still many consumers who are more interested in boutique mini cars with higher texture and richer configurations. In the price of 70,000-100,000 yuan, Chery Small Ant sells very well with its back to the "big factory", while zero-run T03 also relies on strong product strength to enter everyone's vision. Because the price range is extremely close, it is also a small tram that focuses on urban transportation, and many consumers are very entangled in which to choose.
Of course, there is also a reason for the entanglement, although the price is not very expensive, but the small ant has Chery car as the "backing", obviously more confident. The zero-run T03 is a member of the "new forces", and it seems to be a little worse in popularity. However, from the perspective of battery life, the zero-run T03 is priced at 79,900 yuan and can reach 403km endurance. In contrast, it takes at least 88,900 yuan on small ants to have an endurance of more than 400km, and it can be seen that the "threshold" of small ants is higher.
In addition, although the purchase of mini cars is convenient, it must also meet the needs of daily use of cars. In this regard, the zero-run T03 body size is a circle larger, so it will have more advantages in space. However, in the zero-run T03 model, the range of options is actually not very much, like the two models priced at 7.99 and 81,900 yuan, although the endurance reaches more than 400km, but even ESP does not have, which is not as good as the small ants of the whole series of ESP. However, at a price of 85,900 yuan, its configuration is more abundant than the small ants priced at 88,900 yuan, with fixed speed cruise, full LCD instruments, and also comes with the Internet of Vehicles and a variety of human-computer interaction functions, which undoubtedly caters to the preferences of young consumers. However, the small ant's all-aluminum body, four-wheel independent suspension, front and rear anti-collision beams, and safety selling points are also rare in the same level of products. Therefore, choosing whether to choose a small ant or a zero-run T03 has become a small problem. This time, we will start from the perspective of using cars and see how much they cost to use them, which may help everyone choose.
The difference in price is not large, and the insurance is only more than 20 yuan
Zero-run T03 in the sale of models, the price of 85,900 yuan Yaojin version can be said to be very popular, in order to avoid a large difference on the insurance costs, we selected a guide price of 88,900 yuan, the endurance also reached more than 400km of the small ant sweet powder semi-sugar version of the 30kW model for comparison.

According to the results of the investigation of insurance costs, after purchasing 3 million three major insurance types, car damage insurance and compulsory traffic insurance, the total premium of the first year of the zero-run T03 Yaojin Edition was about 4540 yuan. If there is no accident in the later use process, the premium will be further reduced after that, we calculate based on the standard premium of 20% off in the second year and 30% off in the third year, the premium required for the three-year zero run T03 Yaojin edition is about 11350 yuan, and the average annual insurance cost is about 3780 yuan.

3. We still purchase 3 million three major insurance types, car damage insurance, and compulsory traffic insurance to calculate the insurance cost of the 30kW 408km model of the semi-sugar version of the small ant sweet powder, and its first-year premium is about 4570 yuan. Also calculated based on the 20% discount of the standard premium in the second year and 30% off in the third year, the total cost of insurance expenses in three years is about 11400 yuan, and the average annual premium is about 3800 yuan. It can be seen that the difference between the premiums of the two is actually not large, only about 20 yuan.
The maintenance cycle is longer, and the average annual maintenance of T03 is about 130 yuan cheaper
According to the purchase manual of the Zero-Run T03, its free first maintenance needs to be carried out at 3 months or 3000 kilometers, and the maintenance items are mainly routine inspections and replacement of gear oil. After that, every 1 year or 10,000 kilometers for a maintenance cycle for small maintenance, the project is the replacement of air conditioning filters and brake fluids, the cost is about 150 yuan. After each small maintenance, 1 year or 10,000 kilometers need to be maintained, in addition to replacing the air conditioning filter and brake fluid, but also the gear oil needs to be replaced, which costs about 490 yuan. Based on the cycle of 60,000 kilometers in three years, the maintenance cost required for the three years of zero-run T03 is about 1900 yuan, and the average annual maintenance cost is about 640 yuan.
Chery Ant's first maintenance is 6 months after purchasing the car or driving 5,000 kilometers (whichever comes first), and the first maintenance includes regular maintenance items for every 5,000 kilometers, replacement of gear oil, and of course, the first warranty is also free. After every 6 months or 5,000 kilometers of driving power battery status inspection, replace the air conditioning filter, this more conventional small maintenance cost is generally about 190 yuan; every 1 year or 30,000 kilometers of replacement reducer gear oil, about 260 yuan; every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers must replace the brake fluid, antifreeze, this big maintenance cost is slightly more expensive, about 350 yuan or so. We take the general family car three years to drive 60,000 kilometers for a car cycle to calculate, small ants in three years in the maintenance of the cost of about 2320 yuan, the average annual maintenance cost of about 773 yuan. In terms of maintenance costs, the difference between the two is only 130 yuan a year.
Small ants consume less energy and save electricity bills
Like the zero-run T03 Yaojin Edition and the Small Ant Sweet Powder Semi-Sugar Edition 30kW 408km model the mileage is more than 400 km, the use of this car is mainly commuted to work, so the vast majority of car owners will still choose to charge at home. According to our survey, the actual energy consumption of zero-run T03 is about 12.9kWh, and we can get about 4330 yuan for zero-running T03 for three years to drive 60,000 kilometers of electricity, and the average month is about 120 yuan.
The actual energy consumption of small ants per 100 kilometers is about 9.4kWh, we still use household electricity consumption of about 0.56 yuan / kWh to calculate, small ants need to travel 60,000 kilometers of electricity for three years is about 3160 yuan, the average month is about 88 yuan.
summary
We add up the above maintenance costs, insurance costs and electricity costs, and we can calculate that the cost of the car for the three-year driving kilometer of the zero-run T03 Yaojin Edition is about 17550 yuan, and the average annual cost of the car is about 5860 yuan. The Chery Small Ant Sweet Powder Semi-Sugar Edition 30kW 408km model costs about 16,900 yuan for driving 60,000 kilometers in three years, with an average annual cost of about 5,630 yuan. It can be seen that in terms of the average annual cost of the car, Chery Little Ant is only about 200 yuan cheaper than the zero-run T03. In fact, many consumers who have very high quality and battery life requirements for pure electric scooters at this price point do not care about their cost in the future. However, for consumers with limited budgets, if the battery life requirements are not high, Chery Ant's low-end models can also give a good quality experience, and at the same time, there can be a little reduction in insurance costs.
