As an old driver with 8 years of driving experience, the reporter witnessed the lowest peak of oil prices, and whether the current oil prices have reached the highest peak is not yet known.

The price of oil has become a hot topic of discussion among drivers around, and "can't afford to add fuel" has also become a mantra hanging on the lips of drivers. At the same time, when everyone is talking about the cost of fuel vehicle travel, new energy vehicles are gradually becoming popular in the market. People who have the need to buy a car are discussing whether to choose a fuel vehicle or a new energy vehicle? The reporter went deep into the market to investigate.
In Wulingshan Automobile City, the reporters first entered the domestic brand Hongqi Automobile Sales 4S store. According to the brand salesman Wang Dayun, Hongqi belongs to the leader of domestic brands, the brand currently has two types of fuel and new energy models, new energy vehicles only eqm5, fuel vehicle models can choose more. The brand's eqm5 new energy vehicle is priced at about 180,000 yuan, with an endurance of 431 kilometers, and the battery can be replaced for 8 years or 160,000 kilometers. And its fuel car HS5, priced at only about 150,000 yuan. Compared with the pricing and price space of new energy vehicles, the price fluctuation space of fuel vehicles of the brand is larger.
Walking into the most popular store of new energy vehicles at present, BYD Ocean Series 4s stores can be described as crowded. According to the sales staff, the weekend store is even more crowded. The brand's only pure electric vehicle "Dolphin", its vitality of 301 km, priced at 102,800 yuan, its free and fashion model endurance of 405 km, the price increased by 1-20,000 yuan. This pure electric vehicle, there is no existing car, such as the purchase of a car needs to wait for a long time, and affected by the epidemic, its core chip price increased, resulting in an increase in the price of the vehicle. The rest of the models sold by BYD are hybrid cars, and the price is not much different from that of ordinary fuel vehicles.
In the high-end brand BMW 4S store, the sales staff introduced that the brand only has one new energy vehicle for bmw i3, in addition to the drive for the battery, its style and BMW i3 fuel vehicle is exactly the same, the endurance is 359 kilometers, the price of 300,000 yuan to start. A fuel vehicle of the brand is priced at more than 300,000 yuan, and the discount enjoyed by the car is about 60,000 yuan.
In the Changan BenBen store, the salesman introduced that since the end of last year, the price of Changan BenBen micro-electric vehicles has risen from 39800 yuan to 49800 yuan, and has now risen to 53800 yuan, and the price has an upward trend, and there is no current car to mention.
During the reporter's interview, the views of major automobile operations and sales on the advantages and disadvantages of new energy vehicles and electric vehicles are more consistent. From the perspective of national macro development policies, the development of new energy vehicles is the trend of the times. The State Council New Office reported at the press conference on the development of industry and informatization in the first quarter of this year that the output of new energy vehicles increased by 140.8%. From the perspective of economic policy, the purchase subsidy and tax rate concessions for the purchase of new energy vehicles will continue until the end of 2022. However, everyone mentioned that the endurance and charging of new energy vehicles are the problem.
The endurance of new energy vehicles is different, and their batteries are greatly affected by road conditions and temperature levels, and the general endurance must be discounted by 30% from the standard quantity. At the same time, new energy needs to be equipped with the installation of charging piles, after the purchase of a car, whether the property is allowed to install, whether the owner has a special parking space, will become a problem of hesitation and consideration when the owner buys a car. As the most expensive part of the battery of new energy vehicles, it is the same as the mobile phone battery, and there will be loss when used. At the same time, the impact of fast charging and slow charging on battery life has not yet been supported by data. After the battery reaches the expiration date, the cost of replacement is about 60,000 yuan.
At present, the major new energy sellers have launched a lifelong maintenance service, non-human factors, once the battery loss ratio is reached, the battery can be replaced for free, and its identification is measured by professionals, and the owner does not have a say in this regard, which is a potential hidden danger. Similarly, the concept of environmental protection advocated by new energy vehicles is environmentally friendly in itself, but is the treatment after battery loss and damage environmental protection? New energy vehicles are still emerging development industries in the mainland, and there are no cases of battery processing, so the results of this topic are not yet known.
According to the sales department, the current purchase of new energy vehicles in the family, generally have a fuel car, affected by oil prices, most of the buyers commute to work will choose new energy vehicles, and short-distance or long-distance travel, by the battery life and charging pile equipped with insufficient, charging time is longer, new energy vehicles are not favored.
Compared with new energy vehicles, the purchase of fuel vehicles does not need to worry about endurance, only from the family needs and economic capabilities and vehicle price considerations. Of course, fuel vehicles have natural defects in environmental protection. Undoubtedly, if you consider it from the national level and environmental protection, new energy vehicles are naturally the trend of the times.
Wu Bin, head of the Xiangxi Automobile Chamber of Commerce, introduced: "In the promotion of new energy vehicles, the mainland is at the forefront of the world. However, combined with the local situation, the popularity of new energy vehicles is not as obvious as everyone thinks. One is that the infrastructure is not matched. The installation of charging piles in urban areas is insufficient, and there is no relevant site to expand public charging piles. Second, there are not enough parking spaces in the old residential areas to install home-style charging piles, which restricts the sales of new energy vehicles. Third, the existing two auto city brand dealers have been saturated, and the new dealers want to enter the local market, and there is not enough space. At present, there are only two large electric vehicle dealers in the local market, BYD and Nezha, and the brand selection is not enough. ”
The reporter learned from the Vehicle Management Office of the Traffic Police Detachment of the Xiangxi Prefecture Public Security Bureau that from January to March this year, a total of 7489 new cars and 59 large cars were in the whole state, of which only 516 were new energy vehicles, 4 were large cars, and the rest were cars. In terms of data, fuel vehicle sales are still in the C position.
The answer to this question, in the end, is in the hands of every car owner. However, under the current epidemic situation, from the perspective of the long-term development of our state's economy, the installation of new energy vehicle public supporting facilities and the expansion of the new automobile market need to be put on the agenda in order to promote the development of the automotive industry in Xiangxi Prefecture and effectively boost the real economy affected by the epidemic.
