On the Internet, there are endless remarks about the big guys of new energy vehicle companies shelling fuel vehicles, before there are "listen to a ring", "smell a gasoline", and then "spend 400,000 to buy a 2.0T engine is a bit sad". As a staunch "fuel car advocate", as long as there is a fuel car at the right price, I will definitely give priority to fuel vehicles. In the upcoming end of April, there are many models listed in the price range of less than 200,000, and the performance of power parameters is very eye-catching.
