Affected by some global force majeure factors, the price of raw materials in the automotive industry has risen, which in turn has promoted the "price increase tide" of automotive products. As consumers, we can only choose to accept the status quo, trying to eliminate the price increase through the bargaining stage, and the editor can only wish you good luck here. Back to the main text of the book, the Lynk & Co brand also announced the price increase news recently, and the price of all its PHEV models was raised, ranging from 2000-4000 yuan.
Price adjustment models include Lynk & Co 01 PHEV, Lynk & Co 05 PHEV, Lynk & Co 06 PHEV and Lynk & Co 09 PHEV, the editor has compiled a table, you can take a look at a specific model, its specific increase is how much:
This price increase many netizens expressed puzzlement, to know that the sales performance of Lynk & Co PHEV models is not outstanding, the main hot model is Lynk & Co 09 PHEV, as a flagship product of Lynk & Co, its MONTHLYC model sales can exceed 1,000 units; Lynk & Co 06 PHEV and Lynk & Co 01 PHEV, these two are basically only about 300 or 400 units per month, while the monthly sales of Lynk & Co 03 PHEV and Lynk & Co 02 PHEV are hovering in double digits. In other words, the consumer group that buys Lynk & Co products does not seem to be particularly interested in its PHEV model.
It is precisely because of this that the whole series of Lynk & Co PHEV has the need to increase the price. It cannot amortize production costs through huge sales volumes, so it can only adopt a way to go with the flow and transfer the cost increase to consumers. After all, users who choose to buy Lynk & Co PHEV products will not give up buying because of the price increase of 2000-4000 yuan. The reverse is also the same, consumers who look down on Lynk & Co PHEV will not choose PHEV models because they are cheaper than 2000-4000 yuan. Therefore, this time the price increase has almost no impact on sales.
So for consumers, is now the right time to start? (Whether you choose Lynk & Co PHEV or not)
It should be known that the factors that rise in the price of new energy this time are caused by the rise in the prices of raw materials such as nickel and lithium. But in fact, these two materials are essentially "not in short supply", but there are difficulties in supply. That said, it is not very realistic that nickel and lithium will remain high for a long time, and as long as the supply can keep up, the price will soon fall. So from this point of view, holding coins for purchase has become a plan to go in and out. Of course, this advice is only for friends who have not used a car for a short time.
On the other hand, I believe that friends who are willing to spend 200,000 or 300,000 yuan to buy PHEV models will not care much about the price adjustment of 2,000-4,000 yuan. Moreover, when bargaining, it takes a little effort to eliminate this price increase, especially for models such as the Lynk & Co 09 PHEV.
