A great choice for city commuting! Three 100,000-class compact cars are recommended, fuel-efficient, durable and easy to drive

The crowded subway/bus has made many salaried people firm in the idea of buying a car, and recently we received a letter from a fan asking us to recommend several fuel-efficient and durable cars to him at a price of about 100,000 so that he can drive to and from work later.

In line with the principle of "economy first", we have also roughly selected three relatively suitable models in this price market, which are:

The first one, BYD Qin PLUS DM-i Champion Edition 55KM Leading Model

Guidance price: 99,800 yuan

Fuel consumption: 3.8-4.5L/100km (feedback from riders, the same below)

The 2023 champion version of the Qin PLUS DM-i, which was launched not long ago, although it does not look much different from the 21 models, is cheaper and the configuration is richer. To sum it up, you can buy a low end in your early 100,000s. And the low-end model has upgraded the car machine DiLink 4.0 and added voice control function. At the same time, the dashboard is no longer an anti-human small screen design, replaced by 8 inches, and the rear exhaust air outlet has been added.

Therefore, from the perspective of practicality, low-end models are enough to meet the daily needs of the majority of salaried people. As for why you recommend Qin PLUS DM-i? First, the Qin PLUS DM-i has space comparable to A+ class cars. Second, there is no restriction on the green card, and it is also exempt from purchase tax. Third, the cost of the car is low, not only fuel consumption, but also maintenance.

It is understood that the maintenance cycle of Qin PLUS DM-i is 12 months or 7500km, and the small maintenance includes replacing the oil filter, checking the PCV valve and ventilation hose, which is about 300 yuan (feedback from riders), and the large maintenance cost is about 500.

Overall, the Qin PLUS DM-i Champion 55KM Leading Model not only has large space, low fuel consumption, but also rich configurations, which is indeed suitable as the first choice for family cars. But it should be noted that if you do not have a fixed parking space, it is still recommended to choose the 120KM endurance version.

The second model, Changan Yidong PLUS 1.4T Premium Edition

Guidance price: 93,900 yuan

Fuel consumption: 7L/100km

If you are skeptical about new energy and want to buy a fuel vehicle, then Changan Yidong PLUS in the compact car market can be considered. In terms of model configuration, we recommend the 1.4T Premium Edition, because this configuration is equipped with more frequently used configurations such as 360-degree panoramic image, cruise control, automatic parking, electric sunroof, keyless entry/start, and multimedia central control screen.

Moreover, the design of this car is also quite in line with the public's aesthetics, and young people are more windy when driving out. Of course, more importantly, the price of this car is more realistic, and after counting the terminal discount, the landing price is similar to the guide price. In addition, the wheelbase of 2.7 meters also gives the Escape PLUS a relatively spacious rear space. The power combination of 1.4T + 7DCT can burst out the maximum power of 160 horsepower, and the fuel consumption in urban areas as low as 7L/100km, the only fly in the ointment is that there is a small setback at low speeds, but the impact is not large.

As for the maintenance cost, according to the car friend, if it is only a small maintenance, and you choose ordinary engine oil, the one-time cost is about 300-400 yuan. In addition, we also learned that if you go to the "XX car maintenance shop" outside the 4S store, the cost will be lower. On the whole, the economy of Yidong PLUS is still quite high.

The third model, the Volkswagen Bora 1.5L 30th Anniversary Edition

Guide price: 135,300 yuan

Fuel consumption: 6.3L/100km

If you want to choose a joint venture sedan around 100,000, FAW-Volkswagen Bora's 1.5L model is a good choice. Today's recommendation of this 30th anniversary edition, although the guidance price has reached more than 130,000, but the terminal discount is very large, for example, a dealer in North China naked car quotation is only 93,200 yuan. Counting insurance and purchase tax, the landing price is only more than 100,000.

As for why you recommend this car? First, the influence of the Volkswagen brand, it is also easy to change cars later. Second, Bora's car has a long history in China and its quality is trustworthy. Third, the fuel consumption of this Bora is indeed not high, the fuel consumption in urban areas is as low as 6.3L/100km, according to our local oil price (7.85 yuan / L), a kilometer is only 5 Mao. Fourth, the space of this car is also relatively excellent, the structure setting of the short overhang long axle and the unique space optimization make its rear space not inferior to some 2-meter 7-wheelbase A-class cars.

As for maintenance, Bora's first insurance mileage is 5,000km, and then every 10,000km for maintenance, if it is 20,000 kilometers a year, it is to be maintained twice. Car friends feedback that the basic maintenance cost of Bora in the 4S store is 495 yuan, but if it is in a certain car, it is more than 300 yuan. Therefore, from an economic point of view, it is more cost-effective to go outside for maintenance after the first insurance.

Well, the above three cars are the compact cars we selected today, with relatively rich configurations, large space, low fuel consumption, and relatively cheap maintenance. And from the feedback of the majority of car fans, they are all easy to drive. So in our opinion, they are all models worth considering. As for which one is more suitable to start? It depends on which brand do you prefer? Or which model design do you prefer.
