Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Li. Trams are becoming more and more popular, and new energy vehicles are now reducing prices, which directly leads to new energy vehicles being sold cheaper than oil cars, so many people are beginning to plan to sell oil cars and replace them with electric cars. However, many people do not know whether the tram is practical or not, and whether it can save fuel and money. Before changing the electric car, you must understand the following 3 questions, otherwise you will regret buying it.
- First, saving fuel does not save money
Now that I say that the tram saves fuel and does not save money, I believe that many people will come out to refute me, because I have several works some time ago that after the price of the tram is reduced, it has been able to save fuel and money. However, I believe that many friends do not see clearly what the premise of what I said is, if you want to save money by driving a tram, then the prerequisite is that you have to drive a certain mileage every year, and you must drive at least 10,000 kilometers per year, but many people's cars actually drive less than 5,000 kilometers per year. You are like my own car use this year, I myself this year basically go out is a two-wheeled battery car to travel, I have never driven a car, I can drive a year at best 3000 kilometers is already the peak, I will take 5000 kilometers a year to calculate with you whether the tram can save money.
Drive 5,000 kilometers a year, if you drive a fuel car, we will burn 7 cents per kilometer, 7 cents per kilometer of fuel consumption is already quite large, those so-called "oil tigers" are actually 8 cents to 1 yuan per kilometer, right? Burning 7 cents per kilometer of driving in the urban area, it will burn 3,500 yuan a year. But if you drive a tram, you have a home charging pile in the urban area, then your cost per kilometer will not exceed a dime, we will calculate according to your 5 cents per kilometer, this is enough conscience, right? 5 cents per kilometer a year, 5000 kilometers is 250 yuan. In this way, it is 5,000 kilometers a year, so the oil car costs 3,250 yuan more than the tram. If you drive it for 10 years, the cost of maintaining the train may be excessive.
The oil car will cost about 32,000 more than the tram after 10 years, but the battery of the tram should not work after 10 years, although some car companies have a lifetime warranty, but there are also many that are only guaranteed for 8 years, even if there is a lifetime warranty, there are a large number of people who may lose the warranty qualification in the process of using the car. The current tram has a range of hundreds of kilometers at every turn, and the battery is about 50 kWh, and if you change a 50-kWh battery in 10 years, at least 20,000 yuan is required, right?
If this comes, after 10 years, it will become a petrol car that costs about 12,000 more than the tram, and the tram has a value retention problem, and the tram after 10 years will sell more than 10,000 yuan less than the petrol car of the same year, which is normal, right?
But we are calculated according to the most ideal state, in fact, the depreciation rate of the tram will definitely be higher after driving for 10 years, and the oil car does not necessarily burn 7 cents per kilometer, and many oil cars 5 cents per kilometer It is enough, so this gap may turn around the oil car is cheaper than the tram.
- Second, the range of electric vehicles is low
Nowadays, you don't have to look at the tram that it has a range of 500 kilometers, 600 kilometers or even 800 kilometers at every turn, but in fact, when running at high speeds, the endurance achievement rate is relatively low. When running at high speed, the battery life achievement rate is relatively low, which means that the power consumption of running at high speed is greater, and the advantage of saving money to a certain extent is not obvious. For example, the nominal range of the tram with a 50-degree battery is about 500 kilometers, but we may only be able to use 450 kilometers in the city, and when running at high speeds, it will be discounted by 6, and it can only run 350 kilometers. However, the cost of charging in the service area is more than one kilometer, so we will pay 1.5 yuan per kilowatt-hour of electricity, and 75 yuan will be required to fully charge 50 kilowatt-hours of electricity. 75 yuan can only run 350 kilometers, which is equivalent to spending 2 cents per kilometer. And many Japanese cars burn about 5 cents when they run at high speeds, and people have no battery life anxiety, no charging troubles, and they can go if they want to.
- Thirdly, it is a fact that the insurance of a tram is more expensive than that of a petrol car
When many people hear that the insurance of the tram is more expensive than that of the petrol car, they think that others drive the tram to run the online car-hailing service, which makes the insurance expensive. But in fact, this is not the case, in the past two days, I specially consulted my colleagues who used to work in insurance companies, and they clearly told me that the insurance of trams is indeed a little more expensive than petrol cars, but it is not as outrageous as it is said on the Internet. Because if the rating of some trams on the insurance company's system is not good, then the premium of the car will not be refunded at a discount, or even go up.
My family wanted to buy a tram, so I accompanied him to see Toyota's bZ3, which cost more than 144,000 yuan. Toyota's sales were also happy to give us a budget to buy a car, and the price of the first year's insurance of this car was more than 7,000, and the insurance of more than 7,000 was only 140,000 yuan, which means that it is at least more than 1,000 yuan more expensive than ordinary oil cars, and this premium will be a little more expensive than oil cars every year. If you only drive 3,500 kilometers a year, you don't save much money on electricity compared to oil, and insurance is more expensive than 1,000, so the tram not only doesn't save you money, but it is even more expensive than a fuel car.
In short, if you want to sell the oil car and change the tram, you must see the three points I said above, and see that you think you have no problem, then you will not regret it if you go to change the tram, otherwise you will sell the oil car in a daze, and you will regret it after changing the tram you will find that you will change it back. And the current price of the tram is not stable, and now when you buy a tram, there may be a situation where the price will be reduced when you buy it, and the price will be stable if you buy it again for another year, and you will be able to buy a cheaper and better car at that time, and you will come back and thank me at that time.
