Although more and more users are starting to buy electric vehicles, there are still a considerable number of potential users who are worried about the range anxiety of electric vehicles after long-term use, and the sky-high cost of replacing batteries.

Although there were also electric vehicles on the market seven or eight years ago, the number of electric vehicles in this part is small and not very convincing. Recently, there is a news that quickly attracted the attention of users who want to buy electric vehicles, that is, Shanxi eliminated about 10,000 BYD E6s. Since these electric vehicles are operational vehicles, they must be retired after 8 years, and there are many of them, which helps to refer to whether the tram battery is worth buying in the future.

Many friends may feel very strange, why there are so many BYD electric vehicles in Taiyuan, Shanxi, and even the number of electric vehicles in Shenzhen is not so high? In fact, since 2016, BYD has invested in an electric vehicle production base in Taiyuan, so BYD Auto has developed new energy vehicles earlier than we imagined.

Since BYD has established an electric vehicle base in Taiyuan, it is the first in the local area to replace fuel taxis with BYD E6. Judging from the official website, the price of BYD E6 exceeded 300,000 yuan, taking the high-end route, but after deducting various policy subsidies, the driver only needs to spend 90,000 yuan to start.

According to an interview with a local taxi, the battery capacity of the BYD E6 was 80 kWh, and the average daily range was about 300-400km. Even at the end of the operation, the battery life did not take a big dive. Due to high-intensity use, many retired BYD E6s have traveled more than 1 million kilometers, which is beyond many people's expectations.

There are also reporters who interviewed these buddies, and they are more satisfied with BYD E6, mainly because the maintenance cost is cheaper, there is no oil filter, and the operating cost in the later stage is reduced.

The second is that many of these buddies used to drive Volkswagen Santana, which belongs to manual transmission models, and the left foot has to step on the clutch all the time, and they will feel very tired at the end of the day, and electric cars do not have this problem. In addition, electric vehicles are more powerful and accelerate faster, which reduces the time to destination, which in turn increases operational efficiency. And this BYD E6 has a rich configuration, unlike the previous fuel taxis, which are all "beggars among beggars".

What's more, because it is an electric vehicle, the sense of space and the flatness of the chassis are better than the original fuel vehicle, and customer satisfaction is naturally higher.

But these buddies have also found some problems, some of which have been overcome now, and some of which have not. For example, there were few charging piles back then, and charging was a troublesome thing. Of course, this situation basically no longer exists, and there are a large number of charging piles built by manufacturers, local power grids and third-party operators. In addition, they also found that electric vehicles are actually more abrasive to tires, mainly because of the heavier weight of the battery, which makes the weight of the whole vehicle heavier than that of fuel vehicles of the same level, and the degree of wear on tires is higher.

In fact, the electric vehicles produced around 2017 are far less equipped than they are now, and the batteries are now more technological. Therefore, for the vast majority of users, the attenuation of the battery is objective, but it is not as serious as imagined.
