With a budget of more than 300,000 yuan, it is planned to buy a luxury brand of medium-sized cars, that BBA's Mercedes-Benz C-Class, BMW 3 Series and Audi A4 must be unavoidable models. Among them, after the upgrade of the Mercedes-Benz C-class last year, it has made no small adjustment in appearance and interior, which is closer to the style of the S-class. However, the sales performance is not satisfactory, much behind the BMW 3 Series, which makes the Mercedes-Benz C-Class have a good discount, which is undoubtedly good news for consumers. So, let's take a look at the market terminal of mercedes-Benz C-class today and analyze whether it is a suitable time to buy a car now.
340,000 can buy 1.5T high merit, quasi-household discount is greater?
After visiting a Mercedes-Benz 4S store in Beijing, we learned that the Mercedes-Benz C-class in this store sold a total of 15 cars, accounting for nearly 20% of the total sales of 78 units in the store. One of the best-selling is the "2022 Revamped C 260 L Sport Edition" priced at 349,400 yuan, and white and black are the best-selling colors. This car belongs to the sub-low model of the whole series, but the 1.5T high-power engine is 34 horsepower higher than the entry-level version, and the acceleration performance of 7.7 seconds per 100 kilometers seems to be worth spending tens of thousands of yuan more.
In addition, in terms of configuration, this car also has more practical functions such as built-in driving recorders, segmented electric sunroofs and satellite navigation, in addition, the subsequent optional configuration is also more abundant, and the overall cost performance is not bad. It is worth mentioning that the current situation of mercedes-Benz C-class cars has been greatly improved compared with previous months, and high and low power models have a lot of existing car options.
Mercedes-Benz C-class at this stage to give the discount are not bad, but also to help the current potential customers to strive for a greater range of preference, if installments can also be exempted from financial fees, the specific preferential situation is as follows:
First, buy a car in full
If you buy Mercedes-Benz C-class in full, the whole series can have a cash discount of 48,000 yuan, taking the hot-selling "2022 model remodeled C 260 L Sport" as an example, on the basis of the guidance price of 349,400 yuan, and then counting the hard car purchase costs, including purchase tax (about 25,590 yuan), insurance costs (about 11,000 yuan) and license fees (about 3,000 yuan), then it will take about 340,990 yuan to get the Mercedes-Benz C-class in full.
Second, installment / replacement car purchase
If you buy in installments, you can avoid financial fees, and the cash discount of 50,000 yuan will be greater, but the installment needs to charge an annualized interest of 3%. If you choose a down payment of 30%, divided into 24 installments, then after counting the various hard car purchase costs, the down payment for the purchase of Mercedes-Benz C-class cars in installments is about 129410 yuan, the interest for two years is 12575 yuan, and the monthly car that needs to be repaid is about 8733 yuan. In addition, if you buy a Mercedes-Benz C-class, you can also enjoy a replacement subsidy of 3,000 yuan.
Details can be found in the following table:
We learned from the mouth of the sales staff that the Mercedes-Benz C-class car buyers are mainly distributed among young people, and they will pay more attention to the preferential part, after all, it is the first time to buy a car, and they all hope to win it at the lowest price. The reason why they are interested in mercedes-benz C-class, in addition to Mercedes-Benz's own brand appeal, is also very satisfied with the appearance of Mercedes-Benz C-class itself, as well as the interior design of quite a high sense of technology, which is more in line with the sense of futurism and sporty effects pursued by young consumers.
In order to catch up with the 2.0T BMW, Mercedes-Benz gives 2 times the discount and the current car?
As for the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and BMW 3 Series, how to choose? From the perspective of the terminal situation of the two car markets, the preferential margin of the Mercedes-Benz C-class can reach more than twice that of the BMW 3 Series, and the BMW 3 Series car still needs to wait for more than a month, so it seems that the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is more dominant in this regard. In addition, the Mercedes-Benz C-class in the creation of luxury performance, basically can be said to be invincible to the BBA, whether it is the visual level, or the actual experience, it gives the cross-level enjoyment is unique in all models.
The BMW 3 Series inherits the consistent sports gene of BMW cars, its highest 258 horsepower 2.0T engine, zero hundred acceleration can be guaranteed in 6.2 seconds, even if the Performance of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is full, the driving and handling feeling may not be as good as the BMW 3 Series.
Then there are some uses after buying two cars.
Mercedes-Benz C-class each maintenance cycle is 10,000 kilometers a time, the cost of small maintenance is about 933 yuan, to three years to drive 60,000 kilometers as a car cycle calculation, the Mercedes-Benz C-class three-year maintenance cost is about 14697 yuan, the average annual maintenance cost of about 4899 yuan.
The maintenance cycle of the BMW 3 Series is 10,000 kilometers at a time, and there is no free maintenance. The price of small maintenance is 1128 yuan, the maintenance cost of three years is about 12087 yuan, and the average one-year maintenance cost is about 4029 yuan. It can be seen that although the maintenance intervals are the same, the maintenance cost of the Mercedes-Benz C-class is much higher than that of the BMW 3 Series.
Next is the salvage performance of the second-hand car of the two cars.
As a luxury brand car, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and BMW 3 Series are relatively value-preserving models. We learned from a mainstream second-hand car platform that the Mercedes-Benz C-class "2020 C 260 L Sport Edition", the landing price at that time was about 340,000 yuan, and after buying a car for more than 29,000 kilometers, the current residual value of the second-hand car is 308,800 yuan.
BMW 3 Series "2020 320Li M Sports Suit", the landing price is about 310,000 yuan, less than 2 years after the purchase of the car, after driving 44,000 kilometers, the current second-hand car residual value is 270,000 yuan. Considering the driving mileage, the purchase period and other factors, the retention rate of the two cars is basically at the same level.
Write at the end
After the Upgrade of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class this year, it still maintains the leading luxury of the same level, and is closer to the S-Class in the design of the exterior interior. During this time Mercedes-Benz C-class gives a relatively large discount, the full purchase of a car is basically more than 340,000 can get 1.5T high-power entry version, although the installment to charge a part of the interest, but the preferential range given is greater than the full amount, but also free of financial fees, less than 130,000 yuan can be bought, but the pressure of repayment in the later stage may be a little large, each month has to pay back nearly 9,000 yuan, in addition, the store's cash inventory is also relatively sufficient. However, it is worth mentioning that for current potential customers, it is also possible to apply for a larger preferential margin. If you are hesitant because of factors such as discounts, prices and existing cars, you can take advantage of the fact that you can buy a Mercedes-Benz C-Class now.
