Don't go into the pit before buying, these 7 things you don't know about new energy, the old driver tells you

author:Bunny view of the car

At present, there are roughly two types of new energy vehicle owners, one is the type of "you can't go back if you have driven a new energy vehicle", and the other is "it is better to know that it is better to buy a fuel car". We often see these two kinds of remarks on the Internet, and in the final analysis, we don't consider our actual situation before choosing new energy vehicles - we don't realize the advantages of electric cars, but there are many bad things. Although the new energy vehicle is good, but the water inside is also very deep, today Tutu will give you an inventory of 7 things that must be understood before starting a new energy vehicle, fully understand clearly, it is definitely helpful for you to buy a car.

First of all, new energy vehicles are just a co-ordination name, which is divided into many kinds, for example, the electric vehicles promoted by major manufacturers are divided into pure electric models, plug-in hybrids, gasoline-electric hybrids, and there are range extenders, so there are many kinds of new energy vehicles, and the corresponding new energy models should be selected according to their own car needs.

So what is the minimum threshold for buying new energy vehicles? This does not mean that there is 0 down payment or no interest on buying a car, but there must be conditions for installing home charging piles, which is the lowest threshold standard before considering the purchase of new energy vehicles. If there is no condition for installing a home charging pile, in this case to buy a tram, the cost of using the car will be much higher than others, although the popularity of the charging pile has been relatively high, but not to mention that the electricity fee is more expensive than charging at home, and some places have parking fees and service fees, and the cost of charging time outside is also a problem, in this case, the later use of the car will become very troublesome.

The second is that the battery life of new energy vehicles is really very serious? To put it bluntly, this problem is actually the same as the fuel consumption of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the previous fuel vehicle, for example, the fuel consumption of a certain model of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is 5 liters, and the actual car may reach 7 liters or even more, and now new energy vehicles for example, for example, the full power state claims to have a cruising range of 500 kilometers, but in reality, at least about 20% of the false standard, which is only a conservative estimate.

In addition, the battery life of new energy vehicles is affected by the environment, which is still relatively large at present, such as high-speed driving, temperature changes, including the use of on-board air conditioning, etc., will affect the battery life of the vehicle, and even sometimes can directly hit a 60% discount, and even in winter in some of the more cold areas in the north, a discount is not a problem. Therefore, if you want to buy a new energy vehicle that can meet the needs of daily travel, at least the cruising range should not be too low.

In addition, there is another point that everyone is more worried about, that is, the battery of new energy vehicles must be replaced after a few years? In fact, we don't need to worry too much about this, because the state has relevant regulations on the battery of new energy vehicles, and the performance attenuation of the battery during the warranty period shall not exceed 20%, otherwise you can apply to the manufacturer for free replacement of the vehicle battery, which can be queried in the national standard GB/T 31484-2015. And how long is this warranty? The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stipulates that 8 years/120,000 kilometers (whichever comes first). This is the bottom line of power battery attenuation, and now many manufacturers give 8 years of 160,000 kilometers or even 10 years of 200,000 kilometers of warranty, so you don't need to worry too much about the problem of battery capacity attenuation.

Also, for new energy vehicles, do you need to consider the value retention rate when purchasing? There are many people who are saying that buying a car does not necessarily have to consider the value retention rate, I plan to drive a car for a lifetime, although this statement has some leverage, but for new energy vehicles, the value retention rate must be considered. Why? Because the value retention rate of new energy vehicles is too low, and the electronic configuration of new energy vehicles is relatively large, so we have to consider the value retention rate, because more electronic configuration means that the elimination speed is fast.

For example, if you want to buy a new energy vehicle this year, it is possible that two years later or three years later, the configuration on your car has been eliminated, at this time if you want to change the car, do not consider the value retention rate, spend 300,000 to buy a car, may not even be sold for 150,000, in this case you will be very "painful". A fuel car, the three-year value retention rate may still be 780%, and for a tram, the three-year value retention rate may only be 50%.

Another point is that everyone has often heard in recent years, "Are new energy vehicles really fuel-efficient and not money-saving?" This is indeed true, at least in the current market conditions, that is, to save fuel and not to save money. First, it costs more to buy a car; Second, the value retention rate is still low, and you have to lose a lot of money when you sell a car; Third, the insurance of new energy vehicles is more than the expenditure of fuel vehicles. Just these points, it is impossible to save money on new energy vehicles, so it is possible that charging is indeed cheaper than refueling, but the overall process of using the car is not necessarily more expensive than oil vehicles, and even more expensive than oil vehicles.

There is also the half-hour fast charging that many car companies are promoting now, just to solve everyone's anxiety about the mileage, including the problem of slow charging, so is the advertised half-hour charging of 80% reliable? It should be said that at present, as long as it is not too cheap models, there is basically fast charging, and the fast charging advertised by the manufacturer does not mean that it is directly charged from the state of loss to 80%, but from 30% to 80%, because the charging speed in this range is the fastest, but if you want to charge from 80% to 100%, it will take at least more than an hour. So there is indeed such a thing as fast charging, but everyone should not be too optimistic.

The last question, if you are considering buying a hybrid model, one thing you need to consider is the fuel consumption and driving state of the loss of electricity, many friends feel that there is range anxiety when buying a pure electric model, so buying a plug-in hybrid model will not have the problem of range anxiety, after all, you can still use oil when you run out of power. It is true that oil can be used, but the fuel consumption in the state of power loss may be ridiculously high, so if there is really such a demand, you may wish to consider models such as BYD's super hybrid DMI and DMP, at least to ensure that the fuel consumption in the state of power loss is within an acceptable range.

If you insist on reading this far, I believe that some consumers have already given up the idea of buying a tram, but I also believe that there will still be many consumers who will join the big family of new energy vehicle owners sooner or later with time. But having said that, whether it is a new energy vehicle or a fuel vehicle, buying a car that you like and will not regret is the last word.
