The rise of new energy vehicles has been touted to have many advantages, but now that new energy vehicles account for more than 30% of the auto market, it seems that the direction of the wind has begun to change, especially when buses abandon new energy sources and replace them with fuel vehicles, and the recent large increase in charging piles After the price increase, many new energy vehicle owners regret it.
Baoding Public Transport decided to abandon new energy vehicles and switch back to fuel vehicles because the battery replacement cost of new energy vehicles is too high for the bus company to bear. Finally, Baoding Public Transport decided to replace the expired new energy vehicles with fuel vehicles. The new energy vehicle market will have a huge impact.
In fact, previous owners of new energy vehicles have encountered similar problems. Owners who bought new energy vehicles in the early days are now time to replace their vehicles. It has been reported that some new energy vehicles cost more than 100,000 yuan and the price of battery replacement reaches 80,000 yuan. This price is not as good as buying a new car directly.
This part of car owners encountered another problem when they planned to buy a new car, that is, the new energy vehicles in their hands were not worth selling to second-hand car dealers. For example, Lingpai 1.8 can still sell for about 70,000 yuan after being used for seven years. The original purchase price was about 140,000 yuan. This undoubtedly caused huge losses to new energy vehicle owners. Loss.
These car owners lamented that after buying new energy vehicles for 5-6 years, they waited until they planned to replace the battery or buy a new car, only to find that the remaining gas money was not enough to replace the battery, and the extremely low residual value of the vehicle made these car owners regret beyond reach.
However, the above-mentioned things may not be regrettable for new energy vehicle owners. Recently, the price of charging piles in some cities has risen sharply, and it is even reported that the charging price has soared to 2 yuan per kilowatt-hour. As a result, the energy cost of new energy vehicles is close to that of fuel vehicles. In this way, even the last benefit of new energy vehicles is gone, and new energy vehicles really do not save money.
In fact, the so-called money saving of new energy vehicles has been greatly discounted after the insurance premiums have risen sharply. Due to the high accident rate and high maintenance costs of new energy vehicles, this part of the business of the insurance company has been losing money. The cost has greatly increased the insurance premiums of new energy vehicles. The owner of a foreign brand car interviewed by the media said that the increase in insurance premiums basically equaled the usual savings in energy costs.
The troubles for owners of new energy vehicles are far more than these. The spontaneous combustion rate of new energy vehicles is high and unpredictable. Spontaneous combustion of new energy vehicles may occur in new cars, old cars, parking, driving, and charging, and it is completely unpredictable. Moreover, the fires of new energy vehicles are difficult to extinguish, causing some car owners in parking lots to be unwilling to park with new energy vehicles when parking.
The battery life of new energy vehicles is poor, and the nominal battery life of car companies is often discounted. In summer, due to the air conditioner, the battery life may be reduced by half. Queuing for charging for several hours at every turn has become an annoyance for such car owners.
These various problems of new energy vehicles, with Baoding bus returning to fuel vehicles, and the recent sharp rise in charging prices have made these car owners anxious. It can be said that many benefits of new energy vehicles have been torn off step by step. There are not many, but there are more and more troubles, so when you plan to buy a car, will you still consider new energy vehicles?
