Many people will hear this advice when buying a car: “To buy a car, prepare a “reserve fund” that is almost equal to the purchase price of the car as the cost of using the car.”
Although this sentence may not be completely accurate, it is basically true in the era of fuel vehicles, and a large part of this is the cost of refueling; especially in today’s high oil prices, this part of the cost is more prominent.
To make a simple calculation, the annual driving mileage of most family cars is about 2w kilometers. The average fuel-efficient fuel vehicle is about 6 liters per 100 kilometers, and the average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 10 liters. Here, it is based on 8 liters/100 kilometers. Kilometer calculation; according to the current situation of No. 92 oil 8.7 yuan/liter, No. 95 oil 9.3 yuan/liter, and No. 98 oil 10 yuan/liter, the annual refueling cost is about 1.5w.
Taking Tesla Model Y as an example, Tesla Model Y rear-wheel drive version as an example, a full charge can actually travel 300-400 kilometers, and the energy consumption is about 6-8km/kwh. About 7.3kwh electricity is used for a kilometer; if it is charged at home (about 0.5 yuan), it is about 744.6 yuan a year, and if it is charged according to a third party or overcharged (about 1.8 yuan), it is about 2680 yuan a year.
Only charging one item can save about 1.2w-1.4w per year.
Of course, in addition to the cost of energy supplementation in the car, since electric vehicles require very little maintenance, except for glass water and air-conditioning filter elements, the brake oil is tested once every 4w kilometers, and there is almost no place for maintenance; this part is compared to fuel vehicles. , can save 2000-5000 yuan every year.
Another “cost” that many people are more concerned about is the second-hand value preservation rate, which is a very real problem. However, compared to the past market conditions, the level of preservation of electric vehicles is now significantly improved.
On the one hand, it is due to the fact that many electric vehicles currently have a high level of intelligence, OTA air upgrades, assisted driving, and many intelligent functions, which have brought real functional “value enhancement”. On the other hand, with the continuous acceptance of high-quality electric vehicles, their market recognition and ownership have increased, and the second-hand market price (value retention rate) of many electric vehicles is better than that of fuel vehicles, such as Tesla Model 3 and Model Y. The retention rate has exceeded most of the fuel vehicles of 200,000-300,000.
Of course, although the cost of using a car is very practical, and it is indeed related to the experience of each car owner, buying and using a car is not only about the cost, but also the scene and environment of the car.
To put it simply, it is the proportion of the car that can be occupied by long-distance driving. If the proportion is large, and both involve timeliness, then obviously the oil car or the hybrid car is still the best choice. In another case, if you live in a particularly remote area, there are no public charging piles within a few hundred kilometers around, and the household charging piles cannot meet your daily needs. Similarly, oil vehicles or hybrid vehicles are the main options.
For most people, if they live in a city or in a remote area, the usual car is basically commuting to get off work and short-distance self-driving trips, and the total mileage per week is about 300-500 kilometers. Generally speaking, an electric vehicle can travel 300-400 kilometers when fully charged. It is not only convenient but also very economical to charge 1-2 times a week to fully satisfy the travel of a week.
To sum up, due to the well-established infrastructure of fuel vehicles and their deeply rooted car habits, it is still suitable for some people; but for most people, with the continuous improvement of infrastructure and technological innovation of electric vehicles, the inconvenience gradually disappears. The advantages of economical convenience are becoming more and more prominent, and they are constantly gaining the trust and favor of more consumers.
In fact, in the final analysis, the cost should not be the only or the most important reason for choosing a fuel vehicle or an electric vehicle; it is the most important thing that consumers really like this product and can bring about a tangible experience improvement. of.
