In recent years, new energy vehicles have attracted the eyes of many consumers. In order to promote the development of new energy vehicles, in April this year, the four ministries and commissions jointly announced that the subsidies for new energy vehicles will continue until 2022. This is good news for new energy car companies and consumers. On May 27, the “Notice on Several Measures to Promote Market Consumption and Active Response to the Impact of the New Crown Pneumonia Epidemic” issued by our province pointed out that increasing the replacement of new energy buses and the purchase of the first new energy vehicle for households by car-free families can be granted Appropriate support. In recent years, consumers' attitudes and concepts towards new energy vehicles have changed a lot. With multiple benefits, what exactly is the new energy vehicle market? How do car owners view new energy vehicles? The reporter conducted a special interview on this.

Young consumers favor new energy vehicles

On September 2, when the reporter interviewed Liu Guoli, general manager of Shaanxi Mendi Automobile Sales and Service Company, he told reporters, “A few years ago, there might not be many new energy vehicles sold in a month. Now the sales are in good condition. Young consumers are more willing Choose pure electric vehicles as urban transportation tools."

Liu Guoli said, “At present, from the perspective of BYD’s sales, pure electric models are more popular, and overall sales are on the rise. Some middle-aged customers mostly choose hybrid models. The different models of pure electric vehicles currently launched have a range of Between 550-600 kilometers."

Yang Fan, General Manager of Shaanxi Zhongcheng 4S Store, said: “Compared with BYD whose audience is individual consumers, the main audience of BAIC New Energy Vehicles is the major customer groups in the industry. During the period when the BAIC brand entered Shaanxi, the sales volume has gradually increased, mainly for Online car-hailing operating platforms and taxi companies are sold in the form of group buying. At present, the prices of the 7 mainstream BAIC New Energy models on sale range from 60,000 to 180,000 yuan, and the actual cruising range ranges from 300 kilometers to 450 kilometers. Wait.

Yang Fan said: "Most individual consumers will choose models priced from 60,000 to 130,000 yuan. At present, their stores can enjoy the lifetime warranty policy of all models for consumers who purchase for the first time."

With the country’s support for the development of new energy vehicles, major brand automobile manufacturers have launched new energy vehicles. Nowadays, BMW, Volkswagen, Buick, Volvo and higher-priced new energy vehicles are also everywhere. And consumers' acceptance of new energy vehicles is getting higher and higher.

New energy vehicles have obvious advantages in transportation.

When the reporter visited, he saw that the new energy vehicle sales market was relatively stable and showed a gradual heating trend.

On September 2, when the reporter was interviewing in Qujiang, Mr. Pang, who was checking the charging status of the vehicle by the fast charging pile, told the reporter: "My car was picked up in 2017. At that time, the original price of this car was 130,000 yuan, which was partly subsidized. , The actual purchase is less than 90,000 yuan. After more than three years of driving, there are two major advantages over fuel vehicles: first, the start speed is fast, and second, the use cost is low.

During the interview, Mr. Wei, an online car-hailing driver driving a new energy vehicle, calculated an economic account for the reporter: “Take an online car-hailing driver as an example. If you run full-time every month, a petrol car needs at least 4,000 yuan in fuel. The electricity bill for new energy vehicles is less than 2,000 yuan, and only the gas fee can save about 2,000 yuan."

He said that the use cost of fuel vehicles is about 0.7 yuan per kilometer, and new energy vehicles are less than 0.3 yuan per kilometer; when the order is peaking, the profit margin of fuel vehicles is smaller. The use of pure electric vehicles for online car-hailing is more cost-effective and profitable than fuel vehicles, which has obvious advantages.

Charging is difficult to become a development obstacle

In the interview, some citizens bluntly said that the biggest shortcoming of new energy vehicles is the inconvenience of charging. "There are few charging piles, and most communities do not allow owners to install charging piles by themselves. Therefore, they can only charge up to the currently configured charging piles. Generally, you need to wait in line for charging at noon and afternoon.

Many consumers also expressed their feelings, “Charging is more expensive during the day and cheaper at night. The number of charging piles during peak periods is limited. If they can be distributed to various communities, the use of idle space to install charging piles will not only facilitate car owners to charge, but also further cut costs."

Mr. Yuan, who lives in Chanba, told reporters that charging piles can be said to be the biggest obstacle to the development of electric vehicles. Compared with the price and appearance of vehicles, consumers are more concerned about the convenience of charging.

"When selling cars, 4S stores will give away charging piles. But whether the customer has private parking spaces and whether the community property allows installation, these are all questions." Mr. Yuan said, due to problems such as private parking spaces and voltage load in old communities, charging piles cannot Reach every household, which to a certain extent discourages potential buyers of new energy vehicles.

"The difficulty of charging needs to be solved urgently. I hope that government departments can improve the supporting service facilities and management regulations of new energy vehicles as soon as possible, relieve consumers of worries, and allow new energy vehicles to achieve rapid development." Mr. Yuan said.
