A new energy car that cost more than 100,000 yuan when purchased is only worth tens of thousands of yuan after one year of driving. Will anyone still buy it?

The current situation of low value retention rate of new energy second-hand cars: No one wants 35,000 yuan after buying it for 140,000 yuan two years ago

A few days ago, according to the latest report, the mainstream new energy vehicles in the past three years have The average value retention rate of energy vehicles is only 32.31%, which is much lower than that of traditional fuel vehicles. Judging from the one-year value retention rate of pure electric vehicles, except for Tesla, which exceeds 60%, the value retention rates of other models are generally low. This data has caused concern among some new energy car owners: A new energy car that costs more than 100,000 yuan when purchased is only worth tens of thousands of yuan after one year of driving?

Mr. Sun, a new energy second-hand car dealer in Beijing, said that after a year of use, most of the new energy vehicles have only 1/ The residual value of 3 is equivalent to that of a new energy vehicle originally purchased for hundreds of thousands of yuan, which can only be sold for tens of thousands of yuan when resold.

Many second-hand new energy vehicle dealers said that due to the low value retention rate, the business of new energy second-hand vehicles is difficult to do. One of the dealers still has a backlog of a 2017 JAC iEV6E that was recycled three months ago. The original price of the car, including tax, was close to 140,000 yuan, but now the price is only 35,000 yuan, and no one wants it. .

In addition to the offline trading market, it has also been found on some online used car trading platforms that low-priced sales of new energy used cars have become a common phenomenon. Some old models from three years ago are even sold for far less than 1/3 of the original price. So, what exactly is the reason for such a low value retention rate of new energy used cars?

Some experts said that the reason for this phenomenon was first of all because of the short cruising range of early electric vehicles, and after the battery aged, it could not even meet the needs of daily driving. need. In addition, the after-sales maintenance services for new energy vehicles are not comprehensive and the complaint rate is high. Some manufacturers' vehicles no longer enjoy the original factory warranty once they pass the ownership. Many people in the industry have also reported that compared with fuel vehicles, new energy used cars lack a complete evaluation system, which is indispensable in the second-hand car pricing process. Others said that due to the rapid replacement of new energy vehicles, few car owners are willing to accept second-hand cars with greatly different performance.

In addition, the reporter consulted a 4S store about a domestic new energy vehicle with an original price of 140,000 yuan, a two-year purchase and a cruising range of 200 kilometers. The staff said that the replacement price was about 30,000 yuan. However, an additional subsidy of 5,000 yuan can be provided. It is understood that many 4S stores provide subsidies ranging from a few thousand yuan to 10,000 yuan for replacement services, and support cross-brand car replacement.

Many people are optimistic about the future of the new energy used car market. Industry insiders said that with the gradual stabilization of the quality of new energy vehicles, the gradual entry of new energy vehicles with a cruising range of more than 250 into the second-hand car market, and the increasingly improved supporting facilities such as charging piles, with the efforts of all parties, the value retention rate of new energy second-hand vehicles has increased. The problem will slowly improve.
