The "peak period" for car buying at the end of the year is coming soon. Is it worthwhile to buy a car during the Chinese New Year? What should you pay attention to?

This year is also an extraordinary year, and the end of the year has reached the end of the year. In previous years, there was always a period before the year, which would be the peak period for car buying, and even many people, because there were too many people getting license plates. You can only get a temporary license plate to celebrate the New Year first, and then apply for the license plate. Then the "peak period" of car buying at the end of the year will also begin. Is it cost-effective to buy a car during the Chinese New Year? What should I pay attention to?

1. Is it worthwhile to buy a car at the end of the year?

If you ask the sales at a 4S store about this question, they will definitely say that it is definitely cost-effective to buy a car at the end of the year. The most intensive time for our activities is at the end of the year, so we must take this opportunity to buy a car! In other words, we are rushing for performance at the end of the year, and the price is cheaper than before. Come and buy it! In fact, the truth is true. After the Chinese New Year, buying a car at the beginning of the year is the most cost-effective! At that time, it was the beginning of a new year. Everyone was hurrying up and doing the tasks of selling cars given by manufacturers. The price of cars was even thousands of yuan cheaper than a year ago.

So why do many people still buy a car even though they know that it will be expensive to buy a car years ago? The main reason is because of face issues. After working hard for a year, I came home empty-handed and was afraid of being laughed at by my relatives and friends. Buying a car is mainly for saving face. What I’m talking about is not a minority. A large number of people have this idea. Moreover, most cars bought at this time are loan cars. The commission for loan cars is high, and the salesperson would rather buy a car years ago. You don’t have to take a day off, and you have to be on duty all the time. It seems that people who bought cars years ago must be indispensable.

Second, what should you pay attention to when buying a car at the end of the year?

There are some cars in the garage that are a bit scratched and have minor problems. Many car owners are unwilling to choose them before the peak period. However, during the peak period, sometimes it becomes difficult to find a car. At this time, even if it is clear, I know that the car has some scratches, but when the 4S store provides maintenance and a fuel card, many car owners still accept it happily. Otherwise, you would not be able to drive the car years ago. Otherwise, even if you choose this car, A car with a little blemish. I believe most car owners will still choose the latter.

The situation I mentioned is still good. There will also be some 4S shop staff who deliberately sell cars with scratches to car owners without telling the car owners. If they find out, they will give you maintenance and give you gas cards. , if you can’t find it, they won’t give the car owner a reminder. So when you buy a car, you must carefully check the appearance of the car to see if there are any scratches. Don’t wait until you have already paid for the rice and find something wrong. When negotiating with the sales staff, things become more troublesome!

Three, what car should I buy at the end of the year?

In fact, it is not difficult to see that recent policies support "new energy vehicles", especially at the end of the year, there are no number restrictions and no purchase tax. Many people will buy "new energy vehicles", and "new energy vehicles" are also doing very well in pure urban transportation.

For example, if you originally wanted to buy a cheap mobility scooter, it might be a POLO or a Fit, both because they are cost-effective and have a high value retention rate. Now in addition to fuel vehicles, there are new options for this option. A "new energy vehicle" worth 30,000 yuan is placed in front of you. You don't have to pay car purchase tax, and you will be given subsidies for purchasing new energy. You dare to say Not excited? I was moved. Some "new energy vehicles" can be fully charged in 40 minutes with quick charging and can run 500 kilometers, which saves money and saves face when driving home. Of course, I am not absolutely saying that you must buy "new energy vehicles" by the end of the year, but the trend of buying "new energy vehicles" by the end of the year should become even greater.

"New energy vehicles" are mainly expressed in two directions: one is urban mobility, and the other is focused on endurance driving. Urban mobility is easier to understand. It is only suitable for commuting to and from get off work. It is suitable for driving in the city. Just have some fun. The other one is not very perfect in terms of battery life, which leads to many problems that need to be solved. We look forward to the slow development of "new energy vehicles".
