Why is the preservation rate of second-hand electric vehicles so low that car dealers are scared?

Why is the preservation rate of electric vehicles so poor?

The thing is, my friend received a 3-year-old Tesla Model s three months ago, and the seller quoted 450,000 yuan, but the car and its options cost 165438+ 10,000. The two sides cut 420,000 transactions. This guy dumped an electric car for the first time and wanted to make a lot of money. As a result, he didn't expect to get it When the car arrived in his hand, not many people asked. After three months, this buddy can't take it anymore. 390,000 left the car to a car dealer who just entered the field. Plus the transfer fee, three-month maintenance fee and index money, it lost 40 thousand. You should know the profit of selling10.2 million used cars on this 40 thousand yuan.

So what is the reason for the low rate of preservation of electric vehicles? What are the precautions for friends who want to buy second-hand electric cars? Let me explain it to you from the aspects of cruising range, product stability, public acceptance and performance.

First of all, the most terrible problems of electric vehicles are cruising range and charging speed. Except for Tesla, the electric vehicles listed three years ago will be abused in any way. We should know that battery technology is developing rapidly at present, and the battery density is increasing at a rate of 7% every year. The cruising range of electric vehicles three years ago was generally in the early 200 kilometers, but now it can reach 300-400 kilometers, and the charging speed is reduced by half. Then why spend money on a second-hand electric car with outdated products and poor cruising range and charging speed?

Secondly, product stability. This may not be a problem on a fuel truck. After all, traditional fuel vehicles have been developed for more than 30 years, and all technologies are mature and reliable. Except for a few models, everything else can be reliable. After buying it, you can open it with confidence and only need a little preparation.

These electric vehicles on the market are only ten years long and only two or three years short, such as Zotye Zhi Dou, Chery and Beiqi New Energy. None of them have been verified by the market, and everyone doesn't know what its quality and reliability will be like in the next three to five years, so they dare not take over. What should I do if the battery of the motor is seriously attenuated after a long time, or if the battery is aging due to workmanship problems and causes spontaneous combustion? What if the battery explodes in a car accident? These security-related problems are the most deadly.

Besides, public acceptance, although the popularity of electric vehicles is high and consumers know that this is a trend, except for big cities, everyone does not need electric vehicles at all. You know, the price of an electric car is nearly 1 times more expensive than that of a fuel car, and you have to consider issues such as cruising range and daily charging. The most important thing is that it can't run long distances. You can't accept new cars, let alone used cars.

So in general, there are many sellers of second-hand electric vehicles and few buyers. This imbalance between supply and demand and vague market rules are the reasons for its rapid depreciation. However, for friends who have already considered buying second-hand trams, this is a big plus. Take the example of a friend of a used car dealer above. The price of 390,000 to buy a Tesla for three years is very suitable, and at this time, the battery and motor are not worn, and the performance is similar to that of a new car. However, the problem of selling cars in the future should be carefully considered.
