Peugeot 4008 Car use: Maintenance of 30,000 kilometers is a hurdle!
Peugeot 4008 Car use: Maintenance of 30,000 kilometers is a hurdle! When it comes to French cars, the first thing that comes to people's minds is the hurdle, such as "weird design", "car suspension", and "excellent driving control", which can be said to be mixed. However, even though it is very controversial, French cars still bring a lot of vitality to the Chinese automobile market. Especially when the joint venture compact SUV market has been firmly occupied by Japanese and Germans for a long time, I suddenly saw the unique Peugeot 4008 (parameters | inquiry | pictures), and I feel a little bit expectant. Of course, no matter how product strength is, for consumers, vehicle quality and vehicle cost are the core of buying a car, and both are indispensable. So the question is, what is the cost of using the Peugeot 4008? In response to these issues, we will conduct a survey on three aspects: insurance costs, maintenance costs and oil costs of Peugeot 4008.
Insurance Expense Survey
2021 Peugeot 4008 priced at 169,700 yuan. After our investigation, the "2021 360THP Strength Edition" priced at 183,700 yuan is very popular and has good sales. The main reason is that this model is a 1.6T mid-equipped model, with a relatively reasonable price and rich configuration. It has more practical and rich configurations than low-equipped cars, such as reverse radar, reverse image, panoramic sunroof, keyless entry/start, full LCD instrument, main driver's electric seats, automatic air conditioning, etc., while the price is only 14,000 yuan. Although high-end models have richer configurations and more technological configurations such as driving assistance systems, these are not very helpful for urban vehicles. In addition, although the 1.8T model has stronger power and higher configuration, it is also more expensive. The main reason is that when using an 8AT gearbox, the 1.8T is just a 1.6T cylinder expansion, which is not very attractive. So this time we will use the "2021 360THP Strength Edition" as the survey model.
According to the insurance costs investigated, after Peugeot 4008 purchased three major insurances of 1 million yuan, car damage insurance, and compulsory traffic insurance, the total premium for the first year is about 6,643 yuan. If it does not occur during the later use, the premium after Peugeot 4008 will be further reduced. We calculate based on the standard premium of 20% for the second year and 30% for the third year. The total premium for three years is about 16,607 yuan, and the average annual average is about 5,535 yuan.
Maintenance cost survey
Peugeot 4008 first warranty time is 7500km or 6 months (whichever comes first), and then regular maintenance is required every 7500km or 6 months, and the price is 429 yuan. The replacement cycle of the accessories of Peugeot 4008 is a bit special. The replacement cycle of air conditioning filter , air filter , antifreeze , brake fluid , fuel filter, etc., including spark plug , has a replacement cycle of 30,000km, and only transmission oil replacement cycle is 60,000km. In terms of accessories prices, the price of the spark plug of Peugeot 4008 is 540 yuan, the air conditioner filter is 75 yuan, the air filter is 98 yuan, and the antifreeze is 135 yuan.
We use the car usage cycle of a general family car driving 60,000km in three years. Calculate the three-year maintenance cost of Peugeot 4008, which costs about 7,064 yuan, and an average of about 2,354 yuan per year. Compared with some Japanese joint venture compact SUVs of the same level, the three-year maintenance price is about 2,000 yuan, but it is still much cheaper than German and American SUVs of the same price. In addition, the maintenance cycle of Peugeot 4008 is a bit special. In addition to the usual small maintenance, a large maintenance is required every 30,000km, which costs at least more than 2,000 yuan. Users need to pay attention to this point.
Fuel Fee Survey
Peugeot 4008's NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption is 6.2L. According to our survey, the actual fuel consumption of the vehicle is about 8.0L per 100 kilometers. We calculate the fuel cost of Peugeot 4008 based on No. 92 gasoline of 7.3 yuan per liter. The average monthly cost of 20,000km is 11,680 yuan, and the three-year 60,000km is 35,040 yuan, with an average of about 973 yuan per month. It can be seen that the petrol 4008 performs well in fuel costs, and one of the major reasons can be used to use the cheaper No. 92 gasoline. In addition, the power combination of 1.6T+8AT is also very economical, which can save a lot of money for car owners.
