BYD As an independent brand that started early in the field of new energy vehicles in China, pure electric vehicle products have been continuously updated. It is this positive approach that keeps BYD in the new energy market. In a leading position, the Song Pro EV pure electric model is representative. Launched in 2019, this product is a pure electric household SUV with a higher positioning. Although various indicators are somewhat different from the recently launched products, there are still few competitors in the pure electric SUV market two years ago. More importantly, Song Pro EV has a low vehicle cost that is unmatched by fuel vehicles. Although the guide price is somewhat high, with the continuous increase in service life and kilometers, cheap daily expenses can save car owners a lot of money. So the question is, how much does the Song Pro EV save compared to the Song Pro fuel version or other SUVs at the same price? In response to this problem, next, we will investigate its insurance costs, maintenance costs, and electricity costs.
Insurance cost survey
The 2019 Song Pro EV has two endurance versions of 405km and 502km respectively. According to our survey results, the "2019 EV high-power luxury version" sells best. The reason is that this model is a mid-range car in the 405km endurance version. Compared with the low-end model, it has more panoramic sunroof, wireless charging, power seat for the main driver, and larger aluminum alloy wheels. The price is only 1 expensive. Compared with high-end models, there are fewer technological configurations that are rarely used in cities, but the corresponding price is also 10,000 yuan cheaper. Compared with the top-equipped model of the 502km battery life version, the "2019 EV High Power Deluxe Edition" has lower power, battery life, and configuration data, but the price is 30,000 yuan cheaper, and the price difference is somewhat large. Therefore, we will use the "2019 EV high-power version luxury" as the survey model this time.
According to the survey results of insurance costs, the Song Pro EV vehicle tax price is 300 yuan,After purchasing three main types of insurance: 1 million triple liability, auto damage insurance, and compulsory traffic insurance, the total premium for the first year is about 6,650 yuan. If there is no accident during the later use, the insurance premium will be further reduced afterwards. We calculate it in a three-year cycle (calculated based on the standard premium 20% off in the second year and 30% off in the third year). Song Pro EV's three-year insurance cost The cost is about 16,625 yuan, and the average one-year premium is about 5542 yuan.
Maintenance cost survey
According to the maintenance manual, the first warranty of Song Pro EV needs to be carried out at 12000km or 6 months (whichever comes first). The item is the replacement of air conditioning filter element , as well as the electric system and chassis For inspections in other aspects, the regular inspection fee is 200 yuan. Thereafter, routine inspections are required every 12,000km or 6 months. Other items that need to be replaced regularly are: air-conditioning filters need to be replaced every 12000km, the price is 110 yuan, and the labor cost is 10 yuan; brake fluid needs to be replaced every 48000km, the price is 90 yuan, and the labor cost is 150 yuan; gearbox The oil needs to be replaced every 48000km, the price is 92 yuan, and the working hours costs 120 yuan; the antifreeze needs to be replaced every 48000km, the price is 369 yuan, and the working hours costs 120 yuan.
We use a general family car to drive 60,000km in three years as the car cycle, and calculate the maintenance cost for three years. The Song Pro EV costs about 2541 yuan, an average of about 847 yuan a year, and a small maintenance is 320 yuan. . It can be seen that the small maintenance price of Song Pro EV is average, and the inspection fee and other costs that need to be charged each time cause it to be almost the same as the maintenance price of fuel vehicles. However, the 12000km maintenance period is relatively long, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost. In addition, the replacement of pure electric vehicles is less, so the three-year maintenance cost is very cheap, which may be less than half of the same level of fuel vehicles.
Electricity Charge Survey
Song Pro EV as a pure electric SUV, the maximum battery life can reach 502km,According to our survey, the actual power consumption of users is about 15kWh per 100 kilometers. Taking the current household electricity about 0.56 yuan/kWh as an example, the electricity bill per 100 kilometers is about 8.4 yuan, and the electricity bill for 10,000 kilometers is 840 yuan. Continuing to calculate with the mileage of 20,000km per year, the electricity bill for one year is about 1680 yuan, and the electricity bill for 60,000km for three years is about 5,040 yuan, and the average monthly electricity bill is about 140 yuan. It can be seen that the electricity cost of the Song Pro EV is very cheap, and this price may be less than a fraction of the monthly fuel cost of the same-level fuel vehicle. Even if users do not use household charging piles and go to more expensive public charging piles to charge, it is believed that the electricity cost will hardly exceed 500 yuan per month, and the advantages are very obvious.
Conclusion:
We add up the above maintenance costs, insurance costs and electricity costs, and we can calculate the cost of Song Pro EV for a three-year driving of 60,000km, which is about 24,206 yuan, an average of about 8068 yuan a year, and about 672 per month Yuan, about 22.4 Yuan per day. On the whole, in addition to higher insurance costs, Song Pro EV is very cheap for maintenance and electricity. Compared with the Song Pro fuel version, the cost of the Song Pro EV for three years is more than 27,000 yuan cheaper, and the monthly cost is at least about 760 yuan cheaper. So in the end, combined with the price difference of more than 50,000 yuan between the two cars, the money spent on buying the Song Pro EV may be saved after six years or more than 100,000 kilometers.
