Once upon a time, Apple’s mobile phones were a high-consumption marker. Buying an iPhone a few years ago would make young people’s kidneys a little bit painful; now young people will not worry about their kidneys, but will be heart-conscious and bear it. Can't help but reach out to explore the more expensive landmark-the car. You must know that cars are the most expensive consumer goods in people's daily life except for houses. Its price is far from mobile phones. This has also caused many people to change their cars within a few years to identify their high-end identity.
In today's society, very few people will always drive only one car, usually after a few years of driving will choose to change. According to a research report by J.D. Power, private cars in China are now frequently upgraded. 43% of car buyers have used the previous car for less than 3 years, and 14% of buyers have used the previous car for only 1 year. In the United States, where the automobile market is more developed, according to a research report by the market research organization IHS, the average Americans now hold a new car for 79.3 months, which is about 6 years and 7 months to change cars.
However, with the development of the automobile market, consumers will start to extend the use time of some new cars before considering selling, which also shows the reliability of these models from another aspect higher. A few days ago, there is a research report that counts several SUVs that American cars have hosted for a long time. Are these models suitable for our domestic use?
Toyota Sequoia
Average holding time: 9.9 years
Toyota Sequoia, which is called Toyota Sequoia in China. However, this SUV is considered a rare type in China, so it is still very fresh for domestic consumers. If this SUV does not bear the Toyota logo, it is hard to believe that it is a Japanese car. The sturdy figure is a typical American design style. This shape is what Americans like.
In terms of power, Sequoia is equipped with a V8 all-aluminum engine with a displacement of 5.7L. It is also the Americans who have always had a strong V8 complex and equipped with a low-speed traction mode. 6-speed automatic transmission. But what needs attention is the huge weight of Sequoia and the amazing fuel consumption brought by the V8 engine. Of course, for buyers who are capable of buying top-tier full-size SUVs such as Sequoia, gas prices must no longer be a concern. At present, the only way to buy this SUV in China is through the parallel imported car market. In the second-hand car market, it is almost hard to see it. Even if there is, it is basically a 2010 model, and the price is about 400,000-600,000 yuan.
Toyota 4 Runner
Average holding time: 10 years
Toyota 4Runner is based on the same platform of Hilux pickup truck. SUV, domestically called Speedmaster or Freener, is mainly sold in North America. 4Runner looks like a classic Toyota family design, with very strong practicality, not playing with the concept of nothingness, and completely pragmatic. As a 7-seater SUV, its interior space can be said to be very sufficient, the rear can be automatically adjusted to match the available space independently.
Power part, 4Runner is equipped with a 4.0-liter V6 engine, and the transmission part is matched with a 5-speed ECT-i automatic transmission. In addition, the car is also equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive system, and standard X-REAS enhanced suspension, the off-road ability is beyond doubt, compared to the Prado can only be better. However, the car has not been introduced to the country, even if there is a small amount of parallel imports, big coffees have visited the large and small used car market, and there is no 4Runner used car model. Its selling price in the domestic parallel import market is about 500,000-750,000 yuan, this priceIt also discourages many people.
Ford Expedition
Average holding time: 10.1 years
Ford Expedition, generally called "Conqueror" in China , A full-size SUV that is one size larger than the same imported Ford Explorer. There are standard version and extended version for Fu Fei Fei. Another brother in the same class is Lincoln's Navigator. The standard version is about 5.3m long, the longer version is close to 5.7m, and the width is more than 2m. It is a real giant. The Conqueror is available in 7 and 8 seats. The 7-seater model is 2+2+3, and there is an aisle in the middle of the second row. There is plenty of space in each row, and the back two rows can be completely laid down, so there is no pressure to move.
In terms of power, the Conqueror uses a 3.5T Ecoboost V6 engine, and the transmission is matched with a 10AT gearbox. Equipped with a four-wheel drive system with high and low four-wheel drive and two-wheel drive switching functions. The front and rear are independent suspensions, which is different from Ford's pickups, and the comfort is obviously much better. Fu Fei service users are currently almost invisible in the domestic market. It is not easy to buy them. They can only go to the parallel imported car market to find them. There is no need to think about the second-hand car market. The price range of domestic parallel imports for standard axles and extended versions is currently between 600,000 and 950,000 yuan. I really want to say that it is not easy to love you.
Toyota Land Cruiser
Average holding time: 11.4 years
The land cruiser is also the former domestic version of the Rand Cool Road Ze, now this model has been discontinued in China. This car has a history of more than 50 years. In 50 years, the Land Cruiser can be said to be a successful off-road vehicle. The reason for the domestic suspension of production is the need for a special production line, and the high cost has led to high prices. Therefore, Land Cruiser is at a disadvantage in the same-positioned off-road vehicle. Not only other brands, but Toyota's internal competition is also fierce. Coupled with the squeeze of parallel imports, the sales of Land Cruiser are sluggish, so domestic production is stopped. .
As a hardcore off-road vehicle, Land Cruiser has achieved durability, reliability and off-road performance in the glorious years of the past few decades. With a higher sense of luxury and quality, it truly becomes a world-class SUV. When Chen's trend changed, a generation of "off-road kings" fell and withdrew from the stage of history. However, it is very popular in the US market, and many car owners are reluctant to let go. At present, its price in the domestic second-hand car market may drop to around 600,000 yuan, but it depends on the models of different eras. Newer models cost more than 900,000 second-hand cars. There will also be opportunities in some second-hand car markets. See its figure.
