Hello, i'm a lake light painting that brings you up to date every day
It's been on the road for yearsNew energy vehicleMore and more, many people keep staring at their cars, speed up, their interiors, and it's easy to ignore a very realistic thing, that's laterMaintenance costsI don't know. Fuel trucks have been running for a long time. Most of the cost is engine, gearbox maintenance, and the biggest cost of new energy trucks is powerBatteryThis is in addition to electrical controls, exclusive body parts and integrated chassis, which, in case of problems, can easily exceed the psychological expectations of the owner。
The first point is that it is not that the vehicles are of poor quality per se, but rather that different brands have different warranty policies, spare parts supply, and integrated parts design ideas that directly open up the maintenance cost gap. Many of the owners only bought the car for five or six years, and it was discovered that the cost of repairing the car had been so high after battery decay or bumping. Today, we are objectively combing 10 new energy models with high maintenance costs, with a clear explanation of the reasons behind them, and a practical reference for friends who are ready to buy a car or who have already driven a new one。
The tenth-placed vehicle, a product of an early, high-end, pure electrical platform, was listed for a luxury car with a large number of integrated body structures, many of which were brand-specific, and it was difficult for third-party repair plants in the market to obtain replacement parts. The normal small maintenance price is not expensive, but in the event of a collision on the side of the car and on the base, the integrated castling-related shell is damaged and cannot be trimmed in isolation. In many cases, the full sum needs to be replaced, which alone amounts to tens of thousands of yuan. In the case of batteries, the original plant had a high price for spare parts, so that the basic guarantee could cover non-anthropogenic battery failure for eight years or 160,000 kilometres at the original plant, and the cost pressure would increase significantly if the replacement was self-funded beyond the time of the warranty. The vehicle is suitable for the owner who intends to transfer within the quality assurance cycle and, if planned for more than 10 years, pre-encumbers the budget for battery maintenance。
The ninth was a high-performance pure power suv, which was played by track acceleration and air suspension configuration. Air hangers are in themselves highly costly spare parts for repair, and the vehicle's air-depressors, gas cylinders and distribution valves are all integrated, with any component malfunctioning, and many repair plants recommend that the package be replaced directly, with a single offer often up to 20,000. Its battery pack is layouted directly below the chassis, which is low, and it is easy to scrape through the pads on a daily bad road, with a probability of damage to the internal module of the battery bag if the shell breaks into the water. The vehicle has the advantage of being dynamic and driving well, but the chassis is vulnerable, the suspension parts have a short replacement cycle and the owner of the vehicle, who is used for a long time, spends a significant amount of money annually on chassis maintenance。
Eighth, an early launch of a long-carrying pure sedan was relatively early in the market, when battery modules were purchased at a much higher cost than now, and the whole car was not integrated with the late-populated ctc battery chassis, but battery casings and large cooling tube heights were integrated. The second-hand market price for this car is not very high, and many people find tens of thousands of dollars worth of pick-ups, and they do not step on the pit until they really do. Once the vehicle has contracted, the price of replacing a single module is not low, while the quality of the open-air parts is uneven and it is difficult to find a source of reliance. In the event of a water bubble incident, multiple modules within the battery bag are damaged at the same time, and the cost of replacing the package at its own expense is almost close to the residual value of the used vehicle itself. Therefore, the selection of this second-hand new energy vehicle must focus on detecting battery health and avoiding as much as possible the source of bubble water and chassis。
The seventh is a large, luxurious, pure electric mpv, which has its own large body size, with its body cover, doors and surroundings larger than ordinary cars, and a higher price per se for spare parts. The vehicle was equipped with a large amount of smart sensor hardware, with multiple cameras and millimetre-wave radars placed on the roof, front windproof positions, and, in the event of tailings or twitches, radar, camera casings that broke, could not be replaced by outer casings, most of which would require a set replacement, combined with calibration time, a maintenance bill could easily exceed 30,000. Batteries are highly inclusive, the battery packages are self-heavy, the maintenance and dismantling process is complicated after the chassis bumps, and the working hours are much higher than normal passenger vehicles. Most of these luxury mpvs are used for long-distance family trips or business hospitality, complex car scenes, expensive spare parts, cumbersome marking processes and high overall maintenance costs。
Sixth, the primary high-end intelligent, medium-sized pure suv, a large number of integrated electronic parts of the whole vehicle, bound together with the entire area controller, the vehicle-mounted computer and multiple functional modules. Many of the functional modules of the traditional fuel truck are stand-alone and the bad one is replaced by one, which is a model of area-controlled high-intensity integration, a regional circuit failure, difficult to screen, and many third-party maintenance stores do not have the corresponding lower-level diagnostic powers and have to go back to the brand for official after-sale maintenance, which is much higher than outside repair plants. In the case of batteries, the car-type battery guarantee is linked to the vehicle's transfer. If the vehicle moves, the battery's life-related interests change, the owner of the second-hand car has to pay for the maintenance of subsequent batteries, and many owners of the second-hand car tend to ignore this rule until the battery decays and discovers that there is no warranty。
Fifth, a two-wire high-performance pure sedan with a large capacity of three cents of lithium batteries with a zero acceleration of brightness. There is an electrical and control system for each of the two sets of versions, comparing the single vehicle type with a doubling of the number of motor components, and more points for the maintenance of components such as electric bearings, brakes and high-pressure beams. The battery pack is dense in-house cooling pipes, which are difficult to dismantle after leakage, and many back-door shops directly recommend the replacement of the complete battery pack. In the event of a major accident in the vehicle, the electrical shell is deformed, the individual shell is difficult to procure separately, most of which directly replaces the total number of electric generators and the total cost of a single generator is considerable. The rate of wear and tear of electrics and speed-retarders is faster and the cost of long-term maintenance increases。
Fourth, the biggest problem with the import model of a single import brand's medium-sized pure power suv is the length of the spare parts supply chain, which mostly requires overseas orders for spare parts, which are expensive and wait for spare parts for one or two months. Many vulnerable countries do not have indigenousized alternatives, and the third-party market has virtually no suitable spare parts, all of which are procured through official sources. Battery packages are customised overseas, and it is difficult for domestic third-party battery manufacturers to create a model that can be replaced directly, and all battery-related maintenance needs to be handled by the original plant once the original plant has been secured. While the entire undercarriage is of good quality, the long waiting period for late friction maintenance and the high unit cost of spare parts can cause considerable trouble to the owner of the vehicle without a spare vehicle because of its high frequency。
Third, an early, high-end, pure electric motor vehicle, which is itself small in size and has low market holdings. Low holdings present two immediate problems, with low spare parts production, high spare parts pricing and few mature third-party maintenance programmes. The body is heavily covered with carbon fibres, and once the carbon fibre parts are broken, repairing them is much more difficult than steel plates and aluminium alloys, and small areas are costly to repair, and large areas are largely subject to direct replacement. Power batteries are customised for motor vehicles, with very low yields and high replacement costs for battery packages. Such vehicles are more suitable for collection or short-distance use, are not suitable for frequent daily commuters and have a high level of long-term maintenance stress。
The second is the flagship's large, pure sedan, which locates the whole car at the branded ceiling level, carrying a full air hanger, a cdc electromagnetic shock, a full laser radar sensor system, and a full battery tolerance. Laser radars are installed at the head of the vehicle, with a slight tailing likely to result in a radar shift or a fragmentation of the outer casing, and the replacement of laser radars will require joint multi-sensor marking of the vehicle as a whole, complex scheduling and costly working hours. Components such as air hangers, electrically controlled shocks, etc., are prone to leakages and oil spills over the course of their useful life, and the replacement of the entire chassis is costly. The new vehicle was sold at a high price, the spare parts were all brand-specific, the spare parts were priced at a high level, and the entire vehicle maintenance cost was in the first stage of the national high-end new energy vehicle。
First, the total cost of the vehicle-type power cell was 200,000 for the replacement at its own expense, which was also the most expensive model for battery maintenance in this inventory. It is a pure motor vehicle of the top-class luxurious flagship, carrying a super-high-capacity customized power cell, a fully integrated high-pressure management system within the battery pack, complex liquid cooling circuits, and customized for battery single-body specifications, with virtually no third-party modules available to replace on the market. The whole vehicle is extremely luxurious, all core parts of the whole vehicle are customised and developed with low spare parts production and high material costs. It is to be objectively stated that if vehicles are not used for bumping or bubbleing water, battery decay or failure within the original plant's quality guarantee, they can be handled in accordance with the brand quality policy, without the high cost. However, in the event that the vehicle is released or the battery bag is damaged as a result of an accident or water-related incident, the cost of replacing the battery bag is high. The target population of the car was itself well budgeted, the new car landed in a very high budget, and many owners would not be able to escape bail, but it was important that the general consumer choose to have an objective picture of this later maintenance。
After looking at these 10 models, a lot of people wonder, is new energy trucks expensive to repair? It is not true that we can objectively dismantle some of the core reasons for the high cost of repairing new energy vehicles, so that people can avoid pits when buying them。
First, the material costs of the power cells themselves are high. Batteries are the highest cost components of new energy vehicles, and the larger the capacity, the greater the customization, the more expensive. Battery raw materials prices have fallen somewhat in recent years, but the cost of materials remains high because of large-capacity customized battery packages for flagship vehicles. Many people think that batteries are just a pile of cores, and that the complete battery packs in fact contain a large number of spare parts such as bms management main panels, cooling pipes, insulation structures, casings, high-pressure insurance, etc., with high overall r & d production costs。
The second point is that the integrated design of the whole vehicle brings about a change in maintenance logic. Many of the new vehicles are now designed to be ctc, ctb integrated and battery bags are also used as body structures. Once the bottom shell is damaged, the power core cannot simply be removed for replacement, maintenance programmes become complex, and in many cases the official sales directly recommend a total replacement and maintenance costs increase directly. Compared to the old model that used to be able to remove individual battery packs for repair, the maintenance threshold was significantly higher, although the integrated body would enhance rigidity and continuity。
Thirdly, a large amount of smart hardware raises maintenance bills. The high-end configurations of laser radars, multi-eye cameras, millimetre wave radars, air hangers, electro-controlled tremors, and whole-area controllers can significantly enhance driving experience, but the unit cost of spare parts is high, specialized marking is required after maintenance, common repair plants lack the equipment and official diagnostic authority to select brand 4s shop maintenance, with higher working hours。
Fourth, the supply chain of vehicle-type holdings and accessories affects prices. Large market-owned, domestic supply chains are mature, third-party factories can produce replacement parts, and the facilities are more resource-rich and maintenance prices can be reduced. Small crowd, import type, flagshipLuxury car typeSpare parts are in low circulation, replacements are rarely selected and maintenance prices are naturally high。
Fifth, differences in quality assurance policies directly determine whether the owner is paying for himself. Different brand battery quality rules differ, with some brands requiring vehicles to be unobligated, to be maintained at an official door for the entire journey, once the breach has failed; some brands provide only eight years of basic quality assurance and all battery maintenance after expiry is self-financed. Many consumers buy cars without careful reading of quality assurance rules, and it is not until later problems are encountered that rights are limited。
A few practical suggestions were then given to friends who were about to select new energy vehicles, or who were already driving them, to control the cost of later maintenance。
First, before buying a car, the whole car and the power battery guarantee agreement are carefully studied, focusing on the number of years of quality assurance, kilometres, changes in interests after the transfer, and the circumstances in which they fall within the scope of exemption, as in the case of chassis, water-related, self-modified high-voltage systems, most of which are not covered by the guarantee. The selection of the model is based on the number of years the vehicle is planned to hold, and, if it is intended to drive for more than eight years, preference is given to a fully developed domestic model of the battery spare parts supply chain。
Second, the vehicle must be protected against the chassis. The battery bags are largely fully placed below the chassis, the speed-reducing belts and the pits must be slowed, and as far as possible, the road blocks should be avoided. A compliance chassis panel may be installed on the basis of the model specifications. Regular checkups are made to check for any bumps or leaks in the case of the battery bags, and minor problems are addressed as soon as possible to avoid a breakdown into damage to the entire battery package。
Third, a rational view of high-end configurations, chosen according to their own needs. If only day-to-day urban commuting takes place, it does not have to be a step-by-step option for a full air hanger, multi-laser radar version, which, while experienced well, is subject to many later maintenance projects, with sustained maintenance costs associated with long-term holding. Home-based step preference is given to structured, market-enabled versions, later parts are better located and maintenance is cheaper。
Fourth, second-hand new energy vehicle purchases must be fully tested. The purchase of second-hand new energy vehicles cannot be viewed only in terms of appearance and mileage. It is important to test battery health, the absence of chassis impacts, the history of bubble water, to ascertain whether battery security rights can be transferred along with the vehicle and to avoid, to the extent possible, major chassis accidents, and the source of bubble water, with a high probability of subsequent failure of high pressure components。
Article v, when buying a car, allows for a combined comparison of the preservation rate. The high preservation rate of a car-type, the side-section of the market, the improved supply chain for spare parts, and the ease with which intermediate maintenance can be found, in addition to a few years of turnover, will result in fewer losses. Instead of simply looking at the price of a new car landing, the five- and eight-year cycles of maintenance, replacement of vulnerable items and battery maintenance should be fully includedCost of vehiclesConsider。
The new energy car industry is developing rapidly, and a growing number of brands have become aware of the pressure on consumers of late maintenance costs, with a number of brands starting to introduce battery pack maintenance, model group replacement services, no more one-size-fits-all direct requests for the replacement of the entire battery, and a variety of brand roll-out options such as battery buyout and battery leasing that lower the threshold for car purchase and maintenance. Technology overlaps will also continue to optimize battery maintenance programmes, and future costs for new energy vehicle maintenance are expected to be further optimized。
The vehicle itself is a tool, without an absolutely perfect model, and the luxury model can give greater power and greater comfort, but the cost of maintenance will be higher; the home-car owner will stabilize and maintenance costs will be more friendly. The most important thing in buying cars is to match their long-term budget and their use, which cannot be attracted only by the parameters of acceleration, large screens and super-extension, ignoring the costs of raising cars for years。
Topical discussion: have you ever experienced maintenance costs exceeding expectations while using new energy vehicles? Will you prioritize the cost of later maintenance as an important reference when you select new energy vehicles? Comments were welcome from the comment area, and interest was expressed in keeping the account numbers under constant focus, followed by continued sharing of vehicle selection and drying。
