Unannounced visits to 4S shops: Is it worthwhile to spend tens of thousands more?

With the popularization of technology and the reduction of cost, the hybrid system has now been decentralized to compact cars of 65,438+0-200,000 yuan, such as FAW Toyota with Corolla twin engines, GAC Toyota with Ralink twin engines, and GAC Honda Lingpai also launched a sharp hybrid version in June this year to join the competition of home hybrid cars.

In this way, the problem comes. The same type of hybrid system is often more expensive than traditional fuel power, and the terminal concessions are also different. For a model with a price of 10 million yuan or more, the fluctuation of the price difference has become a great influence. Then, for consumers who are holding money and waiting to see, is it worthwhile to spend tens of thousands more, or do you need to spend tens of thousands more? Can the oil money saved really make up the difference?

In order to understand the most accurate and cutting-edge situation, recently, from the consumer's point of view, we made unannounced visits to local Guangzhou Automobile Toyota 4S stores, FAW Toyota 4S stores and Guangzhou Automobile Honda 4S stores to understand the market of these hybrid compact cars-to see how to choose the hybrid version and the fuel version.

Corolla double engine: the price difference is not as big as the invoice.

First, we came to FAW Toyota 4S store.

When you enter the 4S shop, you can see the Corolla in the C position of the entire 4S shop at a glance. Both the fuel version and the non-hybrid version have exhibition cars. And even if Zhi Xingjun arrived at the store earlier, there were already many onlookers at the Corolla Auto Show.

After the receptionist arranged the sales staff for Zhi Xingjun, we went straight to the topic-how much discount does Corolla Double Engine have? According to the detailed calculation of the sales staff, the current discount range of Corolla Double Engine is 1 10,000 yuan. Based on China Elite Edition, plus purchase tax, insurance and licensing fees, the final landing price is 1.56 1 000 yuan. The licensing fee of 2500 yuan is reasonable, and the insurance of 6800 yuan is also optional.

Then we continued to ask about the cost of the fuel version. In this regard, the salesperson said that the preferential margin and the licensing fee are basically the same, but the purchase tax will be different according to the car price. In this way, it is also an elite version, and the dual-engine version is about 10,000 yuan, nearly 20,000 yuan.

But on closer inspection, there are still many differences between the dual engine and the fuel version in other aspects.

The first is to apply for a mortgage loan. Corolla dual engine does not support interest-free service, and the fuel version supports interest-free installment under a certain period and quota. Both the dual-engine version and the fuel version need to pay a mortgage fee of 3000 yuan. In this way, there will be a gap of several thousand yuan between the two in installment interest.

Secondly, it is the difference in practicality. Because of the battery placement, the double-engine version cannot form a flat space after putting down the rear seat, but the fuel version does not have such a problem. However, as far as daily use is concerned, whether it is space or trunk, there is not much difference between the dual-engine version and the fuel version.

Third, it is in configuration. First of all, we can see from the configuration table that the fuel version has more sports and luxury versions than the dual engine, and the configuration options will be more abundant.

In addition, although the configuration names of the dual-engine version and the fuel version are similar, they are actually different. For example, the dual-engine version has the lowest automatic air conditioning, and the fuel version has only the deluxe version and the flagship version; Another example is the elite version, but the double engine has more rear air outlets, keyless entry, advanced fabric seats, automatic air conditioning and so on. , very close to the configuration level of 1.2T Deluxe Edition.

The price difference between 1.2T Deluxe Edition and Twin-Engine Elite Edition is only about 10,000 yuan, but Twin-Engine also has a more fuel-efficient hybrid system, and the driving quality has also been greatly improved. So to sum up, the attraction of the double-issue version is far greater than the figures on the pricing list.

Finally, how to choose? Actually, it's not hard to answer. If the budget is limited, the pioneer and elite versions of 1.2T are preferred. If you like a more sporty look, 1.2T exercise will undoubtedly be more suitable. And if the budget is sufficient, under the premise that the price difference is about 10 thousand yuan, the dual-engine version is undoubtedly more worth choosing. But if you ask how to choose the twin-engine elite version and 1.2T top, it depends on whether you are pursuing comfortable configuration or driving quality.

It is worth noting that the sales staff also said that the preferential margins of the two kinds of power can be further discussed.

Leiling Shuangqing: Double halal is very attractive.

Next, we immediately came to Guangzhou Automobile Toyota 4S store.

Because of the rain, the traffic of Guangzhou Automobile Toyota 4S store is not particularly large, so just entering the store, the sales staff immediately found us to understand the car purchase situation. We also went directly to the Ralink car show.

After understanding, the sales staff said that the discount range of Leiling Shuangqing was about 1.2 million yuan, so the best-selling Shuangqing Deluxe Edition was calculated. Plus the purchase tax, licensing fees, insurance and other expenses, the final landing cost is less than/kloc-0.5 million yuan. The authorization fee is 2000 yuan and the financial service fee is 3000 yuan. However, it should be noted that if you play a wild card, you need to increase the authorization fee by 2000 yuan, that is, the authorization fee is 4000 yuan. In fact, from this point of view, the other expenses of the ralink dual-engine version are equivalent to those of corolla, which is lower than that of lingpai sharp world and hybrid.

However, what is even more surprising is that I learned the price of the fuel version in Lei Ling.

According to the salesperson, the preferential margin of the fuel version is the same as that of the double engine, which is 6.5438+0.2 million yuan, while the authorization fee and financial service fee are the same. Based on 1.2T Deluxe Edition, its final landing price is about 1.4 million yuan. Moreover, the configuration selection of the fuel version is also consistent with the dual-engine version, and there are enterprising version, luxury version, sports version, technology version and exclusive version to choose from. In other words, the price difference between the whole department, the dual-engine version and the fuel version is about 1 10,000 yuan.

So is there anything strange in the mortgage loan? The answer-the two are equally consistent. Both the fuel version and the dual-engine version support two-year interest-free installment service, and the interest gap also does not exist.

Then the difference lies in the configuration. In fact, both have a very high level of configuration. Starting from the deluxe edition, the whole system is equipped with a complete driver assistance system such as adaptive cruise and lane keeping system. Moreover, in the same configuration, the dual engine also has automatic air conditioning, driving mode selection, voice control system with more functions and so on. Coupled with the improvement of power experience, the price difference of about 10,000 yuan is definitely more attractive for the dual-engine version.

So how to choose is very simple, unless the budget can only reach the minimum configuration of the fuel version, or focus on the dual-engine version.

Lingpairui hybrid: the price difference is large, but it also depends on the demand.

Finally, we came to the rising star of this market segment-Lingpairui hybrid Guangqi Honda 4S store.

When I first entered Guangqi Honda's 4S store, I left the deepest impression on Zhixingjun that the traffic was very large. No matter which model it is, there are so many onlookers that I have to wait for a while before I really get on the Lingpai Rui hybrid exhibition car.

But the good news is that the sales staff didn't slack off and found us soon. After chatting, I learned that the Lingpai Rui hybrid system has a preferential margin of 8000 yuan. Based on the deluxe edition, the final landing price is 164678 yuan after adding the authorization fee, agency authorization service fee, insurance and purchase tax.

There are several items worth noting in the price list. First, it has two authorization fees, one is authorization fee 130 yuan, and the other is agency authorization service fee of 3,000 yuan; Second, if you apply for a loan, whether it is the fuel version or the sharp mixed version, you need a financial service fee of 4,000 yuan. This cost is higher than that of Corolla and Lei Ling.

However, this is not a "routine" for salespeople. These charges are clearly stated in the eye-catching place of Guangqi Honda 4 S, such as the loan service fee of 4,000 yuan, the mortgage service fee of 500-800 yuan, and the licensing fee of 3,000-7,000 yuan. Moreover, the sales staff also made it very clear that as long as consumers are willing to go to the licensing themselves, this licensing agency fee can be exempted.

After consulting the sharp mixed version, continue to ask the fuel version. Who knows "don't ask, don't know, ask and be surprised".

In terms of sales volume, the preferential margin of the fuel version reached 20,000 yuan, and other licensing fees and financial service fees were the same as those of the hybrid version. Based on the top distribution 1.0T, the final landing price after the discount is13.182,300 yuan. In this way, the difference with the sharp world is about 22,000 yuan.

Moreover, there are other gaps between the sharp hybrid version and the fuel version.

One is mortgage loan. The fuel version supports interest-free installment, and the sharp hybrid version does not support interest-free installment. Based on the loan of 75,000 yuan for 35 installments, the fuel interest is saved by 9,000 yuan.

The other is practicality, because the Sharp hybrid battery is placed in the trunk, so the volume and expansibility of the Sharp hybrid trunk are not as good as the fuel version. However, it is commendable that Lingpai's leapfrog space is still not absent from Lingpai Rui's mixing, and ride comfort is still a big advantage.

So what are the advantages of the sharp mixed version? The first is driving quality and fuel economy. 1.5L hybrid blessing has significantly improved the power experience and driving experience of Lingpai, and the suspension tuning and NVH performance have also been fully optimized. The second is configuration. From the perspective of the whole system configuration, Lingpai Rui hybrid is obviously more kind, such as the coverage of rear parking radar, keyless entry, perforated leather seats, rear radar, automatic air conditioning, LED headlights and other configurations. It will be higher.

So how to choose is also very clear. Pursuing cost performance, the fuel version is undoubtedly more worthy of choice, and the driving quality of the three-cylinder engine is not at ease, so the sharp and hybrid are definitely more to your liking. Of course, if you have a choice between the two, then you might as well take a look at the sharp mixed version, whose excellent driving quality will definitely make you shine.

Zhixing has something to say.

To be honest, with the price difference between these three cars, can it really be measured by oil price? The answer is obviously no, if you drive 15000 kilometers a year, the fuel consumption difference per 100 kilometers is 2L. If you calculate the oil price per liter of 6 yuan (easy to calculate), you will only save 1800 yuan a year. Judging from the above price difference, it is basically more than ten years of driving experience.

But in fact, hybrid and fuel have never been calculated simply with fuel-efficient money. The overall improvement of experience and driving quality is actually the difference between the two. Moreover, from the perspective of the mix of Corolla Twin Engine, Ralink Twin Engine and Lingpai Sharp, there are also obvious differences in configuration.

How to choose, consumers need to put down their calculators and really choose a car that really suits their needs from their inner needs.
