The monthly cost is 1558 yuan, and the new Loulan 2.5L car maintenance cost.

　　[Cost of car maintenance] There is no doubt that the car owners who were concerned before now have a new choice:-. With higher-end positioning, larger body size and overlapping pricing with Qijun’s high-profile models. More luxurious positioning and sharp design style, these advantages make it occupy the position of "Qijun" quickly after listing.

　　From what we have learned, the attention of this new car offline is not low, and it is basically directed at the 2.5L model. In the words of the sales consultant, "Qijun’s budget with high allocation is more in line with consumer psychology." However, I also have a question. Since Loulan’s 2.5L is the same as Qijun’s, how much will it be worse in terms of maintenance costs? With this question, I walked into Dongfeng Nissan 4S shop and planned to find out.(hereinafter referred to as the brand-new Loulan)

● Model introduction

　　There are 9 models with two displacements in the new Loulan. Except for the 2.5T top, all the other models are, of which 6 are naturally aspirated engines, and 3 are hybrid models with 2.5T+ motors. In terms of gearbox, all models adopt continuously variable gearboxes that can simulate 7 gears.

　　We learned from dealers that at present, only the 2.5L model of the brand-new Loulan has arrived at the store, and the 2.5T model has not received the specific notice of arrival, so it may take a while. Considering the current concern of this model, we will only use the 2.5L model as the collection basis in this issue.

● The warranty policy/maintenance interval is the same as that of Qijun.

　　We learned from the dealer that,The brand-new Loulan is the same as Qijun in terms of warranty policy, both of which are guaranteed for 3 years or 100,000 kilometers.The validity period of the three guarantees is still 2 years or 50,000 kilometers, and the former can prevail when consumers exercise their rights and interests.

　　In terms of maintenance interval, the brand-new Loulan and Qijun are the same, with free inspection when driving to 1,000 kilometers, free first maintenance when driving to 5,000 kilometers, and then maintenance every 5,000 kilometers.

　　In terms of maintenance interval, there is no difference between the brand-new Loulan and Qijun.It is also the first inspection at 1000 km, the first insurance for free at 5000 km, and then every 5000 km.It is worth mentioning that,Although both are CVT gearboxes, Loulan’s replacement cycle is longer. Compared with Qijun’s 60,000 km replacement, the new Loulan has reached the level of 100,000 km.

● Spare parts prices and working hours(Fixed expenditure part)

　　The cost of spare parts and materials of the new Loulan 2.5L model is not much different from that of Qijun’s 2.5L model, which is undoubtedly a good thing, except that the price of some parts and working hours are slightly different, this model does maintain a new price level.It should be noted that the working hours of the new Loulan adopt the "package system", which seems to be much more expensive than the previous Qijun 2.5L model.In other words, when you drive to the recommended maintenance, you only need to add up all the materials costs of the changed items, and then add the package working hours of the corresponding mileage.

● Trial calculation of maintenance cost(Fixed expenditure part)

　　Next, we will calculate the maintenance cost.In the process of investigation, we learned that the oil consumption of the brand-new Loulan is about 4.5L, but the cheapest mineral oil by default in the original factory is not 1L, which means that you have to buy two barrels of 8L oil. Every time you change the remaining oil, it will cause a lot of waste, and the oil sealing is very particular. It is actually difficult to maintain the quality of the remaining oil.

　　Therefore, I suggest that you can choose a higher level of semi-synthetic engine oil.Although the oil is tens of yuan more expensive, at least it won’t cause a lot of waste, and the quality of oil has also improved, which is relatively the most cost-effective choice.

●　Fuel consumption level(2.5L model)

　　For the new Loulan 2.5L model, the fuel consumption is 9.7L/100km；; In the word-of-mouth system of netizens in car home, we can see that the actual fuel consumption of the Loulan 2.5L model is about 9.2L/100km. In order to be closer to reality, we choose the fuel consumption of car home Word-of-Mouth System as the measurement standard, and calculate the total annual gasoline expenditure according to the average family car driving 15,000 kilometers a year and the current price of 95#(97#) oil in Beijing is 6.3 yuan/liter.

Calculation formula of annual fuel cost: vehicle fuel consumption × single liter fuel price × total mileage per year ÷100= total fuel cost.

Annual fuel cost of the brand-new Loulan 2.5L model: 9.2L/100km×6.3 yuan/L× 15000km ÷100=8694 yuan.

● Insurance cost(Floating expenditure part)

　　Because the insurance cost of each vehicle is different (high and low models, different types of insurance, different times of accidents and different purchase channels), we only use a reference price as a trial calculation.Take the brand-new Loulan 2.5XE two-wheel drive elite model as an example: the insurance price of compulsory insurance+commercial insurance (car damage, three, excluding deductible and passenger insurance) and vehicle and vessel use tax is about 5564 yuan.

● Other miscellaneous expenses(Floating expenditure part)

　　In addition to fuel, insurance and maintenance costs, there are a lot of miscellaneous small money, such as car washing, beauty, parking and so on. Here we quote the statistics of car home Data Research Center, that is, the average annual parking fee per car is 1,800 yuan, the monthly parking fee is 150 yuan, the annual car washing and beauty expenses are 440 yuan, and the monthly parking fee is 37 yuan. (The above data are for reference only)

●　Maintenance summary

　　"At first, I thought that the maintenance cost of the brand-new Loulan 2.5L model should not be much more expensive than Qijun. It seems that it was miscalculated." Although the maintenance interval is the same and there are many common accessories, due to the high working hours, the maintenance cost of Loulan is still several thousand yuan more expensive than Qijun, who is also a 2.5L model, and the difference is quite big.

　　Compared with its competing products, Loulan is in the middle level in terms of maintenance costs, cheaper than American rivals, and a little more expensive than Japanese representatives, which is generally reasonable. Don’t take Qijun’s price as a reference. Although the powertrain is the same, it is not a model after all. (Text/Figure car home Ren Bo)
