Can the Mazda3 Axela be purchased for 120,000 yuan including all fees?
3 Answers
If it is the manual comfort version, it can be purchased including all fees. Below is the relevant introduction: 1. Mazda3 Axela: The Mazda3 Axela is a car produced by Changan Mazda, adopting the new generation "Skyactiv" technology and the third model with the "Kodo" design theme, debuted at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show. 2. Design: This model is equipped with an advanced human-machine interface that prioritizes driving safety and features the first application of the "MZD Connect" Mazda connectivity system. The entire vehicle configuration consistently reflects a technological and user-friendly driving experience.
As a seasoned car enthusiast who frequently checks car prices, I think it's a bit difficult to get the Mazda3 Axela (also known as the Mazda3) for 120,000 RMB out-the-door. The base model's ex-factory price is roughly between 100,000 to 120,000 RMB, but the out-the-door price includes additional fees like purchase tax and insurance. The purchase tax is 10% of the ex-factory price, at least over 10,000 RMB; insurance costs around 5,000 RMB; and some regions charge a license plate fee of a few hundred RMB. Adding these up, the total cost easily approaches 130,000 RMB. However, market conditions fluctuate—during promotions or year-end sales in some areas, the price might edge close to 120,000 RMB. I recommend visiting a dealership for a detailed quote to get an accurate out-the-door price. Additionally, the Mazda3 Axela offers a smooth driving experience, excellent fuel efficiency, and low maintenance costs, which are quite appealing. If your budget is slightly tight, consider financing or a down payment instead of pushing for full payment to avoid overspending.
As a young person who recently bought a car, I understand your thoughts. A budget of 120,000 RMB for the out-the-door price is really tight. When I researched the Mazda 3, the base model's ex-factory price was around 100,000 RMB negotiable, but after adding taxes and insurance, the total out-the-door price would start from around 125,000 RMB. Insurance costs about 5,000-6,000 RMB, and taxes are at least over 10,000 RMB. If you have friends who can help you negotiate aggressively or if you catch a holiday promotion, you might barely get close to 120,000 RMB. It's rare to find a new car at this out-the-door price. You might want to consider the used car market—some nearly new Mazda 3s with low mileage are available, and 120,000 RMB would be more than enough, saving you a lot of money. Visit multiple 4S stores to compare prices, and don’t easily trust verbal promises. Make sure the salesperson provides a written breakdown of all costs before making a decision. The car handles well, but don’t just focus on the price and overlook safety features.
