Why is the Velite 6 Plug-in Hybrid Not Selling Well?

The reasons why the Velite 6 Plug-in Hybrid is not selling well are as follows: The vehicle is too heavy. Plug-in hybrid vehicles adopt a parallel structure, which means adding a battery and motor to a traditional fuel-powered car. As a result, the entire powertrain becomes very heavy, requiring more energy to operate, thus diminishing the significance of a new energy vehicle. Higher initial cost: Compared to conventional fuel-powered cars or pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid models have a higher initial cost. Consumers who opt for new energy vehicles to save money may develop a negative impression of such cars. Lower resale value: A significant reason many people are reluctant to buy new energy vehicles is their lower resale value. Since new energy vehicles rely on rechargeable batteries, their range deteriorates over time due to battery degradation, often dropping to 70-80% of the original range, whereas fuel-powered cars maintain consistent performance. This results in the resale value of new energy vehicles being much lower than that of traditional fuel-powered cars.
