Why are used Roewe 350 cars so cheap?

Roewe 350's current five-year residual value rates in the used car market are 66.07%, 58.40%, 50.62%, 42.95%, and 35.48% respectively. According to statistics from the China Automobile Dealers Association, the average first-year residual value rate for domestic used cars is 70%, and the third-year average is 60%. Roewe 350's first three years are all below these average standards, making it a model with extremely poor value retention. Additional information about Roewe 350 is as follows: 1. The residual value rates of mainstream competitor vehicles serve as an important indicator for consumers to judge cost-effectiveness before purchasing. Besides its poor residual value rate, Roewe 350 previously had no competitive advantage compared to mainstream competitors like the Civic, Corolla, and Lavida, forcing it to rely on significant price reductions to boost sales. This has led to the current phenomenon of Roewe 350 being cheap in the used car market. 2. Cost-effectiveness Roewe 350 is an affordable domestic brand model, and its used car prices are even cheaper. It offers adequate space, comfortable seats, and decent quality—nothing extraordinary but solid overall. However, factors like relatively high fuel consumption and expensive maintenance costs are enough to make most consumers choose other models with better cost-effectiveness.

How to Deal with Drowsiness While Driving on the Highway

When feeling drowsy while driving on the highway, you can roll down the window for fresh air and keep essential oil like Feng You Jing in the car. Chewing gum or listening to upbeat music can also help, but the best solution is to pull over and rest. Before resuming your journey, adjusting the seat height or angle (without affecting driving) can prevent quick fatigue recurrence. Here are effective measures against highway drowsiness: 1. Open the Window for Ventilation: Prolonged use of air conditioning increases drowsiness. When sleepy, turn off the AC, open windows briefly to circulate air. Fresh airflow significantly boosts alertness. 2. Keep Feng You Jing in the Car: This essential oil not only soothes insect bites but also revitalizes the mind. Sniffing it periodically while driving effectively wards off sleepiness. 3. Chew Gum or Listen to Upbeat Music: Stimulate brain activity by chewing gum or playing energetic music, which elevates overall alertness. 4. Pull Over and Rest: Sleeping when tired remains the optimal solution. If extreme fatigue persists despite other methods, immediately drive to a service area for a short nap.
