When purchasing a used car, the inspection mainly revolves around the vehicle's condition, such as the power battery, electrical system, and other aspects. When selecting a used new energy vehicle, due to its different structure, it is difficult to check the actual condition of some key parts without professional equipment and personnel. Extended information is as follows: 1. Inspection of the power battery: The core of a new energy vehicle's power is the power battery. The quality of the power battery directly affects the vehicle's range. Additionally, since replacing the power battery is very expensive, it is one of the key points during the inspection. 2. Motor, electronic control, and electrical system: A major cause of spontaneous combustion in new energy vehicles is faults in the electrical and electronic control systems. To avoid purchasing a vehicle with safety hazards, it is best to have a comprehensive inspection by a 4S shop, just like with the power battery. 3. Other inspections: For example, whether the steering wheel pulls to one side, whether there are abnormal noises when driving on bumpy roads, and whether the chassis is loose. Additionally, ensuring the completeness of the vehicle's documents is a routine check to rule out major accidents, repaired vehicles, water-damaged vehicles, and to verify the functionality of various vehicle components.
