What to Pay Attention to When Buying a New Energy Vehicle?
1 Answers
Key considerations when purchasing a new energy vehicle are as follows: 1. License Plate Application: After picking up the vehicle, handle matters such as invoices and insurance; have the vehicle's certificate of conformity inspected at the Industrial and Commercial Bureau; obtain a tax payment certificate (which can also serve as a tax exemption certificate) at the Vehicle Purchase Tax Collection Center; then proceed to the Vehicle Management Office with the purchase invoice, confirmation documents, and other relevant materials to complete vehicle inspection, license plate selection, and registration. 2. Charging Station Installation: The importance of charging stations is akin to a mobile phone's power bank, as their widespread distribution facilitates convenient charging for new energy vehicles. 3. Vehicle Model Selection: Currently, mainstream electric vehicles are mainly categorized into micro electric vehicles and compact electric sedans. Micro electric vehicles offer limited space, making them suitable for commuting but not ideal for family use—examples include the Zhidou D2, Zotye E200, and BenBen EV. Compact electric sedans are typically three-box cars, suitable for both family and business use—examples include the Emgrand EV300, BYD Qin EV300, BAIC New Energy EU400, and Eado EV. 4. Subsidies: In addition to national subsidies, local subsidies are often available. For instance, Beijing matches the national subsidy amount 1:1, meaning the city provides the same subsidy as the national government. Shanghai, on the other hand, offers a subsidy of 40,000 yuan per pure electric passenger vehicle and 30,000 yuan per plug-in hybrid passenger vehicle (including range-extended models) on top of the central government subsidy.
