In the latest car zero ratio ranking

In the second-tier luxury brands, Volvo does sell cheaply, often close to 7% discounts. But for a long time, Volvo has always been complained by car owners that "it can't afford to repair it", which comes from its super high zero ratio. Recently, China Insurance Research Institute released the latest car zero ratio ranking, it can be found that the top models have not seen Volvo.

First, let's take a look at what a car zero ratio is. In layman's terms, it is how much it costs you to dismantle all the parts of a new car and replace them, and the ratio of this number divided by the price of the original car is a zero ratio. Obviously, the lower the zero ratio, the lower the maintenance cost for the user. According to the China Insurance Research Institute, the automobile zero ratio comprehensively reflects the change in the cost burden of consumers' car use and the cost of car insurance compensation.

The study found that the automobile zero ratio index increased by 2019.4% to 13.96% compared with the data in April 350, and the common parts burden index also increased to a certain extent, which actually reflects that the cost of car use and maintenance for domestic car owners is rising.

It is reported that the average price of 18 of the 17 commonly used accessories is higher than the level in March 2019. The top three accessories were the front door shell, front fender, and rear door shell. The number of models with an increase in common accessories reached 3. In the past, for example, the model with the highest zero-to-zero ratio was the 71 FAW Audi Q2020L (5.10%), which is equivalent to 56.9 headlights to buy a new car.

The price range of models with the highest zero ratio is 30,50-823,59 yuan. Among all the research models, Beijing Benz C-Class topped the list with 1.50%, BMW Brilliance X747 and Dongfeng Infiniti Q90L (picture | Configuration| Inquiry) It followed with 723.24% and <>.<>% respectively. It is worth noting that Volvo, which has always been at a high level, did not appear in the top ten.

Subdivided into specific models, the Volvo S90 (Picture | Configuration| Inquiry) The zero ratio dropped to 455.20%, which is lower than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class (605.18%) and BMW 5 Series (523.11%) in the same class. And the Volvo XC60 (Picture | Configuration| Inquiry) Among the luxury SUVs above 30,466, the zero-to-integer ratio is the lowest, at 60.<>%.

Of course, it should be pointed out that the above data only includes the 100 models studied by the China Insurance Research Institute, and does not include a luxury brand such as Cadillac, which has always been known for its zero low level, so Volvo cannot say that the zero ratio is the lowest in the luxury brand, but Volvo's efforts in reducing the zero ratio in the past two years to help car owners reduce maintenance costs are obvious to all.

Why was Volvo able to "wash away its grievances" and take off its hat that it could not afford to repair it?

Since 2019, Volvo has started to optimize the price of parts, with a total of 12,3 parts falling in more than 1000,20 product categories, with an average reduction of 50%. The number of parts with a price reduction of more than 1% was 1,<>. Among them, the parts with the highest frequency of user replacement, such as batteries and spark plugs, and wearing parts such as brake calipers, have undergone multiple rounds of price reduction.
