Generally speaking, the factors that affect the price of second-hand buses are nothing more than: age, condition, procedures, configuration, color, brand, price reduction of new cars, policy influence, and spare parts.
I. Influences of objective market factors
(1) For the majority of consumers, the choice of the best time to buy a car is very important. It's the same with the property market and the stock market. When everyone is going, it's best not to join in the fun. As we are about to enter the traditional low season in May, merchants will be forced to cut prices under the pressure of capital turnover. For about 100,000 used cars, it is not surprising to see a price reduction of several thousand yuan.
(2) There are also skills in choosing the location. Generally, used car dealers choose to buy cars at auctions, 4S stores, etc., and then sell them on the market. If they can also go to Zhuanzhuan, perhaps they can save 5% to 10% of the profit.
(3) The current price of the new car market is very confusing. At the end of the year, the price increases, and after the New Year, the price decreases by tens of thousands. It really tests the heart of the car owner. If the new car price decreases by 10,000, then it is not reasonable for the used car of this model to decrease by 10,000. The price reduction in the new car market has a great impact on the used car market.
(4) The vehicle registration certificate is like a household register for people, recording a lot of information about the vehicle. The frequency of transfer is clearly registered on it. If a vehicle is frequently transferred, it indicates that there may be a problem with the vehicle that needs attention. Even if there is no major problem with the vehicle, it is common for the price to be reduced by thousands of yuan.
II. Influences of factors on the value preservation rate
The value retention rate of cars has always been an important component of the cost-effectiveness of cars. The value retention rate depends on many factors such as the performance, price fluctuation range, reliability, accessory price, and maintenance convenience of the car, and is a reflection of the overall level of the car. The advantage of a model with a high value preservation rate is that its price is less affected by price reduction trends, allowing consumers to bear less economic losses caused by product devaluation.
III. Influences of Vehicle Accident Factors
The loss of a vehicle after a collision should be determined based on an evaluation of the condition of the vehicle, with key areas such as the frame, engine, transmission, and electronic control equipment being the main considerations. Damage to these areas can result in losses of more than 10% of the vehicle, and serious damage can cause losses of more than 30%. Generally, minor scratches and replacement of accessories have little impact on vehicle depreciation. The rollover accident has a greater impact on the car, followed by the frontal collision. Severe collisions have a significant impact on the performance of vehicles, and of course, price reductions are also evident.
Fourth, the influence of maintenance quality factors
Automobile maintenance refers to the maintenance and restoration of the technical performance of automobiles to ensure that they have good usability and reliability. During operation, due to wear and tear, natural corrosion, and other factors, the technical performance of a car will decline. If it is not maintained properly for a long time, not only will the life of the car itself be shortened, but it will also become a major hidden danger that affects traffic safety. If it can be maintained in time and correctly, it will extend the service life of the car and improve its safety performance, which will save money and avoid many troubles of car repair. The impact of maintenance quality on price is the most noteworthy.
