As early as a month ago, Mercedes-Benz G 350 real car was photographed in Beijing real time, I once sent an article, in which analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of G 350 series for everyone, interested friends can click the portal read “2.0T upcoming G-class, Mercedes-Benz is the conscience of the price, or consumption really fragrant warning persons? “I think it was the price of the G 350 it is, at most 1 million succeed, but after last night, G 350 officially listed in Dunhuang, pricing direct to refresh my knowledge of the G series.
G 350 new price 1,429,800 yuan, the most fundamental change is the liter V8 from the original 4.0, for four-cylinder engine to 2.0T, the maximum horsepower 258, peak torque of 370 Nm middot; m, 9-speed manual gearbox matching hundred kilometers 8 seconds. The rest is basically some minor changes in terms of appearance, Taobao basically can be solved. As three locks, four-wheel drive, Berlin stereo sound, so a series of double-screen configuration, G 350 is not diminished at all.
In fact, for models itself, in the last article I have put in some detail, and today we will explore in depth for the price.
which published 1,429,800 is just the manufacturer’s suggested retail price, all year round for a car of this class G hard to find models, the dealer level of increase has been the industry’s unspoken rules, so dealers We are willing to accept the manufacturer’s instructions, set the price to 1.4298 million yuan, which is another matter, according to the current major Mercedes-Benz sales revealed the news in a circle of friends can see the first models also need to increase at least 40 -50 million, so that if you want to get the key to a G 350, it would have at least 2 million + price.
As dealers increase to mention cars, mostly market behavior, so we do not do too much discussion in the end is right or wrong, we will first look at the manufacturer’s directions price level, G 350 only cheaper than most ofG 500 less than 20 million, but less than half but on the number of cylinders and displacement of it, and for the engine, four-cylinder and eight-cylinder gap between the actual experience of relationship is not a multiple, but the relationship between the index.
First of all first look at G 500, we have the official guide price 1,628,800 to count, plus about 160,000 luxury car tax and assorted expenses, floor price of about 1.9 million, of course this does not count car dealer on the price increase to mention.
and G 350 due to the displacement dropped by half, it is to reduce various taxes and fees attendant, because we do not know the price of the G-Class in China’s declaration how much, you can only sell abroad at prices as a reference model.
G 500 excluding tax in Germany, priced at about 80 million, just GLE have both 2.0T and 4.0T version of the model in Germany, both of which a difference of about 100,000 yuan, so we for the time being will be G 350 declaration set the price of 70 million yuan.
As the luxury car tax our country needs to impose tariffs on imported cars, 10 percentage of the consumption tax, value added tax, as well as more than 1.3 million cars, and after a series of calculated the G 350 tax amount of approximately 250,000, and the tax amount of approximately 730 000 G 500, both of which are only on taxes on the difference of 48 million, but reflected in the guidance, but only a thin 200,000 yuan.
and which did not include the replacement cost reduction caused by the engine, so the G 350, the displacement caused by reduced tax benefits and cost reduction, there is no practical implementation to consumers, which means that if a simple calculation nude car price, then the price should be G 350 G 500 cheaper than the approximately 50-60 million and is considered a relatively reasonable price cut.
Some would say that G 500 800 000 increase to mention cars, G 350 500 000 increase to mention cars, middle short of the 300,000 it. Suffice it to say that the increase to mention cars illnesses, and who used to come out of it?
at this stage of the G 350 2.0T, it is not so that more people can afford to open the G-Class, but rather to set up a G 500 irresistible price anchor. 2.0T G-Class were sold 1.42 million, so why not add a little money to buy 4.0T it? 2 million of the purchase price have been spent, but also care about the 200,000 engine upgrade it? Even to mention the car G 500 higher fare, but after all, the displacement of the matter, the latter can not pass the upgrade.
However, Mercedes-Benz also thought of this, so on the Mercedes-Benz product serial 2021, the G 500 has been discontinued, so that now borrow money to buy a G 500 words, not a loss of things, and by virtue of G-class ultra-high hedge rate or the rate of appreciation, to open three to five years and then sell resale, at most, that is now lost a Camry price only.
3000000 landing 4.0TG level and 2.5 million landing 2.0TG level, the G-class can afford the eyes of view, which to me today noon to eat steamed mutton or not to add portions of meat makes no difference. For the fact 2.0T model itself is not any disadvantages, but once 4.0T prices in contrast, the 2.0T can bring the advantage is gone.
summary
In fact, for Mercedes-Benz, we want to increase sales of the G-Class, so no need to fuss, launched a home-made G 180 model can , still follow the appearance of the shell G 500, using 1.3T + 48V mild hybrid powertrain, precursor to cancel the four-wheel drive, three lock cancel, the sound was changed BENZ. I said the number: 600 000! Now the car! Understand applause!
