As a pure electric MPV, Krypton 009 is positioned as a medium and large SUV with a starting price of nearly 500,000 and a very high-end positioning. In terms of product design, configuration and dynamic performance, this car also has different scientific and technological attributes from the traditional MPV, including its broad architecture based on SEA, futuristic front face design, simple and luxurious interior, and 8 155 intelligent cockpit computing platform. 15.6-inch ceiling screen can realize switch access, wireless screen projection and other functions. It is worth noting that the car is also equipped with a 3.4-inch electric sliding door smart lever with a touch screen, which can control the fresh air intelligent air conditioning system, windows and rear sunshade. The soft NAPPA airline seats make millions of people feel luxurious. In terms of power, Krypton 009 adopts the layout of front and rear double motors, with the maximum power of 400kW and the official acceleration time of 0- 100km/h of 4.5 seconds. Automatic air suspension system and CCD electromagnetic vibration reduction system are also standard in the whole department.
In terms of battery and battery life, the current battery capacity of Krypton 009 WE version is 1 16kWh, the comprehensive working range of CLTC is 702km, and the battery capacity of ME version is 140kWh, and the battery life can reach 822km. With Kirin battery, the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle will exceed 1000km. But then the problem comes. What will happen to car maintenance after krypton 009 uses Kirin battery? Let's investigate the cost of this car, mainly focusing on maintenance, insurance and electricity.
Using Kirin battery, the monthly electricity bill is less than 170 yuan?
Before talking about electricity charges, let's take a look at some characteristics and advantages of Kirin battery. Kirin battery mainly improves the battery volume utilization rate from the physical structure. According to reports, the battery pack integration of Kirin battery is the highest in the world. Under the same chemical system and the same battery package size, the power can be increased by 13% compared with that of the 4680 cylindrical battery system, and the overall improvement of battery life, fast charge, safety and low temperature performance has been realized. The 4680 cylindrical battery is the main battery promoted by Tesla at present.
So how big is the energy density of Kirin battery? According to Amperex Technology Co., Ltd., the volume utilization rate of Kirin battery has exceeded 72%, the energy density of ternary battery can reach 255Wh/kg, and the energy density of lithium iron phosphate battery system can reach 160Wh/kg. In contrast, the energy density of the ternary lithium battery of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd. equipped with the 100kWh version of Weilai ET5 is 185Wh/kg, and the energy density of the lithium iron phosphate leaf battery equipped with BYD Korea is 150Wh/kg. It is worth noting that the Kirin battery used in the 140kWh battery pack of the new Krypton 00 1 km battery pack is the same as that of the Krypton 009, with an energy density of 200Wh/kg, and the servicing quality of the corresponding Krypton 00 1 km battery pack has not been greatly improved compared with the ordinary version, and the officially announced 100 km power consumption is even close to that of the ordinary two-wheel drive version. This also means that after Ky- Kr 009 is equipped with Kirin battery, the vehicle kerb quality will not be significantly improved, and the power consumption is expected to remain at the current WE version of 18.3kWh/ 100 km. We calculate the electricity charge according to the current household electricity consumption of about 0.56 yuan/kWh. Krypton gas travels 60000km for three years in 009. The total electricity bill is 6 149 yuan, and the average monthly electricity bill is about 170 yuan, which is quite cheap. And if the regular version uses Kirin battery, the electricity cost is expected to be lower.
The car price is nearly 500 thousand, and the first year premium is about 654.38+0.5 thousand yuan.
The average selling price of Krypton 009 is around 500,000. In addition, according to our investigation, after purchasing 3 million three liability insurance, car damage insurance and compulsory insurance, the first year premium of this car is about 1.5 million yuan. Of course, if there is no accident in the later use, the subsequent premium will be further reduced. We will calculate the standard premium at 20% in the second year and 70% in the third year. In 2009, the total cost of insurance in Kyrgyzstan for three years was about 37,500 yuan, with an average of about12,500 yuan a year (the actual insurance price will be affected by the insured area, insurance items and different insurance companies).
The maintenance cycle is quite long. Is it expensive to maintain 900 yuan for one year?
Krypton 009 and Krypton 00 1 both come from the vast architecture of the sea, and there are two motor versions before and after 400kW. According to our previous investigation, it is estimated that the first maintenance time of Krypton 009 is 3000km or 6 months, and three power systems need to be inspected, and then the maintenance interval is 20000km or 12 months. Air conditioning filter needs to be replaced every 10000km or 6 months, and the cost is around 540 yuan. We calculate the total maintenance cost of Krypton 009 based on the cycle of the average family driving 60000km for three years, which is about 2,700 yuan, with an average annual 900 yuan. Obviously, this is close to the maintenance price of most pure electric vehicles and very cheap.
Conclusion:
Adding up the above estimated maintenance costs, insurance costs and electricity charges, we can calculate that the cost of driving a Kirin battery car for 60000km in three years is about 46,000 yuan, with an average of about 1.5 million yuan per year and an average of about 1.287 yuan per month. Generally speaking, compared with the previous practice of blindly accumulating high battery pack energy to improve cruising range, the use of Kirin battery in Krypton 009 is bound to fundamentally improve battery utilization, which can not only ensure long battery life, but also save more electricity without adding too much weight. Maintaining a car only costs about 654.38+0.5 million yuan a year, which is quite economical for a high-end MPV of nearly 500 thousand.
