With the development of technology, many new energy SUVs nowadays not only meet consumers' demand for low cost of car use, but also integrate the advantages of SUV's passability, space, and intelligence, becoming the ideal choice for many families and urban white-collar workers.

Currently, there are many new energy car brands in the domestic car market, including outstanding ones such as BYD, ORA, CHANGAN, MG, XPENG, ZEEKR, TESLA, and other major brands. These brands not only have many models to choose from in the domestic car market, but also their product quality has been tested over time.


For ordinary consumers, faced with such a dazzling array of products, how to choose a suitable new energy SUV in the car market has become a crucial thing. By sorting out these key points, perhaps we can find the answer.


1. Clarify car purchase demand and budget: Do not blindly loan to buy luxury cars

Firstly, clarify your purpose of buying a car, choosing a car model according to the purpose of buying a car is the right medicine. After clarifying the demand, the next step is to determine an appropriate car purchase budget. Although there are many ways to buy a car with loans now, you can spend tomorrow's money to fulfill today's dreams, but reasonably setting a budget range can select a more suitable car model and avoid unnecessary financial pressure. In the current car market, many consumers pursue face, buy luxury cars with loans, can't bear the cost of car use, and eventually can't repay the loan and are taken back by the bank.


2. Research vehicle types and technology: Choose hybrid or pure electric?

At present, new energy SUVs are mainly divided into pure electric and hybrid SUVs. Pure electric vehicles have zero emissions and are suitable for short-distance travel in cities, with a relatively low cost of travel, mainly depending on the cost of charging; plug-in hybrid vehicles combine the endurance advantage of traditional fuel vehicles with the energy-saving features of electric cars, suitable for long-distance or areas with inadequate charging facilities.

In addition, considerations must be given to battery capacity, energy density, and fast charging technology. Large battery capacity means longer driving range, while efficient fast charging technology can significantly shorten charging time. Regarding the drive system, four-wheel drive systems can greatly enhance the off-road ability and driving stability of SUVs. If the roads you travel on a daily basis are bumpy and rugged, choosing a four-wheel drive model will bring higher passability.


3. Research charging convenience: Important for travel

Driving range is an important indicator to measure the practicality of new energy SUVs, however, based on the current domestic area and travel habits, most pure electric models can meet the needs of long-distance travel. Consumers should consider the convenience of charging, whether there are many public charging piles in their city and its surrounding areas. If the home has fewer charging stations, it may be more suitable to choose a car model with longer range or fast charging support.


4. Need comprehensive test drive before buying

For a car, without experience, it's hard to completely feel its performance, so a test drive before buying becomes very necessary. Taking a test drive is the best way to understand the vehicle's performance, driving feelings, and comfort. Pay attention to the acceleration performance, brake response, suspension tuning and noise control of the vehicle to see if it meets your personal demands for quality and comfort. A car is mainly for driving and riding, it is recommended to test drive several desired models before making a decision.

Finally, choose the appropriate configuration according to your personal preferences, determine after-sales service and warranty policies, and pay attention to the preferential policies of the national and local governments for new energy vehicles, all of which can effectively reduce the cost of car purchase and use. When choosing a car 4S shop, try to go to the mainstream brands to avoid disputes in product quality.


Summary

Choosing a suitable new energy SUV is not an easy task, especially for consumers who don't understand cars, you need to consider the car's needs, budget, vehicle type and technology, power range and charging convenience, test drive experience, and other aspects. Rather than buying a car you regret, do more homework before buying a car, so you can bring more happiness to your life after buying a car.
