经过近十年的推广,新能源车(主要指由电力提供动能的车)已经从一个热门话题,到如今出现在了城市的大街小巷,各类新能源车品牌如春笋般拔地而出,竞争也日益白热化。
这不,为了提高在中国的竞争力,特斯拉在今年10月24日又双叒叕宣布降价了,刚提车的车主已经哭晕在厕所......
Tesla slashed the prices of two electric vehicle models rolling out of its Shanghai Gigafactory, as it moved the Model 3 and Model Y down the price range to stay ahead of local competitors after a 30-per cent expansion in production capacity.
特斯拉下调了从其上海超级工厂推出的两款电动汽车的价格,因为在产能扩大 30% 后,它降低了 Model 3 和 Model Y 的价格范围,以保持领先于当地竞争对手。
The entry-level Model 3 was marked down by 5 per cent to 265,900 yuan, while the starting price of the Model Y sports-utility vehicle (SUV) was cut by 8.8 per cent to 316,900 yuan (US$43,720), Tesla said, effective immediately. The Model Y’s long-range edition would be 9.4 per cent cheaper, at 357,900 yuan.
特斯拉表示,入门级 Model 3 降价 5% 至 265,900 元人民币,而 Model Y 运动型多功能车 (SUV) 的起价降低 8.8% 至 316,900 元人民币(43,720 美元),有效立即的。Model Y 的长续航版售价 357,900 元,便宜 9.4%。
电动车 or 燃油车?
随着国内油价的上涨,相信许多小伙伴有认真考虑过入手一辆电动车,省钱环保、噪音小、操作智能、有补贴......虽然现在的电车在技术上无法突破续航短、充电慢的瓶颈,但依然无法阻挡热情的消费者。
In American, the number of all EVs – cars, trucks, vans, and buses – on the road will increase from 10 million today to some 145 million by 2030, forecasts the International Energy Agency. If governments employ incentive programs, that could be much higher, the agency says.
据国际能源署(International Energy Agency)预测,在美国,到2030年,所有电动汽车——轿车、货车、面包车和公共汽车——的数量将从目前的1000万辆增加到约1.45亿辆。国际能源署表示,如果政府实施激励计划,这个数字可能会高得多。
Like many innovations, EVs will enter the market at the top, luxury and specialty vehicles, and work their way toward a mass customer base as costs drop. All the oft-repeated drawbacks – limited driving range, slow recharging, lack of public charging stations – look surmountable in coming years.
与许多创新一样,电动汽车将进入高端、豪华和特种汽车市场,并且随着成本的下降,它们将朝着拥有大量客户群的方向发展。所有经常重复出现的缺点——行驶里程有限、充电缓慢、缺乏公共充电站——看起来都可以在未来几年克服。
As EVs become more desired and trendy, even their resale value may turn into a selling point later this decade, in comparison to what might then be seen as old-fashioned fossil fuel-powered vehicles.
随着电动汽车变得越来越受欢迎和流行,甚至它们的转售价值也可能在本世纪末成为一个卖点——与那时可能会被视为老式的化石燃料动力汽车相比。
重点表达:
EV:Electric Vehicle 的缩写,意思为电动汽车
limited driving range:行驶里程有限
slow recharging:充电缓慢
lack of public charging stations:缺乏公共充电站
