记者观察:新能源二手车市场信心亟待重构
Zheng Quan Ri Bao Wang· 2025-06-26 13:14
在北京花乡旧车市场,盛夏的热浪与新能源车专区的冷清形成鲜明对比。燃油汽车展区前来看车的消费 者不在少数,而一旁的新能源汽车展位前,却鲜少有人光顾。车商李先生守着几辆贴着"急售"标签的电 动车发愁。"去年38万元收的顶配车,现在挂18万元无人问津,"他指着玻璃窗上一指厚的灰尘道:"买 家怕电池随时报废,我们怕车子烂在手里。" 这一幕正是当下新能源二手车市场的缩影。中国汽车流通协会最新发布的数据显示,今年4月份,新能 源二手车市场渗透率为8.8%,而同期的新能源新车的市场渗透率为47.34%。新旧新能源汽车市场销售 冰火两重天的背后,凸显消费者对新能源二手车信心的缺失。 在笔者看来,消费者对电池衰减的焦虑、技术迭代过快以及检测认证体系的缺失已成为钳制新能源二手 车市场良性发展的关键所在。更深层的市场矛盾根源,实则是产业狂飙突进与配套体系脱节。 国务院印发的《推动大规模设备更新和消费品以旧换新行动方案》明确提出,2027年二手车交易量较 2023年增长45%的目标。二手车交易量的提升,新能源车型无疑扮演着重要角色。今年6月24日,商务 部办公厅发布的《关于组织开展2025年千县万镇新能源汽车消费季活动的通知》中提出 ...
