The Four Major Factors Make Chengdu Car "The Third City"


From tens of thousands of dollars in Alto to several million dollars in Rolls Royce and Ferrari, people in Chengdu "take all the money." In the eyes of outsiders, Chengdu is like a huge "car kingdom." Chengdu, this city in the Sichuan Basin, why would it become the “third city of Chinese private cars”? Let us find the answer together. A pragmatic view of car consumption A Chengdu person has lived in a foreign country for a few years. He is still a foreigner, but a foreigner who lives in Chengdu for a few months may become a Chengdu native. With a pleasant climate, tempting cuisine, and a relaxed attitude to life, even if Shanghainese and Shenzhen people who work at a fast pace arrive in Chengdu, he will soon be integrated into the lives of people in Chengdu. Regardless of Chengdu's southeast and northwest, 30 kilometers away from the urban area and a journey of no more than 30 minutes, you can see the mountains and rivers, let the car racers in Chengdu enjoy the sunshine of nature, and unique geographical advantages. People buy cars not only to travel, but to make themselves play better. In terms of model selection, most Chengduers are very pragmatic. They will never “swollen with bumpy faces”. A few tens of thousands of yuan for an economical car can change their quality of life. Why not? Loose car environment The automobile consumer market has become an important pillar of the overall consumer market growth in Chengdu after real estate. To this end, relevant departments are trying their best to reduce the threshold for private car consumption, encourage car consumption, and create a comfortable car environment for the people. Chengdu's private car consumption has superior conditions that many cities cannot match. In major cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, micro-vehicles with a displacement of 1.0 or less are restricted in urban areas, but there are no such restrictions in Chengdu. In the aspect of car purchase, the Chengdu Vehicle Management Department issued a series of convenience measures to simplify various miscellaneous procedures. Under normal circumstances, it can drive in less than an hour. In addition to the bold and advanced consumer awareness of low-cost car use, the low cost of car use is also an important reason for Chengdu's brave consumption. An Alto car user calculated an annual account: the annual road maintenance fee of 1,260 yuan, five-way one-bridge fee of 400 yuan, insurance costs of 1,500 yuan, oil costs of 3,000 yuan, parking fees of 600 yuan, equivalent to the cost of car maintenance every month It's about 550 yuan. Particularly worth mentioning is that compared with many cities, parking in Chengdu is relatively convenient, and the cost is relatively low, which provides convenience for keeping cars and vehicles. Developed transportation network Although many old streets in Chengdu are being reconstructed, the use of underpass tunnels, viaducts, and urban arterial roads has enabled traffic flow in previously congested areas to increase by at least two to three times, greatly improving traffic conditions. In recent years, Chengdu has built the Third Ring Road, Ring Expressway and other major roads, and the total length of urban roads has reached more than 800 kilometers. In addition, Chengdu has the highest density of highways in the country, with all directions from the outskirts of the city highway and Class I highway extending in all directions, providing great convenience for car owners to travel.
