When choosing a new car, practical drivers evaluate not only its appearance, technical characteristics and equipment, but also future prospects: maintenance and service costs, resale losses in the secondary market. So what kind of “Chinese” to take, so that later, in a few years, it is profitable to get rid of it? The answer to this question is in the latest ranking of the residual value of the “heavenly” crossovers.
Why are only crossovers included in the rating? Probably because the experts of the Avtostat agency included three-year-old cars in their review, and in 2020 the Chinese officially did not sell sedans, liftbacks and other “cars” that are present in the domestic market in our country today.
Be that as it may, the Changan CS35 Plus with a 1.6-liter engine and “mechanics” became the Chinese crossover with the best residual value in the second quarter of 2023. The price comparison index is 152.9%. That is, the owners of cars purchased in April-June 2020 can resell them today on the “secondary market” at a price one and a half times higher than the original price.
On the second line of the rating is the Chery Tiggo 4 with two pedals and a 2.0 liter engine. The residual value of this model is 144%. Not far with a result of 140.4%, Geely left Coolray, equipped with a 1.5-liter engine and a robot transmission. It was he who took the honorable third place.
It remains only to add that the authors of the study themselves attribute such high results to the sharp rise in prices that we have observed over the past two years. Therefore, do not deceive yourself: today most of the relatively fresh models can boast of the same or even more impressive performance. But of the Chinese crossovers, these are the best.
