In the car circle, BEVs have a certain disdain for hybrid models. This attitude is mainly due to the pride of EV owners in electric vehicles and their belief that EVs are the trend of the future. For example, Li Bin once said, "I don't understand why everyone still buys fuel vehicles, is it to smell some gasoline?".", revealing his position of more identification with pure electric vehicles. In fact, many EV owners also believe that only pure electric vehicles are the future development direction, while hybrid and fuel models are regarded as backward and low-level options. This view is quite common in the current market, where many consumers either buy pure electric vehicles outright or choose gasoline vehicles, and take a wait-and-see attitude towards hybrid models.
There are two main reasons why BEVs have a negative attitude towards hybrid models. First of all, pure electric vehicles do not need to be refueled, which is convenient to charge and more environmentally friendly, which is in line with the current society's demand for reducing exhaust emissions. Secondly, with the continuous improvement of charging facilities, pure electric vehicles have been greatly improved in terms of cruising range and charging efficiency, making pure electric vehicles a viable travel option. As a result, EV owners are not optimistic about the sustainability and environmental friendliness of hybrid vehicles.
Plug-in hybrid models are degraded in the rim to range extender models. This attitude stems from the technical advantages of plug-in hybrid models over range-extender models and the diverse choice of drive modes. Plug-in hybrid models can not only achieve pure electric driving, but also choose between hybrid mode and direct engine drive mode, giving drivers more flexibility to choose the appropriate mode of travel. The range-extender model, on the other hand, can only provide electricity to the electric vehicle through a generator, and cannot directly participate in the drive. The diversity and sophistication of plug-in hybrid models have led some consumers to have a low evaluation of extended-range models.
In addition, the attitude of the extended-range model to disdain all models is also due to its technical simplicity and low failure rate compared to other models. Compared with plug-in hybrid models, the technical threshold of the extended-range model is lower, and the failure rate is relatively low. Plug-in hybrid models, on the other hand, are more technically complex, and the range is not as good as that of the range extender. As a result, range-extender models are considered to surpass plug-in hybrid models in terms of technology, performance, and range, and therefore have a disparaging attitude towards plug-in hybrid models.
The extended-range model has a confident attitude in the rim that considers itself to be the most user-friendly car on the current market. The extended-range model not only has a better overall range, capable of exceeding 1,000 kilometers in hybrid mode, but also performs well in sales. Some new car-making forces, such as Li Auto and WM Motor, have adopted range extender technology and have achieved good market reputation and sales performance. In contrast, plug-in hybrids, although more flexible, are not as optimistic as those with extended ranges. As a result, the range extender model is demeaning to all other models.
The view that the range extender model is depreciating other models stems from the following aspects. First of all, the extended-range model has better environmental performance than fuel vehicles, and is regarded as a representative of new energy vehicles. Secondly, the extended-range model has simple technology and relatively low failure rate, which makes it more reliable and stable. At the same time, the extended-range model is also loved by consumers because of its comprehensive range and ability to adapt to different road conditions. As a result, the extended-range model considers itself the car that best meets the needs of current users, with a disparaging attitude towards other types of models.
The chain of contempt in the rim exists between different types of cars. Pure electric vehicles devalue hybrid vehicles, believing that hybrid vehicles are relatively backward and do not meet the future development trend. Plug-in hybrid vehicles depreciate range extender vehicles, believing that range extender technology is simple, not as advanced and flexible as plug-in hybrids. The range extender devalues all other models, believing that they are superior to others in terms of performance, reliability, and sales performance.
In the rim, the chain of contempt is inevitable. Different types of cars have their own strengths and characteristics, which leads to a mutually demeaning attitude. However, the development of automotive technology and the changing needs of consumers are also driving the progress of the automotive industry. Whether it is an electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle or a range extender vehicle, each model has its own market and consumer group. For consumers, choosing a car that suits their travel needs and preferences is the most important thing. The existence of the chain of contempt is only a presentation of opinions, and does not determine the direction and future of the automobile.
With the continuous progress of science and technology and the enhancement of green travel awareness, the automotive industry will pay more and more attention to environmental performance and sustainable development in the future. Various technical solutions such as pure electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and range extender vehicles will gain a place in the market. Consumers need to understand the advantages and disadvantages of different types of vehicles and choose based on their actual needs. Only by objectively evaluating the performance and suitability of the vehicle can you find the most suitable mode of travel. In the future, the technology and products of the automotive industry will continue to innovate and evolve to provide users with a better travel experience and more environmentally friendly travel options.
