Chapter 159 Test Drive
"Oh my God! This is really great. I have never seen a car that runs so stably, and the speed is so cool!" On an empty road next to the square, several gorgeously dressed teenagers were sitting in the back seat of a Benz One and said happily.
They were all potential customers interested in buying Benz One. After verifying their assets, they naturally obtained the qualification for test driving.
They originally thought that the exaggerated price and performance of Benz One must be false, but they didn't expect that after the test drive and real experience, they realized that the data really would not lie.
Whether it is the comfort and stability of Benz One or the average speed that this car can reach, it makes it a rare excellent car in the American market.
And the price of such a car is cheap compared to other excellent cars, which makes these rich young men curious and excited.
"Sir, is the price of such a car really only $750? Is there really no other cost?" Someone couldn't wait to ask.
The price of $750 is indeed lower than everyone's estimate, which also makes many more cautious people worry about additional consumption.
"Of course it's true. And this is not just the price in the United States. All over the world, as long as it is our official sales point, the price of Benz One will never exceed 750 US dollars." The official introducer in the main driver's seat of Benz One said with a smile.
After hearing what the introducer said, several people in the car looked at each other, as if they had made up their minds, gritted their teeth and said: "Sir, we want to order! One for each person!"
Just from the clothes of these gorgeously dressed teenagers, it can be seen that their family background is extraordinary and they are definitely not from the civilian class in the United States.
This is also the reason why the introducer personally drove them, so that these rich kids can better experience the performance of Benz One and let them lead others to buy.
People are blindly following the crowd, no matter in which aspect. At least thousands of Americans watched the sale site, and among them there are definitely some who are moved by Benz One and even want to buy it.
What they lack is a little courage. In the absence of someone to lead them, they will always have this or that worry.
If someone has purchased before them and has verified it with their own eyes, then their worries will be dissipated a lot, and buying a car can be officially put on the agenda.
"Of course, no problem, I will register for you right away." Seeing that his plan was successful, the introducer smiled and said quickly.
Because of the pioneers, at least in terms of test driving, more and more people signed up to apply, and even a road next to the square could not accommodate them. The employees of the car factory temporarily applied to the New York City government to forcibly clear a road for more people to test drive.
Of course, it cost a lot to get the New York City government to cooperate. Not only did they compensate the New York City government for the loss of up to $6,000, but they also provided the New York City government with at least five Benz Ones for free.
But this is actually a good thing for car sales. After all, the cars equipped by the New York City government are absolutely impeccable in terms of performance.
What are these consumers most worried about now? In addition to worrying about the additional consumption of Benz One, there is also the worry about the specific performance of Benz One.
If the New York City government can be used for free advertising and completely clarify that there is no additional consumption, then will the two consumers' biggest concerns be solved?
"Sir, you should have a repair shop in New York, right? If there are any problems with the car in the future, there must be a place to repair it, right?" The person who was about to sign to buy the car suddenly thought of a key question and asked immediately.
In addition to the high cost and low production of existing cars, another disadvantage is that they are difficult to repair.
This difficulty is not only that the repair fee is particularly expensive, but also because it is manually produced and repaired, the time and complexity of the repair are unimaginable.
Sometimes the repair time of the car can be as long as several months, and sometimes even repairs cannot be done.
If Benz One also has these shortcomings, it may make many people who have been tempted back off.
"Please rest assured, we have a complete automobile production plant in the suburbs of New York City. The production plant is jointly established by Australia and the United States, and has complete automobile production and maintenance technology. All the cars you see are from this factory, and naturally we have the technology to repair these cars. As for the specific maintenance method of the car, you can choose to drive to our car factory or sales point, we will arrange the maintenance immediately, and notify you after the maintenance is completed. Please rest assured that we can guarantee that the longest maintenance time of the car will not exceed two months, and the price of the maintenance is clearly marked." The introducer said with a smile.
After Benz Automobile Factory used the production method of the assembly line, it can basically ensure that the parts produced by the assembly line are basically the same. Although there will be a little deviation between the same parts, it has been improved a lot compared to manual production.
At least the parts can be replaced without difference, which is a huge improvement for automobile maintenance work.
Before, when repairing the car, it was necessary to temporarily produce specific parts. Because each part was slightly different, the difficulty of production was also very great.
But nowadays, repairs generally only require the replacement of parts, which greatly reduces the time required for repairs and also reduces the cost of repairs.
This also solves another major problem of cars, which is the large amount of money required for repairs.
The real reason why cars have become a luxury that only nobles and capitalists can afford is not just the high price of cars. The fuel costs used by the engine, the wear and tear costs of car parts, and the repair costs in case of accidental damage are all additional large expenses. Over time, they can even be equal to the purchase cost of the car.
For some middle-class people, even if they can scrape together money to buy a car, they often go bankrupt due to high repair costs.
This is also the reason why cars were only consumer goods for the rich and nobles before. No one could afford the subsequent high repair and maintenance costs of cars, not to mention that the price of cars is already a huge threshold, blocking most of the low- and middle-income people around the world.
