In recent years, thanks to the policy, technology and other factors, new energy vehicles have a strong momentum and gradually become the first choice of new car buyers. In the wave of electrification and intellectualization, the Internet automobile aftermarket service platform People's Car Service is moving with the situation. Relying on the advantages of a three-tier service network covering 17 provinces and municipalities directly under the Central Government, it actively lays out the independent after-sales field of new energy vehicles, establishes urban maintenance centers for new energy vehicles, and fills in the deficiencies of new energy vehicles in the service system of third, fourth and fifth tier cities.

Statistics from the Ministry of Public Security show that the number of newly registered new energy vehicles will increase from 650000 in 2017 to 2.95 million in 2021, and the sales of new energy vehicles will grow at a high speed. This poses a severe test for the after-sales service of new energy vehicles. Whether the domestic automotive aftermarket system can support the rapid growth of new energy vehicles has become a common concern of the industry and consumers.
It is understood that the failures of new energy vehicles mainly focus on the "three electricity" of battery, motor and electronic control. At present, due to the requirement of safety, most brand manufacturers of new energy vehicles implement the strategy of "only replacement without repair". When core spare parts have problems, the manufacturer provides replacement. This method is acceptable to car owners in first tier and second tier cities, but due to the high maintenance costs, car owners in third tier, fourth tier and fifth tier cities do not have a high acceptance. Once the vehicle has problems outside the warranty period, the high maintenance costs will become a heavy burden for them. Electric vehicle charging pile
At the same time, the state has clear regulations on the storage, transportation and recovery of core spare parts for new energy vehicles. The automobile maintenance enterprises in low tier cities have a long service cycle due to limited warehousing and logistics capabilities and high stocking costs. From the application of spare parts to installation, there will be a long waiting period and deployment period, and the maintenance time will take weeks or even months. According to public data, among the top ten cities for new energy vehicles, nine are first tier and second tier cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Zhengzhou and Suzhou. The selected third tier and fourth tier city Liuzhou is also the production site of "Shenche" Wuling Hongguang, which shows that there is still huge room for market penetration in low tier cities.
In addition, New energy vehicle maintenance Maintenance also puts forward higher requirements for personnel, site and equipment. For example, the voltage of new energy vehicles is often as high as hundreds of volts, which belongs to unsafe voltage, and they need to hold a national certified electrician professional qualification certificate to work; For another example, there are also differences in the standards for new energy vehicle maintenance stations, including requirements for voltage, current, insulation and ground glue.
