購買混合動力車和柴油車可以有很多理由,但省錢并不一定是其中之一。因為很多熱門經濟環?;旌蟿恿嚨氖蹆r和養護成本都要高于同一級別的汽油車,車主往往需要等待好幾年、某些情況下甚至是長達8年的時間才能夠從剩下的油錢中找回差價。

??? 《消費者報告》把雷克薩斯(Lexus)HS 250h油電混動轎車與謳歌(Acura)的TSX基本款進行了對比,后者是一款四缸發動機轎車。謳歌TSX的油耗為每加侖25英里,雷克薩斯HS 250h為每加侖31英里。不過雷克薩斯的售價不到4萬美元,它的五年擁有成本大概在4.45萬美元左右。謳歌TSX的價格約為3.07萬美元,五年擁有成本約為4.1萬美元。由于這兩臺車的燃油經濟性相差不大,因此雷克薩斯HS 250h的車主必須開上8年,才能在擁有成本上戰勝謳歌TSX。不過如果油價飆升到每加侖11.5美元的話,那么這個周期就會縮短成一年——不過那么高的油價實在太恐怖了。

????Consumer Reports compared the Lexus HS 250h gas-electric hybrid against Acura's TSX base model with a four-cylinder engine. The Acura gets 25 miles per gallon, the Lexus 31 miles per gallon. But the Lexus costs just under $40,000 to buy and $44,500 to operate for five years; the Acura costs about $30,700 and $41,000 to operate. Given the fairly narrow advantage the Lexus has in terms of fuel economy, an owner would have to keep the Lexus for more than eight years to overcome the cost disadvantage. If gasoline were to rise to more than $11.50 a gallon -- a dreadful thought, everyone can agree -- the payback period shrinks to one year.

????寶馬(BMW)3系由于其質量、運動性和出色的做工而受到了車主和評測人員的一致褒獎,不過大家很少表揚它的燃油經濟性。現在寶馬3系又推出了一款柴油動力版,名叫335d。它的起價約在5.19萬美元,比汽油動力的328i差不多整整貴了1萬美元,而且養車成本也更高。335d每加侖柴油可以跑28英里,汽油版每加侖能跑23英里。柴油版的經濟性需要在8年后才能超過汽油版。 |

????BMW's 3 Series has won raves from owners and plaudits from reviewers for quality, sportiness and excellent engineering -- but rarely for fuel economy. BMW is offering a diesel-powered variant, dubbed the 335d. The diesel model, starting at about $51,900, represents almost $10,000 more in purchase price than the gasoline powered 328i, and costs more to operate. The diesel gets 28 miles per gallon of fuel, while the gasoline models gets 23 miles per gallon. After eight years of ownership, the diesel starts to be a better deal financially. |
