Like the United States, when it comes to Australia's roads, it is possible to think of straight roads, with spacious cross-country roads, the world's fastest pickup trucks, and Australian muscle cars with engines like the Crazy Max.
According to the latest figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, as of 2017, Australians had 18.8 million cars, or an average of 740 vehicles per 1000 people!
Australians' wages are also high, and the average Australian salary in 2016 was $80196 (409352 yuan) before tax!
In the same period, the major domestic cities, Beijing to 119928 yuan in the first place, Guangdong 72326 yuan!
Compared to the price of the car, because of import duties and other reasons, Australia's car is cheaper!
Like buying a BMW 5-Series sedan, the domestic price is 44.99- six hundred and sixty three thousand nine hundred RMB!
The offer in Australia is $99900 yuan 108460, or 51- five hundred and fifty two thousand nine hundred and ninety nine RMB!
The salary is high, the car is cheap, the Australian street must be everyone ABB (Audi BMW Benz)!
But in fact, if you look closely at the cars driving on the streets of Australia, you will find that the cars driven by Australians are all very ordinary. Japanese cars with water, used cars, although there will also be luxury cars, But the average level is so common that we can't associate it with the imagination of luxury cars all over the world!
And why is that?
It's expensive to repair cars in Australia!
Like Mercedes-Benz BMW Porsche and other luxury brands, it is also the dream of many Australians, but the maintenance costs of Australian cars are really high!
If the car breaks down, the cost of repairing the car will be able to buy another used car!
Manual, technical, time in Australia are very expensive, so the maintenance price of a luxury car far more than the cost of ordinary models, buy luxury cars, can not afford a good saddle! Many Australians still choose Japanese cars that can't drive badly.
Enjoy your life!
Australians know how to enjoy life is well known all over the world, the human nature of eating, drinking and sunbathing is the most perfect expression in Australia!
Australians will never spend all their money on tools when they have money. Instead of spending more than A $100,000 on a car, Australians are more likely to spend A $23,000-$30,000 on a used car and then spend the rest of their money on travel!
Cars are not a tool to show their position.
The car, which is just a vehicle in Australia, seems to value energy efficiency, comfort and vehicle performance more than the luxury of the vehicle.
depreciation
As the saying goes, when the car comes out of the 4s store, it has a 25% discount!
When you buy a A $ one hundred thousand car, you get A $75000 in seconds, and many middle-class families in Australia think owning a luxury car is a discount to their assets.
Depreciation is so costly that more Australians choose to buy used cars, which, of course, are inseparable from Australia's quality-assured used car trading system.
Consumption view
Long wheelbase, big brand, big size, big displacement, big skylight, can take T never self-priming … . These are the "principles" for many Chinese consumers to buy cars!
And Australians in many cases and people are the opposite, like cars because of fuel-saving, like not with T self-suction car, because it is not easy to break, low maintenance costs!
Overall, Australians buy cars more pragmatically, their consumption structure is different from the Chinese, so investment in cars will be reduced.
China's middle class, on the other hand, does not have a mature view of consumption because it does not have a lot of classes to precipitate, and its consumption structure stays only on more basic consumption (better clothes, better meals, better cars).
But with the development of society and the improvement of people's living standard, the concept of automobile consumption will change gradually.
