On June 1, the first national standard of China's automobile circulation industry, "Technical Specification for Appraisal and Evaluation of Used Vehicles" (hereinafter referred to as "Specifications") was officially implemented.
As the first national standard for the evaluation of used cars in China, will this mean that used car trading has entered a new era? Or will it only end up in "formalism"?
Some experts predict that the scale of China's used car market will reach 10 million in 2015. Faced with such a huge used car trading market, the "Specifications" is imperative, but the effect is still to be tested by many parties.
The Code was finally implemented
Evaluation has more rules
Perhaps because the official implementation of the "Regulations" is in the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, coupled with the impact of the restrictions on the policy, the focus on the Hangzhou car circle is not particularly high. In the view of Liu Chen, who has been engaged in the used car evaluation industry for many years, this "norm" containing nearly 100 regulations may affect the re-layout of the next used car market.
"For example, if you take the qualification of a second-hand car appraisal and evaluation agency, you can sell used cars as long as you rent a booth. Some oxen don't even use the second-hand car business in the booth. According to the new regulations, used cars. The appraisal and evaluation agency shall have the conditions of a business area of ​​not less than 200 square meters, more than 3 second-hand car appraisers and more than one senior appraisal appraiser, and must have car lift, vehicle fault information reading, and vehicle structure size. Equipment such as inspection, vehicle appearance defect measurement, paint surface thickness inspection, etc. Only the evaluation institution with the above conditions gives the "Used Vehicle Technical Status Table", which has legal effect." According to Liu Chen, it is currently available in Hangzhou. There are only a handful of evaluation agencies for the conditions, and more are small-scale second-hand car dealers. If the "Regulations" are strictly enforced, the living space of these second-hand car merchants will be severely squeezed.
In addition, the reporter also noted that the "Specifications" clearly stipulate that the evaluation results of used cars need to be presented in the form of a "Second-hand Vehicle Technology Status Sheet". This form will contain a large number of technical test results on the vehicle, including body inspection, engine compartment, cockpit, chassis, vehicle start-up, road test and other 104 inspection contents. This technical status sheet will be used as a used car transaction contract. annex.
During the vehicle exhibition period, the "Used Vehicle Technology Status Sheet" will be used as the vehicle's identification certificate and placed in the lower left of the front windshield of the cab, which has legal effect. In the event that the vehicle condition does not match the description, the consumer can use this as a basis for rights protection. In other words, even if you don't understand the car, you can check out the technical status sheet, which is enough for you to have a good understanding of the car.
At present, the common practice of most used car dealers is to place some rough information on similar models, time on board, price, etc. on the front windshield of the vehicle cab. Other contents are all based on verbal communication, and there is no evidence at all. In contrast, consumers are certainly looking forward to the upcoming state of the art.
It can be seen that the "Specifications" have improved the entry barriers of used car evaluation agencies to a certain extent, and at the same time provided consumers with more reliable protection.
Industry response "slow"
Currently no technical status table
What is the condition of a used car? How much can a used car sell? A thousand used car dealers may have a thousand different claims.
On the one hand, the entry barriers of the used car industry are low, and the professional level of the employees is uneven. The evaluation of used cars is often based on experience and is estimated by Mao. Therefore, thousands of people have different opinions. On the other hand, for those consumers who do not understand the car at all, it is often very easy for some bad second-hand car dealers to change the mileage and cover up the truth of the accident car. The introduction of the "Specifications" is aimed at such industry chaos.
But after the official implementation on June 1, what changes has it brought to the used car industry?
"The second-hand car dealers I know are divided into two parts. Those who sell cars to the whole country will pay more attention to the standards that are now being implemented, but those who only do local business have no idea about this norm."
Yang Qing, the general manager of China's second-hand car network, knows a large number of domestic second-hand car dealers. In his view, those business partners who do the national circulation of used cars care more about the "norms." They studied the Code early, and hoped that the unified "measures and measures" would provide more convenience for the future sale of used cars in the country. In the future, if you use used cars, you don't have to go to the car to see the car, as long as the other party provides a technology. The status table shows the condition of the car, so that the acquisition of a car can save thousands of dollars in travel expenses.
In contrast, if you only do local business, you can simply realize the business of seeing the car on the spot. Little is known about this Code. They think that it is too troublesome to evaluate the vehicle according to the Code, and some even do not understand it at all. What is the "norm".
"You are going to the Auto City now. Where did someone put the "Used Car Technology Status Sheet"?" Lao He, who has been operating luxury used cars for many years, told reporters that although the "Specifications" have been officially implemented on June 1, it is really working. I think it will take a long time. He said: "According to the current regulations, many used car dealers are not qualified to issue technical status sheets, and professional second-hand car appraisers also need training. These take time. Let us take a step back and say that even if we are willing to find a professional The evaluation agency helped us evaluate, what is the cost? There is no concept at all."
Meaning "Let's better than nothing"
Unified standards will be the future trend
Although there are many doubts about the promotion of the "Specifications," its role is always "speak better than nothing."
As Yang Qing said, the Code brings certain guiding significance, for example, it has a clear definition of some problems that were vague and lack clear definition.
For example, before we said that we did not know what kind of accident car, some people think that the beam was injured, even if it is an accident car, some people think that the engine has been injured in the accident car, some people may feel that the car door has been injured, even the accident car, everyone is one The perceptual knowledge of the word. But now there is a definition in the "Specifications". According to its definition, how much money has been repaired, and which parts have been damaged is an accident car, so that no one is arrogant.
Regarding the future of the "normative", some people think that the main reason is that it does not require enforcement, which obviously gives the practitioners a lot of room to swing. But in any case, the standardization of used car management is bound to be the trend of future development.
First of all, domestic used car transactions are no longer confined to one region, and transactions across provinces and cities are very common. Previously used car dealers often only know the car condition by looking at the car on the spot, which adds a lot of transaction costs. However, with a unified industry standard, car dealers can completely refer to the technical status table, eliminating the need to see the car in the field.
In addition, as the average consumer's acceptance of used cars is getting higher and higher, for them, the biggest concern for buying used cars is to worry about the car's fraud. Uniform industry norms and professional assessment standards can reduce their concerns and further promote used car transactions. With an authoritative list of technical conditions, their consumption has a reliable guarantee.
In fact, in the more mature market of the used car industry, a uniform set of used car appraisal evaluation criteria is indispensable. It is also a common practice to provide assessment data by professional second-hand vehicle appraisal and evaluation agencies. This approach makes the definition of used car operators more clear. They no longer estimate cars and sell cars as they do now, thus increasing consumers' trust in used cars.
For the implementation of the "Code", the industry also believes that it is likely to lead to the emergence of future industry alliances. Through such industry alliances, we will promote unified evaluation standards and evaluate charging standards. Entering the alliance will be regarded as a kind of "qualification", which will bring extra points in the integrity. Undoubtedly, as a result, standardized and professional second-hand car companies will usher in a more solid living space.
