New selling price of Hyundai Santa Fe applies from October 6 (Unit: Dong).

And for those who buy Hyundai Santa Fe cars from 2022, knowing that the price goes up or down depends on market demand and It’s your own decision, but according to some customers, this adjustment is considered a second “pain”.

Mr. Nguyen Duc Hiep (living in Hai Ba Trung, Hanoi) is an example. . Last September, he bought a high-end Santa Fe Oil version with a final cost of 1,65 billion VND. The price of the car at that time was 1,37 billion VND, the other expenses were registration fees and accessories that had to be purchased.

“At that time, Santa Fe was still quite short on goods. If you want to receive the car early, then I have to buy an accessory package worth nearly 100 million VND. The registration fee in Hanoi is still 12% of the car’s value, another 165 million VND, plus license plate fees and other expenses,” Mr. Hiep shared.</ p>

In 2023, the supply There are more cars than the purchasing power of Santa Fe. There is no longer the “beer with peanuts” situation and the dealer even offers a discount of hundreds of millions of dong. I know that if I buy a car early, I will enjoy it early, but thinking back, I still feel sorry because in just a few months I have already lost hundreds of millions of dong,” he said.

And now, with the company adjusting the price, it has reduced to 176 million VND plus the Government’s policy of reducing registration fees by 50% for “domestic” cars, the amount of money to roll a Premium Diesel Hyundai Santa Fe in Hanoi is about 13 billion VND, about 350 million VND cheaper than at the time Mr. Hiep bought the car 1 year ago.

Meanwhile, high-end 2022 Santa Fe Diesels with Hanoi license plates are being sold on market Used cars cost about 1 1-1 15 billion VND. That’s the price the showroom sells, but the car they imported was only about 950 million VND even though it was still very new because it had less than 20,000 km,” the car owner added.

Mr. Hiep calculated if he sold it. At the present time, he costs about 700 million VND for 1 year of use. Still know cars are a commodity, but I don’t think that even the famous Santa Fe that keeps its price is no different from the market’s rules. Every day, the car “flys” 2 million dong regardless fuel and maintenance fees…” he said.

Experts believe that TC Motor is adjusting the proposed retail price of Hyundai Santa Fe to separate it from the new Palisade model launched in September. (price from 1,469-1,589 billion VND). If the old price remains (highest up to 1,45 billion VND), Vietnamese customers may skip Santa Fe to go straight to Palisade.

Another reason is that the entire car market in Vietnam recorded weak purchasing power, almost every product was discounted, so Hyundai Thanh Cong no exceptions. If domestically produced and assembled cars decrease by a few dozen to about 200 million VND, recorded a decrease of several hundred million to half a billion dong.

For example, the popular car model in the C-class crossover segment, the Mazda CX-5, had a mid-life upgrade in early July. But the most notable change is is the selling price when Thaco reduces it by up to 90 million VND compared to the old model. The new price from 749 million VND is as cheap as a B-class SUV like the Hyundai Creta (highest 740 million VND).

In addition to the Santa Fe, the CX-5’s competitor, the Tucson, has also had its suggested retail price adjusted. from October 6. Hyundai’s car model has the biggest discount of 191 million VND, starting from 769 million VND, which is still a bit higher than the standard version of the CX-5 but may also receive additional promotions at the dealer.
