On-road extras: purchase tax ≈ 17,699 CNY (fuel cars, price÷1.13×10%; NEVs exempt through 2025, capped) + insurance + registration. Budget ≈ 85,699 upfront.

💡 "Zero APR" offers often add a financing fee (e.g. 3000 CNY) — divide it by the loan to see the hidden rate. Equal principal saves interest but needs higher early cash flow.
