Research on the Trade-In Pricing Strategy of New Energy Vehicle Producers Considering the Consumers' Heterogeneous Behavior
Journal Title: Green and Low-Carbon Economy - Year 2024, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
In practice, trade-ins are offered by new energy vehicle (NEV) producers and include trade-in-for-new fuel vehicles and trade-in-for-NEVs. By using the game-analytical method, we mainly analyze the optimal pricing strategy of NEV producers when they provide both of the above-mentioned trade-in services. The results show that automobile producers should consider the production cost of new vehicles and the trade-in rebate when they provide a trade-in strategy. On the one hand, when the production cost of new vehicles is high but the trade-in rebate is very low, automobile producers do not provide the trade-in service. On the other hand, when the production cost of new vehicles is very low but the trade-in rebate is very high, automobile producers should provide trade-in services to heterogeneous consumers. Moreover, when the heterogeneous behavior of consumers is strong and the innovation value of new-generation fuel vehicles is low, automobile producers should choose the preannounce pricing strategy. Otherwise, these producers should adopt the dynamic pricing strategy.
