I-American Automobile Dealers Association ilinganisela ukuthi ukutshalwa kwezimali kwesikhathi esizayo “ezitolo ze-4S” kanye nengqalasizinda yenqwaba yokushaja kulindeleke ukuthi kufinyelele ku-US$5.5 billion.

I-American Automobile Dealers Association ilinganisela ukuthi ukutshalwa kwezimali kwesikhathi esizayo “ezitolo ze-4S” kanye nengqalasizinda yenqwaba yokushaja kulindeleke ukuthi kufinyelele ku-US$5.5 billion.

Kulo nyaka, abathengisi bezimoto abasha baseMelika (abaziwa ezweni njengezitolo ze-4S) bahola ekutshalweni kwezimali engqalasizinda yezimoto zikagesi zase-United States. Noma nini lapho abakhiqizi bememezela isikhathi sokwethulwa kwemikhiqizo emisha, abathengisi bendawo basungula izindlela zemvelo ezisekelayo ezifundeni zabo. Ngokusekelwe kudatha etholakalayo evela kumikhiqizo ethile, i-National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) ilinganisela ukuthi abathengisi baphethe isabelo semakethe esingu-$5.5 billion ekutshalweni kwezimali kanye nokwakhiwa kwengqalasizinda yezimoto zikagesi.

Izidingo zokutshalwa kwezimali ziyahlukahluka kakhulu kuzo zonke izinhlobo zezimoto zaseMelika, ngezindleko ezilinganisiwe zomthengisi ngamunye ezisukela ku-US$100,000 kuya ngaphezulu kwe-US$1 million. Lokhu kutshalwa kwezimali kungenzeka kungahlanganisi ukuthengwa kwemishini ekhethekile edingekayo yokunakekela izimoto zikagesi, noma ukumboza izindleko ezengeziwe ezivela ekwandiseni izintambo zikagesi noma ukufaka ama-transformer, kanye nezindleko zokwakha ezihlobene. Ukufaka amashaja e-United States kudinga ingqalasizinda kagesi ebanzi kakhulu, kufaka phakathi ama-transformer amasha kanye nezintambo zikagesi. Ukufakwa kwalesi silinganiso kungabandakanya izinkampani ezinkulu zokwakha, okuhambisana nezinqubo zemvume, ukubambezeleka kochungechunge lokuhlinzeka, kanye nezidingo zokuphepha kwemvelo - zonke izithiyo abathengisi abalwela ukuzinqoba ngenkuthalo.

Lapho bethenga izimoto e-United States, abathengi balindele abasebenzi bokuthengisa ezitolo noma abeluleki bezentengiso ukuba babanikeze lonke ulwazi abaludingayo, hhayi nje mayelana nokulungiswa kwezimoto ezintsha. Ngenxa yalokho, abathengisi baseMelika nabo bathwala umthwalo wemfanelo wokuhlinzeka abathengi ngolwazi olunembile, olusesikhathini noluphelele mayelana nezimoto zabo. Amanye abathengisi ahlinzeka nangokuqeqeshwa okukhethekile kwezimoto zikagesi kubathengi ukuze bathuthukise ukufakwa kukagesi e-United States. Lokhu kuhlose ukunciphisa ukukhathazeka okuvamile njengokukhathazeka ngebanga nokuqinisekisa ukuthi abathengi benza izinqumo zokuthenga ezinolwazi.UMike Stanton, uMongameli kanye neSikhulu Esiphezulu seNational Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), uthe: 'Ukuthengisa izimoto kubalulekile ekuthengiseni, ekuhlinzekeni, kanye nasekuhlangenwe nakho kobunikazi bezimoto zikagesi. Abathengisi ezweni lonke banesithakazelo ngokufakwa kukagesi.''Ubufakazi busezenzweni zabo: ngale kokutshalwa kwezimali, abathengisi bezimoto kanye nabasebenzi babo bafundisa abathengi, behlanganyela engxoxweni yomuntu ngamunye mayelana nobuchwepheshe obusha nokuthi buzongena kanjani endleleni yokuphila yabantu.' Ababikezeli bemboni batshele i-Reuters ukuthi njengoba isidingo sabathengi bezimoto zikagesi ezihlanzekile sikhula kancane kancane, laba bathengisi baphinde bakhuthaze izimoto ezixubile njengezindlela zokushintsha zamakhasimende okuthengisa nawokuhweba. Lo modeli wamukelwa kalula yiqembu elikhulu lamakhasimende e-US, okufaka isandla ekuvuseleleni intshisekelo yabathengi ezixubileni.Izilinganiso ze-Standard & Poor's zizoba yi-7% kuphela yokuthengiswa kwe-US kulo nyaka, izimoto zikagesi ezihlanzekile zingu-9% kanye nezimoto ze-internal combustion engine (ICE) eziphethe ngaphezu kuka-80%.Idatha yomlando yase-US ikhombisa ukuthi izimoto ezihlanganisiwe azikaze zidlule u-10% wentengo iyonke, kanti i-Prius yakwaToyota ingenye yamamodeli athandwa kakhulu. Ochwepheshe bemboni bakholelwa ukuthi imakethe yezimoto zikagesi zaseMelika izohlala ishintshashintsha kuze kube yilapho inqubo yokukhetha yemvelo iphela, iveze abaholi abasha bemakethe.
