I just reported on XPENG and NIO sales in December, the 4th quarter, and 2025 as a whole. Both had great — but quite different — years. For several years, more or less since they launched, I’ve tracked the two companies and been struck by how closely their growth lined … [continued]
NIO didn’t have the strongest start to the year in 2025. But it finished with a bang. The last four or five months of the year were huge for NIO. In December, NIO scored 48,135 vehicle deliveries, a 54.6% increase over December 2024. That was also a 32.7% increase month … [continued]
I just wrote about ONVO President Shen Fei torching the idea of extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs). He’s not a fan. However, he had something else much more interesting to say in the interview with The Paper, a Chinese media outlet. ONVO, like its parent NIO, offers battery swapping to owners … [continued]
The debate of the last 15 years rages on. Should automakers just focus on transitioning to fully electric vehicles as quickly as possible, or should they play in the half-electric, half-fossil fuel pool? The Chevy Volt extended-range electric vehicle was released in 2010, a decade and a half ago. It … [continued]
NIO has been on a hot streak the past few months. November sales didn’t continue the trend of setting a new monthly sales record month after month, but it was NIO’s second highest selling month on record. With 36,275 NIO vehicles delivered last month, the company had 76.3% growth over … [continued]
NIO has launched a couple of other brands in the past year and a half in order to keep its sales rising in the hyper-competitive Chinese EV market — the ONVO “family vehicle” brand and the firefly super small vehicle brand. One might have thought the firefly brand would stick … [continued]
NIO achieved record monthly deliveries, barely, in August 2025. Then it increased that significantly in September for a new monthly record. And now we have news that the company crushed that September record with a much higher delivery total in October. In the end, NIO scored 40,397 deliveries, 92.6% more … [continued]
AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS — At NIO’s avante garde showroom at the iconic Metz Building, the cars designed by Kris Tomasson contrast perfectly with the facade of the building and complement its shiny interiors. As the third quarter of 2025 drew to a close, NIO Inc. cemented its accelerating global momentum, announcing … [continued]
NIO has continued to grow. September set a big new monthly sales record for the company, and the 3rd quarter set a big new quarterly sales record for the company. NIO delivered 34,749 vehicles in September across its three brands — NIO, ONVO, and firefly — which was a 64.1% … [continued]
The reviewer starts off by saying the Firefly is about 24,000 euros in Norway, maybe more in other European countries, and that he will not be reviewing battery swapping. The car has its own app, which can be used for charging information and some vehicle settings. The Firefly is described … [continued]
