Today, the 200,000th production car of NIO was delivered at the Future Delivery Center on both sides of Chongqing. NIO prepared a delivery ceremony for Mr. Yu, the owner:
Production Acceleration, NIO’s Potential is Not Small
- May 27, 2018 – NIO’s first ES8 production car was offline;
- April 7, 2021 – NIO’s 100,000th production car was offline;
- April 26, 2022 – NIO’s 200,000th production car was offline.
From May 2018 to April 2021, NIO achieved a leap from 1 to 100,000 units in three years. It only took one year to reach from 100,000 to 200,000 units, and the growth rate significantly increased.
Meanwhile, NIO’s NeoPark factory located in the Hefei Xinqiao Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industrial Park has completed basic construction and equipment installation. NIO stated that the equipment debugging progress of the factory is progressing smoothly, and the estimated production capacity will be 120,000 units in one shift, 240,000 units in two shifts, and 300,000 units in overtime. ET5 will be put into production here in the third quarter.
Although the sales of NIO have been slightly weak in recent months, NIO’s product line will be further enriched and completed with the upcoming ET5, ES7, and upgraded 866 models. The construction of the new factory has further released NIO’s development potential.
