When announcing the progress of ET manufacturing, Nio released several images of the model in Cloud White.
Luminous Orange was inspired by Tonga, an island nation in the South Pacific that straddles the eastern and western hemispheres and was the first place in the world to see the sun.
The color has a warm orange tone, complemented by white highlights for a sophisticated metallic feel, showing passion with a modern and premium feel.
Arctic Green is inspired by the color of the aurora borealis in the night sky of Tromsø, Norway. The understated and unmistakable green color of the aurora borealis interprets the mystery and vitality from the Arctic Circle.
Sunrise Beige is inspired by the early morning sky of Valencia, Spain, a color between gray and white. The low saturation gives it a warm tone that jumps out from the metallic feeling, restoring the shimmering light when the sky is about to dawn.
In addition to these three new exterior colors, ET7 supports four classic colorways, including Cloud White inspired by the Alps, Deep Black representing the Atacama Desert night sky in Chile, Star Gray from the Ayers Rock galaxy in Australia, and Southern Star in Antarctica.
ET7 will be delivered in the first quarter of 2022 with a pre-subsidy price tag of RMB 448,000 ($69,100) to RMB 506,000 and is available in three models with 70kWh, 100kWh and 150kWh battery packs.
The ET7 has an NEDC range of up to 1,000km and is positioned as a luxury mid-size electric vehicle, competing with the Tesla Model S and Audi A7.
