Nio is filming promotional videos for the ET5 touring in Norway, and leaked images show more details of the model.
More images of the Nio (NYSE: NIO) ET5 touring have been revealed, as the model gets closer to its official launch.
Auto blogger Delu shared several images of the model on the Nio App today, saying that Nio is filming promotional videos for the model in Norway.
"This is one of the top three touring models in my mind, they are the Volvo V60, Audi RS6 and now the ET5 Touring," the blogger wrote.
On May 9, CnEVPost obtained two spy photos of the ET5 touring appearing on the streets of Europe, showing that the car has the yellow color exclusive to the ET5 sedan sold in China.
CnEVPost has learned from a source is that the model is expected to make its official debut in Europe in June.
In January, Nio co-founder and president Qin Lihong said the company would launch the ET5 touring, a sister model of the ET5, in June or July.
That new variant of the ET5 will debut in Europe, where the model was developed primarily for European consumers, Qin said at the time.
Such models have a large market in Europe, while sales of sedans are low, which is the opposite of the situation in China, Qin said at the January event.
"Derivatives of sedans are a niche market in China, but the opposite is true in Europe. We don't see many real sedans in Europe," he said at the time.
In early March, the ET5 touring appeared on a filing list from Chinese industry regulators and its key specifications were revealed.
The Nio ET5 touring has a length, width and height of 4,790 mm, 1,960 mm and 1,499 mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2,888 mm, in line with the ET5 sedan.
It will be equipped with dual motors produced by Nio's electric drive systems division in Hefei, Anhui province, with a maximum power of 150 kW and 210 kW, respectively, and can support a top speed of 200 km/h.
As with several other Nio models based on the NT 2.0 platform, the Nio ET5 touring supports the option of a retractable electric tow hook, which can tow a maximum of 1,400 kg of caravan weight.
