Nio (NYSE: NIO) continued to see strong deliveries last month, albeit with a slight dip from July.
The electric vehicle (EV) maker delivered 20,176 vehicles in August, the fourth straight month above the 20,000 mark, according to data it released today.
That was up 4.38 percent from 19,329 a year earlier, but down 1.57 percent from 20,498 in July.
The company's SUV (sport utility vehicle) deliveries were stable in August at 11,923 compared to 11,964 in July, while sedan deliveries were at 8,253, down 3.29 percent from 8,534 in July.
In the January-August period, Nio delivered 128,100 vehicles, up 35.77 percent year-on-year, according to data compiled by CnEVPost.
Its SUV models delivered 74,258 units so far this year, up 57.99 percent year-on-year, contributing 57.97 percent of its total deliveries this year.
Sedan models have delivered 53,842 vehicles so far this year, up 13.71 percent year-on-year, contributing 42.03 percent.
At the end of August, Nio's cumulative deliveries since inception stood at 577,694.
Nio currently has eight models on sale -- ES8, ES7, ES6, EC7, EC6, ET7, ET5, ET5 Touring -- of which the first five are SUVs and the last three are sedans.
It unveiled the ET9 last December, and deliveries of the executive flagship sedan will begin in the first quarter of 2025.
The EV maker gave the debut of its sub-brand Onvo's first model, the L60, on May 15, with the model's official launch set for later this month.
Onvo's first 105 stores opened today in 55 cities across China. General consumers will be able to experience the Onvo L60 up close for the first time, especially with the vehicle system NT.Coconut, which was officially announced yesterday.
The Onvo L60 became available for pre-order on May 15, with a pre-sale price of RMB 219,900 ($31,010) including the battery, which is RMB 30,000 less than Tesla's (NASDAQ: TSLA) Model Y.
In addition to Onvo, Nio will also launch a third brand, internally codenamed Firefly, to target the lower-priced market.
The Nio main brand targets the premium market priced at RMB 300,000 and above, while Onvo targets the mass market priced between RMB 200,000 and RMB 300,000.
The first model of Firefly is expected to be ready by the end of this year, and the smart driving system will be based on a vendor-supplied solution, local media outlet TMT Post reported on August 30.
Firefly's first model falls between a small SUV and a compact SUV, the report said.
