ET5 and ES7 add gold exterior option, ET5, ES7 and new ES8 all add front wiper defrost feature.

Nio could bring the ET5 Touring and the new ES6 to European customers at a launch event next week.

The ET5 Touring has arrived at Nio stores and will be available in Nio showrooms on the evening of June 9, and those interested can check it out on June 10, according to a blogger who has been following Nio for a long time.

Nio launched the new ES6 on May 24, though the model is likely still in the process of climbing capacity and not contributing much to sales.

Confirmed orders for the ES6 accounted for 35-40 percent of new orders in May, meaning inflows since the model's launch in the last week of May have been quite meaningful, Morgan Stanley said.

Consumers who lock in their orders for the new ES6 can now expect delivery in about five weeks.

Nio management aims to capitalize on the success of the Zeekr 001, which proves there is a sizeable local market for luxury sporty EV wagons, Deutsche Bank said.

Deutsche Bank expects Nio to report soft results for the first quarter, with downside risk to margins, though some relief in on the way.

Wait times for both the Nio ES7 and ET7 have gone from about 3 weeks to 3-4 weeks.

Nio said it plans to launch a new NT 2.0-based model, the ET5 Touring, which will be delivered to customers starting in June.
