Battery supply at some swap stations will be impacted in the short term, with Nio offering charging subsidies to new ES8 owners.

This means Firefly has delivered 5,445 units so far this month, on track to set a new record for September deliveries.

Sources at the facility said that Nio is working around the clock to ramp up production capacity for the all-new ES8.

Nio, Xiaomi EV, Xpeng, and Leapmotor are all poised to hit new highs, while Li Auto is set to continue its year-on-year decline.

The Nio main brand had 2,580 insurance registrations last week, Onvo 2,780, and Firefly 1,310.

Chinese customers ordering the all-new ES8 now can expect deliveries 24-26 weeks after order confirmation.

In overseas markets, Nio will also collaborate with partners to build battery swap stations to reduce spending.

Nio began deliveries of the new ES8 today, assuring customers this year's orders will enjoy the same tax reduction, even if deliveries are delayed until next year.

This reality has prompted Nio management to rethink the need for a more thorough understanding of customer needs.
