Nio ES5

With the latest spy photos of what is suspected to be the ES5 emerging, the possibility of Nio launching the model this weekend instead of the EC7 cannot be ruled out.

Nio will launch five models in the first half of next year, and by June there will be a total of eight available models, William Li previously said.

The shooting brake models were previously a niche market in China, but the unexpected success of the Zeekr 001 has made such models increasingly popular.
