Nio NOP

Nio unveiled NOP in September 2020 and launched the more powerful NOP+ in December 2022.

Nio users have driven a total of nearly 1 billion kilometers using NOP and NOP+ by the end of May.

Nio vehicles on the NT 2.0 platform will be able to choose to turn on the NOP+ feature covering urban roads and highways in the settings after the in-vehicle system is upgraded to Banyan 2.6.0.

Nio said this will be the largest user base for city smart driving in China. All of its NT 2.0 platform-based models support NOP+.

Nio will hold an event on NOP+ on Saturday, April 20, starting at 2 pm Beijing Time, followed by a user communication session, where a timeline for the full rollout of NOP+ is expected to be announced.

Nio said it has reached 307,783 total smart driving users and 193,174 NOP+ users.

Nio began recruiting an additional 20,000 pioneer testers for NOP+, which will be the final user experience event before the feature is pushed out to all car owners.

To date, NOP+ has completed more than 1 million kilometers of road verification, Nio said.

Nio's latest NOP+ could be used outside of Greater China, further demonstrating its algorithm's ability to adapt to different traffic rules and driving scenarios, Morgan Stanley said.

At the end of January, NOP+ reached 651,640 kilometers of urban road coverage in 606 cities.
