Niu’s product portfolio encompasses a range of electric scooters, motorcycles, and e-bikes marketed under its NQi, MQi, and UQi series.

In addition to its vehicles, the company offers a digital ecosystem comprised of subscription-based connectivity services, comprehensive after-sales support, and a network of charging and battery-swapping stations in select markets.
While Niu’s primary manufacturing operations are based in China, the company has expanded its distribution footprint across Europe, North America, Latin America, and Australia. Its global sales channels combine online direct-to-consumer platforms with partnerships involving dealerships and local distributors. This dual approach allows Niu to respond to regional regulatory requirements and evolving consumer preferences in urban mobility.
Under the leadership of founder and Chief Executive Officer Gong Dong, Niu Technologies continues to focus on research and development aimed at improving battery performance, vehicle range, and connectivity features.
