NIO Inc. is a pioneer in the premium electric vehicle (EV) segment, dedicated to the design, development and manufacture of smart, high-performance EVs. Established in November 2014 and headquartered in Shanghai, China, the company focuses on integrating cutting-edge electric propulsion, advanced connectivity and autonomous driving technologies into its automotive platforms. NIO’s vision centers on creating a holistic user experience that extends beyond the vehicle itself, encompassing energy services and digital solutions.

The company’s product lineup includes flagship SUVs and sedans such as the ES8, ES6, EC6, ET7 and ET5, each engineered to deliver strong performance, long range and a suite of intelligent driver-assistance features. NIO differentiates itself through its Battery as a Service (BaaS) program, which allows customers to subscribe to battery packs separately from the vehicle, and through an extensive network of battery-swap stations that enable rapid energy replenishment in minutes. Complementary offerings include home charging equipment, mobile charging vans and a proprietary infotainment system designed to foster a community of owners and enhance the ownership experience.

Since its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange in September 2018, NIO has pursued rapid growth in both its product portfolio and its service infrastructure. Under the leadership of founder and CEO William Li (Li Bin), the company has invested in research and development centers in China, Europe and North America to advance electric powertrain technology, autonomous driving software and next-generation vehicle architectures. NIO’s culture emphasizes innovation, customer engagement and sustainability, reflecting a commitment to environmentally responsible mobility solutions.

While China remains NIO’s primary market, the company has expanded into international territories, beginning with Norway in 2021 and with further European countries under consideration. To support its global ambitions, NIO continues to build out sales and service centers, supercharging and battery-swap facilities, as well as digital platforms that connect drivers to real-time support and community events. Through this integrated approach, NIO aims to establish itself as a leading global brand in the premium EV space.
