FactThe EC6's battery isn't fixed in — like NIO's ES8, it's designed to be swapped out at a station instead of plugged in and waited on.
The Nio EC6, a 'crossover coupé' sporting-roofline counterpart to the boxier ES6, was announced in 2019 and sold in China from February 2020 (built under contract by JAC in Anhui). The entry version, with permanent-magnet motors front and rear, makes 324 kW (435 hp) for 0-100 km/h in 5.4 seconds; the high-end version pairs a 160 kW permanent-magnet front motor with a 240 kW induction rear motor for 406 kW (544 hp) and 0-100 km/h in 4.5 seconds, with the largest panoramic sunroof Nio claims 'in its class', active air suspension and Nappa leather. Swappable 70 or 100 kWh battery, the larger giving 615 km NEDC range. Dual-motor four-wheel drive; wheelbase 2,900 mm (114.2 in), length 4,850 mm (190.9 in), width 1,965 mm (77.4 in), height 1,758 mm (69.2 in).
