Nio sold out 2025 production within two days of launch, with about 100,000 cancellable pre-orders stacked on top.
Nio offered a rental-only 150 kWh semi-solid-state battery pack for the ES8, too costly to just sell outright.
Before it ever reached a customer, Nio drove the ES8 across Inner Mongolia and Australia chasing temperature extremes.
