William Takes on the 5-Layer Champagne Tower Challenge with ET9

Even the 5-layer champagne tower remains spill-proof. William's confidence to take on this challenge comes from the NIO ET9's SkyRide Full Active Suspension, which processes information and execute responses in just 1 millisecond. By adjusting the stiffness, damping, and height in real-time, the suspension controls the body posture to maintain stability, which makes every journey feel like a steady cruise in the stratosphere.

The plan by the hedge fund manipulators and big investment houses. Give NIO and upside evaluation at $4.70 to create a psychological barrier. Let it run up to $4.70 then short it down. The big investment houses make a killing by lending shares to short positions. Their aim is suck out money from retail investors. The actual stock means nothing to them.

An overhead light fixture doesn’t have the fire load to cause the amount of smoke and fire seen in the video.
Something else is going on.. sabotage of the light fixture or video manipulation. I believe NIO is at war with a Stock Shorting Syndicate.
Short sellers have a lawsuit against NIO accusing the company of fraudulent earnings reports that caused a short squeeze. Evidently the shorts lost a ton of money when NiO’s PPS ran up to $60.

NIO Claps Back At Tesla Battery Swapping Claims

Sign up for daily news updates from CleanTechnica email. Or follow us on Google News!

NIO has completed more than 66 million battery swaps at its 3,000+ battery swapping stations. Tesla had one battery swapping station that was hard to find and barely used about a decade ago in California. Nonetheless, reportedly, someone at Tesla tried to shoot down battery swapping as a horrible idea in a recent post titled “What are the advantages of charging compared to battery swapping?” that was apparently directed at NIO Vice President of Power Shen Fei. “Although the automaker was not explicitly named, Tesla was mentioned multiple times in both the letter and Shen’s response, which he shared on his Weibo account on Saturday.”

I don’t know what’s going on here, but it sounds like some kind of battle for customers in China. I just find it humorous that someone would attack a company’s battery swapping approach as pointless when the company has performed 66 million battery swaps. Also, I have found it interesting that NIO has basically stood alone in the auto world in developing its vast battery swapping network, and have always wondered how that would evolve.

“Battery swapping is always an intermediate process. You always have to go somewhere to do something specifically for another purpose—just like going to a gas station to refuel,” the original post noted, before adding that charging “can be a destination or a stop along the way.” That’s all fair and good, and no one is saying charging doesn’t have a place and have some advantages, but perhaps battery swapping also has a place for a lot of people and a lot of scenarios?

“After you park, you don’t need any extra steps. You just plug in the charger, and by the time you’re ready to leave, the battery is charged,” the statement added. Yep, we get all that, and have been making this point for a decade and a half (or longer for some of you readers). But sometimes people could also benefit from a quick 3-minute battery swap, and there are many people who don’t have convenient home or workplace charging.

Here’s more (translated) from the original letter criticizing NIO’s battery swap system:

“Tesla had highly advanced battery swapping technology, but after testing it, we abandoned it for three reasons:

“1. Technological iteration: Battery technology is constantly evolving. Tesla integrates the battery into the vehicle chassis, reducing weight and improving efficiency. However, the structural constraints of battery swapping prevent flexibility in adapting new battery technologies.

“2. Safety concerns: Battery swapping requires frequent disassembly and installation of high-voltage components and fasteners. Doesn’t this pose safety risks? While we don’t know for certain, it is worth considering. Additionally, Tesla treats the battery as an integral structural component of the vehicle, which enhances safety.

Huawei / NIO… The race to the bottom is over. The race to the top is just beginning…

Race to the bottom" in the context of Chinese EVs refers to a highly competitive market where companies prioritize producing cheap electric vehicles by cutting costs, often through heavy government subsidies, rather than focusing on innovation and quality, essentially driving prices down to the lowest possible level, which can be detrimental to long-term sustainability and profit margins for manufacturers; this is in contrast to a "race to the top" where companies would focus on developing the most advanced and high-quality EVs, even if it means slightly higher prices.

Race to the top…Huawei/NIO

Nio shows off ET9's safety in extreme scenarios as Chinese EV makers race for better tech…

Nio (NYSE: NIO) has showed off the ET9's safety performance in extreme scenarios in a new video, after a Huawei executive praised the model at the Maextro S800's tech event yesterday.
Yu responded to William Li on Weibo today and invited him to the Maextro S800 launch event in May.
Maextro is a new automotive brand jointly created by Huawei and Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group (JAC), and the Maextro S800 will be officially launched in May, with an estimated price tag of RMB 1 million to RMB 1.5 million.

I expect the closer we get to NIO’s March 5th earnings call shots will want the PPS as low as possible. An expected call of increased losses will send the PPS into the $3.70- $3.50 range. They will crush the PPS. Only until proof of ramped up EV sales and/or a decrease in company financial losses will the tide turn against short sellers.
If NIO deliveries fall short in March on top of a bad earnings call NIO will see the $2.00 range. Value or no value short sellers are in control of the PPS until NIO sells a record number of cars or nears profitability. JMHO

$300k is my estimate also.

The buildout of Firefly Stations is supposed to be less expensive than the Gen 4 stations. Batteries are also less expensive.

Chinese power companies are working in partnership with NIO to install battery swap stations as a means of addressing the electrical grid’s inability to meet future peak power demand. NIO isn’t footing the entire bill in some utility districts. The utility districts see Battery Swap Stations as a means of selling more electricity without having to upgrade infrastructure. It is a win win situation that can be duplicated anywhere in the world. Elon Musk’s solution to the impending electrical grid’s inability to meet peak power demand is battery storage units strategically placed within the electrical grid.

Either way batteries will need to be installed to meet grid demand. NIO is ahead of the curve by using EV batteries and battery swap stations for mobility, power supply and grid management within the same system.

There was an illustration of the modular expansion unit with the patent application.
What I foresee is a trucking transport system transporting and swapping batteries from station to station according to demand. Most likely there will be strategically located battery service centers where batteries are stored, repaired, refurbished, charged… etc. Batteries will be recharged during low demand hours at a cheap rate then transported to be resold at the high demand rate at busy swap stations.

The above scenario is years away from becoming a reality. The fourth generation battery swap station unit took 6-7 years to get patent approval… why?
The modular extension patent was applied for in December 2024.

Battery Swap Station buildout cost.

I put this together on my phone. I will try and add the links when on my PC.

Generation 1 Battery Swap Station costs $410,000 - $480,00

The cost of building each second-generation power swap station for Nio is a minimum of 1.5 million yuan ($207,581), ,

The cost of building a third-generation battery swap station can range from around 1.5 to 3 million yuan (approximately $210,000 to $420,000)

Nio Granted Patent for Cheaper Battery Swap Station After Seven-Year Wait

According to recent information, the cost to build a Nio fourth-generation battery swap station is estimated to be between $107,000 and $120,000 for installation, with variations depending on additional features like photovoltaic systems

Nio's fourth-generation battery swap stations are more open and support servicing of multi-brand vehicles with different sized battery packs

The cost of retrofitting each third-generation station with fourth generation is roughly RMB 200,000 (27,580) to RMB 300,000, Li said, adding that by the end of the year, there will be more than 1,000 battery swap stations available for Onvo.

Nio Files Patent for Expandable Battery Swap Stations

The patent, filed on December 27, 2024 describes a modular extension unit that can be attached to existing battery swap stations, increasing the number of batteries available. Currently, fourth generation stations can store upt to 23 batteries.
The patent also aims to address fluctuating demand in battery swap services, according to details released in a public patent application.

Firefly Competition in China
If you check out the various models and compare apples to apples the Firefly is not over priced. Granted, the Firefly offers only one model at this time unlike its competitors offering bare bones cheaper packages. If you are referring to bottom end models I agree NIO is overpriced to compete with the base price models selling in the $12,000 dollar range. But as far as head to head battery range, safety, horse power, top speed, 0-100kph, advanced tech, size,… NIO’s list price for the Firefly is NOT overpriced as compared to their competitor’s top end models. Not even to mention the battery subscription option bringing the initial purchase price of the Firefly well below the competition’s top end models.

The competition in China.
BMW Mini: The Firefly is priced similarly to the discounted electric Mini Cooper in China.
Mercedes-Benz Smart: The Firefly is positioned as a competitor to the Smart.
BYD Seal: The Firefly competes with domestic brands like the BYD Seal.
Xpeng Mona: The Firefly competes with domestic brands like the Xpeng Mona.

Chery's sub-brand Exeed has partnered with Nio to build battery swap-enabled models that will go on sale in the third quarter of 2025… an SUV and a sedan.

The cycle time to build a new battery swap-enabled model is about 18 months, and by 2027 and 2028 there would be a relatively large number of new models built using Nio's battery swap technology, Li said at the time.
Models from the battery swap alliance ( Changan, Geely, Chery and JAC) is expected to help Nio's energy arm, Nio Power, grow independently.

Nio announced on May 31, 2024 that Nio Power had received a RMB 1.5 billion ($205 million) investment. Nio still holds around 90 percent of Nio Power after it secured its first external financing.

The battery swap fee is around $5.00 per swap not $1.00
The charge station fee for conventional charging averages around $5.00. As you can see revenue can ramp up considerably in a short period of time.

Let’s crunch some numbers…
Hypothetical
NIO did over 1 million battery swaps during the Chinese holiday
In the same time period EV drivers used NIO power chargers over 1 million times.
If NIO received just $1 per charge… only one dollar. In a period of two weeks NIO brought in over $2 million. At this rate, a period of one year is over $50 million.
NIO is creating the infrastructure to ramp up charging numbers at an exponential rate. NIO Power is a major key to profitability.

Let’s be prescient…

The power company solutions to curb quick charging power grid overload will be in pricing.

Higher prices for quick charging will curb the use of quick charging options making quick charging a choice for those able can pay the extra premium. The less affluent will have to choose different options like battery swapping, slow charging or if available home charging. In this inevitable scenario battery swapping is the solution for those lacking home charging access.

A sudden influx of electric cars could put immense pressure on the existing power grid, potentially leading to blackouts.

Power demand isn’t energy demand. The quicker the battery charge the more power is demanded from the power grid.‘Energy supply means nothing if the infrastructure lacks the capability to deliver the power demand required by quick charging by a large number of EV vehicles. We will reach this brick wall sooner than expected as EVs become more popular and quick charging becomes the norm.
While the short sighted investors and battery swap detractors play checkers NIO is playing chess by installing battery swap stations capable of power storage, slow battery charge, and grid management. NIO has the solution to prevent the impending grid power blackouts caused by quick charging EVs.
