NIO reports that its overall electric vehicle delivers in September amounted to 10,878, which is just over 2% more than a year ago.
A limited rate of growth is kind of a surprise, considering that the company introduced three new BEV models this year.
Last month, the company sold 7,729 crossover/SUVs (down 27% year-over-year) and 3,149 sedans (new category).
The overwhelming majority of NIO sales are in China, although in late 2021, the company started sales also in Norway (ES8 model).
The numbers for individual models were not released, aside from three new models: the NIO ET7 (2,928), the all-new NIO ET5 (first 221 units in September), and the NIO ES7 (1,895).
During the third quarter of 2022, NIO sold 31,607 electric cars (up 29% year-over-year). That's in line with the company's guidance of 31,000-33,000 units.
Sales results:
- Crossover/SUVs (EC6, ES6, ES7, ES8): 7,729 (down 27% year-over-year)
including 1,895 ES7 - Sedans (ET5, ET7): 3,149 (new)
including 2,928 ET7 and 221 ET5 - Total: 10,878 (up 2% year-over-year)
