Nio was criticised on Chinese social networks after it explained the occurrence as ‘not related to the vehicle itself’ it later on remedied this to ‘not caused by the vehicle’, BBC reported.

It stated in a declaration: ‘Our business has actually worked together with public security department to release the examination and analysis of the reason for the mishap.

‘Based on the analysis of the situation at the scene, we can initially confirm that this was an accident (not caused by the vehicle).’

According to Audi, Nio’s choice to call 2 of its designs ES6 and ES8 infringes Audi’s hallmark for its own design classifications S6 and S8, German paper Handelsblatt reported.

Nio stated in 2024 it would begin making high-voltage battery loads that it has actually established itself to enhance success and competitiveness to handle competitors such as Tesla.
