This is a desperately pretty car. The design is flawless and perfectly coherent and balanced. Nothing is out of place and everything is as it should be.
Exactly on point. So well balanced
I agree it's nice but it's close to being very product designy with little to no personality. Luckily nio has retained some identity in their cars but the same can't be said for so many new EVs that have no "emotional" design
Except the lidar…
@@Donzorro849 I assume that that would be the lumps on the roof. Don't like those.
This is one of the most beautiful electric car and probably most useful, Atleast for Europe!!😊
Yes, I agree! My only wish is a bit higher efficiency.
Agree
Extremely good looking sporty wagon on every angle. Design is clean with no extra styling detail needed.
Battery swap is a good selling point for this vehicle.
NIO is taking over, hands down the best EV on the market and I really like NOMI.
It's the only car that could replace my actual Mercedes C250d SW 😁
Same size, same confort and also possible to swap from 75kw to 150kw during my holidays when I'm towing my 750kg foldable caravan 😉
DEFINITLY my dream car 💯
Nicest station at the moment.
High quality of Nio.
Yes indeed
Best looking estate car I've seen
Finally a station wagon. 🎉I hope this will not be an isolated case and manufacturers will start to build cars that actually make sense.
I really like this car, we drove it during the summer in China. we want to buy it. :) great video.
Thanks! 😃 good choice!
NIO for the win. Please make a NOMI episode.
What a fabulous looking touring car! Finally an electric car that is practical and not an SUV, and fun to drive..... Good job NIO!
practical in what way? I has only 450l of trunk capacity and no frunk. Model 3 has 650l of storage capacity. (trunk and frunk combined). I don't get it how they make an estate with a smaller trunk than a sedan.
Finally a fully electric EV!
It looks sooooo nice
Hands down the best electric car on the market at that price point (when leashing battery).
Great review, as always. I would add some more important data. First, I would appreciate it if you did a review on NOP+ in Europe. We know in China it is better than FSD. Now he can also drive on city roads. But in Europe everything is much more complicated. Secondly, one of the great advantages of NIO is that you can rent the small battery every day, then once in a while, when you need a large battery, you upgrade the battery, and pay for it on a daily basis, thus saving around 80 percent of the cost of the upgraded battery. Sometimes even 90 and 100 percent, then you know that in case you regret it, everything is still open. Your vehicle is built for a 1000 kilometer battery (of CLTC which is usually quite detached from reality, but under the conditions of two passengers, a fairly full trunk, Benoni weather, reasonable roads, 19 inch wheels, and in general, daily use, the ET5 achieves between 25 for 30 percent of the declared CLTC range, which means 700 to 750 kilometers of real range) so let's say in five years such a battery will cost 1100 thousand euros after taxes, so your monthly payment will be the same as it was five years ago but your range is now twice as good. What I mean is that it is true that currently the best range of the NIO is less than that of the Tesla Model 3, but in reality the NIO you buy today has a built in battery of 750 kilometers of real range. And the most important point, NIO is a standard. NIO's strategy is to put everything important inside and let them choose color and small additions. Tesla, on the other hand, puts everything important to your choice. There are two methods here, one can argue about which one is the right one. (I personally think Tesla's method is better) This means a significant difference in the entry price. But if you do a head-to-head comparison, NIO is actually much more attractive than Tesla. (I am going to make the comparison based on the model 3 Highland and the ET5T in Germany, assuming that the vehicles themselves are the same at their level) First we will add dual drive, 19 inch wheels, we will add a white interior, (because at NIO the most beautiful interior is free) we will also add autonomous driving because With NIO, this is the standard, (in fact, NIO has more than twice as many sensors for autonomous driving as Tesla, and all of those are of a much higher resolution than Tesla's, some even for a long range of 200 meters) So, NIO ET5T 45 thousand euros, Tesla 63 thousand euros, so tell me , well, not all customers want dual drive, so they lose five things about it, they lose a lot of things about it, 1, less performance, 2, less grip on the road, 3, less good for off-road 4, dual drive doubles the shelf life of The propulsion system, 5, and probably the most important, the charging of drops to 170 at the peak, and we know that with Tesla the curve drops quickly so this is very significant. That's why you must purchase the double drive in 75 percent of the cases. But let's say you still insist on choosing the rear-wheel drive version, the price drops to $53,000, still much more expensive than the NIO. Euro ENCAP score, better than the Tesla Model S in the adult category. Maybe we'll talk about responsibility? Tesla's responsibility are 4 years or 80 thousand kilometers the earlier of them while NIO's warranty is 150 thousand kilometers or five years. I have to say that I didn't really understand this trend of not purchasing an SUV. NIO's SUV has much more comfortable seats and seating position, more legroom, more storage space, same amount of horsepower, rear screen, heating and cooling massage for all seats, matrix headlights, acoustic glass, more suitable for off-road, so I think the EL6 is more attractive . True, the ET5T is much more beautiful, it is sportier, it is also 6000 euros cheaper, so for those who care about these three advantages more than the advantages of the SUV, I would recommend them to go for the ET5T, but I think the most attractive vehicle for most families is the EL6.
The text was written in Hebrew and converted by Google Translate, so the language is rather sloppy.
This is the longest CZcams comment I've seen
Big advantage for Touring: much more aerodynamic than suv's, really important as an electric car.
TLDR
I really hope this car gets to the US market. Will trade my Model Y in a heartbeat
USA: Chinese EVs? Forget about it, banned.😋
America is in the grips of ludicrous anti-China reds under the bed hysteria so no nice Chinese goodies for you. Just don't try to drag everyone else into your hysterical pathological paranoia.
ikr, i saw they have a "dealership" store in California but they can't sell, only demonstration due to relegations
it won’t happen anyway
@@russelfang7434 IPhones are, has been made, well they say Assembled in China for a long time and that has'nt stopped anyone from buying them anywhere so...
Fantastic car 🔥🙌.
Huge practicality combined with stunning exterior + interior. Tech + Nio community.
Love Nomi + Watchtower (Jimi Hendrix). New Banyan, and now 2 swop stations 15min from home what's not to like?
Thanx for great review!
Great with two swaps so close, really convenient!
Thanks for watching!
They got now like 15 in stock in Norway for immediate delivery.
Same in Sweden, but on the way.
Looking forward to availability in Australia in 2030 ;)
@ad_fletch haha..that late?
i just love this ET5T Great video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
The car is so beautiful! Bring the blue sky to Switzerland! Price not competitive with Tesla which is a bummer. On the other hand, much prettier inside than the cars from California.
170 euros a month after taxes is a fair price for two SWAPs, a guarantee that your battery will forever be in the healthiest condition, upgrades, and future cost reduction. That's why I think it's fair to measure the price by the price excluding the battery. The most important point, NIO is a standard. NIO's strategy is to put everything important inside and let them choose color and small additions. Tesla, on the other hand, puts everything important to your choice. There are two methods here, one can argue about which one is the right one. (I personally think Tesla's method is better) This means a significant difference in the entry price.

@@tani123 what? a tesla model 3 highlander is 44000 euro right now at the official store in germany with delivery, an et5t starts at 60450 with less range, where can you buy it for 45 thousand??? that would be a killer deal. Headline news. I'm very disappointed with the pricing in Europe.
@@torotomika1911 You didn't read my comment... I was talking about prices in Germany after taxes. The starting price of NIO in Germany including the battery is 56 thousand euros. (There are all kinds of tax discounts, I didn't exactly understand the idea, but this is the price listed on NIO's website) But in the same comment I explained why it is fair to calculate through the price not including the battery, therefore the price drops to 45 thousand euros. Tesla is indeed cheap in the basic version, but if you add dual drive, (something that comes as standard with NIO) and autonomous driving, (another thing that is standard with NIO) then your price becomes more expensive than NIO. now you understand?
I really like the look of that car. Possibly the most important phrase in the review was the "fairly flat curve" statement. Ever faster DC charging isn't that useful if the EV's battery chemistry & battery management system only allows the fastest charging rate for a short amount of time. An entirely flat charge curve must be the ultimate goal
Yes, agree. Keeps full speed, 180kWh, to 70% before tapering.
Good review. I don't understand how NIO is not selling in thousands in EU. The car looks outstanding
Thanks 🙏. They started with a big sedan = wrong car for Europe. EL6 would had been the best car to start with on the new platform then ET5T and EL7 after that ET7. But I guess it's more due to the built in European scepsism to Chinese brands unfortunately.
I don't know the prices in other countries, but in Norway the ET5 Touring is competitively priced: NOK 543,000 with 75 kWh (NOK 476,000 with BaaS), 19" and met paint. If you compare with the "equivalent" TM3 LR H, then it is at NOK 527,000. Design and perceived quality are subjective, but very few who have experienced NIO believe that they are behind Tesla. The TM3 has a better range, yes, while the NIO ET5 Touring is better equipped, has far more color choices, is a station wagon and can change/upgrade the battery. Deliveries of the ET5 Touring and EL6 will begin soon, and it will be exciting to see how many cars will be delivered (it is a very demanding market for new cars in Norway at the moment, with sales figures far below normal).
Definately not. There are currently almost 400 thousand NIO vehicles in China alone. Satisfaction surveys say that NIO's scores were much better than Tesla's. In fact, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who purchased a NIO and wasn't happy with it. There are two main reasons why NIO's sales in Europe have not been good. 1, new in Europe. They started in Europe only with the ultra-luxury models that reach even close to one hundred thousand euros, which is something that the Europeans are not familiar with. The Europeans are used to the Chinese being the cheapest and least quality alternative, and not the other way around, in Europe there is very little infrastructure, few garages, few NIO houses, and most problematically few battery SWAP stations. That's why even those who want to buy NIO prefer to wait until 2025 when there will be more battery exchange stations. 2, the Europeans are still unable to understand that there are also high-quality Chinese vehicles. So until this stigma weakens, NIO will struggle to sell many vehicles.@@NorwayBEV
And this is my explanation why NIO is cheaper than Tesla. @@NorwayBEV

对欧洲来说这个品牌是全新的，还需要很多时间，还有就是媒体对我们国家的诋毁也是会让很多人不信任😂
Its a beauty I will definitely sacrifice the range 😅
The capability to swap the battery decouples the car from the battery which means if the battery degrades or fails and when higher energy density batteries are developed the car doesn't heavily depreciate or become obsolete, like say a Tesla with a structural battery pack will.
Also it's a Beautiful car, I just hate all the lumps on the roof and I don't want all the self driving tech, lidar. cameras etc, makes the car expensive, I like driving and there's more to go wrong and maintain.
I am interested how that will work in the future from a backward compatibility perspective.
As long as they stay to the same form factor it's all fine. They have already been adding newer gen batteries to the stations that works with all cars in the fleet.
Awesome review as always👌
Thank you so much 😃
I'd pick this over Model 3 any day
The difference in price is pretty big....
@@VK92KL No it's not
10k Euros between 75kwh pack ET5T and Tesla model 3 LR.
@@ItsOnlyElectric and then battery as a service. Same price as the Tesla :)
I explained in the comment above why nio is actually cheaper.
Always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy my videos. 🙂
Such amazing car. Well done for a great review and bring us something different than the boring SUV. Keep up the good work
Thank you
Thanks for the great review!
Glad you liked it
Yes, a really good looking car! Though I wouldn't mind a slightly elvevated version like the Volvo V60 CC. Easy to enter and practical like most wagons.
I just drove the ora good cat today. I think it's actually way better than Toyota😂😂
Bra jobbat!
Tackar!
Cool car, I would real like one of these - nice design!
Great review!
Tackar!
As a strong nod to the Taycan Sport Turismo, they couldn't really go wrong. And indeed they did not.
Pretty much the only EV I'd be looking at!
The rear really resembles the Taycan, in a good way.
I have not seen a family with 190cm+ children in the back seat without driving a large SUV or MPV. The back seat is used by smaller kids or just occasionally grown ups and even more often, empty. And nobody has 3 normal size adults in the back seat, just on short occasional situations, if ever.
Yes, my back seat tests are for extreme conditions. 😂 but I guess it gives people a hint of the size.
The charge connection is not on the right side. It is on the left side😉
Höhö... 😂
Amazing to see the beauty and reliability of NIO car.......
What a beauty 😍
Very clean❤
Good review!
Wish they release the BYD HAN stationwagon. It looks really nice they got a concept car of it. Hopefully NIO makes more manufacturers make station wagons.
Yes, hope for more estates too.
Thank you!
very cool, personally I would preffer, less tall and a a bit more width, with somewhat cross turismo proportions.
Beautiful car. This is industrial progress, and electrification is just the beginning.
Yes, there's a lot to come
Thanks. I like nio cars.
Excellent review! I wish we got this car in Canada. It's my favorite looking EV. I would've got this car in a heartbeat if it was an option for me. The only thing it's missing is a HUD.
Thanks! 👍
Not sure if that will ever happen. After all, the US controls the North America, and the car will probably be banned due to national security reason
high quality car
love your review from israel
Thanks! Greetings from Sweden 👋
I also live in Israel.
Very good video, everyday type of use for everyday user. This is an awesome car no doubt.
Thank you 👍
Beautiful car!!!
Wow.. totally missed Nio releasing their car.. seeing them on carwow now. Why cant byd or tesla make one of these^^
Byd has wagons but only in China so far
Väntar på min gröna touring 😍
Såg den gröna på plats på service centret, väldigt fin färg!
Den är klockren 🙌 Orange/röd vat inte dum heller om än lite mer extrovert 😍
This one before Tesla Model 3. Double screen and one semi-big vertical. At this moment battery swap NIO is like Tesla some years ago when there aren't superchargers. Is it more fun than Mustang Mach E? In addition, the battery swap favors that it is not necessary to have a charger at home.
The Mustang Mach e gt has a sportier suspension when pushing it. But the nio I not far away and s better allrounder.
Looks fantastic, looks like a wonderful EV.
Do you have any plans to review the zeekr 001 as well? Would be very interesting to see the differences between the two.
Thanks! Yes, I'm planning for that. 👍
GO NIO!!!!!!!!
Leasing the battery makes total sense.
Great review. Was able to correct some data in our database based on your review. Added this to our site for this model. Currently on frontpage. Will try to follow your channel more closly to add other later.
Question1. Did you do a DC charge test? Will that be a seperate video?
Question2: Have Nio explained to you what happens when you swap with this? According to Nio the battery has a new chemistry, thats why they updated the charge speed. But other cars do not, so when you swap you risk ending up with a slow 100 kWh battery from an EL7 or other model. (I am 100% sure Nio will not throw away thousands of "old" batteries with old chemistry.)
Great that I could help. Yes, it's a new chemistry. I swapped the battery on it and then I got a battery with the older chemistry. So a lucky owner that swaps after I did will get the new battery.
When it comes to charging it peaks at 182kWh and hold it around 180 all the way to 70% before it start tapering. So a very flat charging curve.
@@ItsOnlyElectric oh my god.
@evkx 😂😂 glad that I could help.
As the brand expands the old batteries will become rarer. But it will take time. Probably in about six months 80 percent of the batteries will be upgraded to charge at 180 kilowatts. Not to mention moving to NT3 in a little less than a year, which in general will be based on 500 kW, which is twice the best charging you can get with Tesla. And that's without talking about the fact that the sub-brands that will cost less than 30 thousand euros in Europe will also be based on NT3.
@tani123 in Europe it go much faster than that. Only 26 stations for the moment and most are half full.
uuu, this looks good! and i dont even like this kind of long trunk.very cool design!
So nice ❤❤❤❤❤
Tack!👍 superbra, håller med-en av de snyggaste på marknaden nu. Har 75 kwh batteriet med fått högre laddhastighet? 180?
75 will be cca 148 max, 100 will be 180+
Tror inte 75an har fått snabbare laddning. Men har iofs inte sett något test på den heller.
Inte enligt säljaren i Göteborg som jag har kontakt med tyvärr.
Very nice car went come to America I buying it because have batteries swap
Definitely go for range
lovely place
Yes, calming.
This was the car that made me look seriously at Nio. I spotted it on the street in Beijing but did not get the brand, subsequently saw it in the Livat shopping mall showroom. I think the car is absolutely stunning to look at, unfortunately I find the rear floor to be too high (battery pack limits space) resulting in the back seat being too low (I’m 1.88m). The sales lady pointed me to the ES6 which I then investigated online before taking a test drive and buying.
Then you will like the #es6 / #el6 more
3 days with my new ES6, LOVE IT !! 7kw home charger installed, customer service (in Beijing) is fantastic.
@steve251157 glad to hear that
EU may put high tarrif on China EV , and makes it much more expensive.
So much for democracies, you can buy anything you want so long as it’s made in the EU, if you chose to buy outside you will be punished by exorbitant taxes
Beauty
Such an elegant design, definitely one of the best and everybody agrees on it drives like BMW. But it is little bit pricey, that’s the downside.
Yes, pricey against Tesla. But fairly prices compared to other brands.
I am hoping BYD will release the seal wagon, anyone agree?
Yes, that would ve a great addition
Nice car!
Which blue colour is this? It’s beautiful
Airspace blue, a really nice color!
Did you assess the infotainment system? It does not support android car or apple car so how does it compare?
Yes I had a closer look in the el6 with banyan 200:
czcams.com/video/bdr5gjdk4aA/video.html
This is the car the germans fear! High quality and reasonably priced! This will replace my old EV in 2025.
Yes, really good car!
so nice
i need this car here in USA, when are we goin to have this
They have a development office in CA. Hopefully that paves way for an availability soon.
I been waiting for this for like 5 year and nothing happened at this point I think I will get a tesla because this is almost impossible o well welcome to the US @@ItsOnlyElectric
😍🤙
DJI AIR 3 FTW
4.0 swap stations now in two minutes! and more batteries
Why is the drive selector contrary to actual direction ?
I think that's rather normal. Take automatic gear levers on a lot of combustion cars. Bmw for instance.
Great and beautiful car, I just wish it really had a (much) bigger trunk, even my 2017 Skoda Fabia which cost 13000 EUR and is on all accounts an inferior car to this one, has more trunk space and that is important for many SW drivers.
Still limited boot capacity, agree, but much better than a sedan..
34:26 and also higher payment per month
Thanks for vid. Nice car. Boot is quite small for car of this size and combi at top. Even Fabia3 comby has bigger boot. Flash light removable, oh damn its in Skoda cars about 10 years back :D. Seating position on the bacj seats, do you realy can imagine travel in this position more than half a hour? For kids its Ok until 13 years after that it will be to low too. Everythogn else is quite good. The dimming roof is very nice. No glove box- thats big minus for me, tahat additional space under central console is no good subtitute. I dont understand why you push lever back when you want go towards and othervise :D.
Good points. I think the back seat was ok, don't forget that I'm 193cm tall. Nio seems to prioritize looks and design for an attractive look. Compared to a Fabia that goes all in on practicality and skips everything else. 😂😂
Well, I want one! Just need the money now... I'll be back in 25 years, or when one is cheap enough to buy for £3000! Why am I so poor:(
Most of the "buyers" in Scandinavia get them as a company lease car. That way you don't need to collect all that money or take bank credits for it.
You'll get one sooner than you think. 👍
In uk , waiting to get an et7
Any release date for nio in UK yet?
2024 is the expected date.
@@ItsOnlyElectric not as yet , next year i believe
@tonygrant3062 🤞
Nicer than Taycan.
Seats are an important reason for my purchase. Unfortunately, they haven't quite convinced me yet. You also film the seats too briefly and too little in the video. But otherwise good information. Thanx ;)
Seats in the el6 is better and the best yet in nio cars.
One question. Since you can swap battery, will that mean that your odometer never gets high? Does that mean that you will never have a car with 300 000 km on the odometer for example ?
Odometer works as normal but will not tell you anything about the battery life, battery life can be diagnosed in other ways. A lot of other things are interesting for odometer though, like motor, tires, bearings bussings etc..
@@ItsOnlyElectric Thank you. :)
I do really like this car. It is expensive, but well equipped and good looking. And I am waiting for a nice estate electric car (like the taycan sporttourismo, but cheaper). I do have one big issue with this car. I don’t thrust NIO (or any Chinese car) with all the interior camera’s and microphones.
but you can absolutely trust tesla which comes from a country spying on nearly every european leader with solid evidence🤣
Well designed, beautifully crafted car, with smoothed details.
However, not for me: - there is too low seating position. This is not very comfy. I would switch to NIO ES6
- Very expensive despite battery swap option. ICE cars still look like cheaper in use.
I would look a EV wagon or crossover with better range - 550-600 km is OK but in winter season.
Tycker överlag att den kändes lite billig i materialen men vad var din känsla? Blev tveksam till pris/kvalité även om jag gillade den överlag.
Jag gillar material och inredning lagom avskalad. Är iofs van vid tesla.
@@ItsOnlyElectric Precis lämnat 4år med model3 och nästan 17k mil. Så förstår dig ;) dock faller den för mig på batterihyran. Fram tills dess ligger den ok i pris. Får hoppas på G6 istället.
@davidolsson tror batterihyran är bra och prisvärd om man ska ha bilen länge och reser många längre sträckor.
G6an see fick lovande ut!
24:28 wow a PaNiomera
😂😂
It can be really fascinating if you do a triple test, Model 3 Project Highland, Nio ET5 touring, and Zeker 001.
I would expect acoustic glass at this price point. Battery lease strikes me as rather expensive.
Yes at a first glance it looks expensive. But if you add that you get to swaps per month (accumulates if not used) and new battery tech when available included in that fee it makes more sense.
I haven't finished watching but did you give NOMI the name "FRANKIE" like you promised?
I had you I'm mind and looked for the setting. Found it but locked for changing (greyed out). 😫
I’m so glad that creepy fecker in the middle of the dashboard is optional. The easiest money saving decision ever. 😂
😂😂😂
Lätt 20" arna. Värt några mil för snygga hjul. 💪
Ja, riktigt snygga!
The downside of the new faster battery is that if you swap it, you will (for now) get the old and slow one instead.
Very good point. But that's only if the charging is dependent on the battery, new chemistry or new bms, or if it's software and or components on the car?
@@ItsOnlyElectric It's the battery. So if you swap it and get an old one, it's slow. Confirmed by NIO.
@masterzedric that's not perfect! Then I just swapped away the 180 pack on the presscar for a slower one.. 😂
@@masterzedricreally? I figured it's 100% software. They would have announced a new battery I would think.
@@reginald7214 Honestly I think Kyle sort of let the cat out of the bag on that one. I think NIO wasn't ready to announce it yet. But, that's just my guess.
I wish it was just software. That would have meant that my new (still to be delivered) EL6 would be able to swap without the downside of losing the good battery. 🤷🏻♂️
Very like the Jaguar Sporbrake ... but in EV
Yes, there are similarities
@@ItsOnlyElectric I sold my Sportbrake and lease a Volvo XC40 Twin ... but I'd certainly look at this .. even has the roof rails and towbar
Yes, certainly a good alternative. Happy with your Xc40? I'm testing the 2024 updated XC40 extended range single motor now.
@@ItsOnlyElectric very happy .. 2021 First Edition Twin ... Android Automotive, Scandinavian understated, One Pedal Driving, comfortable but not as plush as the Jaguar. I'd definitely have another but also looking at EX30.
@mdshovel I'm actually surprised over it's efficiency. Especially the new single motor with new motor developed in Sweden.
What's in the frunk?
No frunk. Covered in plastic.
better than RS6
Zeekr 001 competitor.
For sure!
Problem with the new updated batteries are though that the second you use the PSS and swap your battery you will swap into an old battery and be left with the lower speed of 130kw…
If it's the battery that stands for the updated charging speed. For me it's more sounds like it's software rather than an updated battery chemistry?
@@ItsOnlyElectric Tyvärr bekräftat av NIO att det är hårdvaran som uppdaterats så som ny förare av ET5T samt EL6 finns väldigt litet incitament att göra en Battery swap
@alpiusjoakim yes, läste det sabba sak idag.
Har svårt att se att dom skulle byta alla batterierna o stationerna. Tyvärr så kommer dom flesta nya ägare i tänka på det o byta bort dina pack. Lyckliga Et7 och el7 ägare kan då på sikt få snabbare laddning.
