Based on the available information, there is no specific news from NIO reported for today (April 28, 2025). However, I can share the most recent news about NIO from the past month:
## Recent NIO Developments
NIO showcased its three electric vehicle brands at Auto Shanghai 2025, with plans for its firefly brand to enter 16 international markets this year[4]. This represents a significant expansion of NIO’s global footprint.
On April 22, 2025, NIO announced a deepened strategic partnership with the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to further advance Clean Parks[4]. On the same day, the company also released its 2024 ESG Report[4].
Earlier in April, NIO reported delivering 42,094 vehicles in Q1 2025, representing a 40.1% year-over-year increase[4]. This strong quarterly performance demonstrates continued growth in NIO’s vehicle sales.
In March 2025, NIO formed a strategic partnership with CATL on battery swapping technology[4]. This aligns with news from December 2024 when CATL announced plans to build 1,000 EV battery swap stations in China to address range anxiety, with ten new EV models using this technology to be developed with partners including Changan Auto and FAW Group[3].
For their luxury vehicle segment, NIO unveiled the ET9 luxury sedan in December 2024, priced at 800,000 yuan (approximately $110,080) in presale with deliveries expected to have started in March 2025[3]. The ET9 incorporates a steer-by-wire system from ZF, as announced in their February technology partnership milestone[4].
