NIO ES6 test drives already began. Soon, the company will start deliveries.
Chinese premium electric vehicle manufacturer NIO announced the start of the test drive tour of its second model, the NIO ES6.
The ES6 will join NIO ES8 in mid-2019 and significantly increase the sales volume for the brand as the market for a more affordable 5-seat BEV is bigger than 7-seat BEVs (by the way, the ES8 can be ordered with six seats too).
