Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Nio has successfully built its premium brand image, which will differentiate the company from its mass-market competitors and generate extra pricing power for the company’s electric cars.

Bears

Escalating battery cost in 2022-23 has put Nio’s vehicle margin under pressure. It also derailed the industry projection of cost parity of NEVs with ICEs, affecting NEV adoption in the long run.
