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 the past one year will put Nio’s vehicle margin under pressure. It will derail the industry projection of cost parity of NEVs with ICEs, affecting NEV adoption in the long run.
