NIO (NYSE: NIO) will officially launch the new ES6 SUV in China next Wednesday, and deliveries will begin the next day, making it the fastest model from launch to delivery.

The new ES6 will be officially launched on May 24, with test drives available on the same day and deliveries starting on May 25, the company announced today on its mobile app.

The model is available for pre-order now, and consumers who pay a RMB 5,000 ($720) pre-order deposit before its official launch and convert those payments into a non-refundable deposit by July 31 will receive a Moon-themed exterior package and orange caliper worth RMB 8,000 and NOP+ two years free access worth RMB 9,120.

NIO has not announced any more information about the new ES6 based on its latest NT 2.0 platform, and its pricing is expected to be known on May 24.

It is not clear whether NIO will hold an offline launch of the new ES6 or whether the model will be launched only at an online event.

NIO officially unveiled the 2023 ET7 sedan at a brief launch event on the first day of the Shanghai auto show on April 18, and allowed an improved version of the ES6 SUV based on the NT 2.0 platform to make its debut.

The older ES6 based on the NT 1.0 platform was previously offered in three versions -- Sport, Performance and Signature -- with starting prices of RMB 386,000, 426,000 and 496,000 respectively.

On May 11, NIO asked its community for opinions on the pricing of the new ES6, and a questionnaire at the time offered six options: under RMB 368,000, RMB 368,000, RMB 378,000, RMB 338,000, RMB 398,000, and above RMB 398,000.

For NIO, the new ES6 will be a model of strategic importance, as it will be the least expensive of NIO's SUVs. The move underscores the high hopes it has for the model's sales prospects.

From January to August 2022, 32,877 units of the ES6 were delivered, contributing 46 percent of NIO's total deliveries of 71,556 units for the period, according to figures monitored by CnEVPost from the company and the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA).

The new ES6 is now widely seen as being powerfully equipped and competitively priced, which has sparked discontent among some owners who previously purchased the ES7 SUV.

Last month, several ES7 owners formed a WeChat group to collectively express their dissatisfaction that the upcoming new ES6 means NIO has betrayed them.

NIO's announcement today of the launch date for the new ES6 confirms a rumor from earlier this month.

Local auto industry media D1EV reported on May 4 that the new ES6 will be officially launched on May 24, and that show cars of the model will be available in NIO stores starting on the launch day.

Compared to the old ES6, the new model will retain only the Sport version, and the previously available higher-priced Performance and Signature versions have been optimized to become the new ES7 model currently on sale, the report said.

Since October 2021, BYD has been granted five mega industrial sites in the Shenzhen-Shanwei Special Cooperation Zone, with a combined area of over 4.1 million square meters.

These sites will all be used for BYD's automotive industrial park projects, which are important for the zone to create an industrial pattern with a new energy vehicle (NEV) industry as the main focus, complemented by new energy storage, new materials and intelligent manufacturing robots, the local government's announcement said.

The first and second phases of BYD's project here have a total investment of RMB 25 billion, and the annual output value is expected to exceed RMB 110 billion when all production is reached, according to the announcement.

In June last year, BYD acquired a plot of land with an area of over 554,500 square meters in the special cooperation zone for RMB 403 million, which will be used for the first phase of the local BYD industrial park.

The first phase of the project, with a planned total investment of RMB 5 billion, will mainly produce auto parts and is expected to have an annual output value of about RMB 10 billion and 18,000 employees after it goes into operation, according to a report by Shenzhen Economic Daily at the time.

NIO's (NYSE: NIO) EC7 coupe SUV and the ET5 sedan saw slightly longer wait times in China after the information for the ES7 SUV saw a similar change a week ago.

The EC7's current expected delivery date is 5-7 weeks, up from about 5 weeks previously, information from the NIO App monitored by CnEVPost shows.

The last change in the model's wait time information was on April 28, when it changed from about 4 weeks to about 5 weeks.

The EC7 was launched on NIO Day 2022, December 24, 2022, and NIO announced plans at the time that deliveries of the EC7 would begin in May.

On April 28, NIO EC7 started delivery, slightly ahead of the original plan.

The EC7 is NIO's second coupe SUV after the EC6, with a wind resistance coefficient of only 0.23 Cd, which NIO said is the lowest among mass-produced SUVs worldwide.

In addition to the EC7, the ET5 also has a slightly longer wait time.

The current expected delivery date for the ET5 is 2-3 weeks, slightly higher than the previous time of about 2 weeks. On April 10, the wait time for the sedan was reduced from about 3 weeks to about 2 weeks.
