NIO's (NYSE: NIO) vehicles support charging just like any other electric vehicle (EV), in addition to having access to a fully charged battery via battery swap. Now the Chinese EV maker has entered into a new partnership in Europe to make the charging experience better.

NIO has partnered with Norwegian smart energy provider Tibber to give European owners access to some of the benefits the latter offers, according to an article published yesterday in the European version of the NIO App.

NIO customers in Norway, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands who have a dynamic power contract with Tibber can easily connect their NIO vehicles to Tibber's app, the article said.

Tibber offers a range of services, including the Tibber App, that let customers track their energy use, find real-time energy prices and control the charging of their electric vehicles -- at best, when electricity prices are at their lowest, according to the article.

Smart charging with Tibber can be used with any wallbox, such as NIO's Power Home 3.0, the article said.

"Once you set up the 'Smart Charging' feature within the Tibber App, your NIO will be charged fully automatically exactly in the hours when the electricity is cheapest," the article reads.

Tibber was founded in 2016 and focuses on using technology to help customers save energy and money.

The partnership with Tibber is the latest NIO partnership in Europe related to EV energy replenishment.

Last December 8, EnBW, Germany's largest fast-charging network operator, announced that it had entered into a partnership with NIO in which the EV maker would build up to 20 battery swap stations at its charging parks.

NIO entered Norway in 2021 and last October expanded its presence in Europe to include Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark.

NIO's first NIO House in the Netherlands will officially open on March 23 local time, according to a post by Ruben Keuter, general manager of NIO Netherlands, published today on the company's mobile app.

The NIO House is located in Rotterdam, the second largest city in the Netherlands, which is an important port connecting five continents.

The NIO House building generally consists of two areas, a display area for vehicle models, and a place with various functions for users.

With the NIO House, NIO hopes to make this lifestyle available to users in every city, so that outsiders will think that buying an NIO vehicle is not just getting a car, but joining a high-end lifestyle group.

The first NIO House in the Netherlands is located in Rotterdam's Rotterdam Centrum neighborhood, next to a new, chic and colorful variety of buildings, according to the article in the NIO App.

NIO (NYSE: NIO) has seen the first batch of the ET5 electric sedan arrive in Norway, with deliveries of the model in Europe set to begin this month.

"We can confirm today that the first batch of our newest car model, the NIO ET5, has arrived in Norway," NIO said in an article in its European app.

The cars are now at Birger og Haug in Aros where they are being prepared for delivery to the first customers, according to the article.

"This will be our first car below the VAT limit," the article said.

The article does not provide more details about VAT, or Merverdiavgift (MVA) in the Norwegian language. ET7 faces a 25 percent VAT in Norway, or at least NOK 21,173.

The ET5 starts at NOK 429,000 ($40,340) excluding the battery, according to the NIO Norway website. All NIO vehicles support battery swap and allow consumers to choose to include or exclude the battery when purchasing the vehicle.

NIO introduced the ET7, EL7 and ET5 to European consumers at the NIO Berlin launch event on October 7. The EL7 is known as the ES7 in China and was renamed in Europe due to a lawsuit with Audi.

Deliveries of the ET7 started in Europe as planned in October last year, with deliveries of the EL7 starting at the end of January. The planned start date for deliveries of the ET5, announced by NIO in October last year, is the end of March.

There is no more information about the ET5 in Europe, including how many units of the electric sedan NIO has sent there.

For NIO, the ET5 has been its main seller in China for the past three months.

ET5 deliveries from December to February were 7,594, 5,795 and 6,471 units, contributing 48 percent, 68 percent and 53 percent of NIO's monthly deliveries, respectively, according to data from the company and the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) monitored by CnEVPost.

The ET5 ranked No. 7 in February in the ranking of high-end sedan sales in China with a starting price above RMB 300,000 ($43,440), according to the CPCA's list released on March 9.

The ranking dropped one spot from January, as the previously No. 7 Audi A4L outsold the ET5 with 6,935 units in February.
