NEO Day is the most important annual event for NEO and usually sees the launch of new models and technologies.
Nio held its first Nio Day on December 16, 2017 in Beijing, where it launched its first production model, the ES8.
The latest event, Nio Day 2023, was held in Xi’an, northwestern China’s Shaanxi Province on December 23, 2023, when Nio unveiled its flagship executive sedan, the ET9, with deliveries scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2025.
There is no evidence of what new models or technologies Nio will unveil at Nio Day 2024. There will be no new model releases from the flagship Nio brand this year before Nio Day 2024.
The company launched its sub-brand Onvo (Ledao in China) on May 15 and began pre-sales of the new brand’s first model, the L60. The official launch and delivery of the Onvo L60 is scheduled for September.
