Nio's Firefly Delay, Q3 Deliveries
Nio had earlier delayed the launch of the Firefly in Europe from the planned timeline of the first half of the year to Q3 2025, citing constraints related to expanding its sales and services network within the region.
Nio reported 36,275 deliveries during November, a 76% surge when compared to the same period last year. Out of the total deliveries, Nio said that 18,393 vehicles comprised the Nio brand units, while 11,794 vehicles were Onvo and 6,088 vehicles from the Firefly brand.
BYD's Europe Growth, Xpeng's Expansion
Meanwhile, Chinese automakers are flocking to the region amid a global expansion, with BYD Co. Ltd.'s (OTC:BYDDY) (OTC:BYDDF) sustained growth in the European market, which saw the company record a 206.8% surge in European registration during October, with 17,470 units registered in the region. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) sales, on the other hand, have been falling in the market.
Elsewhere, rival Xpeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV) also announced earlier that it would be entering three new countries in the European market: Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia, as well as Cambodia in the Asian market.
