Its powertrain provides a power output of up to 487 kW (653 hp) and a torque of 620 lb-ft.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

The estimated real-world range for NIO ES8 355km BASIC VERSION (2019-…) falls between 149–182 miles, ranking it №572 out of 693 electric vehicles. Several conditions can influence this range:

  • Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
  • Temperature: Extreme temperatures can impact range.
  • Terrain: Range is reduced on hilly or mountainous terrain.
  • Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as frequent acceleration and braking, decrease efficiency.
  • Feature utilization: Climate control and media system usage also affect range.

These figures are approximations, and your actual driving range may vary. When planning trips, consider these factors and be prepared for potential charging stops.

For trip planning assistance, utilize the EV Navigation interactive map.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?
  • For quicker charging, consider using a compatible DC fast-charging station. The car boasts a maximum charging rate of 70 kW, but remember that battery temperature and charge level can influence the actual speed you'll experience.
