- The consumption efficiency is like on the ET5.
- 12 Volt Battery is dead when power swap.
- Drivers cannot leave the car.
- Need more swap stations to save time.
- If hauling a trailer then it will take a longer time.
- Without the trailer, it would have driven faster to the next location.

- When towing, you cannot drive or accelerate as fast.
- The reviewer said to have some precision in your ball, which in context meant precision when connecting the trailer ball to the car.

- While a Tesla charges way faster, the NIO has power swap to overcome it.

- There is a concern while pulling a trailer where you block the supercharger spots from Tesla vehicles.
