Full Review: • NIO ET7 (2023) Review ... First drive on European roads with the Nio ET7 653 hp unleased on the Autobahn. + walkaround and 5 min. battery swap 00:00 Walkaround 10:12 Autobahn test drive 15:18 Battery swap
For people wondering why there are black stripes on the navigation screen. That has something to do with the camera I think. In real life you don’t have those stripes👍🏼
this is called aliasing. because the screen has certain refresh rate, while your camera has lower frame per sec. therefore the aliasing happens, which is the stripes.
Nio’s success is the entire industry’s success. The more that battery swap is successful the more that battery storage overall is successful. A vastly underappreciated paradigm shift.
In mysteriös point of view swapping is quite cool but fancy and I think it is more like Apple with IOS. Its never was the goal of apple to have IOS on every Smartphone.
The battery swap thing is kind of a poor solution honestly. It makes it quicker, almost petrol station fast, but really hurts the longer term sustainability of EVs
I gotta agree with you. You have a subscription. NIO comes out with a solid state battery. More range less weight. Designs it so it fits the old design. Swap out the old one the new one at whatever extra cost. I drive out with a new car without changing the car.
Design of exterior and interior both look better, quality inside and outside better. I know cause I sat in one in Berlin. Its a wonderful car. Definitely premium.
I own a Tesla Model Y and a Nio ET7 in China. I think that ET7 has no competitors in the same class, and it's one of the best BEV that I've ever experienced. Equipped with air suspension and wild back seats, ET7 is extremely comfortable and quiet. Also, it's fast, powerful and intelligent. What a dream car!
Replacing the battery is a good idea, customers can choose to buy a car without the battery and choose to rent the battery so that they do not need to worry about the wear and tear of their battery due to long hours of driving, while in the future there is an opportunity to replace the battery with a more advanced, longer range battery, and less waiting time for charging.
@@ruemignon 1678,85 euros OK j'en prends note mais t'inquiète vous allez pas rester au 35 heures 70h semaine où 280h mois minimum mois bon courage quand même..
@Hermes Literatus: dude...it is basically the same price as a Mercedes, this interior is nowhere near as an eqe, and not even an eqs. It is a competitor for tesla. Also here the best point is the software. And it also has a shit range, okay battery swap but i don't see how it will work in practice. If I would guess, the most succesful, and only succesful chineese car brand in europe will be Mg. They have very competitive price with Peugeot (stellantis), ford, japanese and Hyundai-Kia. At some models also with VW. (Id.3 class)
Bro, you gotta drive it before saying anything, you gonna change your mind. The Mercedes are shit in terms of build quality if you ever owned one before
@@chenmax9337 yes I own a c 300 diesel coupe. Never had better car in my life. My audi a3 sedan before was already perfect, but this is the best I ve ever experienced. My next will be an eqc sedan for sure, when it will be launched (2023/2024)
@@dnc3861 In China, NIO has built a lot of point-changing stations similar to gas stations, which are similar to automatic car washing devices. You only need to drive the car to the track. The changing station will automatically remove the battery on the car and replace a 100% battery. The replacement of the battery takes about 5-8 minutes, but I don't know the shape. Whether the formula can be realized in Europe. Of course, you can also choose to install a home charging pile like Tesla for self-acting battery charging.
That Sky view ET7 at the video end is sweet!..Beautiful car! Wow..You should include that short clip as the intro to your videos...Sweet angle...Well done
Last nail in European automotive industry! these are similar times like USA in 70s with Japanese and Korean automakers. More reasonable prices, reliability and in this case performance.
@@willijiem I don't know how you define reliability, but I'd be damn happy to drive an EV knowing that I aint gonna have to worry about things like broken gearbox, unreasonable engine oil consumption and other issues related to ICE.
@@ruemignon I generally written about Chinese cars. I also think EV cars are more reliable compared to ICE cars. We just not knowing about the reliability of Chinese cars. Maybe they will be fine maybe not, we don't know. Currently there are very few Chinese cars in Europe, and even fewer in the USA.
battery swap are good because others as on Tesla dont have that but battery dies in few years(15 years longevity if you don't drive it something) and new ones costs 20000 euro or $ while here you always get new ones and no worry for battery dies or minimal worry
@@Mr11ESSE111 1200km journey I only need swap battery three times in highway rest areas totally spend 20mins. If charging, it will take more than three hours.
@@tree8103 I agree it isn’t the best. But it does illustrate the rate of battery improvement to the point where replacement became quickly unnecessary. Vehicle batteries will follow a similar trajectory.
@@Mabeylater293 And when will the infrastructure follow? During peaks people were told to not charge their cars in US and China this year. How will it be once we all own cars with 800 Volt batteries?The cords are already super heavy and rigid and the newest versions need cables that are actively cooled. Meanwhile everyone is calling for energy storage to support green energy. There you have it. NIO has been successfully run swap stations in charge2grid mode and it will likely expand that to all swap stations in the near future.
They test it with 2 male adults sitting in the car so if you are driving alone, you are going to get around 3.5 should the weather allows the tires to perform their best.
@@retomertman1311 what?? The Yanks GENOCIDE indigenous native from North America dropped 2 nuclear bombs on Japanese children killed millions of Muslim and still they are the one always talking about human rights freedom and democracy 🤣
@@centralkingdom8141SURE WHERE DO YOU LIVE ? WHAT IS YOUR CULTURAL BACKGROUND ? THERE IS NOTHING WORSE TO COME THEN CHINESE PERVERT DOMINANCE ! READ ! MORE !
I really believe that car is a game changer in the car industry, just imagine that you dont have to worry about batterie degradation , by every swap the batterie is thoroughly checked and your ready to go AMAZING NIO.....Compared to Tesla after a few year you need to purchase a new batterie..........
Le véhicule a l’air sain, efficace et agréable ce qui ne semble pas être le cas de l’essayeur croisant les avant bras dans les virages et manquant de faire un tête à queue au démarrage
Yes. They do so in Norway and they will do so in Germany as well. During the beginning of subscription (not many swap stations) the swaps will be free. Sales model will follow soon.
Dumb question maybe but whats the point of the battery swap? You just swap it every 300 miles instead of charging it? Or why would you even change it instead of charging it?
NIO's cars can replace the battery, and the battery is automatically replaced within 5 minutes without getting out of the car. What's even cooler is that NIO supports the replacement of batteries of different capacities, which means that you can upgrade your battery at any time after buying a car, and support flexible upgrades by day, month, and year. The flexible upgrade means that you choose to buy the model with the smallest battery life, because even the smallest battery life is enough for your daily commute to get off work. Then you can temporarily upgrade your battery capacity for holiday travel (billed by the day), and after the holiday is over, you don't need to continue paying rent when you switch back to a small battery. Come to think of it, the battery supports physical replacement, meaning: 1. Faster charging speed, get a fully charged battery in 5 minutes 2. Flexible battery capacity strategy, you can temporarily upgrade the battery before going on a high-speed trip. It also only takes 5 minutes, no appointment required 3. There is no need to worry about the attenuation of the battery. The battery replacement network ensures the health of the battery. 4. Older vehicles can still enjoy battery packs with the latest technology. The vehicles released by NIO in 2018 can still be replaced with the latest and largest capacity batteries! Think about Tesla in the same period in 2018, it can replace the 150kwh battery in 2023, and the battery life is close to 1000km, how crazy!

I always wondered how cars with pop out door handles function under -15 Celsius temperature. What if door handles are (not the lock mechanism itself) frozen and you can't access the car even if it's "technically" unlocked? Is there a safeguard for that?
Well, there are two option, 1: door handle are heated, 2: enable door auto open in the app setting, it will open once registered phone are close to the car
A similar situation has been considered in the design. The door handle is designed to break the ice and pop up under the premise of covering no more than 5 mm of ice in an environment of minus 25 degrees.
This is true. I live in Germany and my Audi V8 diesel goes up to 300 km/h with fuel consumption around 8l at middle speeds about 120-160 km/h. So in any other country, I would give the NIO a chance, but in Germany I feel the limitation. If they would give 230, 240 km/h, that could make me think about it.
