In China’s new energy vehicle market, NIO is undoubtedly a very special company. As the leader of China’s previous new car manufacturing force, it has attracted much attention from the market. Recently, the famous investment bank CICC announced that it will maintain NIO’s industry rating. What is worth watching? How should we analyze it?

CICC has recently maintained an industry-outperforming rating for NIO, which has undoubtedly brought a certain boost to NIO, which is currently in relative difficulties. As the most well-known new energy vehicle company, where is the hope of NIO?

First of all, NIO, as one of the leading enterprises in China’s new energy vehicle industry, has won wide recognition in the market for its innovative product design and unique user experience. However, with the intensification of market competition and the continuous rise of its operating costs, NIO has fallen into a relative dilemma in recent years. The key problem is that NIO’s initial investment is huge, including R&D, production, sales and service, which leads to the company’s long-term loss and raises questions about its sustainable development ability. Despite the challenges, CICC continues to give NIO a rating of “outperforming the industry”. The reasons behind this are worth in-depth discussion.

Secondly, the reason why CICC continues to be optimistic about NIO is largely due to NIO’s innovative technology - power exchange technology. At a time when battery technology has not yet made a breakthrough, power exchange technology is considered to be the best solution to the endurance mileage problem of electric vehicles. By changing the power station, users can complete the battery replacement in a short time to achieve fast energy replenishment, which greatly improves the convenience of electric vehicles.

Power exchange technology requires large-scale investment, but its advantages are obvious. First of all, power exchange technology can reduce the charging waiting time of users and improve the efficiency of electric vehicles. Secondly, power exchange technology can help solve the problem of battery life and prolong the service life of electric vehicles. Finally, power exchange technology can also help the ladder utilization of batteries, improve the utilization rate of battery resources, and reduce the use of electric vehicles. The cost of use.

Third, this model requires large-scale infrastructure construction and investment, but once a scale effect is formed, it will bring a significant competitive advantage to NIO. The promotion and application of power exchange technology have also been supported and recognized by many enterprises. For example, large enterprises such as Ningde Times have begun to cooperate with NIO to lay out power exchange networks. In addition, some enterprises in the new energy vehicle industry chain, such as Geely Automobile and Chang’an Automobile, have also seen the potential of power exchange mode and have joined this field one after another. These cooperations not only provide the necessary funds and technical support for NIO, but also lay the foundation for the popularization and standardization of power exchange technology.

Fourth, however, as an infrastructure, power exchange has a long investment cycle and low revenue output. This means that NIO must consider how to balance income and expenditure, so that there will be more hope. On the one hand, NIO needs to continue to invest in promoting power exchange technology and expanding its market share. On the other hand, NIO also needs to find other ways to make profits, such as increasing revenue by providing better services and developing new products. At the same time, NIO also needs to control its costs to reduce losses.

Therefore, NIO’s road will not be smooth. It needs to effectively manage its financial situation while maintaining technological innovation to ensure that it survives in the fierce market competition. For investors, they need to pay close attention to NIO’s business conditions and market dynamics in order to make informed investment decisions.
