Nio was definitely not the only electric vehicle stock to fall on Monday as growth stocks across the board were trending lower. It was partially due to broader weakness from the markets as all three major indices either finished flat or slightly in the red. Nio rivals XPeng (NYSE:XPEV) and Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) fell by 2.12% and 1.81% respectively on Monday, while electric vehicle industry leader Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) continued its sell-off, falling by a further 1.94%.

One of Nio’s North American rivals, Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) was one of the only automakers to finish Monday’s session in the green. Lucid reported its first earnings report as a publicly-traded company and also received the award for MotorTrend’s 2022 Car of the Year. Lucid only started delivering its vehicle at the end of October, but the luxury vehicles have been turning heads and receiving rave reviews across the internet. Shares of Lucid closed Monday up 2.16%.
