Nio managed to post a 26.7% year over year increase with a total delivery number of 10,052.

NIO stock forecast
It is widely believed in China that Nio’s first foray into the smartphone industry will come as soon as 2023. Nio CEO William Li has noted that Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) getting into the EV business with iPhone integration was a major reason why Nio decided to start developing a smartphone for its own electric vehicles. No official date has yet been released by Nio for the launch of its phone.
