Chinese EV makers hosted their vehicle delivery reports for the month of July during the Asian trading session. Nio managed to post a 26.7% year over year increase with a total delivery number of 10,052. While this figure grew from 2021, it actually fell on a sequential basis from the June delivery number of nearly 13,000, representing a 22% sequential decline. Both Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) and XPeng (NYSE:XPEV) had a similar performance, improving from 2021 but coming in lower than in June. XPeng delivered 11,524 vehicles, the most out of the three companies.

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.
