Nio held its second annual Power Day event recently and revealed some important updates for its charging network and battery swap stations. After announcing its 1 millionth battery swap and 1,000th battery swap station, Nio also revealed that its third generation battery swap technology will be ready to go by the end of this year to the beginning of 2023. Nio also reported that by 2025, it will have battery swap networks on nine vertical highways, nine horizontal highways, and in 19 of the largest urban areas of China.

NIO stock forecast

While Nio investors have celebrated its recent successes, the company is still not out of the woods in terms of the rising cases of COVID-19 in China. Investors are hoping that the weekend will find some reprieve, and that the Anhui Province of China where Nio operates a production facility, will stay clear of any government-imposed lockdowns.
