NIO has been on a scorching streak the previous few months. November gross sales didn’t proceed the development of setting a brand new month-to-month gross sales file month after month, but it surely was NIO’s second highest promoting month on file.
With 36,275 NIO automobiles delivered final month, the corporate had 76.3% development over November 2024’s complete.
Splitting out these deliveries by model, the NIO model scored 18,393 deliveries, the family-oriented ONVO model scored 11,794, and the high-end small electrical automotive model firefly scored 6,088.

The corporate is now very near reaching 1 million cumulative car gross sales. With 949,457 deliveries thus far, it’s most definitely the corporate will attain that milestone in January. Although, an enormous December might convey the achievement in 2025 — that’s only a bit unlikely because the firm’s file gross sales month, October, logged simply 40,397 deliveries. Splitting out these ~950,000 car gross sales, the cumulative model gross sales are as follows:
- NIO — 797,712
- ONVO — 119,415
- firefly — 32,330
Apparently, whereas NIO and XPENG appeared to observe related development traits for a lot of their lives, it just lately regarded like XPENG was going to run away from NIO. Nevertheless, their November deliveries have been virtually equivalent, and their gross sales charts normally are wanting extra related once more.

I’ve a bit extra religion in XPENG’s development plan and growth, however each EV corporations have been doing effectively, and I wouldn’t be stunned in the event that they each reached 1 million gross sales a yr finally.
