NIO display cars do have discounts, but the overall discount range is not substantial. Below is detailed information about NIO: Overview: NIO is a global intelligent electric vehicle brand, established in November 2014. Its main products include the NIO ES6, NIO ES8, NIO EC6, NIO EVE, and NIO EP9. NIO is committed to creating a joyful lifestyle for users by providing high-performance intelligent electric vehicles and an ultimate user experience. Additional Information: The name 'NIO' signifies 'A New Day.' 'NIO' expresses the brand's vision of pursuing a better tomorrow and blue skies, as well as creating a joyful lifestyle for users. The new logo consists of a sky symbolizing openness and the future, and a road symbolizing action and progress.

I've been thinking about changing my car recently and specifically researched the discounts on NIO's display vehicles. The salesperson said there are indeed discounts for display cars, but the amount varies depending on the model and how long it's been on display. For the ET5 I'm interested in, a car displayed for two months can get a discount of about 20,000 RMB, plus 30,000 points to spend on accessories in the NIO store. The display cars are well-maintained, with protective films still on the seats, but you should check the production date and mileage. The one I test-drove showed only 50 km on the odometer, with no scratches on the interior or paint. The only issue is that you can't change the configuration of display cars - they're all top-spec versions. If you can find a suitable inventory display car, you can save enough compared to ordering new to cover the cost of a charging station.

As a long-time owner, I saved 40,000 yuan last year by purchasing an EC6 show car. The discount on show cars mainly depends on the display period. For example, cars displayed in the showroom for over three months offer the biggest discounts, ranging from over 20,000 to 50,000 yuan. When buying a show car, check for tire wear and screen scratches. My car had some oil stains on the steering wheel, but after a deep clean by the dealership, it looked almost new. NIO show cars also come with lifetime warranty and battery swap benefits, but the financial options may have less interest-free periods compared to new cars. Currently, they are clearing 2023 inventory, and some show car discounts combined with regional subsidies make it even more cost-effective. I recommend negotiating directly with the store manager, as show cars usually come with waived license fees and insurance discounts.

When accompanying a friend to the NIO House to order a car, we discussed the display car policy. The salesperson frankly admitted that all display cars are discounted, especially during the end-of-quarter sales push when the discounts are even greater. The specific discount depends on the display duration, with cars displayed for over six months negotiable up to a 15% discount. Display cars are kept under 200 kilometers, and a battery health monitoring report can be requested. My friend eventually chose an ET7 display car, saving 32,000 yuan with an additional NIO Life gift package included. NIO handles display cars transparently, with full disclosure of maintenance records, making them more reliable than second-hand platforms.
