How many kilometers can a NIO 70kWh battery drive?
2 Answers
NIO 70kWh can drive 450-500 kilometers. Here is some relevant information about NIO: Introduction to NIO: Founded in November 2014, NIO was jointly initiated by Li Bin, Liu Qiangdong, Li Xiang, Tencent, Hillhouse Capital, Shunwei Capital, and other internet companies and entrepreneurs who deeply understand users. It is committed to providing high-performance smart electric vehicles and an ultimate user experience to create a joyful lifestyle for users. NIO's development philosophy: "NIO" expresses the brand's pursuit of a better tomorrow and a blue sky to create a joyful lifestyle for users. The new logo consists of the sky, symbolizing openness and the future, and the road, symbolizing action and progress, interpreting the NIO brand.
The actual range of NIO's 70kWh battery isn't fixed—it depends on your driving style, road conditions, and outside temperature. I drive an ES6 model, and for daily city commutes with AC or heating on, it can reach up to around 380 km. On highways at 120 km/h, the increased wind resistance drains the battery faster, limiting the range to about 350 km. In winter, battery performance drops further, potentially reducing the range to 320 km. Eco mode can slightly improve the range, pushing it just over 400 km. I recommend planning trips with some buffer and avoiding pushing to the limit to prevent running out of charge midway. Also, regular battery maintenance is crucial; avoid charging beyond 100% to maintain range. Overall, 350-450 km is the normal range, but based on my experience, staying within 400 km is the safer bet.
