Kyle drives a NIO ET7 for the first time around Oslo, Norway. This is the dual motor 100kWh version with battery subscription so it can use the battery swap stations. Let’s see how it is!

    I was pretty bummed we couldn’t get the battery swap to work. Although I’m not convinced on the idea, I think it would be fun to try it! I hope we can film the process soon - will try before heading back to the US!
  • @silys5253
    Im a BMW 7 series owner and I tested the ET7 couple weeks back. Im very impressed of the ET7, I love the brand and I love swapping.
  • @rune54321
    The anti China comments is such a shame. Many of the products you use daily has been made in China. NIO has quality products and a quality brand.
  • @mistertee5000
    I hope Nio comes to Canada. I could care less who owns the company or where it's made as long as it's good quality and the company is going to stick around. If a car brand does well in a country with a billion people, I think it'll do fine in the rest of the world.

    I'm old enough to remember when people said they would never buy Japanese cars. We called them Jap Crap, or Rice Burners. Now we love them! People accept change, albeit reluctantly at first. The same will happen with Chinese cars. The cars are top quality and have cutting edge tech. It's a no brainer.
  • @AlphaDewolf
    NOMI is the cutest and friendliest little driver assistant I've ever seen!
  • @LiChen-sn4il
    I own an ES8 in China. I really love the battery swapping experience. I am also a NIO stock holder. Not a lot of people are aware that, another good thing about battery swapping stations is they also provide super high voltage charging without too much support from the power infrastructure because it has the electricity capacity stored in all those batteries. It could provide supercharging for EVs of other brands.
  • @tipoomaster
    Great looking car inside and out, and a lot of well thought out software features. I'd like to see the ET5 in Canada!
  • @SiuLeung
    Being able to swap the battery is a good idea. Even if you never use it and just charge the battery like other EV owners, you know you can easily get a new battery if your battery dies. Another youtuber who recently replaced their Model 3 battery paid 13k for a replacement. $2-3k of that cost was just for the labor. I'm sure Nio would be willing you sell you the battery and replacement would just take minutes. So with a repair/maintenance stand point, it's pretty awesome.
  • @Neojhun
    The multiple microphones spread out is for Location sensing. That was the digital assistant Nomi can figure out which passenger is asking for commands. I guess if you say "open the window" in the rear left passenger seat it'll open the nearest window automatically.
  • @KenKnowledge
    As a car entusiast this might be one of the best car maker that i've ever seen, full stop. Those ET models really gets me excited, thats for sure.
  • Never seen a NIO before. This actually looks very good. Would be one of the best looking EV's in the US market if they make it here.
  • Battery swap means NIO can provide the Battery as a Service This allows buyers to rent the battery, and pay a lot less upfront for the vehicle, it also means no battery degradation problem, as well as maintaining good resale value Battery swap is seriously being pushed in China, where not everyone can have a dedicated parking spot and charger, especially when EV ownership rate increases The fact that CATL is moving into modular battery swap technology, means it's a serious direction to go
  • @djbaaz
    I have tried it here in Denmark Copenhagen. And it is amazing. 😍👍🏾
  • Dude....glad you got to do this review....many people will see this video
  • @MrDancermgl
    Actually roof mounted sensors are cool and not weird though ! It is showing a modern design !
  • I'am sorry Tesla 🤷 Wow wow wow NIO!! 🫣❤️ Greetings from Serbia! 🇷🇸
  • Very interesting review, per usual. And Alyssa killed it on camera, per usual.
  • I am fine with the sensors up high. It makes sense to me for them to be there. The car does look great. I hope other companies step up also. This makes me think the Japanese companies will struggle going forward the most.
  • The Chinese has measured 0-100 to 3.5s which is just as fast as my/your model3 perf. You cant say its slow even though its no plaid 😅 its half the price of a plaid after all. It turns out Nio measures acc times with three adults and baggage in the car. Ive ordered a white it will arrive in three weeks time. Cant wait 🥳😁
