EV IN FOCUS

For many companies , the emphasis has been around charging , but NIO has taken an alternative approach in addressing the cons of charging . The NIO ES8 is one of the latest automobiles to be introduced by the company and works hand-in-hand with its vehicle battery swapping stations .
Owners of the ES8 will simply park up at the correct swapping station and let the rest take care of itself .
POWER IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF EVERY EV Aside from innovation , the car leverages sustainable design principles and incorporates innovative technologies that enable intuitive driving . Achieving 0 to 60mph in just 4.9 seconds , the ES8 is a family-sized SUV — and a fast one at that . The speed is also adjustable through the digital centre console , which allows the driver to select slower acceleration in exchange for more range .
