Nio EL6 interior first impressions

[@dennista42069]

Love the EL6 it is the most balanced car by NIO in my opinion.

[@UshasRides]

Love the el6. Took one for a test drive last weekend and also the Tesla MY LR. Aside from the luxurious fit and finish of the EL6, the other primary difference was the road noise… significantly less in the EL6 than in the MY. For those reasons I’ve decided not to go down the Tesla route for my next car … if I can get a full subscription on the EL6 then I’m going for that. (In Sweden they are offering full subscription on EL7 right now… again a fantastic car but it’s a big beast and I’m not convinced I want to fork out over 12k/month SEK for this).

[@jamesl.o.h.6000]

Beautiful car. I love this colour ! It's such a refreshing look. The steering wheel is so refreshing and should win a design award too. Simply love this car ! ❤

[@moleyfunky7919]

NIO is something special

[@hassanj1861]

Also alot more swap stations, charged my NIO with swap and looked at the tesla owners sitting their bored LOL 3 min done and driving again. Good experience with NIO so far for me.

[@-Loth-]

Can't wait to watch your full review of both this and the Xpeng G9. I really hope Xpeng also let you have a car for the time you need very soon!

[@ellis777777]

Top quality interior and UI

[@GaryJohnWalker1]

Very nice detail design with not too many flashy gimmicks. Looks nice, a little bland and generic but shouldn't offend too many.

[@Donphilipe2]

Its a ET5 touring as an SUV with some extras (roof, matrix, headup, rearseat display and ventilation).

[@MrVeeBlog]

Color me impressed. Thanks for the quick overview, Bjorn. All the best.

[@D4M4K4]

Awesome! You forgot to test the new adjustable head rests. Can be moved out and in and even sideways!

[@EloiRodrigues-z3e]

This is way the German manufacturers and Ms Ursula von der Leyen are so worried about Chinese cars..

[@squeegee7]

That's true, but if the Chinese subsidize their exports it's not a fair market. Even if you take into account the wage difference between VW employees and the Chinese wage, sixh gives an idea why the western brands have to save money elsewhere. It's no longer a fair game, as the technology in EVs is quite simple Compared to fossil Motors

[@freddykrueger79]

​​@@squeegee7they are not subsidizing directly on exports... their exports prices are much higher than local Chinese sales... what they may be getting is unfair subsidies to companies, but not specifically for exports. but even European manufacturers get perks from local governments also for establishing in certain areas, for# of workers, etc...

[@captainhaddock9582]

EU is right. If not for Chinese goverment sponsoring Nio wouldn't last long selling their cars at 35k loss/car. This goes for a lot of the Chinese brands. The Chinese goverment wants as many foreign companies to go bankrupt to insure total dependance on China. Luckily Putin has finally shook the EU awake that totalitarian regimes should not be trusted.

[@fragu123]

@@squeegee7....hm, German manufacturers sell their products also a lot cheaper abroad, compared to their German prices. In China they are 30, 40% cheaper but also in the US. So we in Germany enable VW and Co. to succeed the global market based on aggressive pricing. Compared to this, I like the Chinese approach better: they sell cheap locally but increase pricing in Europe by 50%....

[@andrewwolf4430]

Nice not an all fugly black interior so damn many cars have how. I miss light interiors

[@Crychavoc]

Beautiful car! 😮

[@fragu123]

Great car, fantastic video too...

[@steinmar2]

I have to acknowledge this car though of all the the things i would think it would need - since the germans where heavily involved in designing this car you can see if the German manufacturer would not cost cut everything little thing we would get this from the fossil in electric but yeah i wish nio all the best, i already visited the munich development centre during my university education and talked to the guys! Top notch little bit oldschool like fossil thinking but steady although battery swap will not be as widespread as in china

[@randomname931]

just based on this video on the interior, it is MUCH better than my model Y. like embarrassing so for tesla when put up against this car.

[@PanLukash]

Amazing

[@Lucas-wp2ph]

Should be mentioned that the body uses a lot of megacastings. Currently one the only models on sale in Europe that has this together with model y and et5😊

[@TimDeWaele]

Something you maybe can mention in all your videos is the price and also the navigation capability. For example, does it add superchargers to your road trip automatically? Since Tesla does it so well I find it very important that you can go on road trip easily.

[@nonenone775]

In China does it. It let's you choose what do you want to add on your trip map like DC chargers and battery swap stations. It will add a waypoint based on your battery level and average consuption. If you choose a certain road that doesn't have chargers or swap stations it will warn you. You can plan the whole trip both automatically and manually on the phone and just sync it with the car. Bunch of options with the navigation. 80k km in ES8, nav was always doing what was supposed to do

[@nonenone775]

saying "In China" because i don't know what are the options in Europe, but anyways all of the fitures will be synchronised eventually

[@ruinert]

TB forgot to mention , its based on the ET5-plattform.. Its a kind of raised ET5T..

[@MKTED62]

that is the first Chinese car that I have liked the look of ..l hope it doesn't bong at you to much and that the driving experience is ok...we will see..

[@shanont]

I Get the feeling the dimentions is bit like id4? More fancy stuff in this car tho

[@y.w.79]

[@gianlucamucciarelli8848]

Nio cars are top 👍🏻

[@teajay6636]

Thanks for showing this nice car. But starting at 65.000€ with the small battery is not what I would call "a bargain".

[@btrhmmtpndksJam]

99% of the buyers don't buy the battery, they rent it (for the obvious reasons). Therefore the cost of the car will be lower.

[@Swimmerchild]

Is there no Nomi?

[@gadgetgasspoll]

Nomi is an optional

[@robertoc.3789]

🤩

[@John-Andersen]

Other than the counter-intuitive rear window controls, which should be: press forward (away from passenger) for UP & down (towards the passenger) for DOWN I would love to get one of these. Are they U.S.-bound?

[@HanYou2]

I don't understand what's counter-intuitive, it's the same button rotated 90 degrees, rather than press down for down you press forward, and instead of pull up you pull backwards.

[@John-Andersen]

Personal preference, I suppose. When I pull a button I expect the window to raise and vice versa.

[@Jajalaatmaar]

Nio cars are nice, but too expensive compared to the (Chinese) competition here in the Netherlands. The Xpeng G9 beats both the EL7 and EL6 at a lower price. EL6 long range with battery purchase is just as expensive as a G9 performance with the comfort package (€77K). But the G9 gets air suspension, is bigger, more efficient, charges faster, gets a passenger screen and 4 massage seats and fully decked out in options. They get about the same range. The EL6 with battery purchase is also €77k. But the comfort pack adds €2500. Roof mounts, €443. Lounge seat, €1000. All included in the G9 price. The EL7 gets such bad range even with big battery that it's not worth comparing, and it's more expensive.

[@Planetside2Simon8989]

When power swap infrastructure is more prevalent, I think the NIO will be worth it a lot more

[@Jajalaatmaar]

The swapping is cool for sure, but that's a pretty big if. Meanwhile they're burning money on a phone. If you charge fast enough, will being able to swap in a few places really be interesting? 20 minutes every 3 and a half hours on a long drive isn't much.@@Planetside2Simon8989

[@DDGGVVMM]

G9 built quality and material are nowhere as nice as Nio. As for the design, although subjective, Nio looks way higher end than xpeng in my opinion. The difference is quite substantial when I compare them in person back to back while in china.

[@Jajalaatmaar]

That's just not true imo. The Autogefühl guy said it had better materials and build quality than a Mercedes EQE SUV. But to each their own, I thought the Xpeng G9 offered the most value when I compared all the cars, so I bought it. Also, if you care so much about the inside, the Xpeng G9 has a passenger screen which is nice, we use it quite a lot. What about the Nio interior beats it? @@DDGGVVMM

[@r09d98]

Xpeng interiors feel very cheap though, it's not even close. It's like getting the fancy all-in-one mixer with 24 more features and shiny plastic chrome buttons everywhere, over a Kitchen Aid.

[@tridrean]

❤❤❤

[@murungicreative5444]

These headlights were not designed for Nordic climate, they are like a bucket that will accumulate snow in winter and reduce visibility in dark winter nights. I know this as I owned a MG Marvel R with similarly located headlights.

[@ДмитрийХодневич-б4н]

Thank you for reviewing. As far as I know this car does not have AC charging option. Is it true?

[@svdblom]

No, AC and DC

[@sefrasus7360]

_Fortunately_ no headlight washer. I have it in my old A8, it gets activated automatically if the headlights are on and the lever is pulled for at least 1 second. Another pump, another set of hoses etc.. more stuff that can break down. I try to use it

[@futureatob6920]

Someone please tell about the price bargain (prisbomben). Is it just for Norway?

[@yonglin8177]

In Europe, where Nio is available, the price is approximately €20,000 lower than the EL7🤩

[@futureatob6920]

[@hakan2812]

Please, if you could do a comparison between cars that can actually load/carry stuff not only with width/length and volym measurements in mind but actually max load in kg. Some EV cars is almost fully loaded already if they have 3-4 passengers and can't carry any extra load/luggage. So in short... please include curbweight and total weight in your spreadsheets so we can see how much max load they have. And maybe a test how much less range it has if fully loaded? Very important for us swedes that go to Germany and stock up on booze. ;)

[@r09d98]

The payload in most cars is 500kg+, 650kg on the ET5 for example. You're not really hitting that with 3-4 people (one would hope). Older Teslas had a much lower limit of ~390kg, not the case here. In any case this information is easily searchable online, no need to add such details to a review video.

[@hakan2812]

@@r09d98 well with that logic they dont have to say anything that we can search for ourself then do they? Will be short and boring videos. A small popup with weightinfi is all it takes. And no, manytimes the payload is not that easy to come over. I have contacted both Volvo and polestar for example. They had either no information or wrong information about curbweight and total weight. (They thanked me and have now corrected it) And in some cases as the Tesla you mentioned i discovered yould not have any extra load to speak of at all with passengers. (And a board in the cargo floor that was certified for 40kg max payload or something.

[@r09d98]

@@hakan2812 tip: 'Polestar 2 max payload', google extracts the answer from the results. They also have a dedicated page for this that is the first result for 'polestar weight'.

Really nice car, but not a Six or Seven Seater.😢 I have a Tesla 3 and we are becoming our 3 kid, it is a surprise kid. 😂 Know i need to trade my model 3 for a bigger one, we do a lot of Vacation with the Car with big distances. Ca. 1400km one way, of course i cannot forget the Cat, she comes to. 😂 We thougt on the Model X but it's out of our Budget. I would say that we have a max. budget of 70000 CHF inkl. the sale of my Model 3. Does anyone has an Idea? Because we are thinking to go for the new Skoda Kodiaq, and i don't wan't go back to Fossil. 😢 Thx

[@RobertPuklin]

Model Y? Fits 3 child seats. Went the same 3->Y path. Y is much more spacious and the boot space is huge.

Xpeng is cheapy and can't swap. Interior is hard plastic.

[@-Loth-]

lol, have you even tried the G9? Swap could possible be awesome, but in Europe as of know, it isn't. It will probably take years before its fully flexible without silly fees if you what to change battery size.

[@QK..]

@@-Loth- no one want to drive an Xpeng in Europe. Because of the brandname. It sounds cheapy.

[@SuperEgleh]

No thanks. It might seem like a good deal now, but the aftermarket situation for these cars 4-5-6 years and more down the road, a big question mark. It is a good thing the legacy automakers, that have a well established dealer and workshop network all over europe, already have interesting models, and more in the pipeline over the next few years. on top of that, why put money in dictator pockets, this is a threat to jobs and competence all over the western world.

[@r09d98]

Their subscription pricing is pretty good - about the same TCO as owning the car for 3-4 years.

[@kentfusag5458]

Bargain? It´s nice but expensive I would say.
