In-depth intelligence on China's EV sector and its impact on Europe
Nio Firefly's refreshed model launches 7 April 2026 with a motor power increase from 105 kW to 120 kW, cutting 0‑100 km/h time to 7.9 seconds. Existing owners receive the upgrade via free OTA update. The compact EV is already on sale in Europe from €29,900, with 50,000 cumulative deliveries globally.
Firefly has delivered 50,000 units within 11 months, with the final 10,000 arriving in just over two months. Fifth-generation battery swap stations are now preparing for deployment in Germany, potentially giving Firefly a service differentiator that no European competitor in its segment offers.
