NIO ES8 - Is Officially Approved For Sale In Europe<br /><br />NIO announced that it has received European Whole Vehicle Type Approval (EWVTA) for the NIO ES8 all-electric SUV, which was an essential foundation for NIO's entry into Norway and the European market at large.<br />It means that the ES8 can now be sold and get license plate registrations in all EU countries (and some EU-related like Norway).<br /><br />NIO is another Chinese brand that is ready to enter the European market, following Xpeng, BYD and Aiways, to name just a few EV manufacturers, as well as SAIC's MG that added plug-ins on top of its conventional lineup.<br /><br />The NIO ES8, in particular, will be sold first in Norway, starting in September and then probably it will spread across Europe - at least to a few of largest EV markets.NIO will offer the ES8 through a direct sales and service network, and its comprehensive offer will include NIO House, NIO App for European users, Power Swap Stations, and NIO Life services.<br /><br />During the first five months of 2021, NIO has sold some 7,451 ES8 in China so we guess that even a few thousands sold initially in Europe would be an important boost for the company. <br />
