“Beyond the strong order growth, we are proud to reach a milestone quarter with respect to the key financial metrics of the company, highlighted with the historically high vehicle gross margin of 9.7%, lowest-ever operating losses and more importantly, a positive cash flow from operations for the first time in our history,” said Nio CEO, William Li.
Nio said that it expects to deliver 11,000-11,500 vehicles in Q3, which would represent an approximately 130% increase year on year.
“The current constraints on the productions will be lifted in the near future and we are confident that our production capacity can meet the accelerated demand of our models,” Li said.
