NIO launches racing-themed Champion Edition models, 100-kWh packs
NIO launched updated Champion Edition versions of the 2026 ET5, ET5 Touring and EC6 on June 15, with deliveries beginning June 20. The ET5 and ET5 Touring Champion Edition start at 313,000 yuan (about $46,280) including a 100-kWh battery pack, and add racing-inspired exterior and interior detailing. NIO is dangling incentives - a free zero-gravity seat upgrade on the EC6 and a buy-one-get-one year of battery rental - for buyers who lock orders by June 30 to shore up demand for its entry models.
