We've organized this article into specific sections for easier navigation. Click the links below to jump to different areas or read on for the full article. Additionally, we offer an overview of the full specifications, an image gallery, detailed information about charging performance, and some online reviews. Our sections include:

Performance

The Nio ET5 Touring delivers a maximum power of 480 kW (653 hp / 644 bhp) and a total torque of 850 Nm (627 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 3.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 200 km/h (124 mph).

Battery, Range, and Charging

The Nio ET5 Touring is available with two battery options, each offering different specifications and performance metrics.

75kWh

The battery has a gross capacity of 75.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 70.5 kWh, with a 4.5 kWh buffer (6.0%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 386 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system, aligning with industry standards.

This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.

Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range varies between 560 to 540 km (348-336 miles), depending on the specific configuration and options, such as wheel size. Larger wheels can increase energy consumption and subsequently reduce the overall range.

The vehicle's energy consumption is rated at 12.6 kWh/100 km for the base model and 13.1 kWh/100 km for the top-tier model under the WLTP test cycle.

For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 140 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 69 minutes, while a typical 10% to 80% charge takes about 29 minutes with an average charging speed of 101 kW.

Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 2% to 58%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 100 kW, with each charging session taking about 24 minutes and 40 seconds.

In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 23 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 9 hours and 56 minutes, needing four charging stops from 2% to 59%, totaling 96 minutes of charging time.

100kWh

The battery has a gross capacity of 100.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 90.0 kWh, with a 10.0 kWh buffer (10.0%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 358 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system, aligning with industry standards.

This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.

Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range varies between 456 to 419 km (283-260 miles), depending on the specific configuration and options, such as wheel size. Larger wheels can increase energy consumption and subsequently reduce the overall range.

The vehicle's energy consumption is rated at 12.6 kWh/100 km for the base model and 13.1 kWh/100 km for the top-tier model under the WLTP test cycle.

For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 180 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 70 minutes, while a typical 10% to 80% charge takes about 30 minutes with an average charging speed of 127 kW.

Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 1% to 78%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 112 kW, with each charging session taking about 37 minutes and 58 seconds.

In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 23 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 9 hours and 34 minutes, needing two charging stops from 1% to 79%, totaling 75 minutes of charging time.
