$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ NIO - which poster used to always boost NIO? This one is for you.
Nio, a major producer of electric vehicles in China and Europe, trades at just 0.4 times next year's sales and 94% below its all-time high. But NIO isn't a small and speculative EV maker. It produces a wide range of electric sedans and SUVs, and it delivered 326,028 vehicles in 2025. Its vehicles are equipped with removable batteries that can be swapped out at its battery-swapping stations as a faster alternative to conventional chargers.
Nio's stock tumbled amid concerns regarding the costly expansion of its battery-swapping network and the production of its own first-party automotive chips. Intense competition also limited its pricing power and compressed its margins. However, NIO finally turned profitable on an adjusted basis in the first half of 2026, and its stock could soar if more investors value it like Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) - which trades at 12 times next year's sales.
