Morning Post Comment: It's not easy

Another car company is about to raise prices, and the discounts of many of its models are weakened to keep up with BBA?

　　Recently, it was reported on the Internet that Weilai's popular models ET5/ET5T and ES6/EC6 will increase prices after July 22, of which ET5/ET5T will rise by 3,000 yuan, while ES6/EC6 will increase by 5,000 yuan. This change marks a new adjustment in NIO's marketing strategy.

　　The staff at NIO's Zhengzhou Cidiport store confirmed the news and explained in detail the reasons behind the price increase. The staff said that the price increase is not a direct increase in the price of vehicles, but through the adjustment of existing preferential policies, which is manifested in a significant reduction in the discount of existing cars. Taking ET5/5T as an example, the original 10,000 yuan replacement subsidy, 8,000 yuan optional fund and 6,000 yuan discount for existing cars will be reduced to only 3,000 yuan for existing cars after 22 days; The discount for ES6/EC6 cars will also be reduced from 8,000 yuan to 3,000 yuan, and this new policy will be uniformly implemented in directly operated stores across the country.

　　Seals excel when it comes to space. Conner says its rear seats are among the best in their class, with kneeroom on par with the Hyundai IONIQ 6. He also said that the overall interior of the seal has a Genesis-level luxury, and the space is closer to that of the Model S than the Model 3.

　　Conner also particularly likes the seal's infotainment system. Users can switch the orientation of the screen from horizontal to vertical and vice versa as needed, and the screen itself is responsive and smooth.
