Editor-in-chief Steve Fowler thinks Nio is a brand that could really shake up the premium elite<\/h2>\n


\n<\/p>\n

I came away from the Shanghai motor show in April with one brand in particular sticking in my mind: Nio. This Chinese start-up seemed to blend the best of east and west, taking clear learnings from those entering the electric car space before it, especially Tesla.<\/p>\n

Like the American firm, Nio has a young, charismatic leader \u2013 William Li \u2013 whom the brand\u2019s fans worship and whoop at. In spite of being a much newer company, it already has a bigger range of cars than Tesla. But software is at its heart, while technology \u2013 including self-driving systems \u2013 is also very much to the fore.<\/p>\n
