NIO (NYSE:NIO) reports surpassing 100 million cumulative battery swaps across its network. The company sets new single day battery swap records during the 2026 Spring Festival period. NIO initiates a large scale software recall affecting more than 246,000 vehicles due to a screen related issue flagged by Chinese regulators.
NIO, the premium electric vehicle maker listed on the NYSE under ticker NIO, has built its brand around Battery as a Service, where drivers can quickly exchange depleted packs instead of relying only on charging. Crossing 100 million battery swaps and setting new festival period records gives investors a sense of how widely this model is being used across the company’s installed base. At the same time, a software recall touching over 246,000 vehicles shows how closely NIO’s business is connected to complex systems inside the car.
For investors, the combination of record usage of battery swap stations and a broad recall highlights both the potential benefits and the operational complexity in NIO’s approach. Future company disclosures and operational updates may help clarify how this level of service utilization and the handling of the recall relate to customer loyalty, regulatory confidence and the company’s brand position in the EV market.
