firefly Cumulative Deliveries Exceed 90,000 Units

On October 16, 2026, firefly, NIO’s high-end smart electric compact car brand, announced the delivery of its 90,000th vehicle in Zhengzhou. This milestone brings cumulative deliveries past 90,000 units, marking a new chapter in the brand’s growth.

The latest delivery milestone reflects firefly’s continued sales momentum. In September 2026, firefly delivered 7,327 vehicles, a 26.9% year-over-year increase and a new monthly record. Third-quarter deliveries reached 18,950 units, setting another quarterly record. With cumulative deliveries surpassing 70,000 units on July 16, 80,000 on September 1, and now 90,000 units, firefly is reaching each 10,000-unit milestone in less time, underscoring the brand’s accelerating sales growth.

Alongside faster deliveries, firefly’s market share continues to grow. The brand has led China’s high-end compact car segment in market share for 16 consecutive months, with the figure exceeding 70% in nine of those months. Its share rose to over 74% in August, reinforcing its leading position.

In addition to its continued growth in deliveries and market share, firefly is also strengthening its recharging and product experiences. As of October 14, 101 fifth-generation Power Swap Stations supported battery swapping for firefly, covering 55 cities across 24 provinces in China. As battery swapping becomes increasingly integrated into users’ everyday mobility, it offers a more convenient way to keep their vehicles powered.

On October 14, firefly rolled out aster 2.1.0, the latest version of its smart system. The update brings 19 new and enhanced features across three key areas: the smart cabin, AI companion lumo, and the overall vehicle experience. By bringing intelligence, entertainment, and thoughtful details into real-world driving scenarios, aster 2.1.0 delivers an experience that is smarter, more fun, and more in tune with its users.

From an accelerating delivery pace and growing market share, to an evolving recharging network and product experience, firefly is leveraging its capabilities comprehensively to bring the high-end compact car to a broader market. Looking ahead, it will continue to enhance its products and experiences around users’ needs, growing together with its users in the spirit of “freedom to glow.”
