The prices above are before any government or local subsidies - in China there is a grant available for NEV (New Energy Vehicle) buyers if the price of the car is lower than RMB300,000. Interestingly enough Nio is exempt from this rule because all its models come with swappable battery packs. It means a discount of RMB11,340 ($1,700)for the cars with 75kWh battery and RMB12,600 ($1,900) for cars with the 100kWH battery. The Chinese government has announced that 2022 is the last year of any subsidies for NEVs.
