If you want to know the difference between Nio's different replenishment facilities, you can check the text at the back of the table.

The figures of the below table are from the information published by Nio on Weibo and the official app.

Abbreviations in the table:

Swap = battery swap stations

Chargers = supercharging stations

Destination = destination charging stations

Third-party = Access to third-party charging piles

For those who are not sure what the difference is between these facilities, here is a brief explanation of them.

Battery swap stations are Nio's signature replenishment facility and it is currently the only company offering such models to the general consumer. There are also companies in China that offer models with battery swap support, but for the cab market.

Nio's supercharging stations are facilities similar to Tesla's Supercharger stations, which are the primary way that other EV makers provide users with replenishment in public places.

Information on Nio's website shows that its supercharging stations can provide a maximum of 180 kW of power and 250A of current, and that vehicles can be charged from 20 percent to 80 percent in half an hour.

The destination charging stations are mainly used in scenarios where vehicles are parked for longer periods of time, such as hotels and offices.

Nio uses home charging piles that are also available to customers in the destination charging stations, with two types of power: 7 kW and 20 kW.

For a standard range model with a 75-kWh battery pack, it takes 11.5 hours to charge from 10 percent to 100 percent using a 7-kW charger and 4 hours using a 20-kW charger.
