On June 6, J.D. Power, the consumer insight and market research institution, released its 2024 China New Energy Vehicle-Initial Quality Study (NEV-IQS). NIO ES8 and ET5/ET5T ranked first respectively in the premium BEV and midsize BEV car segments.

The NEV-IQS measures new-vehicle quality by examining problems experienced by NEV owners within the first two to six months of ownership, covering 236 problem symptoms across 10 categories, namely, exterior, interior, driving experience, features/controls/displays, infotainment system, climate, seats, powertrain, driving assistance, and battery/charging.

The quality of NEVs is measured as problems per 100 vehicles (PP100). The lower the value, the better the quality. Eventually, NIO ES8 ranked first in the premium BEV segment at 177 PP100, and ET5/ET5T led the midsize BEV car segment with 185 PP100.
