AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/19 Report--

Li Bin once said that the ES8 is a high-performance car, and its battery life is actually OK. "wherever gasoline cars can go in China today, NIO can support our ES8."

However, for Li Bin's remark that "ES8 can go wherever gasoline cars can go", many netizens still do not believe that some car owners have launched a "long trip to the Northeast" during the Spring Festival. The owner recorded the journey into an article, which mentioned "Lulai ES8, an electric vehicle burning 35,40L diesel per hundred kilometers". The article caused a heated discussion on the Internet, and today Li Bin sent a thank-you letter to the NIO electricity team. the letter responded to the saying that "Xilai ES800km burns 40 liters of diesel fuel": fabricate facts to smear the electricity service of NIO.

It is understood that during the "long trip to the Northeast" organized by the car owners, NIO sent two staff members to drive a diesel version of Iveco's "streetcar" to replenish the power of the ES8, which came from a diesel generator on the charger. Because of the limitations of electric cars, the ES8 has to be electrified every 150km or so. According to the owner, in the end, "for every 100 kilometers driven by NIO, it will consume 35 to 40 liters of diesel!"

A screenshot obtained by the media today shows that Li Bin sent a long message today to thank the Wei Lai power-up team and the power-up service team for their efforts over the past three weeks. and responded to the previous time network about "the consumption of 35-40 liters of diesel fuel" on the network.

In an online email, Li Bin said that from the panoramic view of ES8's power-up service, the proportion of diesel-powered mobile plug-in cars was less than 1 per cent. "people with ulterior motives use this proportion of less than 1% instead of all power-up services to calculate the so-called fuel consumption, and exaggerate the figures in the calculation, which is really confusing. This is purely for the sake of traffic and ignore the facts to smear, please do not take it to heart. "

In addition, Li Bin also revealed in the email that the total mileage of all users during the holiday period totaled more than 14.8 million kilometers. "based on the trust in the service of NIO home appliances, whether it is driving home for the Spring Festival, visiting relatives and friends or self-driving travel, nearly 1/3 of users choose to drive ES8 for medium-and long-distance travel."

As for the authenticity of the email, the media reported that it had been confirmed by employees in a certain area of NIO, but NIO officials said that "the email has not yet been received."
