On June 12th, NIO founder and chairman Li Bin stated that reducing the weight of new energy vehicles has great user value, but it is not as simple as it seems to achieve this goal. He believes that lightweighting is a comprehensive result of cost, technology, engineering, and product definition. According to Li Bin's estimates, after the basic definition of the vehicle is completed, it will cost approximately 1000 yuan to reduce the weight by 1 kilogram in the final sprint stage of lightweighting. He said that reducing from 2 tons to 1.9 tons is relatively easy, but the cost per kilogram will increase as you continue to reduce from 1.9 tons further down. (Yicai)
