Citing a shortage of rear-seat entertainment expansion chips, NIO will switch to a revised hardware package for ES8s rolling off the line from 22 Dec 2025. The update drops USB local video playback and USB-C video-out to external monitors, while wireless mirroring and USB lossless audio remain intact. Customers who lock orders by 31 Dec 2025 receive a one-time 15,000-point credit and can later retrofit the original package for ¥1,200 or 12,000 points once chip supply improves.

TQ Wuling’s city-sized electric Bingo hit Malaysia today: Pro RM67,800, Max RM72,800 on-the-road, first 500 units get RM5k rebate, effectively RM62,800.
