Do Analysts See More Upside in NIO Stock After the Recent Rally?
Nio (NIO) stock has risen 21% over the past month, as investors cheered the Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker's efforts to improve margins, new launches, and resilient deliveries. However, NIO stock is still down 2.5% year-to-date amid intense competition in the Chinese EV market, macro challenges, and an uncertain path to profitability. Despite improved investor sentiment, most Wall Street analysts remain cautious on NIO stock and see a modest upside potential from current levels.

Analysts Are Cautious on NIO Stock Nio delivered 24,925 vehicles in June 2025, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 17.5%. Overall, the company's Q2 deliveries grew 25.6% year-over-year to 72,056 units. The company is optimistic about its upgraded models, including the ET5 Sedan and ET5 Touring, the recently launched ONVO L90, and upcoming launches, such as the L80 in Q4 2025. However, profitability concerns continue to weigh on Nio. Despite higher sales, the company reported a wider-than-anticipated loss for Q1 2025. Recently, Morgan Stanley analyst Tim Hsiao reiterated a Buy rating on NIO stock with a price target of $5.90. Reacting to the launch of the ONVO L90 SUV, Hsiao noted that the deliveries for this model will commence on August 1. He also noted the various features of the L90 and stated that although he 'strongly' recognizes the new model's advantages in a competitive market, 'beating market expectations isn't without challenges considering ONVO's unsatisfactory track record of execution and inferior brand awareness.' Hsiao believes that it would require additional effort for ONVO to leverage L90 and the upcoming L80 to overcome these shortcomings. Last month, Goldman Sachs analyst Tina Hou upgraded NIO stock to Hold from Sell and slightly increased the price target to $3.80 from $3.70. The 4-star analyst upgraded the rating on NIO stock on early signs that the Chinese EV maker's operating cost cuts may help address margin pressures. Hou noted that the company is targeting 20% to 25% of operating expenses savings through various initiatives, including integration across business units and headcount reductions. However, Hou remains sidelined on NIO stock due to cash flow concerns, high debt levels, and volume growth amid rising competition in the EV industry. Is Nio Stock a Buy, Hold, or Sell? Overall, Wall Street is sidelined on NIO stock based on six Holds, two Buys, and one Sell recommendation. The average NIO stock price target of $4.50 indicates a 6% upside potential from current levels.

Will NIO's Multi-Brand Strategy Come to Fruition With ONVO in 2025?
NIO Inc. NIO introduced its smart electric vehicle sub-brand, ONVO, in May 2024, to kick-start the company's transition into a multi-brand strategy. Designed to deliver an optimized ownership experience and exceptional value, ONVO's first model, the L60, officially entered the market on Sept. 28, 2024. Praised for its safety, spaciousness, class-leading energy efficiency and user-friendly charging experience, the L60 has resonated strongly with family customers. In the first four months of 2025, the ONVO L60 ranked among the top three best-selling battery electric vehicles in the RMB 200,000-300,000 price range. In the second quarter of 2025, the ONVO brand delivered 17,081 units, up from 14,781 vehicles delivered in the first quarter of brand's second model, the L90, a flagship large family SUV, will debut at the end of July, with deliveries commencing on Aug. 1, 2025, in China. A third ONVO SUV is set to launch in the fourth quarter, completing a more comprehensive SUV portfolio aimed at mass-market strong product reception, ONVO's overall sales performance this year has fallen short of the company's expectations, partly due to amortization and other financial pressures. Managing ONVO's operations and vehicle margins has proven challenging for the company. The key driver of gross vehicle margin for the ONVO brand is not expected to materialize until the third quarter. The company projects ONVO's 2025 vehicle margin to be approximately 15%, lower than the vehicle margin of 20% expected from the NIO brand. NIO carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) at present. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks slower-than-expected EV adoption and the launch of affordable models, competition in the EV market is intensifying. NIO ONVO L60 is currently competing with Tesla's TSLA Model Y and XPeng's XPEV G6. Tesla Model 3/Y has reported a year-over-year decline in second-quarter deliveries due to lower demand amid rising competition. Tesla delivered 373,728 Model 3/Y in the second quarter of 2025, down from 422,405 units in the corresponding quarter of 2024. Priced at $14,000 less, NIO ONVO L60 has emerged as a strong budget-friendly rival of Tesla Model Y. On Feb. 26, XPeng unveiled official images of its refreshed 2025 G6 model. One of the G6's key competitive strengths over rivals like the ONVO L60 is its pricing. The XPeng G6 580 Long Range Plus is available for under 180,000 RMB. In comparison, the ONVO L60 60kWh rear-wheel-drive variant requires an upfront payment of nearly 150,000 RMB, plus a monthly battery rental fee of 599 RMB.

Is NIO on Track to Meet its 2025 Vehicle Deliveries Target?
China's electric vehicle (EV) maker NIO Inc. NIO has announced its June and Q2 vehicle delivery numbers. The company sold 24,925 units last month, reflecting growth of 17.5% year over year. For the three months ended June, it delivered 72,056 vehicles, within the company's guided range and up 25.6% from the year-ago quarter. In the second quarter, the namesake brand sold 47,132 cars, representing a decline of approximately 18% from the same quarter in 2024. Meanwhile, ONVO and Firefly brands delivered 17,081 and 7,843 units, respectively. ONVO—NIO's mass-market brand—commenced deliveries last September with the model L60 SUV. The second model under the brand, L90, is scheduled to commence deliveries in the current quarter. Meanwhile, Firefly—NIO's smaller premium EV brand— began deliveries in April. ONVO and Firefly brands have diversified NIO's product portfolio, with sales gaining momentum. However, their growth is seemingly coming at the cost of NIO's namesake brand. This is concerning and also raises doubts about the company's full-year delivery goals. In the first half of 2025, the company sold 114,150 vehicles, representing an increase of more than 30% from the year-ago period. While that may look impressive on the surface, the growth isn't sufficient to meet its big goals. NIO aims to double sales in 2025 from 221,970 units delivered last year. For that, NIO will have to deliver somewhere around 330,000 vehicles in the second half. That translates to an average monthly run rate of 55,000 EVs. And this seems quite challenging at the moment. NIO will most likely miss its vehicle delivery target for 2025. Li Auto LI delivered 36,279 units last month and 111,074 vehicles in the second quarter of 2025. While Li Auto's delivery numbers are higher than NIO's, its growth rate was quite modest at 2.3%. Deliveries of the Li MEGA Home began in late May, with production ramping up quickly as orders far surpassed expectations. Li Auto plans to launch Li i8 this month and Li i6 in September, which are expected to boost deliveries. Meanwhile, XPeng Inc. XPEV continues with its delivery growth momentum. Last month, XPeng delivered 34,611 smart EVs, marking a whopping 224% increase year over year. With that, XPeng's deliveries surpassed the 30,000 mark for the eighth straight month. In Q2'25, the company sold 103,181 cars, setting a new quarterly record. NIO significantly trailed behind Li Auto and XPeng in the second-quarter delivery numbers. Shares of NIO have lost around 19% year to date compared with the industry's decline of 8%. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research From a valuation standpoint, NIO trades at a forward price-to-sales ratio of 0.45. It carries a Value Score of D.
