These four models will be upgraded in three dimensions: design, comfort, and intelligence, with improvements to front and rear passenger comfort features. A special edition "Natural Wonderland" model will also be launched.

Judging from the official teaser video, the upcoming Natural Wonderland special edition model features small claw-like elements on the driver's side sun visor to enhance its emotional appeal.

Judging from the official images, the 2026 NIO ES6 and 2026 NIO EC6 largely retain the design style of the current models, with new design elements added to the details. Specifically, both models feature silver trim strips on the front door panels and new wheel designs, giving the vehicles a more sporty look.

The 2026 NIO ES6 and 2026 NIO EC6 are expected to retain the existing powertrain, still featuring dual motors with a combined system output of 360 kW and a maximum torque of 700 Nm. In terms of range, they will offer 75kWh, 100kWh, and 150kWh battery packs, corresponding to CLTC ranges of 500 km, 625 km, and 930 km (ES6); and 505 km, 630 km, and 935 km (EC6).

The 2026 NIO ET5 and 2026 NIO ET5T retain the overall design style of the existing models, incorporating bright silver elements on the front door panels and seemingly mountain-shaped details. Other features also appear to include new wheel options, with the 2026 NIO ET5T adding new color schemes to meet more personalization needs.

Similarly, the 2026 NIO ET5 and 2026 NIO ET5T are expected to retain the existing powertrain, both equipped with dual motors with a total power output of 490 horsepower and a peak torque of 700 Nm.

Both models will also feature a CDC dynamic suspension damping control system, and hydraulic bushings have been added to the rear subframe, significantly improving the driving experience.
