NIO ET7 recognized in Germany and awarded the GOLDEN STEERING WHEEL 2022

09 november 2022 by NIO


Our NIO ET7 has impressed Germany upon our market entry. NIO won the internationally coveted car award, THE GOLDEN WHEEL, in the category "Medium and Upper Class" for our flagship sedan!

Every year, the Magazines BILD am SONNTAG, the AUTO BILD group, and its European partners award the Car Prize to the best new releases. What makes us particularly pleased and honored is that since the first awards ceremony in 1976, we have become the first manufacturer to win one of the coveted prizes in a product category within just a few weeks of its German market launch of the brand. This year, prizes were awarded in eleven categories. A total of 47 new vehicle models were up for election. Three finalists were chosen for each category and evaluated by a jury of experts at the Lausitzring - a race track northeast of Germany - under detailed practical tests.

The official award ceremony occurred at the Axel Springer House in Berlin. Ralph Kranz, the General Manager of NIO Germany, received the prestigious award from Tom Drechsler, Editor-in-Chief of the Automotive Magazine AUTO BILD. William Li also addressed the invited guests and expert jury in a greeting message at the award ceremony. He noted, “After celebrating our European launch in Berlin just one month ago, this award marks another milestone in our journey. Soon, we will announce additional new products, more NIO houses, and more Power Swap Stations. I can't wait to share more exciting news with you soon."
