On June 12, Li Bin, the visionary founder of NIO, emphasized that weight reduction in new energy vehicles carries immense value for users, yet attaining this objective is no small feat. Lightweighting represents a holistic achievement that intertwines costs, technological advancements, engineering prowess, and precise product definition. Based on Li Bin's calculations, once a vehicle's fundamental design is finalized and it enters the crucial final sprint phase for weight reduction, shedding just 1 kilogram can cost around 1,000 yuan. While slimming down from 2 tons to 1.9 tons may seem relatively straightforward, the cost per kilogram soars even higher as the weight reduction efforts intensify.
