  NIO has a potential inflection point with record vehicle deliveries, launching a new sub-brand, and introducing new technology. The Chinese EV company aims to turn profitable by increasing monthly deliveries and improving gross margins with the launch of the ONVO brand. The stock has seen the market valuation dip to only $8 billion, a fraction of 2025 sales targets. The EV space has faced a tough year or so, causing investors to forget the difficulties of building a new brand.  NIO, Inc.  ( NYSE: NIO ) is a prime example of a Chinese  EV company beaten down, yet the company is coming off their most successful delivery period.

The Chinese electric vehicle company still forecasts vehicle deliveries reaching a goal of 250K this year, which appears aggressive after only 31K in Q1. NIO stock is cheap at 1x EV/S multiples, with major multiple expansion possible on hitting breakout EV delivery targets for the year.
