Versions and consumption
| Version | Usable battery | Consumption | Estimated range | Max charging (AC / DC) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Range · 2022 | 75.0 kWh | 18.8 kWh/100 km | ≈ 379 km | 11.0 / 140 kW | Calculate |
| Long Range · 2022 | 90.0 kWh | 19.4 kWh/100 km | ≈ 441 km | 11.0 / 127 kW | Calculate |
Reference version: Standard Range · 2022.
What it costs, version by version
| Version | 100 km at home, off-peak | 100 km at home, standard rate | 100 km at a rapid charger | 10 → 80 % at home, off-peak | 10 → 80 % at a rapid charger |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Range · 2022 | €3.35 | €4.21 | €9.67 | €9.34 | €27.01 |
| Long Range · 2022 | €3.45 | €4.35 | €9.98 | €11.21 | €32.41 |
Winter and summer: the effect on cost
For the reference version (Standard Range · 2022), in an oceanic climate (western France) and mixed driving: 21.5 kWh/100 km in January, i.e. €3.82 per 100 km off-peak, against 19.0 kWh/100 km in July, i.e. €3.38. Charging therefore costs about 13 % more in January than in July.
Compared with other models
At 18.8 kWh/100 km (reference version), the NIO EL7 ranks 126 out of 230 models in the Watt Budget database, from most to least frugal. The median is 18.4 kWh/100 km.
Assumptions
- Consumption: average used in the Watt Budget database for each version (sources: Open EV Data and spec sheets). It may differ from your use.
- Home prices: EDF Tarif Bleu on 1 August 2026, 6 kVA, incl. VAT: off-peak €0.1589 per kWh, standard rate €0.2001 per kWh.
- Rapid charger: €0.49 per kWh, indicative price (it varies by network and subscription).
- Charging losses: 12 % at home (Watt Budget’s automatic estimate for a 6.9 kW charger in mild weather), 5 % at a rapid charger. You pay for more kWh than end up in the battery.
- 10 → 80 % charge: 70 % of the usable battery. Estimated range: 95 % of the usable battery at average consumption.
- Winter and summer: model of the Seasons tab (average monthly temperature, consumption curve), mixed driving, no heat pump.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a full charge of the NIO EL7 cost at home?
For the reference version (Standard Range · 2022), charging from 10 to 80 % (52.5 kWh stored) costs about €3.35 – €3.45 off-peak and €11.77 at the standard rate. A full 0 to 100 % charge costs about €13.35 off-peak.
How much does rapid charging cost?
At €0.49 per kWh, a 10 → 80 % charge costs about €9.67 – €9.98 for the reference version (Standard Range · 2022), i.e. €9.67 per 100 km. The real price depends on the network and your subscription.
Does charging cost more in winter?
Yes, consumption rises in cold weather: about 13 % more in January than in July for this version, in an oceanic climate and mixed driving.
