Nio Opens First Battery Swap Station in MENA
"The launch of Nio''s Power Swap Station in the UAE signifies a transformative step in the evolution of electric mobility in the region,"
Standing as a beacon of innovation, sustainability, and forward-thinking infrastructure, Abu Dhabi is the ideal home for the region's first NIO Power Swap Station - a testament to the city's role as the gateway to a smarter, greener future.
As demand for battery swapping continues to grow, a second NIO Power Swap Station is set to open in Dubai in the coming weeks, with further stations to follow later this year.
The UAE's first Power Swap Station was officially opened in February 2025, located at Yas Marina Circuit. Since then, around 15% of NIO users in the UAE are actively battery swapping, a number which will continue to grow as more stations are added to the network. This reflects genuine user adoption and an increasing preference among local users.
Occupying the same footprint as four parking spaces, NIO Power Swap Station 3.0, capable of holding up to 21 batteries, is a groundbreaking charging solution designed to eliminate range concerns and deliver unparalleled convenience. PSS 3.0 is capable of performing up to 408 battery swaps in a single day.
