The 2025 Onvo L60 from Nio just dropped, and it’s set to shake up the electric SUV scene with a starting price of 206,900 yuan, or about 29,500 USD. If you’re into flexibility, there is a Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option that slashes the entry price to a cool 149,900 yuan (21,400 USD). We are talking about an EV that balances performance with everyday practicality.
Deliveries are slated for mid-to-late October, so get ready. This refreshed electric SUV isn’t just a minor update, it brings notable improvements in energy efficiency, a smarter cockpit, and enhanced interior comfort.
What’s New for 2025?
Onvo didn’t just slap a new badge on it, the 2025 L60 rolls out with fresh exterior color choices, slicker wheel designs, and new interior themes. There are even cool accessories like a folding rear table, which is perfect for those on-the-go moments. And for existing Onvo owners, some of these sweet energy efficiency and smart cockpit upgrades will roll out via over-the-air (OTA) updates. Gotta love that future-proofing.
If you are quick and lock in your order before September 30, you will unlock six special offers. These include discounted premium paint colors, exclusive wheel designs, and those plush Nappa luxury interior packages. Other perks? How about a zero-down payment plan with three years of interest-free financing and 144 free battery swap vouchers? Plus, five years of free NOA navigation assistance, comfort accessories, and 3,000 loyalty points are on the table. That is a pretty compelling package for new buyers, making for a deal that is hard to beat in the Chinese EV market.
Exterior and Interior Vibes
The L60 keeps its signature closed front grille and that distinctive split headlight setup with L-shaped daytime running lights. But for 2025, there is a new “Dawn Gold” exterior color that screams elegance, especially when paired with bright silver window trim and those gorgeous 20-inch bright silver wheels.
Step inside, and all 2025 L60 models now come standard with ventilated rear seats, which is a blessing on hotter days. They have also seamlessly integrated hidden ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) and added blue-light filtering for all cabin screens, making long drives more comfortable. The AI has gotten a brain boost too, with improved spatial question-answering features and better rear-wheel drive assistance for those tricky slippery surfaces.
Fancy some extra luxury? You can opt for Moon Brown or Cloud Rice Nappa leather seats, a matching leather steering wheel, and a premium marble-pattern trim. That folding table for the right rear passenger is also an excellent touch for road warriors or families.
Powertrain Punch and Efficiency
Under the hood, the L60 still rocks Onvo’s in-house developed 900V silicon carbide electric drive system. The all-wheel drive version churns out a combined 340 kW (456 hp) and 440 Nm of torque. That is enough grunt to launch it from 0-100 km/h in a blistering 4.6 seconds, giving you that instant electric punch. Onvo claims that after the Coconut 2.0.5 software update drops in late September, the rear-wheel drive version will hit an impressive CLTC energy consumption rating of 11.9 kWh per 100km. This shows Onvo is serious about squeezing every bit of efficiency from its powertrain. For context on efficiency and performance, other models like the Volkswagen ID.3 GTX also highlight competitive metrics in their respective segments.
