NIO reported November 2025 deliveries of 36,275 vehicles on December 1, 2025, representing the company's second-highest monthly total on record behind October's 40,397 units. This marks a 76.31 percent increase year-over-year but a 10.20 percent decline month-over-month. With Q4 delivery guidance of 120,000 to 125,000 vehicles, this episode analyzes whether NIO can still achieve its first quarterly profit in Q4 2025.Breaking down November deliveries by brand reveals divergent trends. The NIO main brand delivered 18,393 vehicles, up 18.72 percent year-over-year and up 7.29 percent month-over-month, marking four consecutive months of growth driven by strong ES8 demand. Onvo delivered 11,794 vehicles, up 132.07 percent year-over-year but down 31.99 percent from October's 17,343 units. Firefly achieved a record 6,088 deliveries, up 2.98 percent month-over-month, representing the third consecutive month of record-breaking performance.The sharp decline in Onvo deliveries reflects the impact of phased-out vehicle trade-in subsidies across multiple Chinese provinces and cities. NIO founder William Li stated during a November 26 media briefing that the abrupt withdrawal of trade-in subsidies significantly impacted the market in ways the industry hadn't anticipated, leading to a sharp decline in new orders across the sector. Li noted all models except the NIO ES8, Firefly, and upcoming ET9 have been affected by these policy changes.With October and November combined deliveries of 76,672 vehicles, NIO needs to deliver between 43,328 and 48,328 vehicles in December to meet Q4 guidance of 120,000 to 125,000 total units. December 2024 saw NIO deliver 50,045 vehicles, setting a monthly record at the time. Matching that performance while Onvo faces a 32 percent month-over-month decline presents a significant challenge.Analyzing Q4 profitability potential using the delivery numbers: if NIO achieves 117,000 to 121,000 Q4 deliveries at an average selling price around 280,000 REN mixing ES8, Onvo, and Firefly, revenue would total approximately 32.76 to 33.88 billion REN, aligning with management guidance of 32.76 to 34.04 billion REN. With management targeting approximately 18 percent vehicle margin for Q4 and ES8 margins exceeding 20 percent, gross margin at company level of 15-16 percent would generate 4.9 to 5.4 billion REN in gross profit. Against quarterly operating expenses of approximately 6.2 billion REN including 2 billion REN R&D and 4.2 billion SG&A, this suggests an operating loss of 800 million to 1.3 billion REN unless ES8 over-delivers, SG&A comes in lower than expected, or other income sources like swap network revenue contribute more significantly.From January to November 2025, NIO Inc delivered 277,893 vehicles total, representing 45.62 percent year-over-year growth and achieving 63.15 percent of the 440,000 annual target. The NIO main brand delivered 146,909 vehicles during this period, down 18.65 percent year-over-year. Onvo delivered 98,654 vehicles since beginning deliveries in September 2024, while Firefly has delivered 32,330 vehicles since launching in April 2025.Competitive context shows significant industry reshuffling. Leapmotor delivered 70,327 vehicles in November, achieving its 500,000 unit annual target 45 days early and targeting 1 million units for 2026. XPeng delivered 36,728 in November, having already met its 350,000 annual target in October. Li Auto delivered only 33,181 vehicles in November, down 31.9 percent year-over-year, achieving just 56.5 percent of its revised 640,000 unit target. HarmonyOS delivered over 80,000 vehicles in November with 513,000 year-to-date against a 1 million unit target. Xiaomi Auto exceeded 40,000 November deliveries and surpassed 500,000 cumulative deliveries, exceeding its initial 350,000 annual target.NIO's strategic shift emphasizes operational quality over sales volume with the core goal being annual profitability.

Retailers don't have to wait for electric vehicles to cut emissions, operational efficiency can make a difference today. Black Friday keeps getting bigger every year. In the US alone, online sales will pass $10 billion over the weekend. Millions of parcels hit the roads, releasing millions of tonnes of CO in just a few days. And Ireland is no exception. The average Irish consumer is expected to spend €329 over the Black Friday period, with 63% of sales taking place online. That means a surge in home deliveries right across the country and a sharp rise in vehicle emissions as vans race to meet tight delivery windows (PWC). Sustainability strategies for Black Friday Some of the larger retailers are trying to get greener, but their plans are far off. IKEA has targets for electric deliveries by 2028, while Amazon and Currys aim for net zero by 2040. These goals are important, but they take time. Charging infrastructure, vehicle supply, and range limitations mean electric fleets cannot scale overnight. "The problem is that everyone's waiting for the future to fix the present," says David Walsh, CEO of SmartRoutes. "If retailers focused on using what they already have more efficiently, they could cut a fifth of delivery emissions almost overnight." Smarter planning can make a big difference. By consolidating stops, reducing duplicated routes, and grouping orders efficiently, retailers can reduce total distance driven by 15 to 20 percent. Over a peak week like Black Friday, that is the equivalent of taking more than 300,000 cars off the road. "The final mile is where a lot of the waste happens," Walsh adds. "You'll see two vans from the same retailer passing each other on the same street. That is completely avoidable." Consumers are also making more sustainable choices. Many choose to group deliveries if it means fewer trips. That creates pressure for retailers to reduce delivery emissions, not just focus on packaging or product sustainability. There is also a clear business case. Every mile avoided saves fuel and time. For large retailers, the savings can be significant, while still meeting customer expectations. Black Friday is the busiest delivery period of the year, but it also offers the biggest opportunity to make a measurable difference. Electrification will shape the future, but smarter delivery planning can reduce emissions today.

She writes about trends in technology, logistics and last-mile delivery. Company bio: SmartRoutes is an Irish delivery operations platform focused on helping businesses plan efficient, lower-emission delivery routes. Its research explores ways retailers can reduce carbon emissions in logistics and the final mile. See more breaking stories here.

DoorDash is piloting autonomous deliveries with Waymo in Metro Phoenix—but will consumers actually embrace robot deliveries? Sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Ocampo Capital, Infios, and Quorso. Lisa Collier is skeptical: "If I'm paying for delivery, I want it handed to me." Manola Soler shares hilarious experiences with delivery robots in Jersey City that couldn't navigate stairs and blocked sidewalks. The panel debates whether this works better in suburban vs. urban environments, the logistics of restaurant employees running orders to vehicles, and whether lower delivery fees would make consumers accept the trade-off. Chris Walton points out this might succeed in suburban America first, where last-mile costs are higher and homes have driveways—not apartment buildings with elevators.

In Part 1 of this special episode, Paul is joined by African football expert Ali Howorth live from the Cape Verdean capital of Praia to talk about the country's historic World Cup qualification. What force of nature helped the islanders get the job done against Eswatini? What were the highlights of the after-party? What role has the Dutch city of Rotterdam played in Cape Verde's success? And why might the Blue Sharks have more fans than expected at the World Cup? In Part 2, Lee and Paul hear from Cape Verde central defender Roberto Lopes, who explains the story of his international recruitment via LinkedIn, and discuss everything from diaspora to donkeys.

Hidden fees, high commissions, and driver exploitation have left restaurants struggling to stay afloat. Recognizing this broken system, Troy Smith, CEO of Chop Chop, created a solution designed to empower restaurants and drivers alike while saving money for small businesses.Chop Chop isn't your typical food delivery app. “We're not an ordering app,” Troy explained in today's episode. “We believe restaurants should take their own orders and payments. What we do is connect drivers with restaurants.” This unique approach eliminates the hefty commissions that traditional apps charge—often up to 30% of an order—enabling restaurants to retain more of their revenue.Troy's innovative model is simple yet impactful. Restaurants pay a flat $199 monthly fee to access the app, allowing them to connect with vetted drivers who deliver orders. Unlike other platforms, Chop Chop ensures drivers are paid fairly—directly from the restaurant through Stripe, with funds held in escrow until delivery is confirmed. Customers receive real-time updates via SMS without needing to download the app, while restaurants maintain full control of the customer relationship.This streamlined system offers a lifeline to small businesses, especially mom-and-pop restaurants, which have been disproportionately affected by high delivery fees. “Deliveries have become a huge revenue stream for restaurants, especially since COVID,” Troy shared. “But the current system just isn't working. Restaurants are paying more money to send food to their own customers than ever before.”Chop Chop's mission extends beyond financial benefits. Many drivers and restaurants in the network are first-generation immigrants who often face exploitation in the gig economy. “FundingHope really resonated with us because they're looking out for the small guy,” Troy said. Chop Chop's crowdfunding campaign on FundingHope invites customers, drivers, and supporters to invest in the platform and help scale this game-changing solution.For just $199 a month—less than the price of a cup of coffee per day—restaurants can reclaim control, drivers can earn fairly, and customers can support their favorite local businesses without guilt. Chop Chop is more than a delivery app; it's a movement to restore fairness and transparency in food delivery.Visit ChopChop.mobi or FundingHope to learn more about this revolutionary app and its crowdfunding campaign.tl;dr:Troy Smith explains how Chop Chop empowers restaurants by eliminating high delivery fees and exploitation.The platform charges restaurants a flat $199 monthly fee, connecting them with vetted drivers for deliveries.Chop Chop ensures drivers are paid fairly via Stripe, fostering transparency and trust in the process.Inspired by personal experiences and challenges during COVID, Troy created a practical, scalable solution.The company invites investors to join its FundingHope campaign, supporting a fairer food delivery ecosystem.How to Develop Making a Plan As a SuperpowerTroy Smith's superpower, as he describes it, is the ability to “make a plan.” Growing up in Zimbabwe, he adopted the Afrikaans phrase maak a plan, meaning to solve problems through creativity and resourcefulness. “When something presents itself, a challenge, something is going wrong, you make a plan,” Troy explained in this episode.One powerful story that exemplifies this superpower occurred during the early days of COVID. Troy visited a small Japanese restaurant, where the owner, short on staff, asked him to deliver food for $10. This simple act planted the seed for Chop Chop. “She made the plan for me,” Troy said, “and I realized we could turn this into an app, connecting drivers with restaurants while ensuring fair pay.”To develop this superpower, Troy suggests starting with observation. “Instead of jumping in and trying to fix things, take a moment to see what's going on,” he shared. Identifying the root cause of a problem is key to crafting an effective solution. He also emphasizes the importance of systems, a lesson he learned while running McDonald's franchises in South Africa.By following Troy's example and advice, you can make problem-solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileTroy Smith (he/him):CEO, Chop ChopAbout Chop Chop: Chop Chop is a logistics platform that empowers restaurants to run first-party delivery without the costs and headaches of hiring their own drivers. We are not an ordering platform. Restaurants continue to take orders and payments directly from their customers. We connect them with local verified drivers who are screened for license and insurance and who complete deliveries on demand. Unlike third-party apps, we do not take commissions or add hidden fees. Instead, we charge a flat subscription, allowing restaurants to keep more revenue, drivers to earn fairly, and customers to avoid surprise charges.Website: chopchop.mobiOther URL: invest.fundinghope.com/offering/chop-chop/detailsBiographical Information: Troy Smith is the co-founder and CEO of Chop Chop, a logistics platform that helps restaurants run first-party delivery without relying on costly third-party apps. A former McDonald's franchisee, Troy understands firsthand the challenges restaurants face with slim margins and complex operations. He launched Chop Chop to give restaurants control over delivery, ensure fair pay for drivers, and provide customers with transparent, fee-free service.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/trychopchopSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1136: An IRS update that could save EV buyers thousands, how Cadillac is quietly staging a luxury comeback and the deeper impact of AI on software development—and whether vibe-coding is helping or hollowing out the craft.The IRS has provided a much-needed clarification that gives EV buyers a path to still claim the federal tax credit—even if their vehicle hasn't been delivered by the September 30th deadline.Buyers who sign a binding purchase agreement and make a payment by September 30, 2025, can still claim the $7,500 (new) or $4,000 (used) EV tax credit.This clarification resolves confusion around the “placed in service” language, which had been interpreted to mean vehicles had to be delivered before the deadline.Deliveries can now happen after the deadline as long as paperwork and payment are completed beforehand.Dealers must provide a “time of sale report” within three days of vehicle delivery to support the buyer's claim.The clarification comes as EV demand has surged this summer, with analysts crediting savvy shoppers aiming to lock in the credit before its sunset.Cadillac's electric vehicle momentum is giving the brand a shot at reclaiming its former glory in the luxury segment—this time with plugs instead of prestige grilles.Cadillac's U.S. sales have risen for 12 straight quarters, with EVs making up about a third of sales in the past two months.That figure far outpaces both the broader industry (6–8%) and even the luxury segment (14%) for EV market share.Most EV buyers are trading in vehicles from Audi, BMW, and Mercedes—brands that have long outshined Cadillac.Even Tesla is losing 1 in 10 trade-ins to the American luxury brand.“They're now beyond where we expect the industry to be five years from now,” said J.D. Power's Tyson Jominy. “Success today does not necessarily mean success tomorrow.”As AI-assisted vibe coding tools proliferate, developers are grappling with what gets gained—and lost—when code becomes more suggestion than craftsmanship.AI tools now help with everything from debugging to database encryption to entire app scaffolding.While helpful, these tools can also produce bloated, disjointed code without strong editorial guidance.Critics worry that fluency in core principles is eroding, replaced by reliance on “good enough” automation.“It may be the easiest time in history to be a coder,” the author writes, “but it's perhaps harder than ever to grow into a software engineer.”0:00 Intro with Kyle Mountsier and Michael Cirillo1:15 What Kyle and Michael would do with a 2-day work week2:42 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with vAuto on Sept 103:22 EVs Delivered Post-Sept 30 Can Still Receive Tax Credit5:59 Cadillac Sales Grow For 12 Straight Quarters8:25 Vibe Coding Making Coding Easier, But Not GoodJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
