Remember Daniel Abt? The Formula E driver was disgraced after secretly subbing in an 18-year-old esports professional during a virtual ‘Race at Home Challenge.’ Abt was suspended from the competition, ordered to make a 10,000 euro (roughly $11,279) charitable donation and dropped by Audi, the team he had been driving for that season. The racer’s absence from Formula E has been short-lived, though: motorsport rival NIO 333 has picked him up for the six real-world races in Berlin that will cap off the 2019/2020 season. He’ll replace Chinese driver Ma Qinghua, who accepted last week that he cannot compete due to COVID-19 travel restrictions.

“I take full responsibility for what happened in the Race at Home Challenge,”Abt said. “It was a mistake.” The 27-year-old will be hoping to replicate his form from May 2018, when he took first place at the temporary Tempelhofring street circuit in Berlin. “I just want to do the best I can for the team and help us have a good finish to the season,” he explained. In a press release, NIO 333 said it had made the decision after “careful consideration” and speaking with key figures in the Formula E industry. “As the saying goes in the Eastern world, a prodigal who returns is more precious than gold,” Vincent Wang, CEO of NIO 333 added.

The company does have plans for a stronger lineup, although you won’t see these new models for a while. It just introduced the EC6 (shown above), a “coupe SUV” that boasts a 0-62MPH time of 4.7 seconds and a claimed 382-mile range with a 100kWh battery pack. It also revamped its larger ES8 SUV with up to 360 miles of range. The updated ES8 won’t ship until April, though, and the EC6 isn’t slated to arrive until September. In the near term, it’s counting on a sharp spike in deliveries that could see it move over 8,000 cars in the fourth quarter.

However, the Chinese car market isn’t static. Tesla just started delivering its first cars made in the country, giving customers 15 Model 3 sedans made at its Gigafactory 3 in Shanghai. While there isn’t a lot of overlap between the two lineups (the Model X is as close as Tesla gets), there’s still a concern that Tesla could offer fierce competition for Nio and lure away EV customers who are more interested in aggressive pricing and a well-known name than the form factor or a homegrown brand.

For the gamer who has everything, we present to you the NIO ES6 Night Explorer Limited Edition, the unholy offspring of a Razer gaming laptop and an electric SUV. It has some of the features you’d expect from a Razer product — like neon green branding and Chroma LED lighting — but, you know, in car form. It’ll also pack in Hue lighting and THX Spatial Audio, so you can truly flaunt your role as a geeky road warrior. Don’t get too excited though, as NIO is only going to make 88 of these custom SUVs. And, of course, they’ll only be available in China for around $67,419 (467,800 yuan).
