The transaction is structured with a performance clause that could reduce Geely's stake to 20% if operational milestones are missed, and an option to increase to 34% within two years. Additionally, Nio China will receive a 10% stake in Geely's charging unit Haohan Energy. The deal is subject to regulatory approval and marks a significant capital injection for Nio, which has invested billions in its swap station network.
