History
The company was founded in 2014 by Baidu’s former chief technology officer, Li Yinan, and Token Yilin Hu. The first Niu scooters were crowdfunded.[6] It differentiated itself by using lithium-ion batteries as opposed to the cheaper lead-acid alternatives widely used in Chinese e-scooters at the time.[7]
In 2018, it was listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the ticker NIU.[8]
In 2019, Revel Transit launched in New York City with 1,000 Niu electric scooters, later expanding to Washington DC, Austin and Miami.[9]
In 2021, Niu expanded its product line to include electric bikes.[10]
In 2023, the company launched its first electric dirt bike called XQi3.[11][12]
Sales
As of 2018, it had sold over 200,000 electric vehicles in 50 countries, and had a market share of 60% in the European electric scooter market.
Niu’s biggest overseas market is Europe which is driven by sharing platforms such as Belgium-based Scooty. Sales in Europe have increased to 16,000 units in 2018 from a few hundred in 2016.[13]
Finances
It had nearly $300M in revenue in 2019.[14] It has raised over US$125 million in funding from investors.
