This Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on June 19, 2020 (as amended to date, the “Schedule 13D”), relating to the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.00025 per share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”) and American depositary shares, each representing one Class A Ordinary Share (“ADSs”), of NIO Inc., an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning set forth in the Schedule 13D.

As a result of the transactions described herein, as of the date of this filing, each of the Reporting Persons has ceased to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of the outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 4 is the final amendment to the Statement and constitutes an exit filing for each of the Reporting Persons.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Schedule A (attached hereto) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and Item 2(d)-(e) of the Schedule 13D is hereby restated in its entirety as follows:

Attached hereto as Schedule A, and incorporated herein by reference, is information concerning each director and executive officer of the Reporting Persons (collectively, the “Related Persons”), which is required to be disclosed in response to Item 2 and General Instruction C to Schedule 13D.

(d)-(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best of the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, any of Related Persons, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

Since the Reporting Persons filed the Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D on June 23, 2023, the Issuer’s total outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares has increased. As of March 31, 2024, the Issuer had 1,938,529,186 Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding, as disclosed in the Issuer’s annual report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by the Issuer on April 9, 2024.

The 2024 Notes held by Huang River matured on February 1, 2024 and were fully repaid by the Issuer in cash.

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover page of this Schedule 13D for the Reporting Persons are incorporated herein by reference.
