All in all...

NIO has developed a product of comparable quality and might have somewhat of an edge due to its investor base and media relationships (Tencent, Bloomberg etc)... but it seems JBZY may have relatively more market potential in terms of the diversity of its product offering, competitive pricing, production capacity, and geographic footprint.. That said, time will tell who will lead the other in disrupting and penetrating the massive EV market in China!
