Overview
- Dreame, which unveiled the Nebula NEXT 01 JET Edition on Monday, claimed dual solid-fuel boosters give the EV 100 kN of thrust, a 150 ms response, and a 0–100 km/h sprint in 0.9 seconds.
- An engineer on site told The Autopian the rocket housings looked sealed by plastic covers with no visible inlets or outlets, reinforcing wider doubts that the rockets were functional at the event.
- Technical coverage noted that sub-one-second launches exceed tire grip limits without extra thrust or downforce, raising questions about real-world fueling, safety, emissions during use, and regulation.
- Beyond the headline claim, Dreame introduced the DHX1 LiDAR for image-level sensing that outlets say can detect details at long range, and an autonomy stack built on a VLA and World Model architecture aimed at L2++ and L3+ driving.
- Dreame also touted a sulfide solid-state cell tested above 450 Wh/kg in the lab, steer- and brake-by-wire, electromagnetic suspension, a 2027 manufacturing target, and a reported BNP Paribas-linked factory near Berlin.
