Dreame Nebula NEXT, the automotive arm of Chinese appliance maker Dreame Technology, has revealed the Nebula NEXT 01 Concept Jet Edition at a launch event in San Francisco, pairing an all-electric drivetrain with a dual solid-fuel rocket booster system. The concept hypercar is the headline reveal of DREAME NEXT, a four-day showcase at the Palace of Fine Arts running through April 30. The company is targeting 2027 for mass production.
Highlights
- Dual solid-fuel rocket boosters generate a peak thrust of 100 kN with a 150-millisecond response, enabling a claimed 0–100 km/h time of 0.9 seconds
- Sulfide-based solid-state battery cell rated at 60 Ah with single-cell energy density above 450 Wh/kg, now in mass-production preparation
- Wire-controlled chassis with electromagnetic active suspension, dry brake-by-wire, and a sub-five-meter turning radius
- Production target of 2027, with a manufacturing plant planned for Berlin
A Vacuum Maker’s Push Into Hypercars
Dreame Technology, founded in 2017, is best known for high-speed digital motors used in robot vacuums and personal-care devices. The company has filed more than 10,000 patents globally and operates in over 120 countries. Its automotive unit, Nebula NEXT, debuted the original Nebula NEXT 01 four-door hyper-sedan concept at CES 2026, claiming 1.8-second 0–100 km/h acceleration and more than 2,000 horsepower.
The Jet Edition builds on that platform with two custom solid-fuel rocket boosters bolted to the chassis. Dreame says the propulsion system delivers a 0–100 km/h time of 0.9 seconds — a figure that, if achieved, would surpass every production hypercar on record. According to outside reporting from Electrek, the claim sits beyond the physical grip limit of conventional tires; the current EV record holder is a 300-pound student-built racecar that crossed 0–100 km/h in 0.956 seconds.
Solid-State Battery and Chassis Claims
Alongside the rocket-powered concept, the company introduced a sulfide-based solid-state battery cell. Dreame says the 60 Ah cell exceeds 450 Wh/kg in laboratory single-cell energy-density testing and is moving into mass-production preparation. That figure is consistent with Factorial’s Solstice cell, which targets 450 Wh/kg through a similar sulfide-electrolyte chemistry.
The vehicle’s chassis runs on what Dreame describes as a fully wire-controlled, 14-degree-of-freedom non-linear control system with a sub-one-millisecond response. The architecture combines electromagnetic active suspension with dry brake-by-wire, and the company claims a turning radius under five meters along with a more than 50% reduction in energy consumption. Dreame says the system supports tank turns and tire-burst stabilization.
From Software-Defined to AI-Defined Vehicles
Dreame frames its broader automotive thesis around what it calls AI-Defined Vehicles, or AIDV. The company introduced Metis, an edge-deployed large-model agent intended to coordinate the cockpit with home robotics across its product ecosystem. A separate high-level autonomous-driving system integrates the cockpit, drive, and chassis stacks, and is paired with the company’s DHX1 automotive LiDAR developed with an unnamed core partner.
The April 27 launch included a stage discussion between Stanford computer scientist and Google X co-founder Sebastian Thrun and Dreame Nebula NEXT executive Jake Ma. Ma told the audience that Dreame’s objective is to build, in his words, a “new brain for the physical world.” Yahoo Finance
Production and Manufacturing Plans
Dreame plans to begin producing the supercar in 2027 and has previously announced a partnership with BNP Paribas to build a manufacturing plant on the outskirts of Berlin. The DREAME NEXT event continues through April 30 and also covers the company’s smart appliance, personal device, and personal care lines.
