The Chinese are coming to the point of electric and intelligent cars. Numerous companies have begun to introduce their new cars in Beijing, which include local-proven technology and an increasingly attractive design.
"You are aboard Eve - a concept vehicle designed with the thought of a future where cars will drive alone."
Zhang Hui, NIO's representative: "We took our mark as a landmark in 2025 when cars running alone could become norms. We wanted to create a car that would become a kind of second home in the future. "
The same builder brought the EP9 (read IPI NINE), the fastest electric car in the world, to the Beijing Salon. It was tested in the United States last year - both with the driver, and autonomously.
The company founded just four years ago enjoys supporting Chinese technology giants. And it has great plans: it wants to give Americans and Europeans an option in the field of smart cars that can drive alone and do not pollute.
Hans Greiml, journalist: "Chinese car companies are getting better, they are doing better-quality products, and the design has improved in years. And they manage to "bite" more and more from the market, and their sales are rising while sales of foreign companies are down. I think this is due to innovations on board and connectivity. "
Chinese automotive start-ups launch cars to the liking of local customers: stylish and low-end SUVs. The largest Chinese electric and hybrid car manufacturer has brought to the Beijing salon nine models, which he plans to sell on the American market.
The same company builds electric buses in California and exports electric taxis in Europe.
