Dreamy is a Chinese company with a foothold in AI-driven cleaning robots and personal care products. At a four-day tech conference it hosted in San Francisco called Dream Next, it unveiled two vehicles. The first is a concept called the Nebula Next 01 jet edition, powered by aerospace-derived rocket technology in a twin-engine layout, with a claimed 0-to-100 km/h time of 0.9 seconds. The second is the Nebula Next 01 EV hyper sedan, a production-intended vehicle the company says will be available in the second half of 2027. The concept is framed by Dreamy's chief marketing officer not as a car but as a proof of engineering capability: a mobility robot defined by performance, intelligence, and safety.
Dreamy's move into vehicles is presented as an extension of its existing robotics and AI work. The company argues that building devices that navigate home environments using AI and sensor integration is the same core capability required for autonomous vehicles. The production hyper sedan runs on a central brain architecture, with sub-agents managing the cockpit, chassis, and powertrain as a coordinated system. The company describes the target as a vehicle that learns from the driver over time, adapting its behavior based on accumulated experience. Tariffs currently make selling Chinese EVs in the United States commercially unviable, though Dreamy's representatives referenced Canada's recent allowance of a quota of Chinese EVs as an indicator of where they hope trade policy is heading.
CGTN America covers the Dream Next conference including the vehicle reveal and interviews with Dreamy's chief marketing officer. The company explicitly named Tesla as a potential partner rather than a rival, saying it wants to work alongside Tesla to accelerate smart vehicle adoption in US households. The 0.9-second 0-to-100 km/h claim, if accurate in production form, would place the Nebula Next 01 among the fastest-accelerating road vehicles ever built. Dreamy describes the propulsion technology as rocket-based, using aerospace engineering adapted for road use, though no powertrain output figures, battery specifications, or range estimates were disclosed at this event. Pricing for the production sedan was also not announced.
Bottom line: Cleaning robot companies building hypercars sounds absurd until you consider that some of the most capable EV engineers came from unrelated industries. The 0.9-second claim needs an independent test, and 2027 is still a year away. Worth watching, not worth banking on yet.
