Hoover manufacturer Dreame unveils electric sports car Nebula 1
Dreame Technology, a hoover manufacturer based in Suzhou, eastern China, officially announced at the end of August 2025 its plans to establish a second pillar in the e-mobility sector. To achieve this, the company founded the subsidiary Dreame Cars. According to earlier statements, its debut model is expected to be market-ready by 2027. Initial renderings positioned Dreame’s first model visually close to the Bugatti Chiron.
At CES in Las Vegas, the company has now unveiled its first physical concept and revealed its name: the four-door electric sports car will be called the Dreame Nebula 1. Under the exhibition lights, it appears exceptionally low and aerodynamic, with no visible door handles, a green paint finish, and numerous grey carbon fibre panels. Its dynamic appearance is completed by a large rear wing and a diffuser at the rear. However, the resemblance to the Bugatti is not as striking as initially suggested, as the Dreame concept features more angular lines in some areas.
Regarding performance data, Dreame has revealed only that the sports car is equipped with four electric motors delivering a combined output of 1,399 kW and can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometres per hour in 1.8 seconds, thanks to its ‘active aerodynamic kit.’ No details about battery performance have been provided. The company also did not clarify whether the 2027 target for the launch remains unchanged.
An interesting aspect is the future production location: according to information from September last year, Dreame Technology is considering building a factory for luxury electric vehicles in Brandenburg. In a press release at the time, the hoover manufacturer stated: “Yu Hao, founder and CEO of Dreame Technology, travelled to Germany with a team to select a location for the new Dreame Cars factory. As a result, the brand is considering setting up a production plant in Brandenburg.” The company further praised the region’s mature supply chain and predicted that locating there would ‘reduce logistics costs while ensuring an efficient network throughout Europe.’
How these plans have progressed remains largely unclear. However, Noticias de coches China reports that Dreame has since partnered with the French bank BNP Paribas to establish a new production plant in Berlin. The portal concludes that ‘global markets are the company’s top priority.’
Dreame Cars is reported to have assembled a team of nearly 1,000 employees by the middle of last year and continues to expand. The workforce consists of ‘R&D personnel from Dreame’s intelligent hardware business with those from the automotive manufacturing sector,’ as the company stated last year. Dreame is recognised as a specialist in high-performance smart vacuum cleaners and robots, and according to its own claims, possesses expertise in high-performance motors, AI algorithms, and robotic sensors and control systems.
“The luxury automotive sector has been missing a truly intelligent electric hypercar brand,” the company stated in a quote published by CocheNoticiasChina en agosto. “While traditional ultra-luxury brands like Bugatti and Bentley have been slow to embrace electrification and intelligence, Dreame will redefine what constitutes ultra-luxury in the next automotive era.”
However, Dreame is not the first hoover manufacturer with ambitions in the electric vehicle sector. The renowned company Dyson also surprised the world in 2017 with an electric car project, only to abandon it in 2019. Xiaomi’s diversification proved more successful: the Chinese smartphone manufacturer also expanded into the e-mobility sector a few years ago and has so far seen strong sales for its two models. Interestingly, Dreame has been part of the so-called Xiaomi Ecological Chain since 2017—a loose ecosystem of direct and indirect investments or companies that were co-founded and later spun off.
