Dreame Unveils Nebula Next 01 Jet Edition Rocket-Powered EV
Chinese vacuum maker Dreame has unveiled the Nebula Next 01 Jet Edition, a battery-powered hypercar featuring a custom dual solid-fuel rocket booster system. The company claims the setup responds in 150 milliseconds and produces a peak thrust of 100 kilonewtons, enabling acceleration from zero to 60 mph in 0.9 seconds—surpassing the McMurtry Spéirling's 1.4 seconds. A YouTube video, apparently AI-generated, mentions air suspension, steer-by-wire steering, and a LiDar system for autonomous operation. Dreame has not announced production timelines or pricing, but the San Francisco debut suggests potential U.S. market entry. The concept echoes Elon Musk's 2024 hint about a rocket-equipped Tesla Roadster, which remains unrealized.
