The well-known manufacturer of electric scooters and scooters NIU has introduced its first car in the domestic market – Niutron NV (Chinese brand name – Ziyoujia). The novelty is presented in two versions. The first is a pure electric vehicle with a range of 550 km (measured using the CLTC method), the second is a plug-in hybrid. In this version, the 1.5-liter internal combustion engine generates a current that charges the traction battery, which powers the electric motor that rotates the wheels. In purely electric mode, the hybrid can travel 150 km, and the range on one tank is 939 km.
The Niutron NV is a rather large crossover that resembles the Land Rover Defender 2 in its appearance (at least in the design of the front). The dimensions of the car are 4915 x 1950 x 1750 mm, the wheelbase is 2900 mm long. It is designed for five people.
The hybrid version is equipped with one electric motor on the rear axle, its power is 190 hp, the purely electric version has two electric motors, on the front and rear axles, their total power is 380 hp.
The Niutron NV has two screens in the cabin: the dashboard uses a 12.3-inch display, and a 15.6-inch screen is fixed on the center console. The car is equipped with a level 2+ autopilot (that is, in fact, there is an automatic cruise control) and 24 driving assistants. Interestingly, it even mentions its own operating system, Niutron OS, based on Android Automotive.
The Niutron NV is expected to be available for pre-order before the end of the quarter, with the first commercial vehicles to be delivered in September.
BYD introduced the new Denza N8 crossover, which is an upgraded version of the BYD Tang model.
The announcement turned out to be formal: the manufacturer published the first images, but did not disclose details about the technical component of Denza N8.
According to Chinese Automobiles, Denza N8 will be available with hybrid and pure electric powertrains. In addition, it is known that buyers will be able to choose between the number of seats in the cabin (5, 6 or 7).
The original BYD Tang was released in 2015, a second generation followed in 2018 and is still in production today. In 2019, Denza X was released based on this model, which was created in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz. Denza N8 replaces Denza X.
Prices and other details about the Denza N8 will be made public later.
Tesla has released a limited edition Cybertruck-themed GigaBier beer. Beer is offered for $30.
It is worth recognizing that this is not the first original idea from Elon Musk’s companies. Previously, The Boring Company offered flamethrowers and Burnt Hair cologne with the smell of burnt hair, and Tesla released a Cyberwhistle in the spirit of Cybertruck. Of course, there was Tesla branded tequila. By the way, at the time of its announcement, they also thought that this was an April Fool’s joke.
The Tesla GigaBier bottle is designed to mimic the shape of the Cybertruck, paying homage to the 500-year-old Reinheitsgebot tradition of German brewing. Enjoy this beer brewed in Berlin with our exclusive Cyberhops and notes of citrus, bergamot and sweet fruit. Each bottle has a glow-in-the-dark Giga logo.

The Chinese sat down Qualcomm and Nvidia? China launches its own 7nm SoC for cars with 8-core CPU, 14-core GPU and LPDDR5 memory support
Many cars are now equipped with Qualcomm SoCs (which are responsible for both multimedia capabilities and driver assistance systems) and Nvidia Drive systems-on-a-chip (for advanced autonomous driving functions). But China managed to release a competitor, if not to Nvidia platforms, then to Qualcomm for sure: mass production of the 7-nanometer SoC Dragon Eagle No. 1 for use in cars (so-called “digital cockpit systems”).
Wang Kai, CEO of SiEngine Technology, said work on Dragon Eagle No. 1 was carried out for three years. During this time, the system was developed, verified, tested and launched into mass production.
SoC includes all standard components including 8-core CPU, 14-core GPU, LPDDR5-6400 memory controller, 8 TOPS Neural Processor (AI Task Accelerator), ISP, DSP clusters and other typical Components.
It is reported that as early as the middle of the year, many new car models will be released in China that will use the Dragon Eagle No. 1. Among these automakers are Geely and FAW.
