NIO SAFETY FEATURES : Let this sink in !
Author highlights NIO's advanced ES9 safety features, arguing Chinese EVs now surpass legacy European rivals in quality and safety.
- NIO's new ES9 model features class-leading safety tech, including 12 airbags and rapid high-voltage cutoff.
- Advanced active safety systems can raise the vehicle body and auto-dodge obstacles at high speeds to prevent or mitigate collisions.
- Chinese EVs have overcome the 'cheap and poor quality' stereotype, now offering superior safety compared to legacy European automakers.
To all the artificially intelligent, organically dumb investors who are listening to mainstream financial media headlines and computer generated stock analysis polluted with political propaganda,
The days of Chinese progress in every field being a product of cheap labor and poor material quality are long gone! Wake up to the new reality and accept the fact that world leadership in doing good things for humanity has been irreversibly changed. Today, you’re safer sitting in a top Chinese car than a previous flag bearer top European car! …. And NIO is one of the best , if not the best, in this new era.
Here is the most significant safety features in NIO’s latest new model;
- The ES9 is equipped with 12 airbags, which Nio said is the most in its class
- It can cut off high-voltage battery power within 0.005 seconds after a collision occurs, while keeping the low-voltage system operating normally.
- When facing a collision with a large vehicle, the ES9's intelligent system can actively raise the vehicle body by 50 millimeters within 0.7 seconds. This allows the impact force to be transferred along structural design paths, thereby reducing body deformation and cabin intrusion.
- In addition, the model's zero-gravity seats are equipped with active and passive return functions, addressing the injury risks passengers might face if a collision occurs while in a reclined position.
- Even in complex environments without streetlights late at night, the vehicle can respond swiftly and automatically dodge obstacles at a speed of 120 km/h.
