The world of automotive is abuzz with the latest innovation from Nio, a leading Chinese EV manufacturer. Their ultra-luxe ET9 model has been making waves online for its unique ability to shake off snow, much like a dog would. This feature is part of the ET9’s intelligent chassis system, known as Sky Ride.

 

The ET9, priced at a hefty $112,000, is Nio’s answer to the likes of Porsche and Mercedes-Maybach. It’s not just the price tag that’s turning heads, but also the cutting-edge features that this EV brings to the table. The ET9’s Sky Ride system can independently control the movement of each wheel, allowing the car to perform oscillating movements to shake off snow. This feature is particularly useful for those living in regions with heavy snowfall.

 

But the ET9 is more than just a snow-shaking marvel. It’s also a testament to Nio’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of EV technology. The ET9 boasts a 900V platform, which requires less high-voltage wiring and reduces overall vehicle weight, while increasing the rate of charge the sedan can receive1. This, coupled with its luxurious design and spacious cabin, positions the ET9 as a serious contender in the ultra-premium EV market.

 

The online community has been captivated by the ET9’s snow-shaking feature, with many likening it to a dog shaking off water after a bath2. This comparison has added a touch of whimsy to the conversation around the ET9, making it a trending topic in the online EV space.

 

As we look forward to the first deliveries of the ET9 in early 2025, one can’t help but wonder what other surprises Nio has in store for us. Will the ET9 set a new standard for EVs, or will it be remembered as a novelty? And here’s a question for you: How do you think this snow-shaking feature will change the game for EVs in cold climates? Share your thoughts below!
