Vacuum Company Builds Rocket-Powered Car Hitting 60 in 0.9s
Dreame, the Chinese vacuum cleaner brand, just unveiled a hypercar with rocket boosters that accelerates faster than anything on the road. The wild engineering project shows how innovation can come from the most unexpected places.

A vacuum company just built a car that goes from zero to 60 mph in under one second, and it's not a typo.
Dreame, best known for making household vacuum cleaners in China, revealed the Nebula NEXT 01 JET Edition at a San Francisco event this week. The electric hypercar features dual solid-fuel rocket boosters strapped to the back, generating 100 kilonewtons of thrust that respond in just 150 milliseconds when you hit the gas.
That 0.9-second acceleration claim would make it quicker off the line than every legal road car ever built. It beats the Rimac Nevera, the Aspark Owl Roadster, and even the track-focused McMurtry Spéirling Pure.
The rocket-boosted version builds on Dreame's already powerful NEXT 01 EV, which packs 1,900 horsepower without the pyrotechnics. That base model is scheduled to launch in late 2027 with a still-ridiculous 1.8-second sprint to 60 mph.
Dreame says it's spent the last decade developing the technology. The car features an intelligent chassis architecture, electromagnetic active suspension, and ultra-high-definition LiDAR sensors to spot potholes and pedestrians before you reach them.
The company brought serious credibility to the launch by partnering with Sebastian Thrun. He co-founded Google's X division for moonshot projects and started the tech giant's self-driving car program years ago.
Why This Inspires
This story matters beyond just speed records. When a vacuum cleaner company decides to build rocket-powered hypercars, it shows how companies can dream bigger than their original mission.
Dreame's willingness to invest a decade into automotive technology reveals something refreshing about innovation. Success in one field doesn't mean staying in your lane forever.
The crossover from home appliances to cutting-edge vehicles also demonstrates how engineering talent can transfer between industries. The precision required for powerful, efficient vacuum motors apparently translates well to electric powertrains and advanced suspension systems.
Whether the rocket version reaches production remains uncertain, but the standard NEXT 01 seems genuinely committed to hitting roads by 2027.
A vacuum company is proving that the future of transportation might come from the most unexpected corners of the innovation world.
