Just so no one is confused or misinformed. This system was developed by Bose(Yes, the one they put in a Lexus to test it many years back) who sold it to ClearMotion. They are the ones supplying Nio with the system. The Chinese had no hand in it's development.
Where did the narrator said the Chinese created the suspension? He said NIO created the car that has the suspension in it. Also the Chassis is unique to NIO. And its an EV, not a ICE like Lexus. Also, NIO Capital, is one of the BIGGEST investors in ClearMotion. Meaning NIO financed ClearMotion on this suspension development. So its not WRONG to say NIO owned this. Because they literally do.
or until you hear a CCP worker say something because the CCP worker forgot to mute himself and they spy on you by having a constant hidden call over the cars multimedia device
Don't be confused guys, The Mercedes Maybach has many modes, Comfort,Normal,Sport,Super Sport,The Professional Driver could forgot to switch modes to Comfort.
Tylko dla waszego dobra zomeczki. Pamietajce że wszystko co Chińskie i czesto takie "wspaniałe" najszczęściej jest z tofu jak większość budynków w Chinach albo wybucha jak chińskie elektryki.
Most probably it didnt behave correctly at high speeds in turns. If people get hurt nobody cares how many glasses of champagne you can carry over obstacles.
@@Bungeneer It did behave correctly at high speeds. Look up the videos where they test the system with high speed. However they spend two decades making it perfect, but realized that they won't be able to earn back that money. So, I doubt that your average Joe in the early 2000s would wanna spend $100K on a car that's worth $50K without this suspension. In the comments some people were claiming that this Chinese company bought the system and improved it. Bose's system is almost identical to what you see here. Just look it up on RU-vid for comparison.
And its really not necessary, this isn't the early 1900s when all the roads were basically dirt trails. Roads are all smooth and modern suspensions does the job well enough.
All the flex from Chinese cars until you realize that either the transmission or suspension would give out after a year, the axle would be broken for no reason, or that the battery would catch fire randomly lol
Step 1: Go off road Step2:Damage suspension Step3: arkwardly drive to get repairs with a foot of clearance difrence between the left and right Step4: the bill makes you cry
Fascinating, although it seems to rarely be used in cars, maybe because it completely defeats the purpose of speedbumps and there probably are laws against this particular suspension technology
@@B1gBossMansuspension this good costs more then many base model cars on the road so it only really makes sense for this to be on luxury cars and that makes it seem extremely uncommon
@@B1gBossManit's old and expensive but, it's not common. It's also really heavy and you can't really make it lighter because it uses electromagnets. Above all, it's just overkill. Nobody needs a ride that smooth, and we use the physical feedback of the road surface to drive carefully in rougher conditions.
First thing i checked because you cant trust the chinese. And yeah the first on are round the 2nd ones are flat. So no super tech just chinese propaganda.
Citroën? Peugeot? Maserati? Rolls Royce? Heck even BMW gave this a shot. It had durability and reliability issues. I hope the Chinese succeed though, if they are able to make this a widespread tech and cheapify it then mid range cars might have a shot at having this tech as well.
On my father's citroen XM 2.1 turbo diesel, from 1992, works perfectly fine after 330.000km on the clock and 32 years. You don't feel any bump, and can go over speed bumps in third gear driving 40-50km per hour comfortably.
The wheels are blacked out for a reason, you cant tell how fast its going. The merc was obviously going very slow. Speed makes a big difference on stability
No. Launched vehicles always have blacked wheels and a nun distinguishing colors and logos. So when we see them we don't know what is is and who made it
@@Hondaone1as a Chinese who is reading your comment I can confirm. If you can’t afford mid to high end stuff from china stfu about it and stop being mean
ahh yes such great invetion! ( it was probably copied from another car but they made the building process cheaper so its gonna fall apart after 10 minutes of using it )
@@poplaurentiu4148 Yet the Maybach can keep all their pieces together, It's a Chinese car, shaking off the snow still won't get it all off, it's pretty dumb.
@@y3mi.wyou talk bullshited Chinese scammer The color is different the size is different nio cars burn up a lot in China the media is not covering it and overall quality is not Maybach like
There's a video of the Germans testing the Leopard 2A4 stabilizer using a beer and the stabilizer worked so well with the rough terrain that the beer did not sway much at all
Search "Magic Body Control Mercedes" and you find that Mercedes had that tech for what like a decade by now. Also Chinese never come up with anything on their own, so they naturally had to copy it from someone.
@@MMCPNA Chinese company being honest? In your dreams, not to say that all other companies are honest its just that China has a history of lying, for example the “weather ballon” situation.
@@AceMadefake suspension is also important for gun stability with the best Stab system but worst suspension system your wont get the same performance dosent do much of a impact but still important
@@NicotineRosbergyeah, because it’s literally designed for off-roading, specifically in sandy environments. That’s the reason it has that suspension. It’s even in the adds for it Edit: I should say, it’s not designed specifically to off-road, but that it’s designed with the ability to off-road
@@alwinfrisk735 Still got destroyed in Ukraine, btw western tech is overpriced garbage that's what i realized when saw it burn in Ukraine. Russian tech is cheap and still dose the job.
They did but nobody managed to make a somewhat reliable version of it yet. Almost every top tier brand tried, but either didn't mass produce it or had to quit for some reason.
Fun fact. The Citroen c6 had suspension like this and was the smoothest riding vehicle of its time. It was an hydro pneumatic suspension that used ECUs to determine road irregularities and provide smooth ride over bumps and potholes.It also would reduce emissions and fuel consumption at high speeds on smooth road surfaces because the suspension would lower the ride height, which would reduce drag. This isn’t a new suspension type, just new in china
@@maximeparent3004 Chinese Electric cars have a huge issue with spontaneously going up in flames, especially the BYD cars that are the most popular. So yeah, for 110k most sane people wouldn't take the chance with it
Lexus, Bose, and some auto suppliers out of Detroit came up with this in the 90s. Some markets aren’t willing to pay for certain features so it’s not reappearing until now, in China.
@@joneshgw6378 Look at what the Chinese also build at "half the usual price". Their condos and bridges are LITERALLY build out of Styrofoam and collapse on the regular. Don't believe in Chinese "marketing".
@@mm-hl7ghsir I don't think Apple was around in the Korean war. That's when they start to copy everything. So apple just looked at them and their history and said yes.
This car uses Bose suspension, which they BOUGHT the rights to and made it new and improved here. You racists need to sit down and rethink your entire life, not all Chinese steal ideas, and not all Americans snort cocaine. 🫤.
@@dtar380 yes! but Its way more advance than those old tech from williams, boss and Citroen and plus its a road car and a new system that works completely different from the old concepts. So in a way we can say it's inovative
@@dtar380- It’s "Innovative" not Inventive. It means they made an existing Invention but improve upon it. Much like how the iPhone did against the old Nokia smartphone.
There was a video on why this suspension isn’t more common as it was invented in the 80s, basically it’s dangerous as it isolated the driver from road conditions, same as noiseless tyres that do exist but are outlawed because drivers lose focus on the road.
