Global Debut of the Most Beautiful Model: AI-Driven Hypercar ROBO X
"Passion" symbolizes intense enthusiasm and strong dedication. As a brand dedicated to automotive robots, Ji Yue has consistently embraced passion for intelligence and pursued design aesthetics. Over the past year, Ji Yue has continuously challenged, broken through, and surpassed itself.
ROBO X, the latest masterpiece from Ji Yue, represents another passionate expression in the era of intelligent automobiles 3.0. It is the world's first AI-driven hypercar, a dream car for young people, combining extreme aesthetics, cutting-edge AI technology, and ultimate performance. It sets the direction for future electric hypercars and reshapes the competitive experience in racing driven by AI. Xia Yiping stated, "In the next 20 years of hypercar design, the influence of ROBO X will be evident. ROBO X, born from extremity and originality, is the best design in China's automotive history and a milestone."
Design beauty is a classic element of traditional supercars, and ROBO X elevates this to new heights, earning the title of the most beautiful model at the Guangzhou Auto Show. Following the AI aesthetic design philosophy of "Less is More," ROBO X pursues "Do More with Less" and integrates intelligent technology into car design, showcasing breakthroughs in Chinese original design.
Inspired by fighter jets, ROBO X features an excellent hypercar proportion, combining smooth lines with sharp edges, exuding a sense of futurism and sportiness. The cockpit design, inspired by fighter jet cockpits, features eagle-wing doors and a split double-piece rear wing, creating a visually striking presence and superior aerodynamic performance.
Ji Yue's commitment to design aesthetics has earned numerous accolades within the industry, including titles such as "The Most Beautiful 7 Series" and "The Most Beautiful Supercar." In 2024, ROBO X won the Red Dot Award and the German Design Award. To date, Ji Yue's designs have received over 20 international authoritative design awards, including the Red Dot, iF, and Japanese Good Design Awards.
The unprecedented achievement stems from the deep integration of AI technology. Empowered by Apollo's autonomous driving technology, ROBO X is the first to apply pure vision high-level autonomous driving technology, equipped with a global-leading intelligent driving model, achieving "track-level autonomous driving." This marks the first time L4-level autonomous driving capabilities have been applied to a track, breaking the boundaries of traditional supercar design.
The intelligent cockpit of ROBO X is equipped with industry-leading AI voice models, designed to maximize the driver's human-machine interaction experience. Owners can issue voice commands to SIMO to check information such as motor torque, chassis dynamics, and thermal management, better controlling different driving states. Additional features like adaptive lighting and real-time feedback further enhance the driving experience.
ROBO X is also a performance beast, equipped with a high-performance drive system, achieving a 0-100km/h acceleration of less than 1.9 seconds, providing a maximum range of over 650km. The one-piece carbon fiber frame and 5052 high-strength aluminum alloy create an extremely lightweight yet robust body structure.
ROBO X is now available for pre-order on the Ji Yue website or app, with a deposit of $1,012. Production is expected to begin in 2027.
