Nio EP9

Developed and built in 18 months, the EP9 debuted at the Saatchi Gallery in London, England on November 21, 2016.

The car has an advanced torque vectoring system that can adjust the power output to each wheel.

The car is equipped with an active suspension, including a ride height controller that makes 200 calculations per second.

The car's chassis construction is all carbon fibre, and is based on the FIA Le Mans Prototype regulations.

[4] The EP9 produces 24,000 newtons (5,395 lbs or 2447 kg) of downforce at 240 km/h (149 mph), similar to a Formula One car, allowing the EP9 to corner at 3.0 Gs.

It also set the record for the fastest lap by an autonomous vehicle at the Circuit of the Americas track.
