Dreame, a name long associated with vacuum cleaners, is stepping into the electric vehicle (EV) world with unexpected force. The company known for making the world’s fastest vacuum motors has teased its first electric car, and the specs suggest it’s not just a publicity stunt. Set to debut at CES 2026, Dreame’s performance EV claims to combine over 1,000 horsepower with an insanely fast drivetrain, tapping into the company’s expertise in high-speed digital motors.
From vacuum dominance to electric cars

The idea may seem strange on paper why would a home appliance company build a car? But Dreame’s track record with motor technology gives it a strong foundation. Its X50 Ultra robot vacuum was recently certified by Frost & Sullivan for having the world’s first 200,000 RPM motor, and the company says it has carried that expertise directly into its upcoming EV.
Unlike brands that rely heavily on legacy automotive supply chains, Dreame appears to be taking a tech-first approach, building a car around high-speed, high-efficiency electric motors. According to early teasers, these motors will help the vehicle accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in under two seconds, putting it in hypercar territory.
Cooling tech and innovation
To support those blistering speeds, Dreame is reportedly using an advanced refrigerant-based cooling system to keep the motors operating at or below 15°C. This low thermal ceiling could allow more sustained performance, a challenge that limits many high-output EVs from delivering repeatable acceleration or top speed.
Interior luxury meets performance
Dreame has also teased that its upcoming EV won’t just be about numbers. The company is aiming to create the fastest luxury car in the world, which means premium interior features, materials, and user experience will also be part of the formula. Whether it leans more into minimalist tech or traditional luxury remains to be seen.
What to expect at CES 2026:
- First look at Dreame’s high-performance electric car
- Electric motors with potential RPMs far exceeding 30,000+
- Claimed 1,000+ HP and <2 second 0–60 mph performance
- Refrigerant cooling system for low-temp operation
- Likely SmartThings/Xiaomi ecosystem integration
- Focus on luxury comfort + innovation
Following in Xiaomi’s footsteps, with a twist
Dreame isn’t the first consumer tech company to enter the auto market Xiaomi’s SU7 is already making waves but it may be the first to do it with such a focused hardware edge. Instead of outsourcing core vehicle systems, Dreame is leveraging its in-house motor innovation to claim a real technical advantage.
With a CES debut just days away, and the electric vehicle industry heating up, Dreame’s bold move could mark the beginning of another unconventional success story in the EV world.
