This car jumps - but why?
It's an BYD U9, an electric super sports car with over 1.000 horsepower and going 0 to 100 kmh in less than 2 seconds, while costing only 137.000€.
The video looks funny, but is actually the demo of a "vehicle body control system" developed by BYD. They claim to be the first Chinese company to have developed a fully integrated body control system.
They also claims that this system is industry-leading - world wide.
This is profound, because it marks a milestone of Chinese companies being able to develop such kind of complex tech without any Western help.
In practice the system makes the car safer and more luxurious to ride.
Good show :)
