This thread made me curious so I ordered the part November 8. Delivered Nov 10. 2.2 RMB + 6.5 RMB shipping. ($1.21 total).
Western engineers often have no exposure to the cheap CNC work being done in China. Your milling costs are China's margin

Pre-hike, roadside ☕️ in Gansu. No Nescafe here. Impressive set up.

A comprehensive SU7 experience organized at the track.
Oh no. Xiaomi organizes track day with champion driver - crashes car Xiaomi is probably the hottest Chinese car brand, but its SU7 sedan has a reputation for crashing. To teach its customers how to drive fast & safe, Xiaomi organized a track day, grandly called "Xiaomi Auto Elite Driving Advanced Driving Training Course" in Beijing. The main teacher was touring car champion Xie Xinzhe. The company stated: "Xiaomi's advanced driving training will train 10,000 Xiaomi car owners for free in more than 10 cities across the country to improve safety awareness and car control capabilities. This will definitely have a positive effect on road safety." The course included: steering wheel grip, safety awareness, driving awareness, acceleration braking + emergency lane change, and more. Sadly, not all went well. On the first day of the course a blue SU7 Max crashed into a barrier on the side of the track. The car ended up immediately behind a Xiaomi Driving Experience board. The car was immediately covered up with a gray cover. Fortunately, the driver was okay. At present, the specific cause of the accident is not clear. The training continued a little later. @Xiaomi @XiaomiHyperOS_ $XIACF #Xiaomi #EVs #Racing #China

NWM is just doing things that Banyan 3.1.6 wouldn’t even try…like this 4 into 1 intersection.🎉 Briefly tried out the new “joyride” function on the highway too. Feels more natural. Smoother acceleration and braking. More assertive lane changes.

The wagon had an OTA update to Banyan 3.2 (NWM) this morning. 🎉 Promptly headed out for a 50km drive in the rain. Mixed route on surface streets and narrow country roads without center markings. So many scenarios where the previous versions just gave up were no problem.🤯

Successfully navigated around trucks, scooters, bikes, trikes, pedestrians partially or completely blocking the lane on roads with and without lane markings. Handled 3 lane into 2 lane cross intersection transitions. Obstructed right hand turns. @NIOGlobal

Not a comprehensive test by any stretch. Didn't try the highway improvements, parking improvements or toll booth navigation, but first impression for previously mentioned scenarios is this is a substantial leap forward. This was with a first generation NIO ET5T.

I heard an antique car starting up the other morning while I was out walking the dogs. Such as strange sound these days. 🔋🚗

The new NIO ES6 is in a few Shanghai showrooms today. Pick your favorite color combo. Crazy that they didn’t even show this at the auto show.

Just visited the local NIO showroom in SH and was told I could see the 2025 EC6 tomorrow and the 2025 ET5T around May 20. NWM OTA still expected 1st week of June. Sat in the Firefly as well. Sweet urban car.

A little something for the T&D folks out there. If you look closely those are 8 conductor bundles. 56 conductors on this tower🤯 Kinda makes my little 100 mile 345kv line seem insignificant. 😢

It’s interesting listening to people talk about AI and EV infrastructure and then realizing they are only referring to H100’s and DC fast chargers.

Made a last minute trip to the Shanghai bike show. These Lewis levers feel so solid. My MTB might be in for an upgrade…
