The Most Hardcore Owner Testimonial: Why a Nobel Laureate Chose Avatr 07 as Their First Chinese Car

On July 8, 2026, Avatr reached a key brand milestone: Avatr 07 completed the 100,000th vehicle off the line at the Chongqing Digital Intelligence Factory. At the same time, Nobel Laureate and Graphene Discoverer Professor Konstantin Novoselov picked up his car in Singapore, becoming the 100,000th Avatr 07 owner.

Sales milestones represent the market's vote from the public, while the Nobel Laureate's independent choice represents professional endorsement from the global top technology circles. Combined, these two events transcend single-product marketing, breaking the industry dilemma Chinese new energy vehicles have long faced of "hard to gain volume at a premium, hard to break out of the premium niche," setting a new benchmark for China's new luxury brands.

Since its launch in 2024, Avatr 07 achieved the 100,000-unit milestone in less than two years. In the highly competitive high-end intelligent SUV segment, this achievement is highly valuable. More significantly, the 100,000th vehicle rolled off the line was the overseas right-hand drive version, aimed at the global market from inception, highlighting Avatr's inherent global positioning.

The impressive market performance relies on support from the world's first global 5G Digital Intelligence AI Flexible Super Factory. From 0.1mm high-precision stamping body, over 90% high-strength steel + aluminum alloy body welding, to 8-layer coating professional painting processes, full-process AI digital control ensures high quality consistency across 100,000 units. Relying on the smart manufacturing system co-built by Changan, Huawei, and China Unicom, Avatr has overcome the industry-wide issue of quality control declining after mass production, with world-class manufacturing capabilities building the confidence for high-end products to go global.

As one of the youngest Nobel Prize in Physics laureates in history, Novoselov has deep experience in cutting-edge materials, holding extremely rigorous standards for the underlying innovation of tech products. His choice of Avatr 07 was not a commercial cooperation but an independent choice after real-world experience.

In May this year, when Novoselov visited Chongqing, he deeply experienced Avatr models. Seat heating based on graphene technology implementation, original future aesthetic design, and all-scenario high-level intelligent interaction left a deep impression on him. This capability of industrial conversion for cutting-edge technology became the core factor that moved him.

Avatr 07 is the first Chinese car owned by Novoselov. Recognition from a top scientist means Avatr has officially broken through the barriers of the overseas high-end circle, proving that Chinese brands are no longer synonymous with cost-performance ratio, but represent a new luxury with original design and underlying technology innovation.

Along with the soon-to-be pre-sold Avatr 07L completing the product matrix, Avatr's globalization layout will further accelerate.

Summary:

From 100,000 units mass production solidifying the market foundation to Nobel Laureate owner certification of brand value, Avatr 07's dual milestones long ago transcended the success of a single model. It is a microcosm of the Chinese automotive industry's accumulation and release, and more so a powerful declaration of Chinese high-end brands breaking overseas monopolies and establishing themselves in global tracks. In the past, Chinese cars going global could only break out relying on cost-performance, remaining silent for a long time in the global high-end circle; today, Chinese new luxury brands represented by Avatr, relying on original design, self-developed hardcore tech, and world-class smart manufacturing, have achieved comprehensive breakthroughs in value export, high-end breakout, and global recognition. Relying on a mature product matrix and globalization layout, Avatr will also carry the confidence of Chinese manufacturing, continuously battle the global market, and redefine the new luxury standard belonging to China to the world.
