While the world was still discussing "Chinese EV involution", a domestic luxury SUV with an average price exceeding one million quietly had a Nobel Prize in Physics laureate swipe their card. On July 9, 2026, Singapore, the "Father of Graphene" and Nobel laureate Konstantin Novoselov personally received a set of car keys — he was not endorsing it, but paid out of pocket, becoming the 100,000th owner of the Avatr 07. This was not just a delivery, it was a "Nobel-level certification" of Chinese high-end manufacturing in the heart of the global luxury car market.

The delivery was held at the Avatr Singapore store, the scene was not large, but the significance was immense. This globally top "hardcore scientist" stated directly on site, admitting he was "bewitched" by this car when he went to Chongqing in May this year. "Its design does not resemble a product of this era, the cabin features an enveloping interaction full of technology, making me feel like I am conversing with an emotional machine." Novoselov even used "unforgettable" to describe it. He made it clear, this is the first Chinese brand car in his garage, choosing the Avatr 07 was entirely because it fit his aesthetics, and met an physicist's ultimate rationality and daily comfort needs. For a mind that has seen the world's top technology to be amazed, the value of this car is self-evident.

So what exactly is the car picked by the Nobel laureate? Avatr 07, positioned as a smart and beautiful urban luxury SUV. In Singapore, its starting price exceeded 1 million RMB, directly entering the core price range of Porsche, BBA flagship models. On what grounds? Based on the original design of futuristic aesthetics, first-class cabin-like luxury feel, and six hardcore technology moats. In terms of intelligence, performance, safety, and luxury, it delivered a "fully loaded, no compromise" experience. Since launch, 100,000 global owners have voted with real money, the Avatr brand's global cumulative sales have even broken through 260,000 units. This data might just be the passing line for new forces in China, but placed in the overseas high-end market, that is a rare "high premium breakout" for Chinese brands.

More terrifying than selling well is who is buying. Besides this Nobel laureate, Thai Deputy Prime Minister, King of Bhutan, Qatari royal family members... on the list of cars for these political figures and celebrities, the name Avatr appeared. This "top opinion leader" chain effect is more effective than any advertising placement. Since entering Singapore in 2025, Avatr joined forces with local giant DPL Premium Automobiles, adopting a "high-profile direct sales" service route. As of now, Avatr has entered 43 countries and regions, and declared it will cover over 110 by 2030. In the parking lots of Middle Eastern tycoons, the villa areas of Southeast Asian new rich, this Chinese-made "new luxury" is encroaching on the turf of traditional luxury cars.

When Nobel laureates start voting with their intellect, when million-level prices are no longer the patent of Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea, Avatr's story tells us: the second half of Chinese new energy cars is not about price wars, but about cognitive wars. Even satisfying the physicist's rigorous standards, how much black technology does this domestic "million-dollar masterpiece" still have? Who will be the next global top star to be conquered? We wait and see.
