On August 28, Dreame made a splash by announcing its foray into the automotive manufacturing sector, unveiling two car models in the process. The company boasted of holding seven groundbreaking patents related to "reconstructing disorderly opposed car doors." However, a closer look has cast doubt on the global originality of these patents.

Investigations revealed that all seven patents stem from the same underlying technology: a B-pillar-less car door design. This innovation was developed by a mere trio of engineers, yet seven different patent agents were engaged to secure the patents. The lack of global originality becomes even more apparent when considering that Ford had already filed a similar patent back in 2006. Moreover, Geely's 2024 Zeekr MIX also incorporated a comparable technology and proudly claimed it as "globally original."

Further fueling the skepticism is the striking resemblance between the car assembly diagram in Dreame's patent drawings and those of the Ideal L9 and Rolls-Royce Cullinan. This similarity has raised serious questions about Dreame's purported innovation capabilities and the authenticity of its claims.
