Popular YouTube and Twitch streamer iShowSpeed has gone viral for hitting the Cristiano Ronaldo ‘Sui’ celebration in tandem with an actual ‘jumping’ Chinese EV hypercar.

Chinese EVs have become increasingly high-tech.

The clever and modern engineering has led to an increase in cars that can ‘crab walk’ and bounce from wheel to wheel.

But one electric car has invented ‘jumping’ and ‘dancing’, and iShowSpeed – aka Speed – has showcased the tech in a typically eccentric fashion.

Chinese EV Hypercar hits the ‘SUIII’ celebration with iShowSpeed

Speed has grown quite a taste for weird and wonderful cars after rising to fame through the gaming industry and YouTube.

His first was a Lamborghini, which was a tribute to his icon Cristiano Ronaldo, and the collection has only grown, thanks to gifts from Logan Paul.

But after famously doing flips over oncoming supercars, he’s now jumping with them.

During an ongoing stream marathon throughout China, Speed visited the ‘Cyber City’ of Chongqing and bought himself a $250k BYD Yangwang U9.

The car, made by former Alpha Romeo, Audi, and Lamborghini exec Wolfgang Egger, is extremely quick, hitting 0-60MPH in 2.3 seconds.

But its party trick is even more impressive.

Known for its ability to ‘dance’, the BYD Yangwang U9 has a unique chassis that is supposed to help the car brake and handle corners better than any other hypercar.

That has quickly meant people are forcing it to twerk and ‘Suiii’ though, as its suspension can also be controlled via a mobile app.

“It even does the ‘Suii’ chat – the car can even dance by itself, look… This car can even turn by itself. I’m not even pressing anything,” Speed said as he made the car jump.

“These cars in China are crazy, bruh.”

The U9 can even bunny-hop in mid-air like something out of Mario Kart.

Speed instantly bought the car after being blown away by its mechanics, splashing a cool quarter-mil in the click of a finger.

He was also recently sent into a frenzy with another Chinese EV, which, for only $70k, can outpace his own Lamborghini.
