Role: Co-Founder, Chief Designer, Project Management
The N1 is the first electric smart scooter from NIU, revolutionizing the market with its modern, pure aesthetic and state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery pack. Weighing only 10 kg, the removable battery can be easily carried into the home or office for charging. A huge success both in China and globally, the N1 has sold over 600,000 units to date. Its signature “halo” headlight became an iconic feature that continues to define the brand, while the model itself laid the foundation for NIU’s design philosophy—combining high-quality components, original design, and smart technology. As the company’s flagship model, the N1 played a key role in shifting perceptions of Chinese-made products toward high quality.
