VINI is a micro-EV thoughtfully designed for urban commuting. It breaks away from the conventional three-wheeler mold—leaving behind the utilitarian feel, lack of comfort, and poor intelligence typical of traditional models. Built on a user-centered philosophy, VINI transforms a simple vehicle into a high-quality lifestyle companion, blending emotional warmth with technological sophistication.

Safety is the foundation of VINI, ensured by a dual "Physical + Digital" protection system. Its core structure features the innovative Jinzhong 8-shaped tubular frame, which forms a closed-loop chassis that significantly improves rigidity, sealing, and resistance to deformation. A full suite of sensors—including front and interior cameras, a rearview system, and millimeter-wave radar—provides constant monitoring from obstacle detection to cabin surveillance, offering complete peace of mind.

VINI delivers a seamless, intelligent experience that balances practicality with emotional connection. Its operation is smooth, efficient, and intuitive, powered by 4G remote connectivity, proximity unlocking, voice commands, and AI-driven battery management. Attention to user comfort extends to physical warmth: heating is integrated into the front and rear seats as well as the handlebars, ensuring a cozy ride even on the chillest winter days. On the outside, VINI communicates through an intelligent lighting system—featuring a through-type oval headlight and a circular ripple taillight—dynamically adapting lighting effects to different driving scenarios. Inside, this blend of technology and emotion continues. A starlight ceiling and customizable dashboard themes elevate functional interaction into something more ceremonial, turning everyday commutes into moments of joy.

In terms of aesthetics, VINI embraces a soft, futuristic vibe with a capsule-inspired design. Sharp edges give way to smooth, chamfered lines, combined with a warm color palette to convey approachability and intimacy. Inside, premium seat fabrics and warm tones further enhance a soothing atmosphere.
