Jump In! We Take You on an E-motional Ride

The younger generation in China is fashion-conscious, tech-savvy, affluent and adventurous. For this target group, a car is not just a means of transport, but another cool tech gadget to own. The new JIDU showroom therefore not only offers information that you can read online, but takes you on a gripping journey of ‘E-motions’. Why ‘E-motion’? The capital E stands for empathy, engagement, experience and environment, which we have staged in a customer journey of precisely orchestrated emotions. Inspired by the incredible speed of development in the field of AI, our space is also in perpetual motion – with interactive features, regular events and art installations. In addition, visitors have the opportunity of creating their own unique journey through the exhibition space. Thereby instilling a sense of connection and belonging in potential customers.

The showroom consists of three areas on the first floor of a luxury shopping centre in Lujiazui Financial Centre, which can be accessed from the outside as well as through the shopping centre. A vibrant JIDU logo on the exterior façade arouses curiosity for the brand and draws visitors into the world of JIDU. The two entrances are connected by a tunnel that displays a large-scale multimedia installation. Moreover, the digital content and the lighting of the portal are constantly in motion, responding to the movements of visitors.

The journey into the future begins in the café, a cubic foyer with two openings that reveal a first glimpse of the different ROBOCAR models. Here, customers are welcomed by JIDU brand ambassadors with a refreshing drink before coming into contact with the cars for the first time. Inspired by the metallic finish of the ROBOCARs, the display area also has a metallic appearance. Against this background, the vehicle models are presented as approachable objects of desire. Visitors experience the tingle of encountering true pioneering technology for the first time – and arriving in the future.

The event area offers a forum for events, film presentations and exchange. With square grids on the wall and ceiling and cube seating dotted about, we play on a pixel theme that evokes associations with computer games, technologies and AI. The journey continues in the studio area, where potential buyers can delve deeper into the world of JIDU. Car parts, colour samples and material variations are presented at an oversized table in characteristic JIDU purple. Future ROBOCAR owners can individualise their car here, which is projected live on a large screen before their eyes.
