On February 25th, GAC NIO officially released its in-car voice assistant. This voice assistant is named "Xiao CAN" and will be equipped in GAC NIO's first model, the HYCAN007. Below is the relevant information: Xiao CAN: Xiao CAN measures 2 inches in size and currently has over 30 different expressions, with more than 100 additional expressions under development according to official sources. Additionally, users can become "Xiao CAN" trainers through a mobile app, helping Xiao CAN acquire more skills. GAC NIO: Last May, GAC and NIO jointly launched a new brand called "HYCAN," with Mr. Liao Bing serving as CEO. Currently, HYCAN has introduced an SUV model named HYCAN007. The vehicle comes with two range versions: 523km and 643km, and the new car is set to be launched and delivered in April.

I often use the voice assistant in my NIO car, called NOMI, which is quite adorably designed, resembling a little robot head that rotates on the dashboard. While driving, I just need to say "Hey NOMI" to wake it up, and then I can command it to turn up the air conditioning temperature, plan a navigation route, or play my favorite playlist. It responds quickly, with hardly any lag. However, sometimes when there's a lot of ambient noise, it might misunderstand my commands, and I have to repeat them. But overall, the experience is much better than my friend's BMW voice assistant. NOMI can also automatically adjust the lighting based on my habits, such as turning on the lights when it gets dark, which makes daily driving more reassuring. I've found that it supports multiple dialect recognitions, even understanding my hometown dialect, which is quite thoughtful.

As a car user, NIO's voice assistant is named NOMI, and it's very simple to set up—just activate it in the vehicle's system. Its main functions include helping you control various in-car settings, such as opening windows, checking the weather forecast, or adjusting seat positions, with responsive performance. I often use it to change navigation destinations on the highway, eliminating the hassle of manual operation. Compared to other brands, NOMI is more user-friendly than Tesla's system, thanks to its physical disc that displays changing expressions, making it feel like a little companion. However, be aware that performance may degrade when the battery is low. I always remind new users to ensure the car is fully charged before setting off to avoid affecting voice recognition. Overall, NOMI enhances driving convenience and is worth recommending.

I think NIO's voice assistant, called NOMI, is feature-rich and practical. While driving, I can use it to set a destination, turn the interior lights on/off, or find nearby charging stations. The operations are not complicated, and even beginners can quickly get the hang of it. For example, on a rainy day, just saying 'Turn on the front window defogger' and NOMI handles it. The design includes a round screen that can rotate in response to commands, adding a bit of fun. However, recognition occasionally fails in noisy sections, so I adjust the volume to improve accuracy. Compared to Audi's voice system, NOMI focuses more on interactive emotions, making it more suitable for family use.

If you're curious about the name of NIO's voice assistant, it's called NOMI, which features a unique design with a movable disc on the panel. It handles daily tasks like adjusting air conditioning temperature and playing music, activated by the wake word "Hey NOMI". In my experience using the car, compared to Mercedes' system, NOMI responds faster but occasionally misinterprets commands in noisy environments. Users can also customize commands in the settings for personalized control, such as setting up frequently used navigation points. NOMI's emotional feedback makes the driving process less monotonous, enhancing the overall experience.
