Xiaomi, known for its innovative technology products, is taking a bold step into the electric vehicle (EV) market with its SU7 series. These vehicles, including the standard model and the more advanced SU7 Pro and Max versions, are set to compete directly with established players like Tesla and Nio.
What sets Xiaomi’s EVs apart are their impressive specifications that include autonomous driving technology, a comprehensive software ecosystem, and fast charging capabilities. The company aims to offer these features at a price point below RMB 300,000 (~$41,425), making them more accessible to a wider consumer base.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicts that Xiaomi plans to ship between 50,000 to 60,000 units of the SU7 series, signaling the company’s commitment to the EV market. Xiaomi’s own factory will oversee the manufacturing process, while BAIC Group’s off-road vehicle division will lend its expertise and production qualifications.
This move into the EV space represents more than just the introduction of new products for Xiaomi. It also introduces the concept of the “Human X Car X Home” ecosystem. By integrating its HyperOS operating system across its EVs and smartphones, Xiaomi aims to create a seamless experience for users, blurring the boundaries between different technological devices.
This strategic expansion puts Xiaomi in direct competition with other major EV manufacturers like Tesla and Nio. Tesla, in particular, has seen a recent decline in its sales in China, making room for Xiaomi to make its mark in the market.
