Xiaomi

Xiaomi just unveiled its debut EV - the SU7 sedan. However the company has had a last minute change of heart and will be changing a few minor bits about its design ahead of the market launch.

According to documents published by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Xiaomi has chosen to tweak several elements of the SU7. Xiaomi reduced the brand's name to a more reasonable size. Additionally it added new 21-inch wheels, brake calipers in various colors, and carbon fiber mirror caps.

Targeting competitors like the Porsche Taycan and Tesla Model S, Xiaomi has equipped the SU7 with dual motors. The top-tier SU7 model boasts an impressive 664 horsepower (673 PS / 495 kW), catapulting it from 0 to 62 mph in a mere 2.78 seconds.

Xiaomi estimates the SU7 sedan can cover up to 497 miles between charges. The 800-volt architecture ensures rapid recharging, allowing the vehicle to regain as much as 137 miles of range in just five minutes at a fast-charging station.

Xiaomi SU7 - subtle changes and big aspirations

Earlier today Morgan Stanley has projected an intrinsic value of RMB 90 billion ($12.6 billion) for Xiaomi's EV business, particularly highlighting its innovation in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and integration of "smartphone + EV + IoT."

The shift towards EVs, according to Morgan Stanley, parallels the evolution of consumer electronics, with electronic components increasingly replacing traditional mechanical parts. Xiaomi's unique approach, combining smartphone technology with EVs and IoT, sets it apart from traditional automakers.

It looks like a unique design to me. I would not confuse it for a McLaren, Tesla or any other make of car.

Knockoff McLaren 720s. Can't come with their own designs when it comes to cars either.
