Xiaomi

The SU7 Ultra, Xiaomi’s new flagship electric vehicle, went against a Tesla Model S Plaid in a drag race and it smoked it.

The car is ridiculously powerful, and it’s about 35% cheaper than the Plaid, which is already affordable relative to its supercar performance.

It’s been a big day for big reveals with the all-new Volvo ES90, a new compact electric city car from Volkswagen, plus a pair of new, over-the-top EVs from General Motors that perfectly exemplify American excess. All this and maybe the dawn of the long-awaited “Tesla Killer” on today’s revealing episode of Quick Charge!

The Tesla Model 3, once the most popular EV in the critical Chinese EV market, has been quickly surpassed by the Xiaomi SU7, and now they are going after Tesla’s Model Y.

Is the mystical prophecy of the “Tesla killer” finally coming true?

Xiaomi’s first electric vehicle, the SU7, took the market by storm, securing nearly 250,000 orders in just nine months. Today, the company launched a new flagship variant with over 1,500 hp, starting at under $75,000. Meet the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra.

Infantile EV automaker Xiaomi Automotive has capped off 2025 with delivery numbers that cannot be ignored. The company has delivered an impressive 135,000 units of its flagship SU7 EV… after launching it in late March 2024. Looking ahead to 2025, Xiaomi looks to more than double that EV output with the help of a second model and an additional phase of its production footprint.

Chinese tech behemoth turned EV automaker Xiaomi Automobile continues to make its presence known in the industry, striking fast and often. Following news earlier this year that it was working on a second flagship model, an SUV, to compete against the Tesla Model Y, Xiaomi has finally unveiled it and shared it will be called the YU7; have a look.

Chinese automakers are emerging as a true threat in the global EV market as they expand overseas for growth. For the first time, half of the top ten global EV sales leaders were from China. While BYD is quickly catching up to Tesla, Chinese tech giant Xiaomi sold more EVs than Toyota after launching its first model in April.

We say it all the time. Scaling is hard. However, that doesn’t appear to be an issue for Xiaomi Automobile, the new EV business arm of consumer electronics giant Xiaomi Corporation. According to a recent social media post by Xiaomi’s founder, the automotive division has built the 100,000th example of its flagship SU7 EV in a blistering 230 days since its launch.

On today’s exciting episode of Quick Charge, Lucid proves than an EV company can keep its promises while Xiaomi teams up with Chevrolet and Honda to prove – at least conceptually – that records are made to be broken.

Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi’s debut into the EV universe, the SU7, has been a hit in China and is set to easily surpass production goals of 100,000 units one month early. To boost that momentum, driven by ambitions to build a global EV empire, Xiaomi now expects to complete the construction of an expansion of its EV factory in mid-2025, which should ramp up its numbers even more – at least, that’s the aim.

The production momentum continues for Xiaomi Automobile, the new EV arm of Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi Inc. Today, the automaker shared it has completed a recently announced production ramp up of its flagship model and is on track to hit 100,000 builds this year… two months ahead of schedule.

Mere days after Xiaomi Automobile debuted a new tri-motor prototype version of its flagship SU7 EV, its CEO confirmed it will transition into a production version called the SU7 Ultra that maintains nearly all the same components. Before then, however, the 1,548hp BEV will chase some world records at a world-famous track.

Xiaomi, the Chinese smartphone-maker that has recently taken a dip into electric cars with the SU7 has now unveiled a hyper-sports version of its 4-door EV in the SU7 Ultra, which it aims to be the fastest 4-door car in the world, gas or electric.

It’s only been six months since Xiaomi Automobile launched its first-ever BEV – the SU7. Following early success, Xiaomi has been developing a second model, and spy images from local media outlets in China have given us a (camouflaged) glimpse at the EV’s exterior design.

Just over a month after launching its first-ever EV, smartphone specialist Xiaomi is reportedly well into the development of an encore model. Per the report, Xiaomi Automobile has already been benchmarking an all-electric SUV model against the Tesla Model Y and may be competing against it in the market sooner than you’d think.

Just over a month after launching its first-ever BEV, smartphone developer, Xiaomi is touting some big production numbers for the SU7. Better yet, such output supports encouraging orders to date as the Chinese tech company is off to a hot start in its newly entered vehicle manufacturing segment.

Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi seems to have hit the ball out of the park with the launch of its debut EV, the SU7, last week. The launch has pushed its market value up by $4 million, with the company now nearing valuations higher than GM and Ford.

Orders for Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi’s brand-new SU7 have been pouring in – with Xiaomi announcing that within 27 minutes of the company accepting orders for the new all-electric sedan, it had already received more than 50,000 orders. Today Xiaomi has alerted potential buyers of a seven-month waiting time before getting the car. Apple, read it and weep.

Less than three years after establishing its own automotive arm to develop and build EVs, Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi sits on the cusp of bringing its flagship model, the SU7, to market. Furthermore, the electronics specialist has high hopes for the vehicle, expecting a large chunk of its 20 million current phone users to consider buying one.

Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi officially unveiled its first electric car yesterday at a launch event in Beijing while declaring its big ambitions to rival Tesla and Porsche and become a top automaker within the next two decades.

The first images of Xiaomi’s SU7 EV have been published by a Chinese government regulatory agency, showing off the car in advance of its official public debut. Alongside the images, various specifications in the regulatory filings are being reported, such as the car’s size, weight, power output, manufacturer, and available models at launch.
