• The upcoming YU7 electric SUV will challenge the Tesla Model Y.
• Xiaomi’s president confirms global expansion plans with a focus on Asia and Europe.
• The SU7 Ultra is now available at a shockingly lower price of $72,800 (SAR 273,000).

Xiaomi’s Global Ambition in the EV Market

Xiaomi, known for its smartphones and smart devices, has quickly become a major competitor in the electric car industry. After the huge success of the SU7 electric sedan in China, the company is now preparing to expand its EV lineup globally.

Xiaomi’s second model, the YU7 electric SUV, is set to compete directly with the Tesla Model Y. While full details remain unknown, the company’s rapid expansion suggests a serious commitment to dominating the EV sector.

Xiaomi SU7: A Game-Changer in the EV World

The Xiaomi SU7 has made waves in the Chinese market, outclassing rivals like the Tesla Model 3 and Porsche Taycan. Its most powerful variant, the SU7 Ultra, is described as “the most powerful sedan in the world”, boasting:

• Three electric motors producing 1,547 hp and 1,770 Nm of torque.
• Faster acceleration than Tesla Model S Plaid and Lucid Air Zephyr Edition.
• 33% price drop to $72,800 (SAR 273,000) from the originally announced $112,000.
• This aggressive pricing strategy makes Xiaomi’s flagship sedan a top contender in the high-performance EV market.

Xiaomi’s Expansion Plans: Aiming for Asia and Europe

Xiaomi’s president, William Lu, recently confirmed plans for a global rollout. While he didn’t reveal exact timelines, it’s clear that Xiaomi is targeting Asian and European markets in the coming years.

However, Xiaomi faces challenges in the United States due to the ongoing ban on Chinese vehicles. This means American consumers won’t have access to Xiaomi’s EVs anytime soon.

What’s Next? The Xiaomi YU7 SUV

Following the success of the SU7 sedan, Xiaomi is preparing to launch its second EV, the YU7. This electric SUV will take on the Tesla Model Y, offering Xiaomi’s signature mix of high performance at a lower cost.

If the YU7 follows the SU7’s aggressive pricing and specs, it could be a serious threat to existing EV giants in the global market.

Xiaomi is no longer just a smartphone brand—it is now a major player in the electric vehicle industry. With record-breaking performance, competitive pricing, and global ambitions, Xiaomi’s EV lineup is set to challenge Tesla and other leading brands worldwide.
