Xiaomi SU7 is coming soon

In 2022, Xiaomi announced its intention to enter the automotive market with its first electric car, the Xiaomi SU7. In September, it was announced that the company will start production when it receives approval from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), which is expected early next year.

The technological giant is busy preparing for the start of production, and a certain number of people are already employed. The HR department is working full steam to hire 100 new workers in the production sector, and some sources claim that some of the applicants, who worked at Mercedes and Tesla, do not meet Xiaomi’s high criteria. Mass employment is expected at the beginning of 2024.

The first photos of the blue Xiaomi SU7 were published on the Weibo social network. It is 4,997 mm long, 1,963 mm wide with a height of 1,440/1,455 mm, and a wheelbase of 3,000 mm. When it comes to the powertrain, there is no information for now, but some information says that customers will choose between two batteries with a capacity of 73.6 and 101 kWh, and that it will have a range of 800 km. Also, it will support 800V architecture for fast chargers up to 350 kW.

The CEO of Xiaomi, Lei Jun, said a few days ago that the SU7 is in the trial production phase and that it will appear on the domestic market in a few months.
