On the evening of December 9, Xiaomi Automobile unveiled thrilling news: its second mass-produced vehicle, officially named Xiaomi YU7, is set to be launched in June or July of next year. This announcement brought immense joy to both Xiaomi fans and car enthusiasts alike.
The introduction of the Xiaomi YU7 will further diversify Xiaomi's portfolio of mass-produced vehicles. According to the latest vehicle declaration information released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Xiaomi YU7 embodies Xiaomi's signature style in both exterior design and detailing. The sleek bullet-shaped headlight cluster, combined with multiple lens designs, imparts a sharp and dynamic appearance to the new car. The large, smoked intake at the front and the distinctive "small fangs" design further accentuate its sporty character.
From the side, the Xiaomi YU7 boasts a sleek coupe-style design with a long, slender hood and dynamic body lines, rivaling even high-end luxury sports cars. The rear end features a robust and muscular design, continuing Xiaomi's characteristic taillights that resemble a widened "concave" shape from a distance, enhancing visibility. The rear bumper follows the design language of the Xiaomi SU7, complemented by a roof spoiler, amplifying the sporty essence of the vehicle.
In terms of dimensions, the Xiaomi YU7 measures 4999mm in length, 1996mm in width, and 1600mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3000mm. These dimensions adequately cater to the interior space needs of most consumers. Powering the new car is a dual-motor drive system with maximum powers of 220kW and 288kW, capable of reaching a top speed of 253km/h, a performance that undoubtedly commands attention.
As Xiaomi's first SUV model, the Xiaomi YU7 offers significantly more interior space than the previous SU7, particularly in the rear, which is excellent news for family users. However, its coupe SUV positioning indicates that it still lags behind traditional SUVs in terms of space performance. Regarding pricing, while the exact price of the Xiaomi YU7 is yet to be revealed, market analysis and Xiaomi's consistent strategy suggest that it should be priced slightly higher than the SU7 but lower than the Tesla Model Y, offering more competitive product capabilities.
Reflecting on Xiaomi Automobile's journey, from its entry into the automotive industry to the launch of its first model, the SU7, the company has maintained a steady pace. Within just one year, it has introduced two new models, prompting many to exclaim, "It has to be Mr. Lei!"~
