About SU7

The SU7 is the car that made everyone take Xiaomi seriously. Launched in Beijing in March 2024, the low, sleek, four-door electric sedan drew instant comparisons with the Porsche Taycan for its silhouette, and with the Tesla Model 3 for its price. Its interior integrated tightly with Xiaomi phones, tablets and smart-home devices, and orders flooded in on launch day. For a company that had never built a car before, it was an astonishing start, and the SU7 quickly became one of China's best-selling electric sedans.

Reviewers praised its performance, refinement and technology, and the top dual-motor versions are genuinely quick. Then came the SU7 Ultra, a tri-motor version with well over 1,500 horsepower, whose prototype set a blistering lap at the Nürburgring. Not everything went smoothly: a fatal expressway crash involving the car's driver-assistance system triggered intense scrutiny and changes to how Xiaomi markets its features, and other incidents, including fires after high-speed crashes, have kept safety in the headlines. A new-generation SU7 followed with updated technology and safety equipment.

The SU7 competes with the Tesla Model 3, BYD Seal and Han, XPeng P7, Nio ET5, Zeekr 007 and Huawei-backed sedans, along with the Porsche Taycan at the top of the range. It is built at Xiaomi's own factory in Beijing and sold primarily in China, though Xiaomi has shown it at events abroad and signaled export ambitions, with Europe the most likely first step. Its debut reshaped the price expectations of an entire segment.

Coverage follows monthly deliveries, pricing and financing deals, the evolution of the SU7 and Ultra, crash investigations, recalls and software updates, and the regulatory changes in China that affect everything from door handles to driver-assistance claims. Few modern cars have generated as much debate in so little time, and every new headline seems to feed both the fans and the skeptics. Whatever one thinks of the company, the SU7 has already earned a place in the history of the electric car.
