Xiaomi is a company producing cell phones and devices. Sometimes it is called Chinese Apple. It built a price -affordable autonomous electric car, the price of which starts below 30 thousand. dollars, which is a direct attempt to compete with Tesla. Within a few days of releasing the car to the market, the entire planned production series for 2024 was sold out.
When I get into the car, I have to put the key here, which informs the car that I run it. Once I do it, I can move the key and put the phone or other equipment there to charge it. The screen is quite large. It has about 16.1 inches, which is larger than many other screens.
Xiaomi su7 electric driving test

To start the car, I have to press this button. We are moving. At the moment we are driving the Xiaomi Su7 Max. There are three versions of the car:
Max costs 41.5 thousand hole. The price of the standard version is 29 thousand. hole. Both the standard and Pro are cars with rear -wheel drive and a single engine on a 220 kW rear axle. It's 299 horsepower.
Max version It has a double engine with a total power of 495 kW, i.e. 673 HP. It can allegedly get a range of about 800 km.
Standard version It has a range of about 705 km. I have to point out that this was examined with a CLTC vehicle's range test.
The test is biased in favor of driving around the city and this number is exaggerated. I would say that in real conditions the range is half as much.

Test driving xiaomi su7 max
We start. We are going now using navigation and autopilot. Xiaomi did not want to let me try it out, although I drove many cars with these systems before. The car works according to navigation in the system. The destination is entered and activated by pressing the button on the steering wheel.
You can see the road reproduction on the screen. A small vehicle on two wheels goes here. We are approaching the intersection and you can see driving cars. Compared to some other systems I have traveled, it has not been too smooth so far. I should point out that this is a system based on Lidar. Lidar is located above the windshield.
We also have cameras around the car, ultrasonic sensors and radars working on a millimeter waves, the system is to operate in most places in China – both in urban areas and on highways. When Xiaomi launched SU7, they managed to sell out annual production within a few days.

Xiaomi electrician. What about quality?
Now they work in two shifts and produce and sell 20 thousand. vehicles per month. They produce one car every 76 seconds. This is the first car from Xiaomi, but certainly not the last. Next year, the company will release an SUV and then Erev, i.e. an extended electric car. It should be cheaper than this car and probably than SUV.
Many people also compared the appearance of this model to Porsche Taycan. There may be similarities, but there are also many differences. This car has a lot to offer. I am a bit disappointed in appearance because it is a bit borrowed, but it is not a copy. This car has many new functions. It offers a very, very good value for money in the context of China, and Xiaomi obviously has global ambitions.
Will he conquer the world? Well, time will tell.
