Hold onto your seats, tech fans! 🚀 Chinese tech giant Xiaomi just dropped some exciting news that's shaking up the electric vehicle world. Say hello to the SU7 series, Xiaomi's first-ever electric car, starting at just 215,900 yuan (around $30,000). 🎉
Unveiled on Thursday, the SU7 is Xiaomi's bold entry into the electric car market, and they're not holding back. Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun took the stage and confidently declared that the base model SU7 outperforms Tesla's Model 3 in 90% of performance parameters. 😲 And that's not all! The top-tier SU7 Max is set to give the Porsche Taycan Turbo a run for its money. 🏎️💨
Battery life? Check. Smart tech? Double-check. The SU7 promises a whopping minimum range of 700 kilometers! 🚗⚡ Plus, with super-fast charging capabilities, you can get 138 km of juice in just 5 minutes and 350 km in 15 minutes. Talk about speed! ⏱️🔋
But wait, there's more! The SU7 seamlessly syncs with Xiaomi's smart home ecosystem. If you're a Xiaomi phone user, connecting your device to the car is a breeze. 📱🤝🚗 And for all the Apple fans out there, no worries—Lei Jun confirms the SU7 plays nice with iPhones too. 🍎👍
In a stylish move, Xiaomi also rolled out five new color options for the Xiaomi 14 smartphone, perfectly matching the SU7's color palette. Fashion meets technology! 🎨📸
Safety first! The SU7's automatic emergency braking (AEB) system is top-notch. A demo video showed the car autonomously stopping at 135 km/h to avoid a collision. 🛑🚘 That's some next-level tech keeping you safe on the road.
The SU7 series—Basic, Pro, and Max—is now up for pre-order on the Chinese mainland, with deliveries starting in April. Prices range from 215,900 yuan for the base model to 299,900 yuan (over $40,000) for the SU7 Max. Time to rev up those engines! 🏁🔥
