Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun announced that the company will officially launch its new YU7 electric SUV this Thursday. The announcement was made via Lei’s Weibo account, where he confirmed that the event will reveal pricing details and mark the beginning of customer orders.

The YU7 is Xiaomi’s second electric vehicle, following the debut of its SU7 sedan earlier this year. Xiaomi previously released key specifications of the YU7 in May, positioning it as a high-performance electric SUV aimed at competing with established players like Tesla and BYD in the fast-growing Chinese EV market.

The YU7 is expected to feature advanced smart connectivity, leveraging Xiaomi’s strong background in consumer electronics and ecosystem integration. Analysts anticipate a competitive price point, which could help Xiaomi quickly gain market share in the crowded EV space. The company’s expansion into the electric vehicle sector is seen as a major strategic shift, aligning with China’s push for new energy vehicles and sustainable transportation.

With the launch event scheduled for June 27, Xiaomi fans and EV enthusiasts are eager to see whether the YU7 can match the hype generated by the SU7. The official reveal will likely include full vehicle specs, pricing tiers, and expected delivery timelines. As Xiaomi ramps up its EV ambitions, the YU7 could be a defining model in its automotive journey.
