    Lei Jun: Xiaomi Motors to Expand Globally at the Right Time

    During the 2024 Paris Olympics, Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun traveled to France and engaged with some Xiaomi enthusiasts. One of the fans inquired whether it would be possible to purchase the Xiaomi SU7 in France before 2030.

    In reply, Lei Jun stated: “Our objective is to be among the top five globally, so we will definitely expand internationally at the right time.”

    Xiaomi Motors’ First Electric Vehicle

    Xiaomi Motors launched its debut electric vehicle in March this year. The Xiaomi SU7 is described as a “C-class high-performance ecological technology sedan” and is available in dual-motor and single-motor versions. There are also two battery options: 73.6 kWh and 101 kWh. The car is priced between 215,900 yuan ($29,736) and 299,900 yuan ($41,307).

    For those who may not know, the company sold over 10,000 electric vehicles in June and has increased production to reduce wait times. In June, Xiaomi announced the implementation of a double-shift schedule to meet demand. The monthly delivery target is 10,000 units, and the ambitious long-term goal for 2024 is to sell over 100,000 units within the year.

    Production and Delivery Goals

    With enhanced production capacity and expedited deliveries of the Xiaomi SU7, more than 30,000 units have already been delivered. A report suggests that the 100,000-unit delivery target could be achieved by November this year. Additionally, Xiaomi plans to open 220 new stores in 59 cities across China.

  • Xiaomi SU7 Super Power-Saving Mode – Details

    Xiaomi SU7 Super Power-Saving Mode – Details

    Xiaomi Auto recently hosted an interactive "Q&A program" session for user inquiries about their Xiaomi SU7 electric car. In this interactive forum, they highlighted its emphasis on long distance travel by unveiling an innovative Super Power-Saving Mode designed to extend battery life when estimated range falls below 50km, prompting them to activate this mode for longer journeys if their estimated range dips below that point; additionally they can choose whether or not manually activate or deactivate this function according to individual need.

    Super Power-Saving Mode Details

    The Super Power-Saving Mode helps drivers reduce power consumption by setting various limits to speed, acceleration and air conditioning performance. Furthermore, comfort features like heated seats, steering wheels, ambient lighting and heated mirrors may be temporarily disabled to conserve energy more effectively.

    Energy Conservation Features

    As part of its efforts to conserve energy further, Super Power-Saving Mode temporarily disables intelligent driving assistance, parking features, entertainment systems and the car refrigerator – but users needn’t worry as the mode will automatically deactivate once your estimated range exceeds 300km – also giving drivers flexibility in temporarily overriding speed limits for short intervals if required.

    Monitor And Alert Drivers

    An integral component of the SU7 is a camera located between its steering wheel and instrument screen to monitor driver attentiveness. This camera actively detects signs of fatigue or distraction such as closed eyes, head movements or phone usage which trigger voice alerts and on-screen notifications to remind drivers to focus on driving safely ahead. Xiaomi ensures users that its driver monitoring system strictly analyzes behavior within their own vehicle without recording or transmitting externally stored image data; users who prefer not receiving fatigue/distraction alerts can easily opt-out via central control screen settings of their car/camera setups – giving drivers peace of mind behind the wheel!
