A New Chapter in Xiaomi’s Design Legacy: Elegant Luxury at First Sight
The Xiaomi YU7 continues the brand’s dedication to beauty and sophistication, inheriting the family design language of the Xiaomi SU7 but elevating it to new heights. This mid-to-large SUV boasts impressive dimensions — 4999 mm long, 1996 mm wide, and 1600 mm tall — with a 3000 mm wheelbase that perfectly balances sporty proportions and luxurious presence. Its sleek silhouette, highlighted by a 3:1 wheel-to-body ratio and a low-slung posture, exudes confidence and elegance on every urban street.
The YU7’s design is a masterclass in automotive artistry. Its signature waterdrop headlights have been reinvented with a hollowed-out design and integrated air channels, enhancing both aesthetics and lighting performance with a 180° ultra-wide-angle beam. The rear features a muscular, sculpted taillight with premium ultra-red lighting, ensuring the YU7 commands attention day and night.
Innovative touches like the electric-flush door handles, which automatically extend as you approach and retract after entry, combine seamless style with smart functionality. Aerodynamics have been meticulously optimized with 10 airflow channels, 19 vents, and an active grille system, achieving a class-leading drag coefficient of just 0.245 — boosting range and efficiency.
Vibrant Colors Inspired by Nature’s Finest Gems
Xiaomi YU7 offers three stunning paint finishes that bring the SUV’s dynamic design to life: Emerald Green, Titanium Silver, and Lava Orange. The Emerald Green finish, inspired by rare Colombian emeralds, uses a sophisticated multi-layer paint process to create a deep, shimmering effect that changes with the light. Titanium Silver emphasizes brilliance and strength with coarser aluminum flakes, while Lava Orange delivers dramatic tonal shifts for a bold, energetic look.
Inside the YU7: A Sanctuary of Technology, Luxury, and Comfort
Step inside the Xiaomi YU7, and you enter a world where technology meets refined luxury. The “Dual-Zone Surround Luxury Cabin” concept creates a spacious, inviting environment with dual zero-gravity front seats and power-adjustable rear seats, all upholstered in OEKO-TEX certified Nappa leather for a plush, hypoallergenic experience.
The centerpiece is the revolutionary Xiaomi HyperVision Panoramic Display — a 1.1-meter ultra-wide, triple Mini LED screen that projects vital information onto the windshield with stunning clarity and brightness. This advanced system adapts to driver and passenger needs, offering customizable interfaces, real-time navigation, and synchronized vehicle data for an immersive “aircraft cockpit” feel.
Generous headroom, legroom, and storage space make the YU7 perfect for family adventures, with a total cargo capacity of up to 1,970 liters, including a 141-liter front trunk. The panoramic sunroof floods the cabin with natural light, enhancing the sense of openness and connection to the outside world.
Power and Performance: Pro-Level Driving Experience
Under the hood, the Xiaomi YU7 is a powerhouse. Its evolved Xiaomi HyperEngine V6s Plus delivers a staggering 690 PS and 508 kW peak power, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.23 seconds with a top speed of 253 km/h. The dual-motor four-wheel-drive system ensures thrilling performance without compromising efficiency.
The chassis is engineered for both sportiness and comfort, featuring a front double wishbone and rear five-link independent suspension, Brembo® four-piston brakes, and a sophisticated air spring system with continuous damper control. This setup offers precise handling, a smooth ride, and a tight 5.7-meter turning radius — perfect for urban agility and winding roads alike.
Unmatched Range and Fast Charging
The Xiaomi YU7 sets new standards in electric SUV range. The entry-level Standard variant offers an impressive 835 km CLTC range with a 96.3 kWh battery — the longest for any sub-100 kWh electric SUV. The Pro and Max variants balance power and range with 760 km and 770 km respectively, thanks to advanced battery technology and an 800V silicon carbide platform.
Charging is lightning-fast, with the ability to go from 10% to 80% in just 12 minutes and add 620 km of range in 15 minutes, making long trips more convenient than ever.
Safety First: Advanced Armor-Cage Steel-Aluminum Hybrid Body
Safety is paramount in the Xiaomi YU7. Its armor-cage steel-aluminum hybrid frame, built on the Xiaomi Modena Platform, features a 659 mm front crumple zone and a reinforced rear structure capable of withstanding high-speed impacts. The body uses ultra-high-strength 2200 MPa steel developed with AI algorithms, enhancing door beam strength and passenger protection.
The SUV has passed over 50 rigorous safety tests, including C-NCAP and C-IASI standards, ensuring peace of mind for every journey.
Intelligent Platform and Cutting-Edge Assisted Driving
Xiaomi YU7’s advanced Electrical/Electronic Architecture integrates a “Four-in-One Domain Control Module” that consolidates multiple vehicle systems for improved efficiency and performance. Powered by a 4 nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip and NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor™ platform, the SUV delivers lightning-fast computing for a smooth, responsive user experience and advanced assisted driving capabilities.
Equipped with LiDAR, 4D millimeter-wave radar, 11 HD cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors, the YU7 offers superior obstacle detection and safety in all conditions, including low visibility.
Elevating Driving Safety with Advanced Training
Xiaomi EV goes beyond technology by offering advanced driving training programs designed to enhance driver skills and safety awareness. These courses cover emergency maneuvers, cornering, and wet surface handling, empowering drivers to confidently handle diverse road conditions.
Final Thoughts: The Xiaomi YU7 — Where Luxury Meets Innovation
