Move over, Tesla—Xiaomi is revving up the EV race! 🌍 The tech giant just launched its first electric car, the Speed Ultra 7 (SU7) series, and it’s already breaking records with over 50,000 pre-orders in just 27 minutes on the Chinese mainland. 💥
At a glitzy event attended by rivals like Nio and Xpeng bosses, Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun unveiled the SU7’s sleek design, AI-powered cockpit, and seamless integration with Xiaomi’s smart ecosystem. Picture this: adjust your home AC or queue up a K-pop playlist while driving, all via voice commands. 🎤🚀
Priced starting at 215,900 yuan ($29,872), the SU7 undercuts Tesla’s Model 3 by 30,000 yuan and boasts a 700-km range—smashing Tesla’s 567 km. “It’s like Porsche meets your smartphone,” Lei quipped, comparing the SU7 to luxury models like the Taycan.
Deliveries kick off in late April, with tech enthusiasts and eco-drivers alike racing to secure their spot. Will this be the iPhone moment for EVs? 📱➡️🚗
