Xiaomi EV has officially introduced its first-ever SUV, the Xiaomi YU7. Drawing its name from the Chinese phrase “御风而行,” which translates to “riding the wind,” the YU7 embodies a new direction for the brand, targeting individuals who value independence, confidence, and modern sophistication.
While it shares a design lineage with the Xiaomi SU7, the YU7 is not merely a larger variant. It has been conceived as a completely new vehicle, built from the ground up with a bold, high-performance identity. Combining refined aesthetics, dynamic capability, and advanced intelligent systems, the YU7 offers a new standard in luxury SUV design — balancing space, comfort, and cutting-edge technology in a seamless package.
A Distinct Expression of Family Design
As Xiaomi EV’s second vehicle and its first SUV, the YU7 maintains the brand’s commitment to a design philosophy rooted in elegance and proportion. It builds upon the established design language of the SU7 while introducing a more pronounced luxury profile tailored for urban sophistication.
With dimensions of 4,999 mm in length, 1,996 mm in width, and 1,600 mm in height, paired with a 3,000 mm wheelbase, the YU7 embraces classic high-performance SUV proportions. This includes a 3:1 wheel-to-body ratio and a wide, low-slung stance. Signature details such as a 1:3 head-to-body ratio and an extended L113 measurement from wheel center to brake pedal further reinforce its luxury pedigree. The 3.11㎡ clamshell aluminum hood, the largest of its kind in mass production, integrates seamlessly into the body, concealing a 141-liter front trunk with up to eight opening configurations.
Design enhancements also include redesigned “waterdrop” headlights featuring an open, hollowed-out structure with integrated air channels, delivering both visual edge and improved lighting via ultra-wide-angle illumination. The rear design follows suit with a new taillight configuration and distinctive premium ultra-red lighting for enhanced nighttime presence.
Performance-Inspired Aerodynamics and Detail Engineering
The YU7 introduces a flush-fitting door handle system that improves aerodynamics and visual harmony. These handles deploy automatically as the user approaches and retract upon entry. Ambient lighting accentuates the experience, blending technology with design.
Aerodynamic efficiency is another highlight, drawing from Xiaomi SU7’s multi-duct engineering principles. A total of 10 through-flow air channels and 19 optimized vents work in tandem with a redesigned spoiler, active grille system, and unibody hood to achieve a class-leading drag coefficient of Cd 0.245 — a 59 km CLTC range improvement over earlier figures.
Color Finishes That Reflect Performance and Prestige
Three new paint options are available, each inspired by elements of nature and fine craftsmanship. Emerald Green, reminiscent of Colombian gemstones, uses a dual-layer process with ultra-fine metallic flakes for rich tonal depth. Titanium Silver features larger aluminum flakes to enhance contrast and brilliance, while Lava Orange — first seen on the SU7 — brings a vibrant, dual-coat finish that reacts dynamically to light.
A Cabin That Harmonizes Technology, Space, and Comfort
Xiaomi YU7’s interior is designed around the “Dual-Zone Surround Luxury Cabin” philosophy, integrating advanced technology and passenger comfort. Leading this is the new Xiaomi HyperVision Panoramic Display, a 1.1-meter-wide triple Mini LED setup using curved projection to seamlessly project data onto the lower windshield. With retina-level clarity, minimal reflectance, and high brightness, it adapts to driver and passenger preferences alike.
Additional innovations include zero-gravity front seats, power-adjustable rear seating, and eco-conscious materials that meet OEKO-TEX Class 1 certification standards. Nappa leather upholstery with a refined pebble texture completes the tactile experience.
Redefining Space and Functionality
With thoughtful engineering and CTB-integrated battery technology, the YU7 offers exceptional interior volume and comfort. Designed around a 188 cm occupant profile, it features ample headroom, legroom, and a total storage capacity of 1,970 liters, including a versatile 678-liter cargo area and 141-liter front trunk.
Dual-Zone Luxury Cabin
The interior of the Xiaomi YU7 offers a refined, unobstructed layout that exudes sophistication. Its front dashboard adopts a layered design, seamlessly integrating airbags, screens, and hidden air vents to create a sleek and minimalistic aesthetic. This approach significantly reduces the bulk typically associated with SUV dashboards, contributing to a more spacious, sporty atmosphere. A standard 1.7㎡ panoramic sunroof further enhances the sense of openness, offering a bright and expansive view.
The cabin is available in three interior color options: Pine Gray, Coral Orange, and Twilight Blue, offering light and deep tones to suit different preferences. The high-contact surfaces are padded with 100% soft-touch materials, certified by OEKO-TEX® Class 1, ensuring safety for infants. The Nappa leather seats are finished with a delicately pebbled grain texture, providing premium tactile comfort.
In terms of seating, the Xiaomi YU7 features dual zero-gravity front seats for both the driver and passenger, equipped with one-touch reclining and a 10-point massage system that targets key acupressure points along the back. The driver’s seat boasts a 12-layer structure, providing a balance of support and comfort. The rear seats offer 135° luxury recliners, allowing for smooth, electric adjustment between upright and lounge positions.
Pro Experience at the Entry Level: Performance and Comfort
Xiaomi’s self-developed “three core electric technologies” — electric motor, power battery, and motor control unit — have already garnered significant praise. These technologies have been further refined for the Xiaomi YU7, offering exceptional performance and energy efficiency. The vehicle’s enhanced Xiaomi HyperEngine V6s Plus features segmented magnetic steel technology, optimizing efficiency and increasing range by 4 km. With peak horsepower of 690 PS, a 0-100 acceleration time of 3.23 seconds, and a top speed of 253 km/h, the Xiaomi YU7 surpasses competitors even in higher price brackets.
The vehicle’s robust chassis system includes front double wishbone and rear five-link independent suspension, continuous damper control, and Brembo®️ four-piston calipers. This combination delivers a balance of performance and comfort, ensuring smooth handling across various road conditions. Its impressive 33.9m braking distance from 100 km/h to 0 and a turning radius of 5.7 meters underscore its sports car-like braking performance.
Extended Range and Fast Charging
The Xiaomi YU7 is available in three variants, with the entry-level Standard variant offering an impressive 835 km range on a 96.3 kWh battery. The four-wheel-drive Pro and Max versions offer 760 km and 770 km ranges, respectively. These variants also feature an 800V silicon carbide high-voltage platform that enables ultra-fast charging, with the ability to reach 80% charge in just 12 minutes.
Comprehensive Safety
Safety remains paramount in the Xiaomi YU7, with its advanced steel-aluminum hybrid body structure. The vehicle is equipped with a range of safety features, including a strengthened front-end collision absorption zone, high-strength crossbeams, and bulletproof coatings. The use of Xiaomi’s ultra-high-strength steel significantly enhances passenger protection, particularly in side collisions and extreme scenarios.
Advanced Driving Platform
The Xiaomi YU7 integrates a flagship-level computing platform, featuring a 4 nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip for the cockpit and NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor™ platform for assisted driving. The vehicle also features advanced communication technologies, such as dual 5G and Wi-Fi 7, ensuring seamless connectivity and performance. Xiaomi’s next-generation Electrical/Electronic Architecture (EEA) optimizes energy efficiency and range while offering cutting-edge user experiences.
Assisted Driving and Advanced Safety Features
The Xiaomi YU7 is equipped with a comprehensive suite of assisted driving technologies, including LiDAR, 4D millimeter-wave radar, and 7 anti-glare cameras, enhancing safety and detection in various driving conditions. This system ensures superior performance even in low visibility environments and under challenging weather conditions.
Driving Education
Xiaomi EV promotes safe driving through elite and advanced driving training programs. These courses, designed to improve driving skills and safety awareness, offer practical exercises and theoretical knowledge to help users handle various driving scenarios.
