Chinese Xiaomi presented its second electric car - the YU7 crossover (7 photos)

The Chinese did not overcomplicate the name of the new product, changing only the first letter in the index: if the sedan is called Xiaomi SU7, then the SUV based on it is Xiaomi YU7. The flowing forms of the five-door body with accentuated muscles of the sides resemble the Ferrari Purosangue, the headlights cut with a strip of DRL imitate the head optics of the McLaren 750S. The collection of quotes is completed by a neat "duck tail" inherent in sports models.





The five-meter YU7 with a three-meter wheelbase fits into the framework of a sedan, but has expanded in width and grown in height. According to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China, the crossover is driven by a two-motor power plant that provides all-wheel drive: 295 "horses" in the front and 386 in the rear in total give 681 hp of power.

The YU7 received a CATL battery pack, but the company has not yet disclosed its characteristics. For reference, we can name the parameters of the SU7 battery with a choice of capacities of 73.6, 94.3 and 101 kW h and a maximum range of 800 km on the gentle CLTC cycle.

The maximum speed of a 2.4-ton car is 253 km/ h. Wheels with a diameter of 19 to 21 inches are allowed.

The interior of the YU7 was not shown, but it can be expected that much will be inherited from the minimalist interior of a related sedan, including a 16-inch touchscreen media system. Lidar on the front cut of the roof indicates the presence of an advanced set of driver assistants.

Production of Xiaomi YU7 will start in the summer of 2025 at the company's Beijing plant. The price will be officially announced later, but for now, information has leaked to local media about the range from 250 thousand to 350 thousand yuan, which automatically puts the Chinese car in competition with Tesla Model Y.
