The first Xiaomi electric car, model SU7, succeeded tremendously in the market. The Chinese company, therefore, intends to continue in this direction and plans to introduce another model next year.

Xiaomi presented its first electric car some time ago, and it quickly became a hit. The SU7 model stands out with its attractive design, modern technology, and impressive performance. Although inspiration from other models can be noticed, the SU7, from a distance, resembles a sporty Porsche Taycan. The next Xiaomi electric car is expected to be an SUV, a popular vehicle that may resemble the Tesla Model Y.
