The Xiaomi YU7 has now been officially launched, following its prior unveiling last December and it joins the SU7 sedan to form the brand’s two-model EV line-up.
The SUV addition to the Chinese brand’s range is offered in three variants:
- YU7 RWD – Single motor with 235 kW (320 PS) /528 Nm, 0-100 km/h in 5.9 seconds, 240 km/h top speed
- YU7 AWD – Dual motor with 365 kW (496 PS) /690 Nm, 0-100 km/h in 4.3 seconds, 240 km/h top speed
- YU7 Max AWD – Dual motor with 508 kW (690 PS) /866 Nm, 0-100 km/h in 3.23 seconds, 253 km/h top speed
In terms of battery capacities and estimated range figures (CLTC), the three variants are as follows:
- YU7 RWD – 96.3 kWh LFP, 835 km range
- YU7 AWD – 96.3 kWh LFP, 770 km range
- YU7 Max AWD – 101.7 kWh NCM, 760 km range
Propulsion is by V6s Plus motors supplied by United Automotive Electronics, running on Xiaomi’s 800-volt platform capable of 5.2C charging speeds bringing an additional 620 km of battery range in 15 minutes, or recharging from 10-80% in 12 minutes.
From earlier information, we know that the YU7 SUV measures 4,999 mm long, 1,996 mm wide and 1,600 mm tall with a 3,000 mm wheelbase. This makes its two mm longer, 33 mm wider and 160 mm taller than its SU7 sibling, while wheelbase is unchanged.
In terms of styling, the YU7 essentially mimics the SU7 sedan in its front fascia and side profile up to its rear doors, albeit with added SUV design cues such as the darkened wheel arch surrounds. At the rear end, the tailgate and rear fascia incorporate a derivative of the SU7 sedan’s full-width tail lamp assembly, albeit with taller arcs at each end and a roof-mounted spoiler.
Under the skin, the YU7 structure features the use of 2,200 MPa ultra-high-strength steel for impact protection beams in its doors, which is claimed to offer load-bearing and energy absorption in the front doors by 52.4% and 40.2% respectively, and for the rear doors at 37.6% and 25.4% respectively.
Meanwhile, hot-formed tubes in the A- and B-pillars form an “embedded roll cage” to fortify the bodyshell, increasing load bearing capacity for the A- and B-pillars by 35% and 70.5% respectively. High-strength steel and aluminium make up 90.2% of the YU7 SUV’s construction, contributing to a torsional rigidity figure of 47,610 Nm per degree.
Chassis equipment for the YU7 is comprised of double wishbone suspension in the front and a five-link setup at the rear, suspended by dual-chamber air springs and continuously controlled dampers.
This is capable of five levels of ride height through an adjustment range of 75 mm, to yield a maximum ground clearance of 222 mm. Air spring rates can vary by 40%, and offers 10% more damping adjustment compared to the SU7 sedan. Meanwhile, braking hardware features Brembo four-piston fixed calipers, which enable a claimed 100-0 km/h braking distance of 33.9 m.
Inside, the Xiaomi YU7 develops on the design theme as seen on the SU7 sedan, with the brand’s new SUV featuring a 1.1 m-wide display located at the base of the windscreen, dubbed the HyperVision Panoramic Display with a peak brightness figure of 1,200 nits.
This is joined by a 16.1-inch central touchscreen infotainment display, while the rear passengers get a pair of entertainment screens, as also offered in the SU7 sedan. The front seats are “zero gravity” units trimmed in Nappa leather, and these offer up to 123 degrees of recline and a 10-point massage capability.
Rear passengers get electrically adjustable seats, and a 6.7-inch touchscreen for infotainment and climate control. For storage, the YU7 features a rear luggage compartment that holds 678 litres, expandable to 1,758 litres with the rear seats folded, and is complemented by a 141 litre front luggage compartment. Meanwhile, the occupant cabin offers 71 litres of storage across various compartments.
Driving assistance systems in the YU7 by one lidar unit, one millimetre-wave radar, 11 high-definition cameras and 12 ultrasonic radars. These are powered by the Nvidia Drive AGX Thor computing platform for assisted driving, which delivers processing power of up to 700 TOPS.
Market launch for the Xiaomi YU7 is scheduled for July this year, when vehicle pricing for the Chinese market will be announced.
The Xiaomi YU7 electric SUV debuts with three variants – the base 320 PS RWD with the 96.3 kWh LFP battery (835 km range), the 496 PS dual-motor AWD with the 96.3 kWh LFP battery (770 km range), and the 690 PS dual-motor Max AWD with the 101.7 kWh NCM battery (760 km range); figures are CLTC estimates.

Much faster than it’s direct rival, Tesla Model Y and Ferrari Purosangue.
15mins charge 650km.
5mins charge 216km.
Acceleration 0-100
XiaomiYU7 3.23s,
Tesla Y 3.7s
Ferrari Purosangue 3.3s
Your definition of “much” faster is very different from human. XiaoMi’s salesman?
O.4 secs feels much faster when we are talking low 3 sec 0‐100 kph territory. Just watch carwow drag races what is the distance 0.4 secs can get between cars.
When it comes to 0-100, 0.5 seconds is an eternity.
Nobody is cross shopping the XiaoMi and Ferrari Purosangue though!

many cancel order of SU7… still come out another model… Afterall , CHINA stuff is still CHINA stuff…. kantoi
You do know there is a lot of propanganda against products from China, right? Your so‐called “many cancel order” is not much higher cancelation rate compared to brands from other countries but of course, critics like you like to seize on that and sensationalize everything.
Many cancel order? Only few hundred people cancel order and the involved variant is SU7 Ultra due to price higher but fake promotion of their add on kit. SU7 sales on Mar is 29k units while Apr is 28k units. Since SU7 launched on Apr 2024 till Apr 2025 Xiaomi sold more than 240k units of SU7. The few hundred people cancelled can call it “many”. And again don’t condemn China EV. In the world most people trusted Tesla and China EV, not Europe, Japan or Korea EV. China didn’t made good ICE cars, but they made exceptional good EV cars in affordable price till the EU and US impose high tariff on China EV to protect their own car brands.
If not euro stuff? BMW no problem ? Jap cars no problem? Western stuff always more aromatic?
YU7 RWD is very tempting. The CLTC is 835km and -22% approximately 650km in WLTP which is very impressive. If based on the EPA standard about 22% off from WLTP this YU7 RWD will still have 510km.
Weekend charge is enough.
Weekday too busy
We need auto stop not auto burn, and the cltc range almost only half of wltp range. Please do not come to Malaysia we scare which will burn other things.
A sample size of 1 from thousands on the road. Xiaomi is committed to find out what went wrong in the accident and the Chinese government is serious in preventing a repeat of accidents involving driving assistance.
Xiaomi can hardly keep up with domestic demand to even consider exporting to other countries so, Malaysia would have to wait.
“We”? NOT everyone agrees with you
wow. xiaomi mix and matched bmw neue klasse interior with ferrari purosangue exterior for their new car. i like
Too expensive to do this
