The Chinese electronics company Xiaomi wants to offer its electric vehicles in Europe as well. This was confirmed by Xiaomi CEO William Lu to Chinese media. According to the online portal CNEV Post, the launch in international markets is to gradually begin from the year 2027. However, Lu did not specify any particular countries.

In China, the company's still young automotive division has recorded a successful start. The SU7 electric sedan introduced in spring 2024 is in high demand, exceeding Xiaomi's production capacities. In spring or summer 2025, Xiaomi also plans to launch the YU7 electric SUV in China.

Sold out in two hours

In addition, the three-motor performance variant SU7 Ultra with 1,140 kW and a top speed of 350 km/h (approx. 217 mph) was recently introduced. The annual production of the top version, priced at around 70,000 euros (75.908 USD), is said to have sold out within two hours.

Xiaomi, previously known primarily for smartphones and other electronic devices, announced about four years ago its entry into the electric car market and began developing its own vehicle. The SU7, which is being produced jointly with the Chinese automaker BAIC, was first introduced in December 2023.
