XIAOMI YU7: ELECTRIC FERRARI WITH 22ND CENTURY TECH

EV Channels Review

The Xiaomi YU7 SUV is presented as a significant contender in the electric SUV market, aiming to replicate the success of its sedan counterpart, the SU7. The reviewer praises its striking exterior design, comparing it favorably to luxury sports cars, and highlights its impressive aerodynamic efficiency. Inside, the YU7 boasts innovative features such as a massive 1.1m head-up display, a dimmable glass roof, and a highly customizable magnetic attachment system for accessories and controls. The reviewer is particularly impressed by the "magic button" which can be programmed for numerous functions, and the integration with the Xiaomi ecosystem. Performance is strong, with the Max trim offering 508 kW and a 0-100 km/h time of 3.2 seconds, complemented by an advanced air suspension system. Driving dynamics are described as agile and light, akin to a lifted SU7 wagon, offering a more engaging experience than some competitors. A standout feature is the "motion sickness relief mode," which gently adjusts regen and acceleration for a smoother ride. While not a "Model Y killer," the YU7 is positioned as a new benchmark for electric SUVs, much like the SU7 was for sedans.
