The Xiaomi YU7 sits between the mid- and large-sized SUV segment. Its design is centered around proportions resulting in its 4,999 mm length, 1,996 mm width, and 1,600 mm height. It sports a 3,000 mm wheelbase. Key features include a clamshell aluminum hood—which at 3.11 square meters—is the largest used in a production vehicle, the signature “waterdrop headlights” from the SU7 that incorporate air channels, electric flushed door handles, and various venting and even an active grille system that result in a low 0.245 co-efficient of drag. Xiaomi says the YU7 also uses a special paint process, particularly for its Emerald Green and Lava Orange colorways.

Inside, the cabin comes with Xiaomi’s HyperVision Panoramic Display which stretches the entire length of the dashboard. This screen strip shows five information categories from instrument readouts to navigation—all customizable. This aviation-inspired design is coupled with a 16.1-inch central touchscreen. Zero Gravity Seats and plush materials also dot the cabin. Other key features include an expansive 1.7-square meter panoramic sunroof, Nappa leather seats, and rear seats that recline up to 135 degrees.

Like the SU7, the YU7 wants to set the benchmark in terms of performance. It offers a maximum output of 690 horsepower and 528 Nm, enough for a 0 to 100 km/h time of 3.23 seconds. Top speed is set at 253 km/h. This groundbreaking performance is down to Xiaomi’s HyperEngine V6s Plus electric motor.

Putting all that power under control, the YU7 comes with Brembo brakes with four-piston front calipers, a double-chamber air suspension system with continuous damper control and adjustable ride height (+/- 75 mm). The three variants of the YU7—Standard, Pro, and Max—are differentiated mainly by its battery capacity. The standard range is around 835 kilometers using a 96.3-kWh battery, topping out at 101.7-kWh for the Max. Ranges vary from 760 to 835 kilometers depending on the variant.

And with an 800-volt architecture, Xiaomi says the YU7 can achieve a 10 to 80 percent charge time in just 12 minutes. It can add 620 kilometers of range in just 15 minutes.

Despite the fiery crash of an SU7 that has the Chinese government regulating self-driving tech, the entire Xiaomi YU7 range is still equipped with Lidar, 4D millimeter wave radar, and anti-glare cameras for advanced assisted driving systems. Its processors are powered by the new-generation NVIDIA Drive AGX Thor offering ultra-fast response times.

The Xiaomi YU7 goes on sale in China this July. No word if it’ll be offered in markets such as the Philippines at a later time.
