Xiaomi‘s First Car – Xiaomi SU7 First Look
Hello and welcome to the telescope every week we’ll bring you a fresh Insight from the biggest car market in the world today we’re on a very early Peak on the upcoming xiaomi su7 how early well today is December the 17th at the date of filming we don’t even know when the
Press conference will be and we don’t even know when we can release this video so we got very limited information but very helpful I got these data sheets it’s not the whole picture but it’s very helpful to give us a glance of what this car is trying to achieve if you want
Your car to be produced by your phone manufacturer if you’re waiting for the Apple car well this is an early fix it is the xiaomi you know about the third biggest smartphone manufacturer in the world by shipment what I have here in my right hand is a xiaomi mi14 that is
Color matched to this car there are lots of new Chinese manufacturers working on electric vehicles and all of them are more or less trying to break the norm they’re trying to create something new this looking at the site profile here I think you would agree it’s quite a traditional looking sporty Saloon with
Very traditional proportions I would just like to point out one thing is the l113 which is the distance uh between the front axle to the accelerator pedal this distance exists because our longitudinally mounted traditional pedral powered cast this is where the engine is pushed back into the chassis
To create a better weight dis distribution and generally people agree the longer this distance the better looking this car will be this car being pure electric doesn’t have any reason to have this much amount of l113 but it has which is very interesting here at the front I think there’s a lot of
Elements from various Brands being mashed together on the headlight I think this is a combination between the McLaren 720s headlight and the quite iconic optional Porsche daytime running lights the four dots it’s definitely not ugly is it breathtakingly beautiful I don’t think so maybe I’m still kind of getting
Used to this because this is very new I’ve only seen this car for about 10 minutes tell us what you think in the comment section at the rear it’s kind of the same feeling it’s not ugly it’s not an instant classic either there’s a lot of elements here that I’m quite confused
I just like to point one thing out here is the rear Fork light this design element I’ve seen people Photoshop quad exhaust on this car and I think it works better with quad exhaust on this car on the rear end that’s quite strange for full battery electric vehicle so here at
The rear it’s it’s very performance orientated I’ll come on to that in a minute this vents are real since we’re on this all the vents on this car are real it’s very aod driven they are quoting 0.19 5 Dr coefficient for the production car and 120 kilos of
Downfalls at 200 km an hour which is not insignificant for a road car the car we have here today is the su7 max that means it’s the 800 volt jeal motor version monster performance 673 horsepower on a 101 KW battery it’s very performance orientated and you can
See it in a tire specification this is running on 265 40 and 20in rims so this Max version has a wider rear tire than the front on the base su7 you get the same 245 front and rear tires but at this moment we can already confirm there
Will be an even stronger version with an even stronger rear motor I have reliable rumor that that version let’s call it the su7 ultra has broken the laptime record at the J young International circuit and on that laptime leaderboard it’s is a very comprehensive EV list
There’s a Lotus and May and there’s the zika1 frr which we featured a couple of weeks ago so the xiaomi su7 ultra let’s call it for the moment beats the Lotus of Mia and this is xiaomi’s first ever car I think that’s quite some feat being a xiaomi people have very high
Expectation of this car on price at a date of filming we have no information whatsoever on pricing but but I would like to take a guess xiaomi in all of its previous Communications have always stated that this car is not cheap I can definitely understand why this version
Will not be cheap this is the max version 800 volt Jewel motor 100 kwh battery all of those things are expensive however I would like to point out the base su7 which is a 400 volt electric vehicle was just a single motor rear wheeel drive 73.6 KW battery and we know at this
Point that version uses lfp batteries which is a more cost effective version that version has no reason to be out of this world expensive I think there is still a sniffing chance of the base su7 starting at that magic 199,999 ring be price point having watched the footage for a few days I’m
Still not in love with the design but I think I need to give credit when credits due being xiaomi’s first ever Road car it is at least technically instantly competitive even in a world’s most competitive EV Market also it’s not a parts spin collection either xiaomi designs its own motor designs its own
White body and even tuned its own alloy for the Mega casting structure let’s leave the design at aside for a minute if a phone company can produce all of these the platform the motor the car in just 1,000 days there is no excuse for any Legacy Brands to complain about ev’s
Complexity cost and profitability that is all from the telescope today if you enjoy this video keep watching keep subscribing more videos coming along very soon
Xiaomi, the 3rd largest phone brand in the world, started from scratch and produced this car in just 1000 days. And it’s not even half bad!
