Early in the morning, Hu Zhengnan, an investment partner at Shunwei Capital, posted real-life photos of a test vehicle cloaked in camouflage, labeling it as a 'much-awaited automobile.' Zhang Jianhui, the Vice President of Xiaomi Group, shed light on the new car's development, disclosing her involvement in the cold-weather testing and sharing dynamic images of the car in action. The four camouflaged SUVs that have surfaced are anticipated to represent distinct models, with the possibility of including Xiaomi's inaugural extended-range SUV, the Xiaomi YU9. This vehicle is likely to be outfitted with an 80-degree battery, providing a pure electric range exceeding 400km. Its length is projected to surpass 5.2 meters, and its height is estimated to be around 1.8 meters. A research report from Deutsche Bank highlighted that Xiaomi Auto is set to introduce a substantial D-segment hybrid SUV in 2026. Furthermore, Xiaomi initially plans to roll out four new car models this year, encompassing an updated version of the SU7, an executive edition of the SU7, an extended-range five-seater SUV, and an extended-range seven-seater SUV.
