During a track test of the Xiaomi YU7 Max, the vehicle came to a halt due to a malfunction in its heat dissipation system, leading to a brake pad fire. In response, the official statement clarified that the braking system operates normally and identified the non-activation of the "Enhanced Energy Recovery" function as one of the contributing factors to the elevated temperatures. Xiaomi further explained that aggressive track driving, characterized by frequent emergency braking, generates significant heat, and under such conditions, organic materials may emit gases and briefly ignite, which is a common physical reaction. The company stressed that the Xiaomi YU7 is designed as an urban SUV and discouraged users from engaging in track driving without proper preparation. Should users desire to explore track driving, Xiaomi recommended upgrading their vehicles and utilizing the appropriate driving mode to ensure safety.
