Xiaomi has entered the world of electric cars with its new model, Xiaomi SU7 Max EV, recently unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Although it was not possible to put it to the test during the show, it was possible for all attendees to admire it in action at the Xiaomi booth.
It is worth mentioning that this car marks the company’s debut in the automotive industry, and it does so in an impressive way, presenting itself as a direct competitor to the Tesla Model 3 sports car, with solid specifications and an attractive design.
Xiaomi SU7 Max Specifications Highlights
It is important to highlight that the dual-motor variant, known as the Xiaomi SU7 Max, boasts a power output of 673 hp and a peak torque of 838 Nm. These features allow it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.78 seconds, according to data provided by Xiaomi. This speed is notably faster than many conventional cars and beats even the most powerful version of the Tesla Model 3, which achieves the same feat in 4.2 seconds.
It should also be noted that the term “Max” at the rear indicates that this model offers all-wheel drive, providing exceptional performance in a variety of driving conditions.
Attractive design and innovative features
The design of Xiaomi’s SU7 shows influences from other competitors in the market, such as the Tesla Model 3, Porsche Taycan and Polestar. However, the car manages to maintain its own identity thanks to distinctive details such as trident headlights and a sloping roofline that contributes to a drag coefficient of only 0.195.
It is also worth highlighting its exterior aesthetics, highlighted by an attractive electric blue color and sporty touches such as the yellow Brembo brake calipers, which certainly make it stand out in the electric car segment.

Integration with the Xiaomi ecosystem and remaining practicalities
Xiaomi has announced that the SU7 Max will be integrated with its smart device ecosystem, dubbed “Human x Car x Home”. And, although the company has not provided additional details about this integration, it generates interest about the possible practical implications of this interconnection. So far, limited information has been available on how this connection benefits users.
Finally, although Xiaomi’s SU7 Max presents impressive figures in terms of performance, it would be interesting to compare it with other electric cars from similar brands. For it is important to consider models such as the Tesla Model 3, Porsche Taycan and Polestar that could provide useful benchmarks for evaluating not only performance, but also overall user experience, range and other key features.
All in all, the Xiaomi SU7 Max has arrived on the electric car scene with strength and style. Its attractive design and impressive specifications make it a contender to be reckoned with. However, event attendees were left waiting to learn more details about its market availability and pricing, as well as to explore the real practical benefits of its integration with Xiaomi’s ecosystem of smart devices.
