Xiaomi, known for its smartphones, is diving into the electric vehicle market with its latest creation, the Xiaomi SU8.
Inspired by the success of its earlier model, the SU7 sedan, this new crossover promises a sleek design reminiscent of the Ferrari Purosangue.
Following the massive interest in the SU7, which saw 50,000 orders in just half an hour, Xiaomi is expanding its automotive lineup.
The SU8 aims to cater to the popularity of crossover vehicles with a stylish and muscular design, including rear-hinged doors and hidden handles, similar to the Ferrari SUV.
One standout feature of the SU8 is its rumored range-extending option, addressing concerns about electric vehicle range. This innovation could make Xiaomi a serious contender in the EV market, despite being a newcomer.
With anticipation building for its official release, the SU8 could further boost Xiaomi’s market value, currently over $55 billion.
As consumers weigh their options, Xiaomi’s blend of style, performance, and innovation could shake up the electric vehicle scene, offering a fresh alternative to traditional car brands.
