Xiaomi's New Electric SUV: Xiaomi has launched its YU7 SUV, which boasts a driving range of 760 kilometers, surpassing Tesla's Model Y. The YU7 is expected to be priced between 250,000 and 320,000 yuan, aiming to capture significant market share from Tesla in China.
Market Performance and Competition: Despite a recent decline in sales of its SU7 sedan, Xiaomi delivered over 28,000 units in April. Analysts predict strong sales for the YU7, potentially outperforming the SU7, as it competes against established models like Tesla's Model Y and BYD's vehicles.
