Xiaomi announced on Wednesday that the launch of the new generation of its SU7 model is scheduled for April.
The company plans to deliver over half a million vehicles this year as it prepares to launch its first ever extended-range model in the next few months.
Immediately after the disclosure, pre-sales for the new generation of the sedan opened with a price of 229,900 yuan — equivalent to $32,900.
Similarly to the first generation, the Gen-2 SU7 will be available in three different variants: Standard, Pro and Max.
The cheapest one pre-sale price is 229,900 yuan ($32,900), while Pro is priced at
259,900 yuan ($37,200) and Max is available for 309,900 yuan — equivalent to $44,400.
Prices for the new Standard and Pro versions are 14,000 yuan ($2,000) higher than the first generation, while the new Max trim costs an additional 10,000 yuan ($1,430).
Compared with the first iteration, the Gen-2 adds LiDAR, 700 TOPS of assisted-driving computing power, and 4D millimeter-wave radar, and comes standard with Xiaomi’s end-to-end HAD assisted driving system.
The second generation SU7 brings a new exterior color — named ‘Cabry Blue’ —, as well as a new interior color — ‘Dark Night Black’ — which was “strongly requested by many owners,” according to Xiaomi‘s co-founder and CEO Lei Jun.
New Generation Upgrades
Both the Standard and Pro versions of the Gen-2 SU7 are equipped with a 752V silicon carbide high-voltage platform.
On the other hand, the Max trim features an 897V silicon carbide high-voltage platform.
All variants deliver long-range performance, reaching up to 902 km, equivalent to 560 miles.
Additionally, the new generation SU7 includes a redesigned two-color steering wheel, center console, seat and ambient light.
“The interior has been redesigned, with a major leap in overall quality, and seat comfort has also improved substantially,” Jun stated.
The Success of the Gen-1 SU7
The first iteration of Xiaomi‘s SU7 debuted in March 2024 becoming the first ever model of the Chinese tech giant.
The company secured more than 40,000 units within the first few days.
Additionally, the tech giant managed to achieve 6,900 pre-orders of its SU7 Ultra model within only 10 minutes.
Throughout 2025, Xiaomi delivered over 410,000 vehicles, surpassing the year’s target of 350,000 units, achieved in early December.
For this year, Jun announced during a livestream last Saturday that the target is 550,000 units.
Questioned about the target for 2026, Lei Jun denied on Wednesday the conservative approach by the brand.
Xiaomi‘s co-founder recalled that the three premium German automakers BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi currently sell about 600,000 to 700,000 vehicles per year in the Chinese market.
