Xiaomi’s upcoming sporty crossover, the YU7, integrates cutting-edge technology and boasts an impressive range of 770 km, according to recent filings with China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT).
Expected to debut between June and July, the YU7 follows the design philosophy introduced by the Xiaomi SU7. It features similar “teardrop” headlights and a front bumper reminiscent of its sedan counterpart. The vehicle’s aerodynamic shape, semi-concealed door handles, and frameless mirrors contribute to its sleek and modern aesthetic.
The YU7 measures 4,999 mm in length, 1,996 mm in width, and 1,608 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,000 mm, ensuring a spacious interior.
A ducktail spoiler and “halo” taillights maintain design continuity with the SU7. Additionally, a roof-mounted LiDAR sensor signals the inclusion of advanced autonomous driving capabilities. Meanwhile, models without LiDAR will still support self-driving technology, showcasing Xiaomi’s commitment to vision-based solutions.
