At the May 21 Xiaomi Human-Car-Home ecosystem launch event, Lei Jun officially announced YU7 series pricing:

Full performance + luxury

The YU7 GT high-performance variant features a more powerful V8s EVO rear motor, with dual-motor combined output reaching 1003 HP. Lei Jun positioned it as a "grand touring sports SUV suitable for long-distance travel." The vehicle offers five exterior colors and standard 21-inch wheels.

Product Highlights: Performance Meets Intelligence

The YU7 GT's core appeal lies in combining supercar-level performance with SUV practicality:

  • Power: V8s EVO rear motor + front motor, 1003 HP combined, 0-100km/h in the 3-second range

  • Range: Large battery variant exceeds 800km CLTC range, supports 800V high-voltage fast charging

  • Intelligence: Xiaomi HyperOS vehicle system, supports urban NOA advanced assisted driving

  • Design: Low-drag body with coefficient below 0.24Cd

The YU7 Standard enters the mainstream market at 233,500 yuan with a 73kWh battery and 643km maximum range, further lowering the entry barrier to Xiaomi's vehicle ecosystem.

Reference Value for Overseas Markets

While the YU7 series currently targets the domestic market, its product definition logic offers important reference value for international buyers:

  1. Rise of the performance SUV segment: The emergence of 1003 HP-class SUVs signals Chinese OEMs breaking through the "family car" positioning to penetrate premium performance markets

  2. 800V platform proliferation: The GT's standard 800V architecture means future export models will offer dramatically improved charging efficiency

  3. Price anchoring effect: The dual-model strategy (GT at 389,900 yuan, Standard at 233,500 yuan) demonstrates Chinese OEMs' ability to cover multiple market tiers

For prospective buyers in Central Asia and Russia, the YU7 series reveals a trend: Chinese OEMs are rapidly completing the "high performance + long range + intelligence" product puzzle. Through platforms like EX1000.COM, international buyers can expect access to increasingly globally competitive premium Chinese vehicles.

Lei Jun previously responded to pricing questions on social media: "I believe everyone has expectations for this car's pricing—it will definitely be a bit expensive." But by specification, equivalent performance SUVs typically command $60,000+ internationally, making the YU7 GT's pricing still significantly competitive.
