Sure, you have to call Xiaomi like Shaomi, but shame on you for making fun of people not properly pronouncing Xiaomi when you are so, so off when pronouncing Ferrari. Initially I didn't recognise the brand and I had to go back and listen again.
XiaoMi the word means "small rice" aka millet, the food of the poor & also fed to animals --- this is NOT about $2000 USD iPhone but affordable FOR THE PEOPLE. The company is all about values!
@@sarkplex how about use a tiny bit of critical thinking when you watch channels like china observer, they do everything including twisting the facts to spread anti ccp propaganda - even to me this has nothing to with xiaomi, but that makes China looks bad so they are gonna do it anyway.

I understand that the designer formerly worked for Porsche. The CEO of Ford bought one to assess it and it’s his daily driver. In an interview he actually said he liked it so much that he’d hate to give it back.
Having just returned from China for a few weeks of vacation I was shocked by the quality of the cars in a very positive way. Especially in interior design, so clean but futuristic. I always thought I knew my cars but felt embarrassed walking into car shops in malls and seeing some amazing cars and not knowing the manufacturers! It's sad that many naive westerners will automatically dismiss cars from the Chinese market based on stupid false stereotypes.
If cars from China are actually as bad as the stereotypes say, the US wouldn't be panic slapping a 100% tariff on them just to keep them out of the American market.
I was in Shenzhen last summer and saw my first BYD Seal in person. I acted like a little boy in a candy shop, it's even better looking IRL. I don't think many westerners have any idea just how far ahead China is in EVs and the remarkable variety available. And I agree, it's so aggravating to see people who have never been to China nor know anything about their EV makers making blatantly false comments about them. My prediction is that this is just the beginning and China is starting to pull away from the rest of the world. Egger, the BYD chief designer, mentioned that BYD can go from concept to production in 2 years vs. 5 years for western companies. The gap is going to continue to grow and in 10 years, western auto companies will either be effectively dead or will have completely reinvented themselves.
It's not the stereotypes about Chinese manufacturing or build quality we're worried about, it's how your government's constant human rights violations to its own citizens, recent genocides, and botched biological weapons that make Americans hesitant in buying something they are trusting their lives to, on top of the concern your government is going to drain their bank accounts while spying on us. We know you're spying on us, it's just to what extent that stolen information gets used.
@@rebym Well it's kind of a silly comparison when copyrights mean nothing and you can just steal everybody else's homework, right? Everybody else is playing by the rules except China, so it's not exactly a fair comparison.
😂😂😂 high tech?! Do you mean the technology that Chinese companies steal from western companies and try to duplicate, poorly? Remember, there is no incentive for workers in China to excel at their jobs.
As a Computational Fluid Dynamics engineer, I will tell you no matter where designers & engineers work, when you plug in the same factors & criteria, you get the same design out of softwares - its math and engineering, nothing to do with "copy cat".
It is everything to do with copycat design. There are several different cars on the market with marginally or barely any difference of coefficient of drag, and they all look very different visually. I don't know if it's a Chinese design culture thing, but if I had a car company who were producing copycat designs I'd fire the designers. They are ripping off existing designs to save money.
All designs will ultimately converge to a single outcome due to the optimization via analytical/computational modelings (FEA/CFD) substantiated by prototype testing.
If they can keep similar prices in Germany I am buyin one. I bought my first Xiaomi phone 3 yeara ago and its still going strong. Its high quality product.
Well you have no idea about ev pries here in Germany. Here is an example: Ora funky cat is sold in Germany. Its base model costs 26990 Euro and the same car sells in China for about 13600 Euro.
If you want to produce an electric car in China, you only need to build a factory at the mouth of the Yangtze River. They can buy all the accessories needed for electric cars nearby.
China granted Tesla the right to set up a wholly owned factory in China and granted it preferential land and loan conditions, but the requirement was that almost 100% of the components must be produced in China, thus boosting China's electric vehicle industry.
China is way ahead of the US in EV market. Over 100 manufacturers to some degree, which harkens back to when the majority of auto manufacturers were based in Indiana. Good review.
I'm on the comfort and connectivity team ❤. I drive because I need to and not because I like it. After work I want to get into a car with pleasant temperature (I live in Brazil, it's hot here), with comfortable seats and a good sounds system to listen my fav playlist while I move at 10 km/h in traffic jam. The SU7 says to me: girl you can have much more than that 😂 It would be my dream car if it were a compact hatchback 😊
I think the vast majority of people who drive are just like you! They care about comfort, connectivity, and anything else that will make their commute safer and more pleasant. PS. Thanks for being one of our first members! We genuinely appreciate the support!
Good thinking about the compact hatchback, I also think that a lack of a modern, not too expensive and reliable EV hatchback is a what most of the new EV car buyers want.
Alot of people compare this to Apple Car's scenario, and rightfully so. There are multiple reasons why Xiaomi was able to make a car, in a shorter time, lower R&D cost than Apple did (and ultimately failed/given up). Making EV's is in simple terms, like a Lego car. You pick what batteries you want, what autopilot system you'd like (Horizon Robotics? or Huawei? or others?), you pick what electric motors you want, or even licence existing platforms (if you didn't want to make one yourself). and Wallah, you've got an EV, with your design and your badge. Xiaomi being in China was able to hand pick these items like walking into a supermarket. Any battery size, and electric motors, and materials and software packages. Apple on the other hand couldn't. There was no supply chain, there were no options. The EV suppliers for the better part of last 10 years, and even today, is miniscule. Parts are on shortage, technology is old, then add on there US sanctions and requirements for Federal Tax Credit (including Union bullsh1t, and "Made in USA" requirements), then you've got a super restrictive R&D environment, and ultimately, Apple gave up on it. Elon said himself, the Cybertruck delays was heavily due to lack of suppliers and technology available to them. Supplier's didn't want to invest in R&D to make suitable offerings for the Cybertruck. So Tesla has to navigate this themselves, and takes hell of a lot longer than off the shelf industry supply chain. This is the perfect example of "How protectionist taxes, tariffs and trade barriers, will end up being the demise of your industry" The more you try and protect an industry from natural selection, the more you pave the way for it to fall.
I live in China for 14 years... Still driving my lil Mazda 2 but my next car will be a Chinese EV, maybe this one? Have a Xiaomi phone, laptop etc etc. 😎
i advise you do not buy Chinese EV! your Mazda 2 would run much better than any Chinese EV cars.... anyone buying Chinese EV regrets buying 2-3 months after purchase.... definitely stay away from Xiaomi! their after sales supports sucks balls!
@@GreatBodoh No, the english X is usually pronounced like a z as in xylophone, or like ks as in taxes. The Chinese x usually sounds like sy in English imo, and some Chinese people with regional accent pronounce it sh.
If anything, it is less bulbous and better proportioned than the Taycan. I thought the SU7 looked more inspired by McLaren, all be it more practical and much better priced. Otherwise a stunning first car, setting very high expectations for what is next. Personally I use a Xiaomi cordless air compressor that is incredibly useful for our bikes and car, it even looks good - others said they don't last long, but ours is 7 years old.
People make all sorts of excuses for Chinese products. It goes from the government, to politics,to cheap products, to human rights, and so on. Not only do these individuals normally buy the cheapest of these products and then wonder why they break, they usually have the incentive to go and tell everyone their products aren't very good.
@@vueport99 The front of the Taycan is trying too much to look like an electric 911- something Porsche seems doomed to repeat - hence the bulbous nose. Whereas I don't see that on the front of the SU7. But each to their own. Enjoy your Taycan!
@@Lena-vw6ye not sure what you talk about , All my cordless tools are Made in China, brands like Dewalt ,Ridgid, Milwaukee. My LG fridge and washer Dryer are Made in China, and GE is Chinese owned and all their products are Made in China. I don't like Chinese when it comes to politics and human rights and the SCS issue. But when it comes to manufacturing everything or 90% will say Made in China, check the box it comes in to see what I mean.
@@balachandrank8800 You read rumors and attacks by professional posters organized by its competitor Huawei. The two companies have fierce competition in the mobile phone and automobile business. Unfortunately, because Huawei has certain advantages politically, this situation There is no way to mitigate it. Previous attacks and smear campaigns focused on BYD and Li Auto. When Xiaomi entered the industry, Xiaomi became the biggest target of attacks on Huawei cars! Because they are afraid of Xiaomi’s capabilities!
I love watching your videos from here in France. The quality, inventiveness and marketability of all the Chinese vehicles you present is a measure of the denial that automotive journalists and the entire industry in Europe are in. This one is the synthesis. It's going to hurt, and soon!
Tu n’as même pas idée . J’étais à Dubaï ce mois ci où j’ai pu voir geely, et 3-4 autres marques. Ce qu’ils vendent pour 20-30k€ est juste inimaginable .
@@Tetrathegod Who tf cares, Xiaomi is one of the worst manufacturers in the Chinese car market. This car is like in the bottom 10% of what you see in China. It is not indicative or representative of Chinese cars, which you can easily find on UA-cam.
Epic ending line! Love that you set aside all the hate and nay saying of chinese cars and just focus on the product. More people need to do that. More Power!
@@ida529200 That is actually right on the nose. US FMVSS safety standards differ (not necessarily better or worse, just different) from the NCAP safety standards the rest of the world uses. And what is the one country whose CMVSS safety standards essentially mirror the US standards? Canada of course. The upshot to this is that only cars designed to sell in the US market will end up selling in Canada. No car company is going to all the expense of making their car meet these regulation just to sell in Canada alone. Mexico is a whole different story, since they use NCAP standards so a car designed to sell in China or Europe can be modified to meet Mexican standards fairly easily. But now that the US have quadrupled its tariffs on Chinese cars all the way to 100%, Xiaomi or any other Chinese EV maker will be steering clear of the US market, and by extension, the Canadian market as well.
No it's not, it's not even NEARLY as good as the Porsche. Stop talking nonsense. It doesn't even come close in quality, refinement, comfort, handling, chassis quality, etc.
Taycan is a car for car enthusiasts who want more important things from their cars than a lot of useless junk in the infotainment...you know...like high quality chassis, great handling, great comfort, refinement, etc. Things this car can't even come close to compared to the Porsche.
Impersonally prefer infotainment in a car to the minimum as it distracts me less from driving. What I like about this car is that they provide the physical buttons add-on that enables to control basic and frequently used functions of the car.
@@derbigpr500 Is that why the residual value of the Tayan dropped to an all time low in 2023? So low that even Porsche dealers are no longer interested in buying back one or two year old cars. Also it's widely know that the Taycan has MASSIVE traction battery problems, at this moment around 30% of all Taycans have a defective of very high degraded battery, even for low miles cars.
Believe me, we here in the US would be veeery exited to get all this amazing chinese ev’s. But the government has to protect jobs here.. that tells everything to know.. if chinese cars enter here.. they would crush our domestic industry
Mind boggling!🤯 This makes the Tesla Model 3 a dinosaur, I know it is ageing but it's definitely so behind including the Refresh version. I also now get why Xiaomi started with a sedan instead of crossover SUV with more demand, they actually don't want too much demand for now as they learn the early manufacturing/design issues. At this rate, Xiaomi should make their own EV batteries and home energy storage batteries/power stations. Xiaomi operating system also interesting if you have a lot of their products which beats the ecosystem of Apple and Google. For example, if you buy a new Xiaomi TV, smartphone, or laptop and after logging you account-you could check the status and control of all Xiaomi products you own instantly without setup or configuration. For example, why not display your home security home camera in the car while you drive in a Xiaomi car without setup.
@@henryyiu618 What are you talking about, the refresh model 3 hasn't even stalks to indicate your direction. It doesn't have an instrument cluster, nor lidar. Even after 5 years on the market it has still MASSIVE quality issues (especially the American made ones).
I think you missed the feature that allows phone screen mirroring to the car’s display. This is a fully featured mirroring, not CarPlay or app casting etc
What people don't seem to understand is that European designers will design in alignment with their European cultural heritage. The same with Japanese designers and Chinese designers, everyone uses their culture as a foundation for their designs.
@@vgstb it is just out looking, europe has zero EV technology, car design is just like indoor design, it is all for good looking, it has nothing to do with technology, only china has , from battery to electric motor to software
Almost every car nowadays is a iteration of existing cars. Mostly because of regulations that require pedestrian safety and if the car shall have low drag coefficient.
@@Harrythehun all airplanes look the same too😁But no, for cars you have to look different and cooler than other cars or have the price twice cheaper or reputation as Mercedes, for example, then you can sell. If you have price only 2k cheaper then Tesla and the company name nobody knows how to spell, nobody will buy this car in the US!
@@Harrythehun Indeed, but I prefer this SU7 above an EQE for example. Both have record low drag coefficients, but the EQE looks like a bar of soap and the SU7 look like a sleek sport sedan.
What BS I studied car design, you Chinese are just lazy at design, and have no basis of reality nor originality- what an absolute cop out.@@Harrythehun
Like he said those pre production issues aren't gonna stop people from purchasing this. Xiaomi sold more than 20k units of SU7s in this month alone. They're on course to sell more than 120k units this year.
@@cwdjdsd-36321cstrue. The US has a lot to work on to make charging better and more convenient. These tariffs are only a temporary measure and legacy automakers have a limited amount of time before Chinese ev automakers enter the market. Either Ford, Stellantis, and GM get with the times or they go the way of the Dodo bird. The UAW is living on borrowed time.
@@sferris33The problem is that China's electric vehicle industry used to lag behind the American automotive industry, and Tesla is a representative of this. Previously, young people in China took pride in driving a Tesla. Just like when the iPhone 4 was first sold.
There are pin interfaces around the screen to provide data interaction and power supply. The interface is open to third parties, which means you can design, manufacture and program the device you want.
The physical button attachment is a fantastic idea, it probably means there’ll be more of those attachment points for other xiaomi products in the future, potentially eliminating all these overpriced options other car companies charge you
@@harmony3138 Porshe Macan has shorter declared range as its battery has smaller capacity and costs three times more than Xiaomi. And cold shorthens the range of any batteries, so there's no difference between the two.
Xiaomei have been producing quality electronics (and home appliances) for decades. They certainly have the engineering background, and already VERY substantial market presence. This might be their first venture into the automotive arena, so it will be a learning experience for them, one which they will certainly use to refine future cars. Predictions are that they are going to be a VERY major player in the Chinese EV landscape, certainly in the top 5, possibly THE major player in due course.
Ford CEO Jim Farley says he's been driving the Chinese tech giant Xiaomi's EV for the past six months. Farley described Xiaomi as an "industry juggernaut." Farley previously told a board member that China's auto industry was an "existential threat." Reading that article is how I found this car, WOW is all I can say. This is the first EV that I have seen that I would actually purchase.
Zeekr is arriving in Mexico next month and for one I just love the 001 ........but I wonder if the SU7 will arrive here as well maybe next year, by that time I wonder if the build quality and other issues will have been improved by then. I really like this car alot. The competition is getting tough in the EV market... and we´ll have to see what´s up with the Model Y refresh, is it coming soon or will it be a long wait for it´s arrival as well
Is Zeekr selling their whole lineup in Mexico? 001 is great, but it is also kind of big and expensive. Both the Zeekr X and the new Zeekr 007 are very compelling cars as well. In fact the 007 is considered a prime competitor against this SU7.
@@davidhein6044 Zeekr X is a really nice car. Essentially the sister car to the Volvo Ex30, but actually more luxurious and have some really innovative new features too, such as fold up rear seats, the sliding center screen, and a folding rear cargo cover. Really nice interior too. If they were both available I think I'd take the X over the EX30.
Good review as always. As a Chinese fan of your channel, I suggest you post the same English review to your Chinese social platform. Many Chinese are interested in how you conduct your reviews on UA-cam, and it would also be a good practice for them to learn English
Thanks for your support! We have previously posted our English videos on Chinese platforms like Bilibili, but they get very few views compared to my Chinese language videos. I understand that some people would really enjoy being able to see them, but having videos with very few views means the platform algorithm is less likely to push your videos in the future. For that reason, it hasn't been worth the extra time and effort that it would take to translate and subtitle the videos. Thank you for your understanding!
@@WheelsboyIt may take some more time for your programs to get fully recognized in Chinese platforms like Bilibili, yet it would be rewarding. Maybe a slightly edited version with a stronger voice - either positively or negatively.
Great looking car, with great specs, for a great price. Only negative to me is the integrated ecosystem. I work in tech, and the last thing I want is to give my information away. I know all cars these days gather data on you, but here it's not just driving data... Still, I'm hoping for a European version. Should come in under 40k€ for the base version if they want to compete with the Model 3. That should make things interesting!
I understand your thoughts, just like when the mobile phone first appeared, no one could collect any of your privacy before the phone. But now everyone can also accept mobile phones. So legislation is needed. If Xiaomi cars are sold locally, they must comply with local laws. For example, the information collection server is located locally. Or collected by local information service providers. Anyway, if Xiaomi phones and cars are sold locally, they definitely need to comply with local information collection laws.
It absolutely does not look like a Porsche. No ideea where that keeps coming from It's a beautiful design and Porsche has no vehicle that has the same front end or back end design.
@@bingbingmayea you're right. I've seen him wearing some unique pieces too (bullhead chronos and more). I think he's wearing a Marine Master in this vid
Thank you for noticing! That is indeed my Seiko SLA023 on a Strapcode jubilee bracelet. I'm a big watch enthusiast, and always try to mix up the pieces that I wear in each video.
This car looks amazing bad thing is having to wait for 6 months, but overall a car even better than the Porsche the cost will compensate the waiting time
Just need to address the fact that unlike other reviewers who misunderstood the size of the world (US=world), you completely understand that we have both metric and imperial system and clearly introduce the specs/facts for everyone to understand. Very good! Keep up the good work! However, it sure looks like Taycan. I have the Taycan Turismo Sport so at least the rear looks different :)
Nice vid as always mate. Just note that when you suggest you can organise Chinese car exporters, you have to keep in mind I'd say the majority of countries wouldn't allow you to import a vehicle from another country due to import regulations.
At present, it seems that Chinese cars are indeed excellent, but even Chinese people do not like the Xiaomi SU7, which is completely industrial waste. Apart from showing off wealth through purchases, it has no effect, and the Xiaomi Su7 has many problems
4 door coupe = Porsche. Right. Some media will just say anything to make Chinese product looks bad for the views. If anything, it looks more like an Ioniq 6. Yes yes that car also took some design from Porsche but it's not like Porsche copyrighted the design sheesh.
I DEFINITELY advise looking at all the reviews and issues that immediately started coming out. NO ONE creates a whole new FIRST vehicle out the gate that massively undercuts the competitors process and truly be quality. There's been all kinds of quality issues, ESPECIALLY around safety. You're gonna get what you pay for. The "smart services" are great.
@manwell235 Not suffering. Model Y is number 1 in the world. Y and 3 are number 1 in China. The minor things that people like to hype are normally for clicks and clout, unfortunately. The S and X initially had some with the screens, door handles, and gullwings because they were first attempts.
@@fgeiger41Tesla is no longer in the top 3 EV companies in china. Their sales declined more than 50% last month. The top selling model in china is BYD song which sold more than 65k units. The other top model is BYD Qin.Byd sold more than 300k units last month while Tesla sold 30k plus units in china.
@cwdjdsd-36321cs lmao. They're number 4. BIG SLIP, seeing as most are flooding the industry with cheap junk. Model Y and 3 are STILL the 2 best sellers in China!!!
Nice car, great price in china - wish we could access such ev cars with similar prices in Europe. As a family man I would prefer wagon or van currently.
NIO ET5 Touring is one of the most beautiful cars on the market today, and a proper wagon too! And the best electric vans are of course from China as well, with IMO the Xpeng X9 at the top. Neither one of those is cheap though, unfortunately. Although in China they've got some even cheaper wagons, such as the new Wuling Starlight, which starts at the equivalent of just $15k USD in the Chinese domestic market.
Thumbs up for both respecting the pronunciation of xiaomi, AND, As is nowadays rarely done on the internet, respecting the pronunciation of Porsche as well. I am extremely grateful.
I love the ending 😂 Anyway, I'm really impressed by all what the company did to this car. If this have to be the future - I'm in. Great review, as always, keep it up guys. 👍
Gotta say, as a (EU) Tesla fanboy, this thing looks amazing! Kudos to Xiaomi and RIP to legacy automotive...it's no longer about the car you sell once, it's about the tech, ecosystem, subscriptions etc.
This car is pretty controversial in China since the majority bunch of buyers are young people,they can't handle the big horse power well hence caused a lot of deadly accident and the rate has beyond the average level a lot.
The steering wheel (including the mode selector), seats and stalks all look pretty familiar for Taycan Owners. That being said, it looks like a compelling car for the price of the options on a reasonably well equipped Taycan.
That is until you drive it and you've driven a Taycan, and realize comparing it to the Taycan is dumb. Taycan is a MUCH better car in every way. A much, much, much better car. Words can't express how much. SU7 looks nice, but its qualities are surface deep, they don't have the know-how to compete with cars like Porsche on chassis development, handling, involvement, refinement, etc.
@ensteffo I find it hilarious how this car is absolutely dog shit in build quality compared to porsche and somehow has way more issues at launch than porsche ever did especially safety issues. Yet people like you are so easily influenced 😂 You seriously believe it's build quality is better LOL

在国内的订单已经超十万辆了，现在下单得年底或者明年才能提车，恐怕短时间都卖不到国外了
As for other Chinese electric cars, the price is usually twice of what it’s in China. And we might have import tariffs coming…

Sheesh, so you mean 100k chinese people will drive a porsche like car down on the streets? 🤔
Well you have no idea about ev pries here in Germany. Here is an example: Ora funky cat is sold in Germany. Its base model costs 26990 Euro and the same car sells in China for about 13600 Euro.
I've owned Xiaomi phones for many years and I could see myself purchasing this when/if it comes to Norway.

If you want to produce an electric car in China, you only need to build a factory at the mouth of the Yangtze River. They can buy all the accessories needed for electric cars nearby.
@@kevinz42 You're right... Apple's low calories to blame!! 🤣🤣🤣
China granted Tesla the right to set up a wholly owned factory in China and granted it preferential land and loan conditions, but the requirement was that almost 100% of the components must be produced in China, thus boosting China's electric vehicle industry.
Attachable and detachable controls for the car this is off the chain this is off the scale this is unbelievable
I would consider this over Tesla just over the fact that it has proper gauge cluster and not just an enormous iPad.
I just spend 8 hours with this car, the max version. It is pretty impressive. I hate cars but this.. this is certainly a car

I'm on the comfort and connectivity team ❤. I drive because I need to and not because I like it. After work I want to get into a car with pleasant temperature (I live in Brazil, it's hot here), with comfortable seats and a good sounds system to listen my fav playlist while I move at 10 km/h in traffic jam. The SU7 says to me: girl you can have much more than that 😂 It would be my dream car if it were a compact hatchback 😊
I think the vast majority of people who drive are just like you! They care about comfort, connectivity, and anything else that will make their commute safer and more pleasant.
PS. Thanks for being one of our first members! We genuinely appreciate the support!
Good thinking about the compact hatchback, I also think that a lack of a modern, not too expensive and reliable EV hatchback is a what most of the new EV car buyers want.

Alot of people compare this to Apple Car's scenario, and rightfully so.
There are multiple reasons why Xiaomi was able to make a car, in a shorter time, lower R&D cost than Apple did (and ultimately failed/given up).
Making EV's is in simple terms, like a Lego car. You pick what batteries you want, what autopilot system you'd like (Horizon Robotics? or Huawei? or others?), you pick what electric motors you want, or even licence existing platforms (if you didn't want to make one yourself). and Wallah, you've got an EV, with your design and your badge.
Xiaomi being in China was able to hand pick these items like walking into a supermarket. Any battery size, and electric motors, and materials and software packages.
Apple on the other hand couldn't. There was no supply chain, there were no options. The EV suppliers for the better part of last 10 years, and even today, is miniscule. Parts are on shortage, technology is old, then add on there US sanctions and requirements for Federal Tax Credit (including Union bullsh1t, and "Made in USA" requirements), then you've got a super restrictive R&D environment, and ultimately, Apple gave up on it.
Elon said himself, the Cybertruck delays was heavily due to lack of suppliers and technology available to them. Supplier's didn't want to invest in R&D to make suitable offerings for the Cybertruck. So Tesla has to navigate this themselves, and takes hell of a lot longer than off the shelf industry supply chain.
This is the perfect example of "How protectionist taxes, tariffs and trade barriers, will end up being the demise of your industry"
The more you try and protect an industry from natural selection, the more you pave the way for it to fall.
Beautifully explained
Even Tesla goes to China to pick up its batteries from BYD. China is simply a decade ahead of the rest of the world.
wheelsboy deserves more subs. this channel is the "pandora box"of chinesse cars...in a great way of course. thanks for the uplaod.
I live in China for 14 years... Still driving my lil Mazda 2 but my next car will be a Chinese EV, maybe this one? Have a Xiaomi phone, laptop etc etc. 😎
If I may ask, what is your country of origin?
Now you are Chinese. Chinese is a culture. No matter what country you are from

If anything, it is less bulbous and better proportioned than the Taycan. I thought the SU7 looked more inspired by McLaren, all be it more practical and much better priced. Otherwise a stunning first car, setting very high expectations for what is next.
Personally I use a Xiaomi cordless air compressor that is incredibly useful for our bikes and car, it even looks good - others said they don't last long, but ours is 7 years old.
I have the XIAOMI competitor of the Gopro, and after 7 years it operates still flawless.
People make all sorts of excuses for Chinese products. It goes from the government, to politics,to cheap products, to human rights, and so on. Not only do these individuals normally buy the cheapest of these products and then wonder why they break, they usually have the incentive to go and tell everyone their products aren't very good.
Umm wrong if you compare them by overlaying both cars... The outline is nearly identical. You need new glasses
@@vueport99 The front of the Taycan is trying too much to look like an electric 911- something Porsche seems doomed to repeat - hence the bulbous nose. Whereas I don't see that on the front of the SU7. But each to their own. Enjoy your Taycan!

@@ida529200 That is actually right on the nose. US FMVSS safety standards differ (not necessarily better or worse, just different) from the NCAP safety standards the rest of the world uses. And what is the one country whose CMVSS safety standards essentially mirror the US standards? Canada of course. The upshot to this is that only cars designed to sell in the US market will end up selling in Canada. No car company is going to all the expense of making their car meet these regulation just to sell in Canada alone. Mexico is a whole different story, since they use NCAP standards so a car designed to sell in China or Europe can be modified to meet Mexican standards fairly easily. But now that the US have quadrupled its tariffs on Chinese cars all the way to 100%, Xiaomi or any other Chinese EV maker will be steering clear of the US market, and by extension, the Canadian market as well.

Mind boggling!🤯 This makes the Tesla Model 3 a dinosaur, I know it is ageing but it's definitely so behind including the Refresh version. I also now get why Xiaomi started with a sedan instead of crossover SUV with more demand, they actually don't want too much demand for now as they learn the early manufacturing/design issues. At this rate, Xiaomi should make their own EV batteries and home energy storage batteries/power stations.
Xiaomi operating system also interesting if you have a lot of their products which beats the ecosystem of Apple and Google. For example, if you buy a new Xiaomi TV, smartphone, or laptop and after logging you account-you could check the status and control of all Xiaomi products you own instantly without setup or configuration. For example, why not display your home security home camera in the car while you drive in a Xiaomi car without setup.

There are pin interfaces around the screen to provide data interaction and power supply. The interface is open to third parties, which means you can design, manufacture and program the device you want.

This might be their first venture into the automotive arena, so it will be a learning experience for them, one which they will certainly use to refine future cars.

Is Zeekr selling their whole lineup in Mexico? 001 is great, but it is also kind of big and expensive. Both the Zeekr X and the new Zeekr 007 are very compelling cars as well. In fact the 007 is considered a prime competitor against this SU7.

Good review as always. As a Chinese fan of your channel, I suggest you post the same English review to your Chinese social platform. Many Chinese are interested in how you conduct your reviews on UA-cam, and it would also be a good practice for them to learn English
Thanks for your support! We have previously posted our English videos on Chinese platforms like Bilibili, but they get very few views compared to my Chinese language videos. I understand that some people would really enjoy being able to see them, but having videos with very few views means the platform algorithm is less likely to push your videos in the future. For that reason, it hasn't been worth the extra time and effort that it would take to translate and subtitle the videos. Thank you for your understanding!
@@WheelsboyIt may take some more time for your programs to get fully recognized in Chinese platforms like Bilibili, yet it would be rewarding. Maybe a slightly edited version with a stronger voice - either positively or negatively.
Great looking car, with great specs, for a great price. Only negative to me is the integrated ecosystem. I work in tech, and the last thing I want is to give my information away. I know all cars these days gather data on you, but here it's not just driving data...
Still, I'm hoping for a European version. Should come in under 40k€ for the base version if they want to compete with the Model 3. That should make things interesting!
Even If Xiaomi is collecting data they don't care about you or anyone else. The data is realistically collected only for marketing purposes.
I understand your thoughts, just like when the mobile phone first appeared, no one could collect any of your privacy before the phone. But now everyone can also accept mobile phones. So legislation is needed. If Xiaomi cars are sold locally, they must comply with local laws. For example, the information collection server is located locally. Or collected by local information service providers. Anyway, if Xiaomi phones and cars are sold locally, they definitely need to comply with local information collection laws.
Good to get first hand info from people on the ground. Have been undermining chinese evs but it seems are doing great work

NIO ET5 Touring is one of the most beautiful cars on the market today, and a proper wagon too! And the best electric vans are of course from China as well, with IMO the Xpeng X9 at the top. Neither one of those is cheap though, unfortunately. Although in China they've got some even cheaper wagons, such as the new Wuling Starlight, which starts at the equivalent of just $15k USD in the Chinese domestic market.

For a first car, this is extremely well done...its has so many options wow
China is democratizing quality car ownership for the common man!!🙄😳
Gotta say, as a (EU) Tesla fanboy, this thing looks amazing! Kudos to Xiaomi and RIP to legacy automotive...it's no longer about the car you sell once, it's about the tech, ecosystem, subscriptions etc.
Absolutely great video man. Pretty cool car!! I really wish these would come too America/Canada. I know BYD is planning to come to Canada next year.
Great looking car. Would love to see how it compares to popular brands beyond specs on paper.
So, not only fans?
I'm not that desperate...yet.
I too was disappointed.
@@WheelsboyDamn we’re thirsty…😂
Well this escalated quickly 😂
Never buy a car in its first year of production.
FYI : "Xiao Mi" means "small rice" or "little rice".
Yes if you translate word for word but putting the 2 words together it is actually Millet, the Chinese calls it "little rice"
love the accessories you can add to the screen and the red button on the steering wheel.
This car is pretty controversial in China since the majority bunch of buyers are young people,they can't handle the big horse power well hence caused a lot of deadly accident and the rate has beyond the average level a lot.
是的，又一辆小米汽车在高速上撞上了护栏追尾卡车，紧接着又遭到两辆后车撞击，这位倒霉的驾驶员下来拍视频把事故车发到了社交媒体炫耀。还有小米撞上三棵树的交通事故，小米的牛逼之处在于事故0死亡
With the price-tag the Porsche asked for their cars especially Taycan, they could at least gives this level of in-car infotainment system like in SU7.
I NEED those refrigerators!! 😍😍😍
The steering wheel (including the mode selector), seats and stalks all look pretty familiar for Taycan Owners. That being said, it looks like a compelling car for the price of the options on a reasonably well equipped Taycan.
That is until you drive it and you've driven a Taycan, and realize comparing it to the Taycan is dumb. Taycan is a MUCH better car in every way. A much, much, much better car. Words can't express how much. SU7 looks nice, but its qualities are surface deep, they don't have the know-how to compete with cars like Porsche on chassis development, handling, involvement, refinement, etc.
Steering wheel is for sure similar, probably why I like it so much.
@@derbigpr500 You just sound like a porch fan boy expressing your preconceived ideas, not actual hands on experience.
@ensteffo I find it hilarious how this car is absolutely dog shit in build quality compared to porsche and somehow has way more issues at launch than porsche ever did especially safety issues. Yet people like you are so easily influenced 😂 You seriously believe it's build quality is better LOL
I am big cars fan, watch reviews A LOT and I must say your videos provide the best information a and give the best idea about the car. Great job!
