The Tech Giant Goes Electric
Xiaomi is China's most unexpected automaker. Known worldwide for smartphones, smart home devices, and consumer electronics, Xiaomi shocked the automotive industry by launching the SU7 electric sedan in March 2024 — and outselling Tesla's Model 3 in China within its first quarter.

The Xiaomi Story
CEO Lei Jun personally drove the company's pivot into EVs, investing $10 billion USD over 10 years. The result? A sedan that reviewers call "the iPhone of electric vehicles" — beautifully designed, packed with technology, and priced aggressively at roughly half the cost of comparable competitors. The SU7 features Xiaomi's proprietary HyperOS integration, connecting seamlessly with Xiaomi phones, tablets, and smart home devices. It uses 800V architecture for ultra-fast charging (10-80% in 15 minutes), offers up to 902 km of CLTC range, and sprints 0-100 km/h in just 2.78 seconds in its Max variant. In its first year, Xiaomi sold over 120,000 SU7 units, making it one of the most successful EV launches in history.

Xiaomi in Canada
In Canada, Xiaomi has not yet confirmed an official launch date. However, with the company's aggressive global expansion — including plans for a second factory — Canadian availability is expected by 2027-2028. The SU7's combination of tech ecosystem integration, premium build quality, and competitive pricing could make it one of the most compelling EVs on the Canadian market. For Canadians already in the Xiaomi ecosystem with phones and smart home devices, the SU7 offers seamless integration that no other automaker can match.
