Is Lei Jun impressive? Absolutely impressive. Is Xiaomi’s car impressive? Absolutely impressive! But can you buy the Xiaomi SU7 now? Let me tell you, don’t rush! Have you driven it? A car is not like a smartphone. How can you hand over your money without driving it first? We can make an impulsive purchase for a digital product, but impulsively buying a car worth two to three hundred thousand, brothers, is that rational? Clearly not rational! In my view, the target audience for the Xiaomi SU7 is very clear: young people living in first, second, or third-tier cities with disposable income. Spending two to three hundred thousand on a car does not impact their quality of life.
The Xiaomi SU7 is not suitable for the majority. I always advocate for rationality and seeing the car's shortcomings. Many people have paid without knowing the car’s flaws. Firstly, both the standard and Pro versions are 400V, only the max version is 800V. HUD and electric suction doors are only available in the max version. None of the versions have seat massage, there is no lifetime warranty on the battery and motor, and the entire vehicle warranty is only 5 years or 100.000 kilometers! The car's data flow is free for one year, which is quite unsatisfying for a smart product!
A car is a mass consumer product; we need to see its drawbacks, not just its advantages. Also, many people are comparing the Xiaomi SU7 with other brands like Zeekr and Avatr. Brothers, I’m not saying anything else, but have you forgotten about BYD? Has anyone compared the low-end version of Xiaomi SU7 with BYD? Look, the entry-level Han is now a thousand cheaper than the entry-level Xiaomi SU7 after discounts, but the configuration is much higher.
To be honest, if a family is considering Xiaomi’s car, as a consumer spending money, Xiaomi’s car would only be the second car in my household! Of course, this is for us ordinary people. For the rich second generation, the Xiaomi SU7 is indeed a good choice! So here’s the question: at the same price, would you choose Zeekr, Avatr, BYD Han, or Xiaomi SU7?
