Xiaomi CEO Says Demand For Its SU7 Has Been Much Higher Than Expected

The tech giant received 50,000 orders for the electric sedan within 27 minutes. Customer deliveries of the Founder's Edition started late last month. Xiaomi will start to hand over flagship SU7 Max models to owners this month. The chief executive of Xiaomi has admitted that there is much higher demand for the all-electric SU7 than they anticipated. While Xiaomi is new to the car business, it is a technology giant in China and one of the world’s largest smartphone manufacturers.

The firm has previously claimed to have received 50,000 orders within 27 minutes and started deliveries in late March. The first 5,000 units delivered were ‘Founder’s Edition’ models. Deliveries of the standard model started this week in Beijing and Shenzhen. During the livestream, Lei said Xiaomi had been able to bring forward deliveries of the standard SU7 by 12 days. He added that the car’s software will also be updated over-the-air at least once a month.
