Xiaomi said on Thursday it will recall 116,887 units of its SU7 Standard Edition electric vehicles in China due to potential safety risks linked to the cars’ L2 highway autopilot assistance feature. The recall was filed with the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR).
The affected vehicles were produced between Feb. 6, 2024, and Aug. 30, 2025. Regulators said that under certain conditions, the autopilot system may fail to adequately identify, warn of, or respond to unusual road scenarios, which could raise the risk of collisions if drivers do not intervene in time.
The recall involves two filings: number S2025M0149I, covering 98,462 vehicles registered under the XMA7000MBEVR2 model, and number S2025M0150I, affecting 18,425 units of the BJ7000MBEVR2 model.
Launched on March 28, 2024, the SU7 comes in three variants — Standard, Pro and Max — with the Standard serving as the entry-level option. The company also introduced the YU7 electric SUV in June, which delivered 24,824 units by the end of August, including 16,548 in August alone.
Xiaomi EVs have faced scrutiny after a fatal accident in late March. On March 29, a Standard Edition SU7 caught fire after colliding with a highway guardrail, killing three people. Xiaomi said at the time the assisted driving system had been activated but disengaged one second before the crash, and that the road section was under repair.
Xiaomi said the recall will be addressed through over-the-air software updates at no cost to customers. Owners will be notified via text message and the company’s mobile application.
