A recent regulatory filing has disclosed key specifications for Xiaomi’s upcoming electric SUV, the YU7, ahead of its expected launch in mid-2025. The Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has listed two variants of the YU7—XMA6500LBEVA1 and XMA6500LBEVR3—both classified as battery electric vehicles (BEVs).

The XMA6500LBEVA1 is a dual-motor model equipped with a 101.7 kWh battery pack, offering CLTC range options of 670 km, 750 km, and 760 km. It utilizes lithium-ion ternary batteries from CATL, which generally provide higher energy density but result in greater energy consumption due to the dual-motor configuration. The single-motor XMA6500LBEVR3 features a 96.3 kWh battery pack with range options of 725 km, 810 km, and 820 km. This variant is powered by lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries from BYD’s FinDreams Battery.

Xiaomi introduced its first electric vehicle, the SU7 sedan, in March 2024, and it has since seen strong market demand, with over 100,000 units delivered by November. The YU7 SUV is expected to enter the Chinese market by June or July 2025, coinciding with the expansion of Xiaomi’s manufacturing facility in Beijing’s Yizhuang district.

The company aims to position the YU7 competitively in the mid-to-high-end electric SUV segment, with pricing anticipated to range between RMB 250,000 and 350,000 ($34,000 to $48,000).
