Chinese tech giant Xiaomi, known primarily for its leadership in smartphones and consumer electronics, continues its bold expansion into the electric vehicle sector. As the official launch of its new YU7 SUV approaches, Xiaomi has unveiled the interior details of this model, reaffirming its ambition to compete with leading electric car manufacturers, including Tesla.
Driver-Centric Interior with Panoramic HyperVision Display
The most striking feature of the Xiaomi YU7’s interior is its advanced panoramic head-up display system called "HyperVision." Unlike traditional physical screens, this technology projects information across the lower portion of the windshield, offering an immersive driving experience and enhanced safety for the driver.
This display allows the driver to monitor essential driving information such as speed, energy consumption, navigation, and alerts from advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) without diverting their gaze from the road. Positioned relatively far from the driver’s eyes, the information appears clearer and less distracting, reducing the risk of accidents caused by driver inattention.
By adopting HyperVision, Xiaomi has eliminated the conventional instrument cluster, giving the cabin a modern and minimalist feel with smooth surfaces and clean design lines focused on driver comfort and visibility.
Design Details and Practical Comfort
The YU7 features a sporty three-spoke steering wheel with a flat bottom, inspired by Xiaomi’s SU7 Ultra sedan. The gear selector is relocated to the steering column, freeing up space in the center console, which boasts a simple design and includes two wireless charging pads for smartphones, reflecting Xiaomi’s commitment to practical solutions for modern users.
The seats provide high comfort with electric adjustment options and are upholstered in premium materials with design touches inspired by the latest industry trends, offering passengers a sense of luxury and spaciousness.
Nature-Inspired Colors: Eye-Catching Emerald Green
Xiaomi has revealed six official images of the car in an “Emerald Green” color, inspired by the famous Colombian emerald known for its pure and deep hues. This distinctive effect is achieved through a dual-layer painting process, giving the car a color-shifting appearance depending on the light angle, blending industrial beauty with natural elegance.
This color stands apart from previous Xiaomi car colors like the “Olive Green” on the SU7 sedan or “Parrot Green” on the SU7 Ultra, giving the YU7 a unique visual identity within Xiaomi’s electric vehicle lineup.
Large Dimensions and Powerful Electric Performance
The YU7 is a large electric crossover SUV, measuring 4,999 mm in length, 1,996 mm in width, and 1,608 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,000 mm. These dimensions provide excellent interior spaciousness and ample cargo capacity, making it suitable for families.
Mechanically, the vehicle is available in two powertrain options:
A base version with a single rear electric motor producing 235 kW (315 hp),
And a high-performance all-wheel-drive version with dual electric motors delivering a combined 508 kW (681 hp), capable of reaching a top speed of 253 km/h.
The YU7 offers two battery options: 96.3 kWh and 101.7 kWh, achieving an impressive driving range of up to 820 km according to the CLTC standard, placing it among the longest-range electric vehicles in its class.
Launch Date and Market Competition
The official unveiling of the Xiaomi YU7 is scheduled for May 22, with expectations that the SUV will compete directly with models like the Tesla Model Y and other premium high-performance electric vehicles. As Xiaomi’s first electric crossover, the YU7 represents a strategic step to strengthen the company’s presence in the smart automotive market.
With the YU7, Xiaomi demonstrates that it is not merely transferring smartphone technology into cars but aims to deliver a fully integrated driving experience combining technological innovation, modern design, and powerful performance. Featuring the unique HyperVision display, nature-inspired colors, and exceptional driving range, the YU7 is poised to redefine luxury and technology standards in the Chinese electric vehicle market.
