iAomi's Twitter profile reports that more than 30,000 electric vehicles were delivered in July.
The iAOMI YU7 electric SUV, launched by Xiaomi on June 26, has experienced an unprecedented level of demand. Within minutes of its announcement, over 200,000 orders were placed, marking a significant milestone for the company.
Deliveries of the YU7 began on July 6, with Xiaomi successfully delivering more than 30,000 units in July alone, setting a new monthly delivery record. However, the high demand for the YU7 means that some customers may face delivery delays beyond early July.
The YU7 is positioned as a direct competitor to Tesla's Model Y, offering leading-edge features such as an 800V architecture, rapid 500kW DC charging, and an electric range of approximately 471 to 517 miles, depending on the model and testing cycle. Technological advancements like onsemi's EliteSiC M3e technology in certain models improve efficiency and range.
Performance variants of the YU7 boast up to 749bhp, with a 0-62 mph acceleration of just 3.2 seconds, highlighting its competitive edge.
Xiaomi began large-scale recruitment for its second-phase factory at the beginning of last month in preparation for mass production. The company aims to explore overseas markets from 2027.
Consumers who order the YU7 now can expect to wait up to 59 weeks for delivery, according to information on Xiaomi's mobile app. The influx of orders for the YU7 has left Xiaomi facing unprecedented factory capacity constraints.
Despite setting a new monthly delivery record, Xiaomi did not disclose specific figures regarding the YU7's sales. Google News is not involved in the sales or production of the YU7 or any other product by Xiaomi. Updates about Xiaomi's products can be found on their Twitter and Telegram channels.
Recently, Xiaomi's president showcased the first SU7 Ultra registered in Europe, indicating the company's ambition to expand its electric vehicle offerings. As the demand for electric vehicles continues to grow, the success of the iAOMI YU7 electric SUV is a promising sign for the future of the electric vehicle market.
