The new-generation SU7 has a starting price of 219,900 yuan, with pre-sale prices spanning from 229,900 yuan to 309,900 yuan. Features such as LiDAR and 700 TOPS computing power, previously reserved for high-end trims, are now standard on all models. In terms of communication and electronic architecture, the new vehicle incorporates dual 5G dual SIM dual active, Wi-Fi 7, UWB near-field vehicle control, IoT communication interfaces, and a built-in ETC system, marking a comprehensive upgrade of its electronic and electrical architecture. Xiaomi Auto stated that this combination of features is designed to provide users with a more stable vehicle connectivity experience. For exterior styling, the new SU7 offers 9 exterior colors across 4 main color schemes, maintaining classic proportions and the family design language, while the new grille presents a cleaner, more sporty visual style. Regarding the powertrain, the new SU7 is equipped across the board with the V6s Plus super electric motor. The Max variant accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.08 seconds, with a top speed of 265 km/h. Under the CLTC standard, the Standard variant offers a range of 720 km, the Pro variant reaches 902 km, and the Max variant achieves 835 km, with all three models emphasizing long-range capabilities. For charging performance, the entire series uses a silicon carbide high-voltage platform. The Max variant supports a maximum charging rate of 5.2C, allowing for a charge from 10% to 80% in as little as 12 minutes, giving it strong competitiveness in charging efficiency.

Chassis Technology: Debut of the 'Jiaolong Chassis' with Deep Hardware-Software Integration

Xiaomi introduced the "Jiaolong Chassis" for the first time at this event, positioning it as a high-performance intelligent chassis system that deeply integrates software algorithms with hardware architecture. In terms of hardware configuration, the new SU7 comes standard with a front double-wishbone and rear five-link independent suspension, paired with 265mm wide rear tires and front four-piston fixed brake calipers. The Pro and Max variants offer an optional closed dual-chamber air spring and CDC continuously damping control shock absorbers, enabling adjustable suspension height and adaptive stiffness/softness. Official braking test data released by Xiaomi Auto shows that the new SU7 Max can perform 40 consecutive 100-0 km/h braking tests without fade. The standard Ultra brake pedal tuning is also a key focus of this upgrade.

Xiaomi Notebook Pro 14 Launched, First-Sale Price Starts at 7,999 yuan, Marking Return to High-End Ultraportable Segment After Four Years

Xiaomi also launched the Notebook Pro 14, targeting the premium ultraportable laptop market with its ultra-thin body and Intel's latest flagship processor. The product has a listed price of 8,499 yuan, but during the first-sale period, a 500-yuan discount brings the price down to 7,999 yuan. Combined with national subsidies, the final price can be as low as 6,799.15 yuan. Sales will commence at 10:00 AM on March 21. Xiaomi positions this as a "return after four years," re-entering the high-end notebook category it had previously stepped back from. The Xiaomi Notebook Pro 14 is equipped with the third-generation Intel Core Ultra X7 358H processor, based on the Panther Lake architecture and manufactured using the Intel 18A process, representing Intel's current flagship mobile platform. For thermal management, the device incorporates a large 10,000 mm² VC vapor chamber, combined with a dual-fan, triple-airflow design, allowing for sustained performance release of up to 50W. This cooling specification is relatively uncommon in ultraportable laptops weighing around 1kg and is a core selling point for Xiaomi's differentiated competition. The entire unit weighs just 1.08kg and is 14.95mm thick. The body uses a one-piece cast magnesium alloy frame (reducing weight by 30% compared to traditional methods), a high-strength carbon fiber bottom cover, a titanium alloy keyboard support plate, and heat dissipation fins made from graphene-aluminum alloy. The surface features a velvety texture treatment with anti-fingerprint properties. Color options include Soft Mist Blue, Elegant Gray, Milk Frost White, and a new Soft Glow Pink.

Xiaomi Watch S5 Released: Deep Integration with Car Ecosystem as Core Selling Point, Starting at 1,199 yuan

Xiaomi introduced the Watch S5 smartwatch, emphasizing deep integration with Xiaomi cars as its core differentiating feature, further strengthening its cross-hardware ecosystem synergy strategy. The Watch S5 has a starting price of 1,199 yuan, with a 100-yuan discount available during the first-sale period. Five configurations are offered, with the highest priced at 1,399 yuan. The new watch is positioned as an "all-round sports watch with long battery life," featuring a 316L stainless steel case and a 1.48-inch AMOLED screen. A key highlight of the release is its car scenario integration capabilities: the watch can provide strong vibration alerts upon detecting driver fatigue or speeding, and sends reminders for critical navigation points like traffic lights and highway on-ramps to prevent missing them. This functionality currently supports the new SU7 and YU7 models. Beyond car integration, the Watch S5 also features iterations in health monitoring. A new Sleep Algorithm 2.0 improves the accuracy of detecting sleep onset and wake times by 11%. The cycling mode adds a bike computer display and supports connection to third-party Bluetooth power meters, offering more professional data collection for cycling enthusiasts. The watch also adds a new feature to interact with Xiaomi smart door locks, allowing users to directly view the door lock camera feed from their wrist, further extending its role as a control hub in smart home scenarios.
