Xiaomi Motors will hold its first press conference on December 28. Although this conference will focus on technology, the first model is also expected to be officially unveiled.From the information released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, everyone already knows that Xiaomi’s first model is named Xiaomi Automobile SU7.This also made netizens very confused about the naming. Lei Jun himself just answered this question.
He said: SU, the abbreviation of Speed Ultra (super speed). High performance is Xiaomi’s DNA. Tesla says it won’t build slow cars, and we do the same.
Lei Jun also emphasized that the performance of SU7 is very good and everyone can look forward to it.
As for how to pronounce it, Xiaomi also had a serious internal discussion. In the end, everyone felt that it was better to call it "Su Qi", which is more cordial, just like calling a friend by his name.
Lei Jun said that the first car represents Xiaomi’s car-making philosophy: technology x ecology, advanced mobile smart space.
Therefore, Xiaomi SU7 is positioned as a "C-class high-performance ecological technology car".
As for why he chose a sedan as his first car, Lei Jun will explain in detail at the press conference.
