The new Xiaomi SU7 has already received tens of thousands of locked-in orders

Xiaomi refreshed its first EV model, the SU7, back in March, and the initial interest in the car was very high, with 15,000 orders recorded in the first 34 minutes of availability.

Now, a few weeks later, that number has jumped to over 40,000, but these are locked-in orders. This was revealed by Xiaomi founder and CEO Lei Jun.

He added that Xiaomi delivered over 20,000 cars in March, of which over 7,000 were of the new SU7, which started shipping on March 23, only four days after the official unveiling. Lei Jun says the delivery speed of the new SU7 set a record. Xiaomi's target for deliveries over the entire year is a very ambitious 550,000. It delivered 139,741 cars in 2024 and 411,837 in 2025.

The refreshed SU7 is marginally more expensive than the original model, but comes with more power, more range, and LiDAR on all versions.
