Recently, more pictures and information have emerged about the forthcoming Xiaomi SUV codenamed MX11. Perhaps most importantly, we’re getting more detailed information about the interior. A previous spy shot indicated that the center console would be different from that of the SU7, and the new information suggests that the interior of the SUV will be considerably different.
In an after-dark shot of a test car, part of the interior can be seen through an open window. Interestingly, it appears that there is a long, thin screen that runs the length of the dashboard. Patent information indicates that this is referred to as the ‘first display’ and is meant to facilitate the driver’s viewing of vehicle information and improve driving safety. It is not clear whether this will work in conjunction with a larger infotainment screen or whether it will replace it.
Furthermore, some annotated photographs of what’s believed to be the SUV’s door panels have been exposed on the Internet. They are in two different colors, bone snail purple and red-orange. From these, we can see that the doors are opened using a push button on the door handle and that there is a mechanical backup in the storage compartment.
From a nighttime shot of the car charging, it appears that the new Xiaomi will have either a halo or semi-halo light pattern at the rear. The Xiaomi SUV is quite low-lying and has a long front end. In terms of design, it should be at least somewhat similar to the Xiaomi SU7.
There are likely to be both single-motor and dual-motor versions of the SUV, and it is highly likely that the motor setup will be identical to that of the SU7. That means that for single motor versions, there will be a 220 kW electric motor with a peak torque of 400 Nm on the rear axle. With the dual-motor version, there is a 220 KW electric motor with 338 Nm on the front axle and a 275 KW electric motor on the rear axle with 500 Nm of torque.
There are three battery packs available for the SU7: 73.6 kWh, 94.3 kWh, and 101 kWh, respectively. It is possible that the same battery packs will be used in the SUV. The two smaller packs are lithium iron phosphate units, whereas the largest one uses NCM battery chemistry.
It’s currently expected that the Xiaomi SUV will launch in the first quarter of 2025 and may very closely follow the launch pattern of the SU7.

In full smartphone fashion, the way they prime the media by this stream of controlled leaking is hilarious.
In China cars are not purchased by rational factors. You can see that by the approach of “sales” people in showrooms. Or by their ridiculous “L” size models. So the less you think, the better. You can be brain wash people into anything.
You spend so so much time on this chinese car website and you said you’re european living in china and you have a chinese wife and you want to purchase a car over there. Intereresting.
