The $ 35,000 YU7 has top specs for low money: 0-62 mph in 5.88 seconds and 800-volt electric architecture.

There are three models, ranging from a single-motor car with 235 kW and a more potent, dual-motors.

Xiaomi already has delivered more than 250,000 examples of its SU7 saloon since an almost equal number of pre-orders arrived in 2013 .

The world’s third -largest smartphone company only started making cars 18 months ago .

Xiaomi plans to open 10,000 of its Mi Home stores in foreign markets over the next five years .

The YU7 Max has 508 kW power, more than the electric Porsche Macan Turbo , and a super-like 0-62 mph time .

CarPlay is here too, but instead of taking over the entire display, it can be pinned as a desktop widget.

Xiaomi ’s driver-assistance tech looks impressive on paper, too, with lidar, an Nvidia Drive AGX Thor chip with 700 TOPS (trillion operations per second ) computing power.
