PU7 comes in the aftermath of the SU7, which has achieved great success for Xiaomi since the delivery operations began in March 2024. The company said it sold more than 200,000 SU7S as of April 2025, bypassing EV global sales to Ford and General Motors.

But more importantly, the PU7 is placed as a direct competitor to the Tesla Y model, which is the best sales of Elon Musk. Xiaomi was very clear about its intention to evacuate the y in China.

PU7 has a lot for it, including its elegant appearance and sports cars. The car is comparable to the y in size and acceleration, but it destroys Musk cars in terms of range. In its presentation, Lei Jun said that the range is the first consideration of Ev buyers, which prompted Xiaomi to develop SUVs that will be a leader in the chapter.

On its website, the standard Xiaomi PU7 is described with a single barrier as “the tallest pure electrical SUV with a battery below 100 kW and the best performance in the category of pure electrical SUVs from mid to mid, which really achieves the domain driving.”

Of course, whether the PU7 will truly chase the y from its body will depend on its price – and we will not get these details even closer to July 2025.
