- The new-generation SU7 delivered 26,826 units in its first full month of deliveries.
- The YU7 SUV contributed 9,876 deliveries in April, down 27.16% from March.
Xiaomi EV delivered 36,702 cars in April, with the SU7 electric sedan contributing more than 70%, according to data released Monday by the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA).
The monthly deliveries jumped 28.40% from 28,585 vehicles a year earlier and surged 71.18% from 21,440 units in March, marking a recovery in sales momentum after first-quarter fluctuations.
The EV unit of Xiaomi (HKEX: 1810) said earlier this month that it delivered over 30,000 cars in March, without disclosing the exact figure.
The sales rebound was primarily driven by mass deliveries of the new-generation SU7 sedan.
The new-generation SU7 was officially launched on March 19, with initial deliveries beginning on March 23. April marked the first full month of deliveries for the model.
The SU7 contributed 26,826 deliveries in April, an increase of 240.35% from 7,882 cars in March, accounting for 73.09% of the sales share.
The YU7 SUV (sport utility vehicle) contributed 9,876 deliveries in April, down 27.16% from 13,558 cars in March, representing 26.91% of the sales share.
As of May 6, the new-generation SU7 had garnered over 80,000 firm orders within just 48 days of its launch, Xiaomi EV said last week.
The surge in orders was partly driven by the impending end of initial launch benefits on May 5, which prompted potential customers to lock in their orders before the incentive package, valued at up to 69,000 yuan ($10,150), expired.
In March, the SU7 accounted for 36.76% of the sales share, while the YU7 made up 63.24%.
Xiaomi also plans to launch the YU7 GT, a high-performance pure electric SUV, at the end of May. The model boasts a maximum power output of 738 kW (990 hp) and a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour.
The YU7 GT is expected to be priced between 450,000 yuan and 500,000 yuan, which will further strengthen Xiaomi's position in the premium EV market.
Xiaomi has set its full-year delivery target for 2026 at 550,000 units, meaning its sales will need to grow by around 34% from the 411,837 units delivered in 2025.
In the January-April period, Xiaomi EV delivered 117,558 cars, up 12.55% year-on-year.
The company's ambitions extend beyond the Chinese market; it plans to officially enter overseas markets in the second half of 2027, with Europe as its first overseas destination.
