The first work of Xiaomi Auto, the Xiaomi SU7, was also "pre-released", and details such as design, performance, battery life, and safety were publicly unveiled for the first time. It is positioned as a "C-class high-performance ecological technology car" to achieve the ultimate performance of high performance, ecological technology and intelligent space experience, and to create the first choice of the elite of the era and the top benchmark of technology and humanities.

"Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now we are moving forward from scratch." Lei Jun, founder, chairperson and CEO of Xiaomi Group, said that Xiaomi Auto is a major leap for Xiaomi Group from the mobile phone industry to the automotive industry, and it is also a key leap in the complete closed-loop of "people, cars and the whole ecosystem".

Lei Jun also said that the automobile industry has been more than 100 years, and there is no shortcut to the 100-year track. "Xiaomi decided to invest ten times, start from the bottom core technology, seriously build a good car, and through 15 to 20 years of efforts, become the world’s top five automakers, and strive for the full rise of China’s automobile industry!"

Key track in-depth self-research, a number of global technology firsts, redefining the automotive industry technology stack

The development trend of intelligent electric vehicles is the integration of the automobile industry with the consumer electronics industry and intelligent ecology, and the integration of full-stack technology in the automobile industry is the only way for the evolution of the automobile industry in the new century. Lei Jun said that by integrating industrial hard technology, intelligent soft technology, and AI, Xiaomi Automobile will comprehensively redefine the technology stack of the automobile industry, which will be a major leap in the field of automobile industry technology.

To this end, Xiaomi Automobile has insisted on starting from the bottom core technology from the beginning, insisting on positive research and development, and in-depth self-research on key tracks, "ten times investment, seriously build a good car". At present, Xiaomi Automobile’s first R & D investment exceeds 10 billion yuan, and the R & D team has more than 3,400 engineers, including thousands of top domestic and foreign technical experts in key fields.

The press conference officially disclosed the progress of the five core technologies of millet automobile breakthrough, in the key areas of electric drive, battery, large die casting, intelligent driving, intelligent cockpit and so on, millet self-developed technology implementation of many global first, China first, can be called millet 13 years of technology accumulation of the master show.

Among them, in the field of industrial hard technology, Xiaomi has shown strong self-developed and manufactured hard-core technology strength, and has the leading intelligent manufacturing strength of the complete automobile industry. For example, Xiaomi’s self-developed and produced super motor HyperEngine V8s, with a speed of 27200rpm, the world’s first mass-produced motor speed, refreshing the global motor speed ceiling, and the pre-researched next-generation Xiaomi super motor, innovative laser winding rotor technology, successfully broke through 35000rpm in the laboratory; Xiaomi self-developed CTB integrated battery technology, and the world’s first battery inversion technology, achieving the current CTB battery world’s highest 77.8% battery integration efficiency. In order to ensure battery performance and quality from the source, Xiaomi even built its own battery pack factory.

In addition, Xiaomi has self-developed the "9100t super large die-casting cluster" and the self-developed die-casting alloy material "Titan Alloy", becoming the only car manufacturer in the world and the only one in China to self-develop large die-casting and die-casting materials at the same time. At present, the industry is rolling up the clamping force tonnage of die-casting. Xiaomi firmly follows the road of full-stack self-research. From self-developed materials, equipment cluster systems, to finished castings, Xiaomi has completed full-stack self-research in almost all links in the large die-casting industry chain.

In the field of intelligent soft technology, Xiaomi has shown the unique advantages of "big technology factory, ecological car building", promoting the integration of the automotive industry with the consumer electronics industry and intelligent ecology. For example, based on Xiaomi Surging OS, Xiaomi’s smart cockpit has realized the bottom-level reconstruction, evolved for the car, and created an advanced intelligent mobile space; in the field of intelligent driving, Xiaomi’s industry premiere adaptive zoom BEV technology, road large model, super-resolution occupation network technology and other three key technologies, top configuration, full stack self-developed Xiaomi intelligent autonomous driving, will be among the first echelon of the industry in 2024.

In addition, AI fully empowers Xiaomi Automobile to integrate cutting-edge technologies and achieve a new highlight of hard core innovation breakthroughs. For example, in addition to the industry’s first road model, Xiaomi also developed the world’s first mass-produced "end-to-end perceptual decision-making model" for the valet parking scene of intelligent driving, which can observe and dynamically adjust parking spaces and other ultra-difficult parking spaces in real time. For example, in the process of developing Xiaomi Titan alloy, Xiaomi also developed a multi-material performance A simulation system. From 10.16 million formulations, the optimal alloy formula that takes into account strength, toughness and stability is selected.

"Technology × Ecology" leads the way, promoting the evolution of smart electric vehicles into a "mobile smart space"

"What we want to build is not a mediocre car, but a dream car comparable to Porsche and Tesla." At the press conference, Lei Jun shared the goal of Xiaomi’s car, and Lei Jun shared the goal of Xiaomi’s car: to rival Porsche and Tesla, to create a dream car in the new era of the automobile industry, and to make a mobile smart space that looks good, easy to drive, comfortable and safe.

In his opinion, the automobile has been developed for more than 130 years, and has always been the "king of industry", and has always been the most typical representative of the "zeitgeist" of each era. In the first 100 years of the automobile, as a travel vehicle, Porsche was a model; since the new century, Tesla has taken the lead in driving intelligent electric vehicles, making the car a "movable computing end point"; and now, the new mission of the automobile industry is to create an "advanced mobile intelligent space", which is the starting point of Xiaomi’s car.

Therefore, Xiaomi’s first car, the SU7, has been fully invested in Xiaomi’s car-making concept from the beginning of development to successful mass production: technology × ecology, advanced mobile smart space.

As the Dream Car of the "trinity" of extreme technology, extreme experience and extreme aesthetics, Xiaomi SU7 is positioned as a "C-class high-performance ecological technology car", based on the extreme performance of high performance, ecological technology, and mobile intelligent space experience. Industry experts said that Xiaomi SU7 fully demonstrates Xiaomi’s "technology × ecology" path innovation and the cognitive guidance of "mobile intelligent space".

In terms of the ultimate technology and advanced driving experience, the appearance of the Xiaomi SU7 is the peak of performance and the ultimate driver’s car. With a series of hard-core technological innovations such as the self-developed super motor HyperEngine, CTB integrated battery technology, and the body structure born out of the 9100t super die-casting technology, the zero-hundred acceleration of the Xiaomi SU7 Max directly soared to 2.78 seconds, and one foot stepped into the "2-second supercar club". The maximum speed also reached 265km/h, both of which exceeded the Porsche Taycan Turbo.

The Mi SU7 is also a true all-rounder for multi-scenarios. It is a full-stack self-developed intelligent chassis control algorithm with two capabilities: full-dimensional intelligent perception and global collaborative control. It can realize millisecond-level full-scene adaptive dynamic chassis control, and at the same time, it brings almost "zero bumps" comfortable driving experience.

In the advanced experience of mobile smart space, the five features of Xiaomi Surging OS (bottom-level reconstruction, Inter-App communications intelligent connection, active intelligence, global security, open ecology) are fully onboard and evolving for the car. The interactive experience of Xiaomi’s smart cockpit is the same as that of the mobile phone tablet. You can get started quickly without learning, and the system is also extremely smooth. The car system starts quickly in 1.49 seconds. At the same time, it also has a seamless inter-App communications experience between mobile phones and cars. For example, when the mobile phone enters the cockpit, the car will automatically display the mobile phone icon, and you can call out the mobile phone desktop with one click.

More importantly, Xiaomi SU7 has achieved three major ecosystems, integrating Xiaomi application ecology, hardware ecology and Xiaomi CarIoT ecology open to third parties, bringing an unprecedented smart space experience.

Among them, the car system is deeply adapted to mainstream in-vehicle applications, and the Xiaomi tablet application ecosystem seamlessly gets on the car. 5000 + applications will be gradually adapted. Mobile applications can also be Pin to the car, and the car machine will be turned into a native application in seconds. In terms of hardware ecology, it has supported 1000 + meters of home equipment to get on the car without induction, and the Pin point expansion interface is reserved in the car to support plug and play of the device. Xiaomi CarIoT ecosystem is fully open to third parties, with a unified standardized interface, the richest communication standard protocol, and a lightweight transformation plan for existing equipment. For example, after installing the intelligent safety seat jointly launched by the three parties in the car, it can support functions such as the central control screen displaying safety status, unfastened vehicle alarm, and the rear Pad camera observing the baby’s status.

Lei Jun said that the ultimate realm of smart electric vehicles is technological leapfrogging and the integration of people and vehicles. Only with the most advanced technology and the most complete ecology can we achieve the integration of people and vehicles. In terms of driving control, it is like arm control, freedom of control, and understanding what you think and what you want in the intelligent space. This is the ability that technology has to leapfrog to a new stage.

The complete closed loop of "People, Cars, Families and Whole Ecology" has ushered in a major leap for Xiaomi

At the end of October this year, the Xiaomi Mi 14 series was successfully released, and the satisfaction rate of e-commerce purchasers exceeded 99% in the first month. This led Xiaomi to rank first in China’s smartphone market in November, and to rank among the top three in the high-end market of more than 4,000 yuan. Xiaomi’s high-end development has achieved great success. At the same time, Xiaomi also announced a comprehensive upgrade of the group’s strategy, from "mobile phone × AIoT" to "people, cars, and home ecology", and cars have become the most important part of Xiaomi’s group strategy.

After three years of learning, growth and accumulation, Xiaomi has finally ushered in a major leap. Lei Jun announced at this launch that with the addition of Xiaomi Automobile, Xiaomi’s "people, cars and family ecology" has been officially closed.

"People, cars, and homes all-round ecology" is a super intelligent ecosystem that comprehensively connects people, cars, and homes, realizes seamless connection of hardware devices, real-time collaboration, and drives industrial chain partners to create people-centered and actively serve people.

First of all, it realizes the cooperation and co-evolution between people, devices and intelligent services. The ecology provides intelligent services for people, and people bring intelligence to the ecology, making the ecology smarter. With the HyperConnect Inter-App communications interconnection framework, Xiaomi Surging OS has opened up more than 200 categories including Xiaomi cars, efficiently connecting global super-600 million devices, covering more than 95% of users’ life scenarios, so that intelligence can serve everyone in detail. At the same time, with the support of AI empowerment, people’s operating habits will make the "people, cars and the whole ecosystem" smarter. Xiaomi HyperMind, as an intelligent thinking center, can perceive and learn people’s daily habits and provide automated suggestions. Xiaomi Surging OS will gradually become an intelligent center that understands users better.

Secondly, the "full ecology of people, cars and families" has also realized the mutual empowerment of products, technologies and industries, and continued to open up. Xiaomi insists on "deep cultivation of underlying technologies and long-term continuous investment". In the past 13 years, it has laid out 12 technical fields and 99 sub-tracks. Based on the principle of "deep integration of soft and hard, AI is fully empowered", forming a "fusion technology stack" to continuously empower Product Research & Development and Manufacturing. At the same time, Xiaomi also collaborates with industrial partners to lay out the "industrial ecology" from industry developers, supply chains to intelligent manufacturing, and is committed to bringing together the potential energy of the whole industry, making Xiaomi Surging OS a more open operating system, and also making "People, Cars, Home, All Ecology" an open ecosystem that embraces more possibilities.

Lei Jun said that Xiaomi Auto is a major leap for Xiaomi. It is a leap from mobile phones, AIoT to cars. It is a leap in long-term investment and deep cultivation of the underlying core technology. It is a leap in the coming of age of Xiaomi’s modern industrial intelligent manufacturing capabilities. It is also a key leap in the complete closed loop of "people, cars, families and the whole ecosystem". "Xiaomi Auto is the new beginning of Xiaomi Group! I believe that one day, Xiaomi Auto will be galloping on every road in the world!"
