Xiaomi Sets First Customer Deliveries for YU7 GT

The factory handover will test Xiaomi Auto’s production ramp and premium-sales strategy after early buyers showed strong preference for the top trim.

Overview

  • Xiaomi announced that founder Lei Jun will host a factory delivery event for the YU7 GT and that brand ambassador Shu Qi will join the ceremony to hand over the first customer cars.
  • The YU7 GT was launched with performance-focused specs and a price range that starts at ¥389,900 and rises to ¥429,900 for the 'full‑spec' version.
  • Company reports say more than half of early YU7 GT buyers opted for the ¥429,900 full‑spec configuration, signaling strong consumer appetite for the highest-trim offering.
  • Xiaomi executives clarified that recent road test vehicles are not the rumored YU9 and confirmed the company plans to introduce at least one more new model before the end of the year.
  • The delivery milestone moves Xiaomi from product launch toward volume customer deliveries and will be watched for signs of production stability, dealer experience, and how the brand competes in China’s premium EV market.
