Xiaomi (HK:1810; group) is a Chinese consumer-electronics giant that entered the EV market with the SU7 sedan (launched Mar-24) and YU7 SUV (2025), ships EVs with an in-house HAD (Highway Autonomous Driving) intelligent-driving stack, LiDAR and up to 700 TOPS compute. Its Smart EV/AI segment delivered 411,082 vehicles in 2025, reached RMB106.1bn (~$15.4bn) segment revenue, and posted its first annual operating profit (RMB0.9bn). Distinguishing point: fastest EV-industry scale-up ramp in China with a two-model line; open question is whether its intelligent-driving/robotics ambitions (CyberOne humanoid still in pilot, not sold) extend beyond driver-assist.
