Xiaomi car: This is the Xiaomi SU7 Max and it goes from 0-60 MPH in 2.78s،

Xioami, who started his incredible journey as a humble DEVELOPER OF A CUSTOM ROM for Android phones – MIUI – in 2010, is today introducing HIS FIRST CAR to the general public here at Mobile World Congress. Apologies for the capital letters, but it blows my mind that these guys went from ROM developers to high-end car makers in 14 not very long years. Provided their success is legitimate at every step, just think of the incredible opportunities offered by today's technological world!

Anyway, what Xiaomi is showing off here is what I believe to be its high-end Xiaomi SU7 Max, which has a top speed of 165 mph (265 km/h) and can go from 0 to 60 mph ( 0 -100 km/h) in just 2.78 s. I'm no car expert, but it seems damn fast.

The Xiaomi SU7 runs Xiaomi's Android-based HyperOS and its president, Weibing Lu, believes they can actually take on the incredibly competitive EV market thanks to the reputation the company has already established with its smartphone business.

Unlike most Xiaomi products, which tend to be price conscious, the SU7 car won't exactly be easy to afford. From what I hear, it would start at around $40,000, which is about the starting price of a Tesla Model 3.

In person, the Xiaomi SU7 looks somewhat like Elon Musk's entry-level vehicle, although it absolutely has a character of its own. The high-end Max model on display here at MWC is definitely more impressive than your regular Model 3 that you usually see on the streets, but hey, Xiaomi has undoubtedly brought the best variant of the SU7 to impress us all here.

What do you think of the Xiaomi SU7 Max?
