Xiaomi Motors has received more than 100,000 locked orders. Xiaomi has also delivered nearly 10,000 cars in June. The first electric car from Xiaomi has been successful. However, Xiaomi is already working on another model, possibly a hybrid version of the Xiaomi SU7. A company official has accidentally exposed the development through a screenshot containing the job description and requirements.
According to the information, Xiaomi is working on its first hybrid vehicle. Reportedly, there are jobs available for the development of the hybrid vehicle. For instance, the company is recruiting engineers who will be responsible for “vehicle thermal management technology route planning and program formulation.” The applicants will need to have more than 15 years of working experience in the automotive industry, 10 years of experience in thermal management integration, and have been responsible for the development of more than two hybrid or extended-range vehicles.
Unfortunately, there is no specific information available regarding the company’s development of a hybrid car. Previously, Xiaomi Chairman Lei Jun avoided answering questions about the new car in a Douyin live broadcast. However, there are rumors that Xiaomi’s second car is an SUV model, which is scheduled to debut at the end of this year and go on sale in 2025.
The company also reportedly has plans to launch a more affordable model, which will be priced at around 150,000 yuan, and could officially launch in 2026.
