Xiaomi

Chen Guang joins Xiaomi to strengthen its assisted driving push as the company works to catch up with China’s leading EV players.

With the YU7, Xiaomi seeks not only redemption, but a shot at surpassing Tesla.

In his first formal response to the accident, CEO Lei Jun acknowledged rising expectations for Xiaomi and committed to meeting higher standards.

Regulators are shifting the focus from splashy claims to core safety features, rethinking what autonomy should mean.

Xiaomi says there’s no formal sales network in place, but the new facility appears to be part of a long-term Europe strategy.

“Intelligent assisted driving” becomes the mantra at Auto Shanghai amid regulatory scrutiny.

As investigations continue into the March 29 accident, scrutiny grows over smart driving systems and the global image of Chinese EVs.

Xiaomi’s first EV was a runaway hit. But a deadly crash in Tongling is now raising fresh questions about the risks of smart driving at scale.
