Damn, Xiaomi went from zero cars to pumping out decent numbers, I'm assuming production still isn't catching up to demand?

troyteslike.bsky.social•13 days ago

Correct. Xiaomi currently has a 160,000 order backlog for the SU7, while the Model 3 has none.

Imagine that, a car with a backlog and a signal stalk? CRAZY!

The consistency for Xiaomi numbers compared to Tesla is definitely something

Giga Shanghai esports Model 3 to Europe. So. the first month of the quarter is typically low but Q1 will likely end at around 45,000 for the Tesla Model 3 and 69,000 for the Xiaomi SU7. That's 53% higher.

Good to see you here Troy, what gives?

While both cars are similar, some buyers prefer the SU7’s interior, which features real leather seats, a digital dashboard, and a head-up display, compared to Tesla’s minimalist design

Xiaomi is expected to start producing its second car, the YU7, in four months, which will compete with the Model Y

Some call Tesla’s design minimalistic, some call it cheap. A HUD must be available today as option for any car that wants to be taken seriously. The „vegan leather“ is by far the worst material I ever had in a car. Much of Tesla’s design was interesting when it was new; now it’s just mostly bad.

Maybe also add a signal stalk and ultrasonic sensors!

That would be too obvious! …

wished this would become available outside of China soon would really shake up tesla even more than they are now

Better quality and better price, minus the political meddling CEO.

Beautiful. And the SUV version makes the newly thin-lipped Model Y look entirely generic - which appeals to some, of course. It's not like VW or Toyota are known for their svelte, curvaceous cars.
