π Battle of the EV Titans: Xiaomi SU7 vs Tesla Model Y β Which Is the Smarter Pick at 250,000 RMB? β‘οΈπ
Xiaomi's highly anticipated debut SUV β the SU7 (YU7) β was officially unveiled at 7PM on 26 June, and it's already making waves across China's EV market! But here's the big question: if you had 250,000 RMB in your pocket today, would you go with the tech upstart Xiaomi or stick with the legacy EV king Tesla and its Model Y? π€
π₯ What's New with the SU7 (YU7)?
Xiaomi isn't just launching a car β itβs launching an ecosystem on wheels. The SU7 is expected to run deep integration with Xiaomiβs smart home and phone systems, potentially giving it a unique UX advantage in Chinaβs hyper-connected lifestyle.
Highlights include:
Snapdragon-powered cockpit π±
High energy-density battery and ~700km CLTC range π
Xiaomi's in-house HyperOS and autopilot suite π§
Clean, aerodynamic design rivaling Porsche Taycan aesthetics ποΈ
But perhaps the most disruptive factor? Price-to-spec ratio. For 250,000 RMB, consumers are getting performance and software previously reserved for 300K+ vehicles.
π Tesla Model Y: Still Worth the Premium?
Let's not forget β Tesla:s Model Y remains the world's best-selling EV, and for good reason:
Proven FSD (Full Self-Driving) suite with OTA updates π°οΈ
Globally trusted battery and powertrain reliability
Supercharger network π
Ecosystem with energy solutions (Powerwall, Solar Roof)
But with recent price cuts and intensifying competition in China, some analysts argue Tesla*s moat in the mass market is narrowing, especially against nimble local players like BYD, Xiaomi, and NIO.
π Market Angle: Will Xiaomi Break Past HKD 60?
As of now, HK:1810 trades around 56.90. Could it climb back toward its all-time high of 60 on launch hype alone?
π§ From a technical perspective:
The recent price action shows higher lows, suggesting accumulation.
If the SU7 order numbers beat expectations, it could act as a near-term catalyst for a breakout.
But, Xiaomi's stock also reacts to broader tech sentiment β so watch Nasdaq cues.
Fundamentally:
Xiaomi's pivot into EVs could transform its revenue mix in the next 3β5 years.
The market will be watching whether Xiaomi can achieve scale in production and avoid post-launch bottlenecks like NIO and XPeng once faced.
π§ Verdict: Who's the Better Bet?
If you're a tech lover who values seamless ecosystem experiences and cutting-edge cabin tech, the SU7 looks like a futuristic steal at 250K RMB π
But if you're more risk-averse, value resale strength, or plan cross-border use, the Tesla Model Y remains the safest bet β especially with FSD advancements potentially pushing its valuation even higher
