Chinese electronics behemoth Xiaomi came out swinging when it launched its first EV, the SU7, just a month ago. Determined to keep that momentum, Xiaomi is already planning a successor that will directly take on the infamous Tesla Model Y. According to a new Bloomberg report, Xiaomi's next vehicle will be an SUV and could launch as early as 2025. This move would rapidly position the brand in greater competition with Tesla and other domestic rivals like BYD, Nio, and Xpeng.

By Friday, April 3rd, it had delivered 5,000 units. Deliveries continued throughout April, landing on an impressive 7,058 units by the end of the month.
