The Xiaomi YU9 (Chinese: 小米YU9; pinyin: Xiǎomǐ YU9), known internally as the Kunlun, is an upcoming range extended full-size SUV to be manufactured by Xiaomi Auto. It is the company's first vehicle to use an range extended powertrain.
The YU9 is expected to launch in 2026.
Overview
The YU9 is planned to serve as Xiaomi's flagship vehicle. It is also expected to offer 6 seat (2+2+2 configuration) or 7 seat (2+2+3 configuration) options and will carry a lower power output compared to the other Xiaomi models. It will compete with models like the Li L9 and the AITO M9.[1]
Design and features
The YU9's body design is a departure of that of the SU7 and YU7. Spyshots of the YU9 show that instead of using fastback-like designs the YU9 uses a boxy and upright design with a high beltline and sharp angles. The headlight design is expected to be carried over from the YU7 and SU7.[2]
A LiDAR system is expected to be included on the YU9 alongside Xiaomi's HyperOS.
Powertrain
Most powertrain details are yet to be uncovered but a 1.5 liter turbocharged inline 4 supplied by Dong'an Power is expected to be used as a generator supplying 2 electric motors that make an estimated total output of 400 horsepower. 800-volt fast charging is also expected.[3]
It is expected to travel 200 kilometers (124 miles) on pure battery power and 1500 kilometers (932 miles) when the engine is working with the electric powertrain.
