At 14 o'clock on December 28, 2023, Xiaomi held the Xiaomi Automotive Technology Conference, and Lei Jun, founder and CEO of Xiaomi Group, introduced Xiaomi's 1,000-day technical answer sheet at the Xiaomi Automotive Technology Conference.
At the press conference, a number of technologies such as intelligent cockpit, valet parking, and compatible with Apple systems frequently detonated the scene, and Lei Jun released cruel words, "Strive to be among the top five in the world, comparable to Porsche and Tesla". However, the price of new cars, which is of general concern to the public, was not announced by Xiaomi at this press conference.
Mijia equipment, seamless onboarding
At the press conference, Xiaomi officially announced the smart cockpit. The intelligent cockpit adopts a "human-centered" interactive architecture, equipped with a 16.1-inch 3K ultra-clear central control screen, a 56-inch large HUD head-up display, and a 7.1-inch flip instrument screen. The multitasking flexible frame allows desktop apps to be dragged and dropped, resized, and automatically adapted to a variety of devices. In addition, almost all operations can be completed through the voice control of 'Xiao Ai', and the core functions support offline use.
Xiaomi said that the intelligent cockpit officially transforms the car into a key carrier of an advanced mobile intelligent space. Based on Xiaomi's surging OS, Xiaomi has built a unified visual interaction system to achieve a comprehensive sharing ecology from software to hardware. Locomotive interconnection and screen sharing, the Xiaomi ecosystem achieves seamless onboarding.
Lei Jun, the founder of Xiaomi, announced, "Xiaomi's surging OS is officially on the car, and the 'whole ecology of people, cars and homes' has been closed since then. ”
"In the ecological screen of 'people's car home', the car is like a mobile home. You can control the car just like you would in a smart home. In the 'Mi Home APP', the car is presented in the form of a room, and you can control the car with one click through the quick control card of the 'Fusion Control Center'. At the same time, Xiaomi Pad can also be hooked up to the car, becoming the second and third ecological expansion screens, realizing the linkage interaction of five screens. ”
Netizens said, "The ecological interaction of Xiaomi cars is a bit interesting, and it feels like science fiction is shining into reality." ”
In addition, in order to meet the needs of Apple users, Xiaomi's smart cockpit is compatible with wireless CarPlay, and provides iPad-exclusive accessories and exclusive applications on the rear expansion screen. Lei Jun said that he hopes that Apple users will have a good experience driving Xiaomi cars.
AI is fully empowered and integrates cutting-edge technologies
In response to autonomous driving technology, which is the focus of breakthroughs in the field of intelligent mobility, Xiaomi announced three key self-developed technologies, including adaptive zoom BEV technology, road large model, and super-resolution occupancy network technology.
Among them, the adaptive zoom BEV technology is the first in the industry, which can zoom like the human eye and can adaptively call different perception algorithms according to different scenes. The parking scene is more accurate, the urban scene is wider, and the high-speed scene is farther.
At the same time, Xiaomi showed the large road model at the press conference with the real impact record of valet parking and said that the model can not only recognize real-time road conditions, intelligently adjust the driving trajectory, but also navigate smoothly without relying on high-definition maps in complex intersection conditions. By learning Xi complex intersection conditions and the driving Xi habits of old drivers, it can formulate a more reasonable driving trajectory and dynamically detour for emergencies.
In terms of obstacle recognition, Xiaomi's super-resolution occupancy network technology realizes unlimited types of special-shaped obstacle recognition. Compared with traditional occupancy networks, which rely on natural language models to describe obstacles as squares, Xiaomi's innovative super-resolution vector algorithm can simulate all visible objects into three-dimensional objects with continuous curved surfaces. In addition, Xiaomi's self-developed one-click noise reduction function completely eliminates the impact of rain and snow on recognition, effectively reducing the probability of misidentification.
Netizens said, "In the past, shopping malls in the district needed to queue up to enter the underground garage to find a parking space, but now you can directly let the car enter the parking space of the shopping mall by yourself, and let the car come directly to pick up people when you leave the shopping mall." ”
Don't pay tribute to Geely, Lei Jun: Respect
Before Xiaomi's automotive technology conference, Lei Jun posted a number of Weibo posts to pay tribute to Huawei, Li Auto, Xpeng Motors, NIO and BYD, but only Geely Automobile caused controversy.
Yang Xueliang, senior vice president of Geely Holdings, said that the announcement of Xiaomi Auto was "over", and Shen Ziyu, chairman and CEO of Meizu Group, also forwarded the Xiaomi poster in the circle of friends and said: "Is it interesting to kidnap such feelings?"
At the press conference, Lei Jun responded to the reason for not paying tribute to Geely. He said, "Not long ago, I met He Xiaopeng, and I told him that I would look at 'Wei Xiaoli' again after I built a car, and I felt that it was really not easy for you guys, so I wanted to pay tribute to you in a very formal way, so I posted a Weibo yesterday." ”
"I've always been in awe of the automotive industry as a whole. When I decided to make a car, I immediately visited the house and expressed my respect in person. During the visit, I also asked each industry senior for advice on what kind of car is a good car in the era of smart electric vehicles. ”
The technology is mainly released, and the price is still unknown
This launch event is also the debut of the Xiaomi SU7. Xiaomi says that the Xiaomi SU7 is not only designed for beauty, but also for driving. This model combines extremely low energy consumption with ultra-high battery life, and achieves a high-performance driving experience with a unique classic design.
For battery safety and battery life, Xiaomi said that the new model pioneered the inverted design of battery cells, with top heat dissipation, heat insulation design, battery safety detection and 14 layers of hard-core physical protection, and at the same time has excellent battery life performance, so as to optimize performance and performance.
However, in response to the price issue that the public is highly concerned about, Lei Jun only said at the press conference that it is impossible to sell it at a price of 99,000.
It is reported that Lei Jun also posted on Weibo to collect opinions on the press conference from "rice fans". When some netizens asked about the price of the new car, Lei Jun replied, "Today is a technical conference, so we won't discuss the price." ”
Xiaomi's official replied to the question, "Xiaomi SU7 is in the trial production ramp-up stage, and it will take a few months for it to be officially launched, so be patient and wait." Regarding pricing, we haven't made a final decision yet. However, the Xiaomi SU7 is indeed a bit expensive, but please believe that we are making it 'expensive for a reason', and the experience will definitely exceed everyone's expectations. ”
