In recent years, the competition in the technology industry has become more intense, and many companies have been pushing the boundaries to find breakthroughs. Against this backdrop, a striking piece of news shook the entire industry: the famous tech giant Xiaomi officially announced its entry into the automotive industry, a decision that immediately attracted widespread attention and heated discussions.
Technical controversy: self-developed or pseudo-self-developed?
The release of Xiaomi's first model, the SU7, especially its technical aspects, sparked a fierce controversy. Xiaomi showcased its self-developed motor technology, including V6, V6S and V8S. The V6 and V6S are already in mass production, while the V8S has a maximum speed of 27,200 rpm and is expected to be officially put into service in 2025. However, the release of these technologies has not been unanimously recognized by the industry. Some experts and netizens have questioned Xiaomi's self-developed statements, arguing that the technologies may actually be sourced from other suppliers. In particular, it is reported that some of Xiaomi's motor products are very similar to the products of another automobile company, Gaohe, and even have the same technical parameters, which further intensified the suspicion of the outside world.
Comparative Analysis: The Truth in the Details
A closer look at these technical parameters reveals some nuances. For example, while Xiaomi's V6 motor and a certain HIPHI X motor appear to be identical in some parameters, there is a significant difference in top speed. Xiaomi's V6 motor has a maximum speed of 21,000 rpm, while Gaohe's product only has 16,000 rpm. This difference shows that, despite the similarities, Xiaomi's products have their uniqueness.
Beyond the competition: a breakthrough in Xiaomi's die-casting technology
In terms of large die-casting technology, Xiaomi has shown its technical strength. The maximum clamping force of the large die-casting machine developed by Xiaomi reaches 9,100 tons, surpassing Tesla's corresponding technology and becoming a new industry standard. In this regard, there are also voices questioning whether Xiaomi has really achieved a technological breakthrough, or simply achieved an advantage in the digital game.
Public skepticism and reflection
Xiaomi's attempt to enter the automotive industry has been met with doubts from all sides, not only at the technical level, but also from various aspects such as market positioning and brand image. At the same time, it has also triggered the public's thinking about broader topics such as technological innovation and brand crossover.
Voices of netizens: brand image and market expectations
Xiaomi's move has caused heated discussions among netizens. Some netizens have made suggestions on the exterior design of the Xiaomi SU7, and there are even calls for the launch of a commemorative version with a three-dimensional car logo. Netizens have a lot of imagination and have created a series of concept designs based on Xiaomi cars, showing great interest and anticipation for this emerging brand.
Innovative design: Xiaomi's unique approach
In terms of exterior design, Xiaomi Auto has adopted a unique strategy. The official SU7 images inspired the designers, who created various versions of the Xiaomi car based on these images, from the yellow and green color scheme of the old Beijing taxi to the lidar with the "empty car" information display, these creative designs show the distinctive side of the Xiaomi car.
Technical dialectic: the dispute between true and false self-development
In the face of doubts from the outside world, Xiaomi and its partners refuted. For example, in response to the full self-development of the V8S motor, the technical partner Inovance Technology said that although it participated in the research and development of the V6S, the V8S is a fully self-developed product of Xiaomi. Similarly, regarding the controversy over the large die-casting machine, the die-casting machine manufacturer Haitian also confirmed Xiaomi's independent research and development capabilities.
Reflection on public opinion: behind the differential treatment
Xiaomi's attempts in the automotive industry seem to have been treated differently than similar initiatives by other tech companies such as Huawei. When Huawei first launched its 9,000-ton die-casting machine, public opinion generally gave positive reviews, while Xiaomi's equivalent technology was met with more doubts and criticism. This differential treatment has led to in-depth thinking about the media, public attitudes and technical evaluation criteria.
Conclusion: The eve of a new change
Xiaomi's cross-border move is not only an impact on the automotive industry, but also a challenge to the entire technology industry pattern. Although facing various doubts and challenges, its brave attempts have also brought new vitality and possibilities to the industry. In this era of competition and change, every step of Xiaomi's attempts deserves our attention and anticipation.
