In contrast to the growing number of large orders, Xiaomi auto stores are busy. On the afternoon of March 30, the queue waiting to see the car at the Xiaomi car store in Guangzhou Xinghuan Square was tens of meters outside the store.
On the same day, a reporter from Time Weekly came to a Xiaomi flagship store in Dongcheng District, Beijing, where a large number of consumers were lining up to enter the store. In the store, consumers who test ride, take photos, and take photos with Xiaomi SU7 are in an endless stream.
Sales Liu Yi (a pseudonym) told reporters that from opening in the morning to closing in the evening, there have been many people to see the car and book a car. "I finished work at 2 a.m. on the 29th, and I had to go to work at 9 a.m. on these two days as usual." According to Liu Yi, among the consumers who came to the store in the past two days, more people chose the standard version and the Max version. In the color of the model, most consumers have chosen the elegant gray that does not need to be purchased with 7,000 yuan.
The enthusiasm of consumers to test drive is also rising. In the Time Weekly reporter's Xiaomi car discussion group, a consumer in Foshan said: "I went to the Xiaomi car store on March 29, and there were more than 200 people queuing for a test drive on weekdays, and even the test drive had to share a car, which has never been seen." "Several test drives ran from morning to night, and in the afternoon, the battery was low, and some cars were already charging. I don't know how many groups of test drives were received in the end."
In areas with fewer stores, there are rice fans who drive hundreds of kilometers to see the car. A rice fan from Jinan took a test drive at a Xiaomi car store in Qingdao on March 30 and made up his mind with success. "My pickup date says it won't be until July." Judging from the feedback within the group, the delivery date of Xiaomi cars is being rapidly delayed.
On March 31, the Xiaomi Auto APP showed that the Xiaomi SU7 standard edition, priced at 215,900 yuan, is expected to be delivered 13 to 16 weeks later; The $245,900 Xiaomi SU7 Pro version is expected to be available 16 to 19 weeks later; The $299,000 Xiaomi SU7 Max version is expected to be ready for delivery in 25 to 28
weeks.
