We recently talked about Xiaomi Car, or the enterprising model of electric car of the Chinese giant. Specifically, we referred to how many vehicles will be produced each year. On the company's first four-wheel electric vehicle, we also know more like the exit date of the first model and the technology it will use. But how much do we know about the car's battery performance of the vehicle and of models that the tech giant will present? Well, today we may have some more information thanks to the Chinese media. Let's see everything in detail.
The Xiaomi Auto electric car project is proceeding at levels that we did not expect. We know that the EV will count on 4 models and 2 battery configurations
According to reports from Chinese industry media, the Xiaomi Auto project is proceeding at full speed. The electric car industry has seen a increase in staff of 1000 employees (the company communicates this in the earnings report QXNUMX) since it started and this is a good sign. But today let's see some more details about the vehicle itself. The news that reaches us speaks of the existence of more models (which we will see later) but also of the use of two battery configurations. One model will use a 400 V while another model a battery from 800 V. For the sake of completeness, a common battery for electric cars is 400 V but more performing ones like the Porsche Taycan or l 'The Audi e-tron GT reach 800 V.

This already tells us that we will have more than one model, but how many in the end? Another Chinese source speaks of 4 models in all, although it does not specify how many Xiaomi Auto will use the 400V battery and how many the 800V battery. According to information released by the media, it seems that the company is in contact with two giants electric battery distributors: BYD and NIO. However, it appears that the Xiaomi Auto will use BYD batteries.
