    STOP spreading lies.
    Xiaomi offered the owner of the car that had the 39KM accident. two options, first, direct repair and compensation, but it will leave a record of the repair (which is normal), which the owner said he did not accept (he did not want to be cut down for it when he sells the car in a few years). Second, reschedule the production, but wait a few months.
    What was the final solution, Xiaomi rescheduled the production for him and offered compensation of 150 RMB per day in the meantime. That's basically the per capita income in China.
    Now the latest video has the owner happy and posting every day where he went to play today.
    Yes, Xiaomi isn't shirking its responsibility or compensating for useless points.
    This has been resolved for 2-3 days now, but unfortunately SAM, your information is not accurate, is Tesla not giving you updates? Or is it that the anti-Chinese media didn't do a follow up story leaving you without a source of information?
    Xiaomi is being praised by many for this move. Because just a few years ago, there was a famous incident on the Chinese internet where a lady had to sit on the hood of her Mercedes and bawl her eyes out because the Mercedes she purchased leaked oil before it even left the sales store and Mercedes shirked their responsibility until the incident was made a big deal Mercedes repaired her car and compensated her.
    There is no gap without comparison, never forget that.

    I heard other stories of Chinese brand EVs in Europe having problems getting spare parts. Of course VW has had this issue in the US and Europe with the ID4 - long waits to get parts. Some Chinese EV companies don't seem to make and sell small individual parts, but instead offer modules. Problem with a tail light? Can't get that, but they will sell you an entire rear panel assembly that has a new light in it. That is way too much like electronics companies doing board swaps instead of actual repairs. I dont think car buyers will ever be fine with such a strategy.

      @famousraperandrapperkriswu656 14 дней назад +2

      Remember the owner who took his SU7 off the track?
      His latest video shows the repair order
      The Xiaomi SU7's headlights are only 5,000 a piece, not in dollars, not in euros, but in Chinese yuan. That's about seven hundred dollars a piece.
      Then there's the owner who couldn't be bothered to get the reservoir for his air suspension knocked off, which was replaced for less than a thousand yuan, or less than two hundred dollars.
      The same items, and all made in China, why only Xiaomi is willing to lower the price of accessories as well.

The state-owned investment companies of SASAC serve as a mechanism through which the Chinese government can influence the market through the use of capital rather than government directive. Xiaomi now has its own factories. Not sure how SOSAC arranged it.

    Very common to happen to new car company.

    Now it's Xiaomi, an electronic company trying to get some piece of a pie in China's gigantic automotive industry.
    Xiaomi had zero experience in car engineering and marketing in automotive industry.
    So from this 1st product Xiaomi will learn the know how through trials & errors and will make a better products in the next models.

    there is a bit of a chinese zeal toward it due to it being done in 3 years while a competitor to xiaomi in its main segment (mobile phones) which happens to be apple, couldnt deliver an EV after 10 years and $ 10 billion spent...i think its a chinese zeal...with that you are taking a huge risk with a brand new car...but reading through the process they undertook to make the car, it is impressive nonetheless..very impressive especially, since they didnt outsource the manufacturing to another chinese company...

    Sam doesn't know that Xiaomi is mainly known for its Smartphones and the scooter and lawnmower-robot he is mentioning is part of Xiaomi's large blended CVC & ecosystem approach.
    This blended approach means that while Xiaomi borrows from both traditional CVC and ecosystem businesses, its strategy differs from these models in several notable ways. First, in contrast to typical ecosystem models, Xiaomi takes a proactive, hands-on approach to supporting its partner ventures. While companies like Apple or Google make their operating systems available and share a set of relatively generic tools to help app developers create and release products on their own, Xiaomi actively enforces consistent branding and quality standards across its entire product portfolio.
