Overview
- Xiaomi unveiled the SkyNomad N90 Max (seven‑seat) and N70 Max (five‑seat) at a July 30 Beijing event, set pre‑orders with a refundable CNY1,000 deposit and priced the models at CNY299,900 and CNY259,900 respectively.
- The Kunlun architecture delivers a completely flat floor, long sliding seat rails and rotating front seats to enable multiple cabin layouts that Xiaomi pitches as a ‘living‑space’ for family use.
- SkyNomad uses an extended‑range electric layout with a 1.5‑litre M15DRE range extender that charges the battery, two battery options (52 kWh LFP and 76 kWh NMC) and company CLTC ranges including a 1,705 km combined figure for the N90 Max.
- Regulatory WLTC filings and independent reporting show materially lower electric‑only ranges than Xiaomi’s CLTC claims, and the company says deliveries will begin in September with a wider commercial launch tied to the Chengdu Auto Show and a planned European rollout next year.
- Xiaomi is pricing SkyNomad below some premium rivals to accelerate sales after H1 deliveries fell short of targets, a move that could push prices and product strategies across China’s large SUV segment while buyers should note testing cycles vary by market.
