Recently, Lei Jun, the founder of Xiaomi Auto, posted a post on social media explaining why all of the new Xiaomi Pengcheng series are only increasing the range and not launching a pure electric version for the time being. Lei Jun pointed out three core reasons: the square box shape of the Pengcheng series has too much wind resistance, and the full-size large space vehicle is very heavy. If pure electricity is used for a long battery life, it will further increase the weight, which in turn will affect battery life. Lei Jun said that a large battery range can be used to charge pure electricity once a week for daily commuting. Under extreme circumstances, the increase range is covered, completely eliminating charging anxiety, and maintaining a car is worry-free. Earlier, the government also responded that the ultra-long battery life of the pure electric series of Xiaomi cars in the past three years has been fully verified by users, but users' living environments, car usage habits, and charging conditions are not the same, and there are also many users who need an extra long battery life to recharge once. When the Pengcheng series was officially planned and launched in early 2023, the power type was selected for range extension technology, and in-depth development, optimization and improvement were carried out. The purpose of using the extended range was to maximize the pure electric experience.
