As of June 30 this year, Xiaomi has deployed a total of 566 test vehicles for the Xiaomi Pengcheng in batches. The 4.28 million kilometers represent the actual driving test mileage of the Xiaomi Pengcheng test vehicles on real roads. From Heihe at -41°C to Turpan at 53°C, and from Ayding Lake in Xinjiang, the lowest point of elevation on China's landmass, to the Ngari Prefecture in Tibet at an altitude of 5,380 meters, our test vehicles have traveled across 31 provincial-level administrative reg…

Simulation and laboratory testing can indeed significantly improve R&D efficiency, but they cannot completely replace real-road testing. First, real-road testing is a comprehensive combination of multiple factors, including driving conditions, road conditions, traffic situations, and climate environments, which laboratories and test tracks cannot replicate. Laboratories and test tracks can cover standardized and some combined conditions, but they cannot exhaust the infinite combinations of scena…

A complete testing system for a vehicle goes through the entire process of laboratory bench testing, standardized test track testing, and then real-road testing. The heavy camouflage, light camouflage, and de-camouflage stages during road testing correspond to different validation focuses and are standard R&D processes in the industry. The earliest laboratory and test track testing primarily complete the basic performance validation from components and systems to the complete vehicle, serving as…

Tearing off the camouflage does not mean the testing is over; it simply means the testing has entered the final fine-tuning and optimization stage before launch. Even after the official release and delivery, our testing will not stop and will continue to iterate throughout the product's entire lifecycle. Here is a very intuitive example: camouflage stickers and kits on the vehicle's surface will alter the airflow direction and interfere with wind noise test results. Only by completely tearing of…

Like the Xiaomi SU7 and YU7, the Xiaomi Pengcheng uses the exact same testing system and validation standards for the most fundamental assessments, such as complete vehicle safety and quality durability. At the same time, as an extended-range SUV, the Xiaomi Pengcheng faces more complex and diverse daily usage scenarios. Therefore, in addition to general testing, the Xiaomi Pengcheng's testing system specifically adds specialized validation for the entire range extender system. For example, vali…
