We will launch more and richer CarIoT accessories for the car in the future. The interior expansion pin ports will also be opened to Xiaomi HyperOS Connect certified partners, fully embracing third-party developers. We welcome everyone to co-build the intelligent space ecosystem.

Supplementary note

Additional context for the official answer

Third-party access requires certification

CarIoT port openness does not mean plug-and-play for all hardware. Third-party devices must pass Xiaomi HyperOS Connect certification to ensure electrical safety, protocol compatibility, and system stability. Uncertified hardware may cause electrical faults or software conflicts.
