Many vehicles on the market feature slide rails and rotating seats. How is Xiaomi Pengcheng different?

Official answer

Indeed, many models on the market are equipped with long slide rails or seat rotation functions. However, in terms of hardware specifications, functional implementation, and scenario richness, Xiaomi Pengcheng's approach has several distinct differences. Here, we take the N90 Max as an example, starting with the slide rails:

Extended length: The Xiaomi Pengcheng N90 Max features six extra-long slide rails. The seat slide rails can reach up to 1938 mm in length, allowing both the second and third-row seats to slide up to 900 mm each. This allows you to flexibly adjust the passenger space according to your needs at any time.

Robust materials: It uses 7-series reinforced aluminum alloy, which offers a 9% increase in tensile strength compared to standard 7-series aluminum alloy. The locking strength of the seat slide rails reaches 54,000 N, with a maximum peel strength of 57,000 N, ensuring the seats remain firmly fixed even in extreme collision scenarios.

Enhanced durability: A total of 15,000 cyclic sliding tests were conducted in temperature environments ranging from -20°C to 60°C. No loosening occurred after testing, far exceeding the intensity of daily use.

Next, let's discuss the rotating seats. The front driver and passenger seats of the Xiaomi Pengcheng N90 Max support 180° electric rotation and are equipped with dedicated rotation locking mechanisms. A total of 5,500 durability cycle tests were conducted in temperature environments ranging from -20°C to 60°C. After testing, the rotation function operated normally without any loosening. To ensure driving safety, the seat rotation function can only be used when the vehicle is parked in P gear.

Furthermore, there is the sliding center console. It features an extra-long 1260 mm slide rail with a maximum sliding distance of 615 mm, allowing it to move between the first and second rows. It includes a built-in 9L independent compressor refrigerator (capable of holding ten 330 mL cans of Coca-Cola simultaneously) and pairs with a 600 × 420 mm dual cup holder table board. In face-to-face seating scenarios, you can enjoy coffee or play cards with friends, creating a very pleasant experience.

Based on the square spatial layout, completely flat floor, and the flexible configuration features mentioned above, we can offer the following star scenarios that are 'Only Skynomad Can Do':

Face-to-face living room: Rotate the front row 180°, slide the center console to the middle, insert the table board, and move the second-row seats fully backward. This creates a 1760 mm face-to-face space for two people, with a social distance of over 2 meters, ensuring no foot interference.

Personal studio: The oversized track-mounted table board can hold a 16-inch laptop, with adjustable front/back position, height, and angle featuring a card lock; the seat on the other side can recline to zero-gravity mode with one button. Combined with privacy curtains and acoustic glass, the interior becomes a quiet, independent office space.

Four-person first class: In the standard four-person first-class mode, the second-row seating space can reach 1370 mm, allowing passengers who are 1.8 meters tall to stretch their legs straight. Combined with zero-gravity seats, long-distance sitting remains comfortable. Moreover, when the third-row cushion is folded upward and the second-row seats are moved fully backward, the maximum seating space can reach 1550 mm.

Ultimate storage: Move all second and third-row seats fully forward and fold the third-row cushion upward. The maximum trunk storage volume can reach 1831 L, capable of holding two 700C road bicycles simultaneously without removing wheels or folding them down.
