Design of Xiaomi YU7

The design of the new Xiaomi YU7 is pleasantly impressive, especially against the background of other Chinese cars. Its design has logical lines that are inherent in beauty. Xiaomi YU7 does not have all kinds of incomprehensible bloat, it looks like a classic European crossover. However, this result was achieved due to the fact that its design was inspired by various European cars. The front and side part the new Xiaomi has features of a combination of Ferrari Purosangue, and the headlights are reminiscent of those on the McLaren 720s (as well as the SU7). This is why at first you get the impression that you are looking at the new, long-awaited McLaren crossover, so classic is the design of this Xiaomi.

The profile of the car is also distinguished by a pleasant and elegant design and is again reminiscent of the Ferrari Purosangue. The only difference is the side air intake (which he borrowed from Aston Martin DBX). In general, the profile of the car looks very smooth (which is characteristic of all-electric cars), it should also be noted that the profile of the car looks quite low and sporty.

Tail of the new Xiaomi YU7 balances on the border of sportiness and elegance, on one side the rear spoiler and on the other elegant headlights that are very reminiscent of Aston Martin (like One77). In general, the back of Yu7 would look good if it were not for the huge obscure diffusers.

Conclusion:

The new Xiaomi Yu7 shows us a completely different side of the Chinese automotive industry. This car collected all the best features of the best European crossovers and embodied them in one car. As a result, from a design point of view, an excellent crossover with a minimum number of disadvantages was obtained.
