Xiaomi will most likely not acquire BAIC’s factories, nor does it intend to adopt the OEM model, but will build its own factories. In addition, it is revealed that Xiaomi’s vehicle has been completed, and the software integration of the vehicle can be completed in mid-October, and then various tests will be started.
Because Lei Jun, chairman of Xiaomi, has claimed that he will no longer respond to the information about Xiaomi cars, and will only disclose it through official channels, it is impossible to obtain Xiaomi’s comments on the above news.

According to sources, Yu Liguo is one the important roles in Xiaomi’s decision-making. Public information shows that he will join Xiaomi in the second half of 2021, and will be the vice president of Xiaomi Auto and the political commissar of Xiaomi Auto Beijing Headquarters from January 2022.
“Xiaomi will most likely not acquire the production line, or adopt the method of OEM production, and will continue to build its own factory with a high probability. According to the timetable for mass production in 2024, it will be completed in time .”
Previously, Xiaomi had announced in November 2021 that the Xiaomi Auto Headquarters Base would be located in Yizhuang, and will build a vehicle factory with a cumulative annual output of 300,000 vehicles in two phases. Among them, the production capacity of the first phase and the second phase is 150,000 units respectively.
After Lei Jun’s annual speech in 2022, Xiaomi has taken an important step on the road to mass production. “The software-integrated engineering vehicle is expected to be completed in mid-October,” the source said.
