Xiaomi has never claimed that their upcoming car model can achieve a range of 1200 km. If you've watched their launch event, they only mentioned that their platform theoretically allows for a maximum battery capacity of 150 kWh, which is equivalent to a 1200 km range. However, this 1200 km figure is purely hypothetical. Specifically for the Su7 model, it currently offers versions with a 73.6 kWh battery providing a range of 668 km and a 101 kWh battery offering an 800 km range. Moreover, these are figures for the single-motor version; if it's the dual-motor version, the range would be reduced to 628 km and 750 km. Regarding the motor, the mentioned 35,000 RPM is only a peak value obtained in a lab setting without considering durability, and it has never been a focal point of Xiaomi's promotion. For the upcoming car models, Xiaomi provides options with 27,200 RPM, 578 PS (referred to as v8s, expected to launch in 2025), and 21,000 RPM, 374 PS (referred to as v6s, expected to launch this year). These figures sound much more reasonable. I bet they haven't actually watched Xiaomi's launch event or reviewed official posters and content. Instead, they seem to rely on exaggerated rumors for attention. If you have watched the event, you wouldn't confuse these imaginary data with production cars; it's quite funny. The Su7 has already been approved by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). MIIT approval is a stringent criterion in China, and all approved models inevitably go into production because it signifies passing range tests, collision tests, compliance with emission regulations, and high costs-things that concept cars don't need to bother with. Xiaomi Su7's launch in 2024 is a 100% certainty. If you're genuinely interested in Chinese EVs and not just venting on KZbin, I recommend following a KZbinr called "Telescope望远镜" He provides a lot of genuine information about cutting-edge Chinese EVs, caters to international audiences by explaining in English, and emphasizes key points with international cognitive differences.

[@hyderabadutube]

100% agree with you. They haven't watched launch event for sure. They don't even know Xiaomi already said it will support apple car play. They just relied on false rumors and made 13 min conversation around it They keep saying standard range 500 Mi where as RWD Xiaomi quotes 668 KM.. Completely misleading information by hosts. Typical American ignorance

[@fyp1201]

What do you expect from American media though?. Every time Chinese stuff come up they'll be like "yeah, it's chaayyynnnaaaahhhh". What they don't understand, it's always start like that and suddenly it's coming and is good and they'll act like nothing happened in the past they just go on.

[@wcsun5050]

Yeah, Marques based his entire argument on the mileage.

[@ethanlinderman8833]

Stuff like this always happens when these guys try to talk about cars. I hate to be a gate keeper, but it cringes me out every single time. Either get some knowledge about the automotive space before you talk about it, or don't bring it up at all on the podcast. The quasi-car talk is half hearted at best and frustratingly bad at worst. Also, daily reminder for Marques that Taycan rhymes with Icon. Its literally on Porsche's own KZbin.

[@hakuhyo174]

Xiaomi SU7’s range is CLTC number and times that by 0.7 you will get EPA number. So it’s not 500mi but 350mi-ish for 74kWh which is doable with structural battery / CTB tech. Zeekr 007 has similar spec - 75kWh battery, ~340 converted EPA mi, starting price of $29k and is ALREADY SHIPPING. So yeah, it’s like 99% coming out but spec isn’t as ridiculous as you guys think it is.

Funny how the Xiaomi EV turned out to be quite real and a major game changer in the industry in all senses. They gave us what they promised. I love how Marcus is so set on not considering anything other than Tesla and Porche as competition or even good EVs. Maybe his friendship with Elon is a bit too, marketing related and don't wanna cut that up by saying anything good about Xiaomi I guess lol

[@zy420806143]

this car is officially released

[@pttzty]

Clarify: the 750 mi is for the to-be-released 150kwh from CATL (NIO already uses that), and the 500 mi one is the 101kwh that they are shipping this year. There would be a base version as well for ~75kwh. All those numbers are Chinese CLTC based numbers, which would be 15% higher than EAP or WLTP used in EU or US. So when they say 500 mi, they mean 420 mi in EAP in the US. (China has a different mix of highway and local). The thing is the price, the current consensus is $30k for 75kwh one, $35K for 100kwh one. no where near $55k, it's impossible to sell that price in China with the segment of customers they are targeting. The charging is legit as there are already car companies in China (Li auto) with the actual video showing 520kw peak charging for more than 7 minutes, but yeah you need specialized super charging stations as regulars are still 350 or 250kw. Either way, way more choices in China compared to US where the only viable option is Tesla and they haven't really refreshed for 4 years.

[@mosgnz]

If you're wondering about the crawfish fact, here's something to solve your confusion. When it says double the size, It probably means double in volume. Which means approximately cube root of 2 (or 1.26 ) times the original length. Because the length is directly proportional to the cube root of volume. So a 1cm crawfish could grow to 40cm by calculation.

[@piraka_mistika]

32 cm, no?

It's absolutely hilarious to look back on what he said lmao

[@bluedinnerbox1370]

The reason why the range looks very long is probably xiaomi uses China’s CLTC standard for testing, which tends to have higher numbers than epa. For example, on Tesla China’s website, the model s shown in the podcast has 715km/444 mi CLTC range instead of 405 in EPA

[@ydorni5923]

[@evynfife7603]

Great idea I second this

[@charlesdamien5849]

I love what Ellis did what his hair this week.

[@christianurban]

Hey guys, one hint regarding the range of Chinese EV. Their range is measured using the NEDC (a test procedure). This procedure has a very low average speed and only requires very weak acceleration. Therefore the values for the electric consumption (and the resulting range) are really good. If you‘d test any European or American EV with this test cycle, the range based on that test cycle would also be much higher than the EPA range. To sum it up, if a EV is announced in China for the Chinese market, don’t compare that range figure to the EPA ranges you are used to, since they are based on to completely different test procedures. It would be like comparing you phones battery life in a processor benchmark test to the phones battery life playing on-device 30 fps video.

[@ritik_ghanshani]

20:10 Missed opportunity to call it Galaxy brain

[@Idefilms]

Nothing like them throwing to trivia and you see that there's still 14 minutes left in the podcast 😄 Loved it

[@jmunt]

the "doubling" is probably doubling mass/volume. Any shape (if remaining to scale) only needs to grow about 26% in length in order to double in volume (a 1x1x1 cube has a volume of 1, whereas 1.26x1.26x1.26 is ~2). SO, that means if you multiply your length by 32.5, your volume will multiply by a bit over 34,000. Babies only around 3-5 mm after the larvae stage, so that means you only need to get to a length of 10-16 cm to be 34,000x bigger in total volume

[@tomgong6349]

Xiaomi SU7 range is in the standard of CLTC testing, for example Tesla Model Y long range awd on China's website states the range as 688km in CLTC standard which is equal to 427 miles.

[@yanniklemm4108]

Apteras trick is efficency. If your car uses very little energy in total, you can make the battery small and light and still achieve range. And because the battery pack is so small, the solar panels can actually give you 40 Miles a day of range just from parking in the sun. That is more than the average person in the US drives a day. All of that on 100% free energy from the sun. And you can still plug it in if you want to. It's a brilliant vehicle concept if you think about it.

[@kevinscott8642]

29:39 There're some errors in the parameters of Xiaomi SU7. The 35000 RPM motor is still in the lab validation stage while the maximum speed of the V6s motor on the SU7 is 21000 rpm. And the range of 1200km is the upper limit of SU7's platform, I haven't heard any news about mass production.

1:34:00 David, actually depending on where you are in the world depends on what is considered as a continent and therefore varies how many continents there are. If i remember correctly the range is something like 7-10. It's just like how some countries don't recognise another country as a separate country to some other country. So there is a varied number of countries in the world depending on where you're based too.

[@hanwenxiong9177]

You know it is kinda believable if Xiaomi announces an EV with 700miles of range. They were one of the first companies to come up with over 100w fast charging for smartphones smartphones , they probably have a decent knowledge and infrastructure for battery tech. They might pull off atleast 600miles imo

With the whole CarPlay thing, I think one thing that wasn’t discussed that’s pretty important is Siri support. Siri’s not great at everything, but home (and car?) automation it does a pretty good job with. If I don’t need to use digital or even physical buttons because I can have Siri change climate, or heated seats, or even open the garage door with Home integration….sign me up!

Sounds like there's an unused live mic picking up the audio from everyone else's mic...or the gain on everyone's mic is set too high, picking up the audio from the person next to each mic. Probably knew this already and couldn't resolve this if the mics are all going to 1 input from a mixer...then again even if each mic was on its own input, if the gain was recorded too high from jump, it would be hard to get rid of that... especially when people are talking simultaneously.

I think it’s really interesting that car companies are on board with apple’s car play plans given the increasing importance of ux in the driving experience as a brand differentiator. If every car UX experience is the same, the manufacturer is losing a really important way to communicate their brand identity to their audience.

@55:07 One great possibility with having a greater integration with Android Auto or Apple Car Play and electric cars. Is now the navigation has real time battery SOC data, maybe even the ability to precondition the car. If Apple/Google Maps really tried with Trip planning for road trips. It means that most people don't have to use the rubbish trip planners than come on most non-tesla EVs. On top of that the maps will probably have the greatest source of charge station utilization, with public data + the data it gets from cars its connected to and knowing their plans etc. You would think Google maps has something like this in the works, atm I can search charging stations on google maps and it shows me how many people are there etc, but it would be perfect for it to be aware of my SOC and plan/change my route accordingly.

I like my 8Sleep Pod. The issue I have is some reason I get odd sleep patterns. I think its attempts to auto adjust me during the night effect my natural ability to heat and cool myself. I do think the idea is neat but some areas might need work. I would like to see a way to turn the vibes on manually though as it would be neat to have that option for laying down and not just wake up. Also would be neat to see a sleep pod that allows for more control over heating zones. Like head shoulders knees and toes. This could help people who need heat in certain areas but can not handle the whole bed being that way. I could see that being a good selling point for another round of pods. I know I would consider the upgrade for more control over the heat zones. Something to consider about the heating and my odd sleep patterns is the body will naturally try and heat up to get rid of toxins which is why we get a fever. So my thoughts are by allowing the 8sleep to attempt to auto your sleep you can prevent yourself from getting to the temp your body would naturally recommended. As for the Corsair Desk, that thing is awesome and somewhat regret my SL desk purchase. All in all, Im still happy with my SL desk but Corsair has gone and made a Desk that does not just fit Video Game mode but work modes and more. I can now recommend a desk to more than just one niche.

Aptera is supposedly legally classified as an "autocycle". Supposedly that gives it all the benefits of a motorcycle (reduced insurance cost, only a license plate in the rear, etc.) but none of the drawbacks (required to wear a helmet, safety?, etc.) And on the topic of shipping, at least they have production intent builds rolling off the line, with volume manufacturing of their "BinC" (Body in Carbon).

[@kevinscott8642]

Soon. They’re in the process of building the production-intent vehicles, which will be used for validation and testing over the next few months. At this point, there’s not much doubt they’ll make it to production, likely hitting the market later this year. To be clear, though it’s technically classified as an autocycle, the Aptera will for all intents and purposes function as a car. A two seater car with an exceptionally large cargo area in the back. I’m planning to get one and it’s going to be the perfect road trip car for me.

I wish one of you guys watched the Xiaomi SU7 launch, they never said it will have a 1200km range. I think you should watch part of the launch if you can't watch all of it. This conversation was like just shooting in the water hoping to hit some fish.

As someone who was born and raised in south Louisiana, it was pretty neat hearing y’all talk about crawfish on the podcast as it’s a staple of Cajun food where I am from. Fun fact: We measure how much crawfish we eat by pounds and not by the number of crawfish consumed.

Is it just me or does Mariah have a excellent NPR /podcast voice. More Mariah Please

Regarding Xiaomi car range, it's stating range using the unrealistic CLTC standard which is about 35% higher than an EPA rating. So the Model 3 CLTC rating would be about 452 (333x1.35) miles. If the SU7 has slow acceleration I think it could reach 500 miles of range but it would be similar to a Model 3 driven gently.

[@hakuhyo174]

Underlying in-lab drive cycle measurement is pretty similar between EPA, CLTC, NEDC and WLTP… but EPA literally ask OEMs to multiply that number by 0.7 and then weighted for highway (55%) and city (45%) 😑

So in the end, basically what I said.

Tom Scott is awesome, definitely worth checking out his channel

[@notext2]

I love that you guys got the Rollie impression of Tom Scott on the climate town special episode just before he announced his retirement/break from videos.

[@sp3lllz]

I daily drive the pixel fold and will totally agree there are some shortcomings but I love it so much because I can use it closed, Infact I use it closed probably 80% of the time for email and social media, texting ect and then only really open it for watching videos playing games stuff like that

[@kerwinhinds]

I was ironing and got the crawfish question correct. It was my first time getting a question right 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@prestonlee7321]

actually Xiaomiev has already built their own factory and got ready for mass production. the 750-mile range model has a 150kwh battery pack, which has not been released yet.

Adam and Ellis look different today.

I have a 12” iPad Pro, iPhone 15” Pro Max, Samsung Flip4, M3 MacBook Pro, AMD Threadripper 32 Core Workstation, and a ton of other smart devices, and I think Tesla Software is on par with ALL of those. I do not understand this “Tesla has worse software ideology,” do these people not use Tesla’s regularly? Everything about the software in my Model X Plaid is top notch, error/glitch free, smooth, has most of the apps I would use in a car (except maybe Waze?), is fast, plays steam games, and integrates perfectly with the car hardware, iPhone app, and android app. I truely would love to hear them explain *exactly* what makes android or iOS better than Tesla’s OS. Very confusing.

[@rallen9433]

Yay! I got it right I picked the swing set... hahaha

[@Daifii]

Looking for a new turntable too, do you mind sharing which one you got?

[@keerthan7558]

1:03:55 The material of the keyboard chassis affects the typing sound significantly. keyboard enthusiasts spend lot of time and money to tune their keeb to get the sound and feel they want. Plastic case - more of hollow, Pingy sound but cheaper to make. Aluminium case - more of a low pitched sound . better option if u want a thocky, creamy keyboard but expensive. You can tune the sound through foam, plates , switches etc too though. This doesn't mean u can't get a keeb with polycarbonate case to sound thocky though.

[@Lazy_Mammal]

Tom's veideo about the pronunciation of GIF is fun!

[@JassNL]

The Crawfish facts where my favorite!

[@lesismorepro]

Marques with the subtle nod to the Katt Williams video... 😂😂😂

[@AWritersHusband]

I'm interested to know what you guys don't like about One UI have you guys tried it recently? I feel like there are so many settings you can really make it whatever you want. I don't miss any of the features of Nova Launcher.

[@aliciagilman428]

I agree, one UI has gotten a lot better in recent years and you have a decent amount of customization, especially with Good Lock.

[@hp6r]

With Good Lock I feel every little aspect of it can be tailor maid to anybody's preference. I now have the 6x7 icons' drawer because display feels too large for less. Camera Assistant also allows me to force the use of the other lenses instead of the phone deciding to go to main camera if lightning is not perfect.

[@waynemorton6120]

And they haven't got a clue what Bixby is used for. For routines and on-phone automation, it is fantastic!! As an Assistant (Siri/Google Assistant) it's meh, but it does so much more and isn't going anywhere despite what the panel states. Clueless on Samsung's OneUI software.
