Xiaomi SU7 – The first on German roads! Exclusive short test by Simplifier
A milestone for electromobility in Germany? The first Xiaomi SU7 rolls onto German roads – and we had the exclusive opportunity to test it. Thanks to Marcel Florian from Auto China my board colleague Reza Etemadian and I were not only able to take a close look at this innovative electric car, but also drive it ourselves.
What does a Chinese electric car have to do with low-code technology? At first glance, perhaps not much – but if you take a closer look, there is a common DNA in both : maximum innovative strength and efficiency.
🔹 Power & speed – Just as the Xiaomi SU7 is taking off in the e-mobility sector, Simplifier is accelerating digital transformation with low-code technology. Companies can use it to develop their processes and applications up to 10 times faster – just like the SU7 gets maximum power from the battery thanks to its aerodynamic design and smart control.
🔹 Intelligent control – The SU7 is not just an electric car, but a sophisticated, intelligent system that seamlessly integrates software and hardware. This is exactly what we do with Simplifier when we simplify IT landscapes, digitalize processes and network systems – efficiently, flexibly and without detours.
🔹 Seamless integration – With the SU7, Xiaomi shows how to combine modern technologies smoothly – from sensors to the operating system to AI-supported vehicle control. This reminds us of what we do at Simplifier: perfectly connecting systems and applications to get the best out of them.
Our driving experience – quality, comfort & driving experience
We not only marveled at the Xiaomi SU7, we also drove it – and we were impressed!
✅ Workmanship: The materials and workmanship feel high-quality. The cockpit is modern, well thought-out and tidy. There is no trace of the “cheap plastic look” that you often expect from Chinese vehicles.
✅ Driving feel: Direct, sporty and comfortable at the same time. The steering responds precisely, the acceleration is powerful – and almost silent! Anyone who has ever sat in an SU7 knows that this is not just another electric car, but the dawn of a new era.
✅ Technology & innovation: the cockpit is a paradise for technology fans. Large displays, intuitive controls, smart assistants – the SU7 feels more like a high-end computer on the move than a classic car.
Time to do away with prejudices?
“Chinese cars are of inferior quality?” – Forget this myth!
The Xiaomi SU7 impressively demonstrates that innovation is not bound by national borders. Xiaomi has proven that it not only masters smartphones and smart home devices, but can also revolutionize the automotive industry.
Our conclusion: Anyone who thinks that electric mobility has to be boring or expensive should take a closer look at the SU7. Price-performance, technology and driving experience are at an impressive level – and this is just the beginning!
One thing quickly became clear to us: the Xiaomi SU7 is not just another electric vehicle – it’s a real game changer! And not only that – its innovative spirit reminds us a lot of Simplifier.
An inspiration for German car manufacturers
Instead of seeing the Xiaomi SU7 as a threat, German car manufacturers should see it as motivation. It shows how innovation, digitalization and smart integration are shaping the future of mobility. Xiaomi combines state-of-the-art software, networked systems and powerful electromobility in a well thought-out concept. This is precisely where the potential for the German automotive industry lies: not just relying on tradition, but boldly integrating new technologies and business models. If established manufacturers combine their strengths with an agile, software-driven mindset, they can actively shape the mobility of tomorrow – and remain at the forefront
