Xiaomi Auto, the automotive unit of Xiaomi (HKEX: 1810), secured more than 70,000 locked-in orders for its Sky Nomad lineup in the first 30 days after launch, providing fresh demand support as the company seeks to expand deliveries.
Xiaomi Auto announced the figure on Weibo on Thursday, covering the period from September 7 to October 7. It did not disclose an order breakdown by variant.
This is the company's first update on Sky Nomad's locked-in orders since it reported more than 10,000 within 4 minutes of launch. Locked-in orders reflect customer demand and are distinct from actual deliveries.
The lineup has already begun contributing to delivery growth. Xiaomi founder, chairman and CEO Lei Jun said on October 1 that Sky Nomad deliveries exceeded 10,000 vehicles in September.
Xiaomi Auto previously reported total September deliveries of more than 40,000 vehicles, its highest monthly level this year, up from 30,153 in August. The company has yet to disclose an exact September total.
The Sky Nomad lineup went on sale and began deliveries on September 7, with a starting price at launch of 209,900 yuan ($31,160), marking Xiaomi's entry into the extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) market.
The lineup includes the 5-seat N70 Pro and N70 Max, the 7-seat N90 Max and the camping-oriented 5-seat N90 Max Studio, expanding Xiaomi's offerings for family buyers.
Previously, Xiaomi Auto's lineup consisted of the battery-electric SU7 sedan and YU7 SUV. The new series broadens its potential customer base with extended-range powertrains and different seating configurations.
