Xiaomi Registers SU9 LUX Trademark, Indicating New Sedan Model
Xiaomi has registered the "XIAOMI SU9 LUX" trademark for vehicles, supporting reports that it is developing a larger executive sedan. The new model is expected to offer enhanced rear-seat space and comfort.
Chinese technology firm Xiaomi has registered the "XIAOMI SU9 LUX" trademark for vehicle use, bolstering speculation about a larger, premium sedan in development. The trademark, filed on February 13 and announced on September 7, is protected until 2036.
Domestic automotive outlets have linked the SU9 LUX designation to a longer-wheelbase derivative of the SU7, previously rumored as the SU7L. Sightings of test vehicles suggest a stretched body with increased rear passenger space. Reports also indicate the potential inclusion of rear-wheel steering.
This forthcoming model appears positioned to cater to customers prioritizing rear-seat comfort and legroom over the standard SU7. The move aligns with Xiaomi's broader ambitions in the automotive sector.
Xiaomi has not officially confirmed the SU9 LUX model name, its specific features, or a timeline for its release.
