Xiaomi president Lu Weibing clarified on the company’s May 26 earnings call that the test vehicles currently spotted on public roads are not the rumored YU9. He confirmed a new Xiaomi car model will launch this year with multiple innovations and strong competitiveness. The comment came during Xiaomi’s Q1 2026 report, where the company posted 99.1 billion CNY revenue and highlighted resilient smartphone performance, rising average selling prices, and margin resilience. Lu also addressed memory cost pressures and said Xiaomi won’t simply pass those onto consumers, hinting at product-mix and software optimization and previewing a new OS release in July–August.
