Xiaomi to Deploy Driver-Assist Fix for Some 40% of SU7 EVs

Xiaomi Corp. will deploy an over-the-air software fix to rectify a problem in its advanced driver-assistance technology installed in almost 40% of the SU7 electric sedans it’s sold.

The Chinese smartphone and electric vehicle maker will recall around 116,800 standard versions of the SU7, most of which were produced between Feb. 6, 2024, and Aug. 30 this year, due to the fact that the car’s driver-assist system may not adequately detect and warn of critical scenarios, according to a notice Friday on the State Administration for Market Regulation’s website. If drivers don’t retake control of the EV, there may be increased risk of collision, it said.
