Xiaomi Recalls 115,000 SU7 EVs For Software Fix

Xiaomi (XIACF) will push a software update to more than 115,000 of its SU7 electric sedans to address potential safety risks linked to assisted-driving features, according to a notice from Chinese regulators.

The move counts as a formal recall under product-safety rules, even though no physical repairs are needed. It's also the second time since the model's launch last year that Xiaomi has had to roll out a software fix flagged by regulators.

For Xiaomi, the recall underscores both the promise and the pitfalls of moving from consumer electronics into cars. While the SU7 has helped position the company as a player in China's crowded EV market, regulators are watching closely for safety issues that could slow momentum.

Investors will be weighing whether frequent fixes dent consumer confidence in Xiaomi's EV pushor simply highlight the fast, software-driven nature of today's car recalls. The company's ability to balance speed with safety will be key as it expands its automotive ambitions.
