It is strongly tipped to be a huge sales success in its domestic market in China, where it is recommended to cause a headache for Tesla, so that sales model sales in the country are further eroded.
This is due to the fact that Xiaomi Products have an almost cult-like status in China, but also because the dimensions are larger than the model Y, calculates it faster and has a much greater reach.
