Xiaomi will hold its second automotive technology launch event on July 30, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. Beijing time, when CEO Lei Jun is set to detail the "Xiaomi Kunlun" technical architecture and formally introduce the SkyNomad N90 Max and N70 Max extended-range SUVs. Lei announced the date on Weibo on July 27, 2026.The event covers three pillars of the new platform: the Kunlun structural architecture, the Kunlun Super Range Extender powertrain, and a Kunlun full-domain safety system. Pricing will wait for a separate commercial launch expected in mid-to-late August 2026, likely timed to the N90's public debut at the Chengdu Auto Show on August 21, 2026.Xiaomi Skynomad launch event (Xiaomi)SkyNomad is Xiaomi's (HKG: 1810) second vehicle series after the SU7 sedan and YU7 SUV, and its first move into extended-range powertrains. Where SU7 and YU7 are battery-electric "driver's cars," Xiaomi is positioning SkyNomad as a family-oriented living space built for commuting, long road trips and camping, aimed squarely at the Li Auto (NASDAQ: LI) L9 and Huawei-backed AITO M9.Xiaomi has logged 626 days of road testing for the series through June 30, 2026, running 566 test vehicles across more than 4.28 million km (2.66 million miles) spanning two winters and two summers. The automaker delivered 185,055 vehicles in the first half of 2026, up 17.2% year over year, against a full-year target of 550,000 units. Both lines share a 1.5-liter turbocharged range-extender engine built by Changan's Harbin Dongang subsidiary, producing 112 kW (150 hp) that only charges the battery rather than driving the wheels. Entry N70 models pair a single 210 kW (282 hp) rear motor with a 52 kWh Sunwoda-made LFP battery for 270 km (168 miles) of WLTC electric range, while the N70 Max and N90 add a 100 kW (134 hp) front motor for a combined 310 kW (416 hp) and switch to a 76 kWh CALB ternary-lithium pack. Top speed across the lineup is capped at 190 km/h (118 mph).Xiaomi Skynomad N90 (Xiaomi)Xiaomi says the 76 kWh pack delivers up to 505 km (314 miles) of electric range under China's CLTC cycle, with WLTC figures running lower at 363 km (226 miles) for the N90 and 370-380 km (230-236 miles) for the N70 Max depending on drivetrain. Combined range with a full tank exceeds 1,500 km (932 miles).The N70 and N70 Max share a 4,960 mm length and 2,950 mm wheelbase, seat five, and stand 1,785 mm and 1,765 mm tall respectively. The N90, Xiaomi's full-size flagship, stretches to 5,285 mm long, 1,998 mm wide and 1,825 mm tall on a 3,080 mm wheelbase, offered in five- and seven-seat layouts with front seats that rotate 180 degrees to face the second row.Xiaomi Skynomad N90 rotated front seats (Xiaomi)A camping-oriented N90 Max Camping Edition adds a pop-up roof, a rooftop bed platform, side cabinets and a side-tent interface, with an optional detachable table and in-car projection; the raised roof pushes height to 1,925 mm and curb weight to 2,840 kg. Chinese media reports point to a starting price as low as 200,000 CNY (c. $29,500), which would undercut both the L9 and M9.Whether Xiaomi can repeat the SU7 and YU7's order-book momentum in a segment still dominated by Li Auto and AITO may depend less on the July 30 technical reveal than on how closely SkyNomad's eventual sticker price tracks that early estimate.Conversion rate: 1 USD = 6.77313 CNY as of July 26, 2026
