Xiaomi SU7 uses 87.86 kilowatt-hours to fully charge its 73.6-kilowatt-hour battery

Gamingdeputy reported on May 23 that Xiaomi Motors officially released “Xiaomi SU7 Answers Netizens' Questions (Episode 42)” today, answering questions that some users are concerned about, such as the progress of production capacity and delivery improvement, and how it takes 87.86 kWh of electricity to fully charge a 73.6-kWh battery.

01. What is the current progress of Xiaomi SU7’s production capacity and delivery improvement?

After a series of efforts, our production capacity expansion and delivery speed-up are progressing very smoothly.

In June, Xiaomi Automobile Factory will operate double shifts, and we will ensure that we can deliver more than 10,000 vehicles in a single month in June.

We will ensure the delivery of more than 100,000 vehicles throughout this year, and will further strive to deliver 120,000 vehicles.

02. According to a media test, “Xiaomi SU7 consumes 87.86 kWh of electricity to fully charge 73.6 kWh of battery”. Why is this?

Let me first state the conclusion: This is not “reverse false labeling” and it will not cost you any extra electricity bills, but it is a true reflection of the actual charging and discharging amounts.

To explain this problem clearly, we must first introduce a concept: there is a difference between the real “power” (including charging and discharging) and the battery power marked in the product announcement. In fact, the marked power is tested and is not a fixed value.

In the industry, 1C or 1/3C is commonly used to mark the battery capacity. This “1C” or “1/3C” is the “discharge rate”, which refers to “how fast (how many times the rate) to discharge”:

  • 1C means a fully charged battery, which is discharged at a fixed current until it is discharged in 1 hour.

  • 1/3C, that is, a fully charged battery is discharged at a fixed current for 3 hours until it is completely depleted

In accordance with the requirements of regulations, when Xiaomi SU7 was announced, it was declared according to the 1C standard, so the battery capacity of the standard version of Xiaomi SU7 is 73.6 degrees. According to 1/3C discharge, the power that the Xiaomi SU7 standard version can discharge is 76.8 degrees. It can be seen that the amount of electricity released by the same battery is different according to different discharge rates. At the same time, in daily working conditions, the discharge rate is lower, the battery can release more power and run more miles.

As for charging, there are more influencing factors: first, to ensure that the battery capacity of the new car reaches the standard when it is delivered to the user, the actual charged battery capacity will be higher than the labeled battery capacity; secondly, due to differences in discharge depth, charging current, and battery management strategies , the actual amount of electricity charged will also be different, and more electricity may be charged.

Of course, you don't have to understand the principle in depth. You can simply understand it as follows: under moderate charging and discharging conditions, the amount of electricity that can be charged and discharged can be more than the marked amount, and there is no worry about spending more electricity. At the same time, the energy consumption displayed on the Xiaomi SU7 car side is the actual energy consumption, which has nothing to do with the charged amount and the marked amount, and there is no reverse false labeling.

03. Xiaomi SU7 mobile phone supports up to 50W wireless charging, why does it sometimes feel not that fast?

Xiaomi SU7 comes standard with a mobile phone wireless charging pad with a maximum charging power of 50W, but the actual mobile phone charging power will vary depending on the brand/model of the mobile phone and the status of the mobile phone:

Xiaomi SU7's mobile phone wireless charging pad supports Xiaomi's private protocol and Qi protocol. The wireless charging power of different mobile phones is different.

  • The wireless charging of Xiaomi series mobile phones adopts Xiaomi's private protocol, and can obtain a maximum charging power of 50W on the Xiaomi SU7 mobile phone wireless charging pad. However, the Xiaomi 13 Pro uses a small inductance receiving coil with low heat generation and high efficiency, so it can obtain a maximum wireless charging power of 30W on the Xiaomi SU7 mobile phone wireless charging pad.

  • otherAndroidThe wireless charging of the mobile phone adopts the Qi protocol, so the maximum wireless charging power of 15W can be obtained on the Xiaomi SU7 mobile phone wireless charging pad.

  • Because Apple mobile phones use the specific frequency band of the Qi protocol, the Xiaomi SU7 mobile phone wireless charging pad can obtain a maximum wireless charging power of 7.5W.

The wireless charging power will be different depending on the status of the mobile phone.

  • The mobile phone is currently running at high power, and the wireless charging power of the mobile phone will actively reduce for thermal protection.

  • When the current battery of the mobile phone is relatively full, the wireless charging power of the mobile phone will also be actively reduced to protect the battery.

In addition, if the mobile phone is placed skewed, it may also cause the wireless charging power to decrease. You can try to adjust the position of the mobile phone to obtain the maximum wireless charging power.

04. When the air volume of the air conditioner is increased, the media volume will automatically increase. Is this normal?

Normal, this is the automatic sound compensation function. When this function is turned on, the sound will compensate according to the surrounding noise to provide a better listening experience. You can turn it on or off in “Settings” – “Sound” according to your preferences.

05. The screen displays “When the main driver leaves the car, the phone mirroring function is disabled.” Can this be turned off?

In order to protect the privacy of the driver when using the MIX desktop function, the entrance to the MIX desktop function will be temporarily closed when the driver gets out of the car or opens the door. At this time, the mobile phone icon at the bottom of the central control screen is grayed out and cannot be clicked for use. This function is enabled by default and cannot be turned off.
