Xiaomi Sky Nomad N90 Revealed as Large Extended-Range SUV with LiDAR

Xiaomi has officially unveiled the first high-definition exterior images of the Sky Nomad N90, confirming the name of the first model in its new Sky Nomad product lineup. The large sport utility vehicle introduces a different design philosophy from the company's existing models and has been developed as a spacious, intelligent family-focused vehicle. According to Xiaomi, the new lineup is intended to deliver greater versatility while expanding the company's electric vehicle portfolio into an additional market segment.

Xiaomi reveals exterior design of the Sky Nomad N90

The newly released images show that the Xiaomi Sky Nomad N90 adopts a bold, box-shaped appearance with proportions typical of a large SUV. The front section carries the Xiaomi logo on the hood, while the Sky Nomad branding is positioned prominently at the leading edge of the vehicle. The SUV is equipped with a roof-mounted LiDAR sensor and semi-hidden door handles designed to comply with the latest national standards in China, highlighting the company's emphasis on intelligent driving technologies and regulatory compliance.

Interior focuses on flexible living space

Xiaomi has also previewed the vehicle's interior, showcasing a cabin designed for multiple everyday scenarios. The first-row seats can rotate, allowing occupants to create a lounge-like environment inside the vehicle. A compact floor-mounted table can be installed between the first and second rows, enabling configurations suited for work, dining, relaxation, or family activities. Company founder, chairman and CEO Lei Jun described the concept as transforming the SUV into a personal studio, café, living room, or family play area depending on user needs.

Sky Nomad becomes Xiaomi EV's second product lineup

The company confirmed that Sky Nomad is the second product lineup under Xiaomi EV following the SU7 and YU7 series rather than a separate sub-brand. While the existing models emphasize driving performance, the Sky Nomad family has been designed around interior comfort, spaciousness, and lifestyle-oriented functionality. Development reportedly continued for more than three and a half years before the first production model was introduced.

Expected specifications and market positioning

Earlier local reports indicated that the first Sky Nomad model carries the internal project name Kunlun N3. The full-size extended-range electric SUV is expected to measure more than 5.3 meters in length and feature a battery exceeding 70 kWh in capacity. Estimated pure electric driving range is expected to fall between 400 and 500 kilometers, although Xiaomi has not yet disclosed official powertrain specifications.

Competition and production plans

The model is expected to have a core price beginning around 200,000 yuan, placing it in direct competition with Li Auto and Huawei-backed Aito in the rapidly expanding extended-range SUV market. Xiaomi has not yet released official powertrain details, but the vehicle is expected to strengthen the company's presence in the premium family SUV segment.

Production readiness has also progressed. A vehicle access list published by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on June 10 confirmed approval for Xiaomi EV to manufacture extended-range electric passenger vehicles at its Beijing production facility. Previously, the company produced only battery electric vehicle models.

Xiaomi targets higher deliveries in 2026

The Sky Nomad lineup forms an important part of Xiaomi's expansion strategy for 2026. The company has established a full-year delivery target of 550,000 vehicles, representing approximately 34% growth over the roughly 410,000 units delivered during 2025. During the first half of the year, Xiaomi EV delivered 185,055 vehicles, meaning substantially higher monthly deliveries will be required during the remaining months to achieve its annual objective.
