Munich, Germany – September 25, 2025 – Xiaomi is shifting gears in a big way. The tech giant just cut the ribbon on its very first Xiaomi EV Research and Development (R&D) and Design Center outside of China—right in the heart of Europe’s auto capital, Munich.
The new facility isn’t just a shiny new office—it’s a major milestone in Xiaomi EV’s global expansion, fueling its mission to lead in smart mobility and strengthen its “Human x Car x Home” ecosystem strategy.
Why Munich?
Munich isn’t just famous for Oktoberfest—it’s a hub for world-class automotive engineering and design. And that’s exactly why Xiaomi picked it as the launchpad for its European EV innovation journey. From performance vehicle projects to cutting-edge EV tech, the center will focus on design breakthroughs, advanced research, and customer-first innovations.
Driving Innovation From the Heart of Europe
“The establishment of the Munich R&D and Design Center underscores Xiaomi EV’s commitment to building a global innovation network,” the company said. By tapping into Europe’s top talent and ecosystem, Xiaomi plans to push boundaries in intelligent driving, vehicle dynamics, and safety standards—ensuring its cars inspire, perform, and meet global benchmarks.
Investing in People and Partnerships
This isn’t just about buildings and labs. Xiaomi wants to create a talent magnet, bringing together top engineers, designers, and researchers to collaborate with its global teams. The company says it’s committed to building an open, forward-thinking environment to accelerate advancements in autonomous driving, EV platforms, and next-gen user experiences.
Plus, the center will forge partnerships with universities, research institutions, and industries to speed up smart mobility solutions—while also tackling infrastructure and ethical AI considerations.
A Bold Step Toward Europe
Xiaomi already made waves in China with the launch of the Xiaomi SU7, SU7 Ultra, and YU7. Now, with Munich as its new base, the company is setting its sights on Europe, preparing for an official market entry by 2027.
This opening marks a turning point in Xiaomi EV’s global mission: to blend cutting-edge technology, sleek design, and smarter living under its ambitious “Human x Car x Home” vision.
