Xiaomi EV recalls over 116,000 SU7 vehicles in China over driver-assist safety risk

Shanghai (Gasgoo)- Xiaomi EV will recall 116,887 units of its SU7 Standard Edition all-electric sedan due to safety concerns linked to its driver-assistance system, according to filing recently issued by China's State Administration for Market Regulation ("SAMR"). The recall covers vehicles manufactured between February 2024 and late August 2025.

According to the filing, the issue may arise when the L2 highway navigation assist function is in use. Under certain extreme scenarios, the system may not recognize hazards quickly enough, provide adequate warnings, or execute sufficient corrective actions. Regulators cautioned that if drivers fail to take control promptly, the risk of collision could rise, creating a clear safety hazard.

The recall has been registered under identifiers S2025M0149I and S2025M0150I, affecting two vehicle configurations.

Xiaomi EV emphasized that the defect will be addressed through an over-the-air (OTA) software update, which will be rolled out to all affected vehicles at no cost. This means owners will not be required to visit service centers, as the update can be installed remotely.
