A big company from China that makes phones, Xiaomi, has started selling its first car, an electric one called SU7.

1. The title is misleading and exaggerated: Xiaomi CEO predicts Tesla-like success for his company based on the debut of a single electric vehicle model? This implies that Xiaomi will surpass Tesla in terms of market share, innovation, and reputation in the EV industry. This is not supported by any evidence or data, and it sets unrealistic expectations for both Xiaomi and its customers. A more accurate title would be "Xiaomi launches its first electric vehicle and receives over 100K orders".

A more balanced comparison would be "The SU7 has a starting price of 215,900 yuan (about $29,838), which is lower than the average price of the Tesla Model 3 in China, but higher than some other competitors in the EV market. The SU7 offers a range of 410 km and a top speed of 205 km/h."
4. The article cites Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun's statement as evidence of the SU7's potential success: "Xiaomi’s car officially debuts, the real revolution in smart cars has officially begun, and China will surely give birth to a great company like Tesla,” company CEO Lei Jun reportedly said at
