One glaring omission in the SU7 is the absence of a mechanical emergency switch, a standard feature in most vehicles. With only an electronic switch in place, rescue operations become challenging in the event of a collision where occupants are rendered unconscious.

2. Poor Material Quality and Airbag Performance

7. Inadequate Soundproofing

To cut costs, Xiaomi opted against double-layered soundproof glass, resulting in excessive noise levels at higher speeds. This compromise in comfort undermines the driving experience and reflects a disregard for passenger comfort.
