Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun congratulated Tesla on its first Full Self-Driving (FSD) delivery and acknowledged the need for Xiaomi to continue learning in the electric vehicle industry.
Lei Jun's comments were in response to a post by Tesla VP Grace Tao highlighting the autonomous delivery of a Model Y with no driver, reaching speeds over 70 mph.
Tesla's innovative FSD program and achievements in the industry command respect internationally, with Xiaomi seen as a strong competitor to Tesla in the Chinese electric vehicle market.
Xiaomi's recent vehicle, the YU7, is positioned as a formidable rival to Tesla's Model Y in terms of affordability, size, and features, receiving significant attention and over 200,000 firm orders within minutes of its launch.
