Xiaomi debuts SkyNomad extended-range SUVs: 7-seat N90 Max, 5-seat N70 Max


BEIJING: Xiaomi EV has unveiled its SkyNomad Series, the first model built on the company's Kunlun platform.

Positioned as an intelligent, reconfigurable, large-space SUV (sport utility vehicle), the Xiaomi SkyNomad is built around three core strengths — expansive interior space, a completely flat cabin floor, and reconfigurable seating.

These strengths are paired with the Kunlun HyperRange, Xiaomi Armor Scale Battery, and Kunlun Total Safety.

There are two SkyNomad extended-range SUV variants, namely the flagship seven-seater N90 Max and five-seat AWD (all wheel drive) N70 Max.

Pre-sale prices are 299,900 yuan (RM181,926) for the N90 Max and 259,900 yuan (RM157,661) for the N70 Max.


Battery capacity ranges from 52kWh (entry) to 76kWh.

On CLTC, the N70 Max reaches up to 505km of EV (electric vehicle)-only range (best in its class); the N90 Max reaches 464km.

Combined with a large fuel tank, the N90 Max reaches a combined range of 1,705km.

Dual-motor all-wheel drive delivers 310kW of peak power.

Despite a nearly 5.3-metre length, the N90 Max has a 5.95-metre turning radius, aided by rack-type electric power steering for agile, precise handling.


The N90 Max features a double-wishbone front suspension, and an H-arm multi-link rear suspension.

Five-stage adjustable air springs and continuously variable damping balance comfort and control.

The SkyNomad's proportions are billed as offering an SUV exterior wrapped around MPV (multi-purpose vehicle)-level interior volume.

The larger N90 Max variant measures 5,285mm long, 1,998mm wide, and 1,825mm tall, on a 3,080mm wheelbase.

The mid-to-large N70 Max variant measures 4,960mm × 1,998mm × 1,765mm, on a 2,950mm wheelbase.


Three lines define the upright stance: a flat roofline that maximises second- and third-row headroom; a continuous waistline that stretches the profile; and a rising sill line that lifts the visual center of gravity for a more commanding presence.

The dragonfly-shaped headlights evolve the classic cross pattern into the front fascia; the halo taillight transforms into an inverted U-shape.

The SkyNomad incorporates over 140 aerodynamic optimizations, including a standard active grille across the range, achieving a drag coefficient of 0.255 on the N90 Max variant.

Smart electric doors open by touch or voice; rear doors open to nearly 90-degree for easy entry and exit.

A 360-degree anti-collision system uses AI to detect obstacles near open doors and can actively resist opening or sound a warning.


Second- and third-row privacy curtains create a private space for the cabin.

An optional electric side step (aluminum-alloy, rated to 300kg per side, tested through 100,000 open/close cycles) assists entry for children and older passengers.

Meanwhile, 95% of high-touch interior surfaces of the SkyNomad N90 Series are soft-wrapped, covering up to 32 sq metre — far exceeding the class average — virtually eliminating hard plastic in all hand, elbow, shoulder, and knee contact zones.

The entire 32 sq metre interior carries Oeko-Tex certification, applying infant-grade safety standards to the cabin.

The SkyNomad N90 Series' front and second-row seatbacks use a 12-layer comfort structure for a "big sofa" feel.


Beyond spacious seating, the cargo area expands to a maximum of 1,831 litres — fitting seven 20-inch suitcases.

The cabin includes 34 storage compartments, including an 18.4-litre front passenger glovebox (fits seven 13-inch laptops) and extended door-panel storage.

Up to 12 accessory ports support flexible device mounting.

Rear doors open to nearly 90-degree, with a 1,258mm entry aperture, a low sill height, and an optional electric step, for easy entry and exit.

All seats are power-adjustable; front seats include 16-point massage, ventilation, and heating as standard.


High-strength steel and aluminum alloy make up 90.4% of the SkyNomad N90 Max body, with 2,200 MPa ultra-high-strength steel used in 16 critical locations.

A 2,200 MPa embedded roll cage (A-pillar to C-pillar) supports a maximum roof-crush load of nearly 14 tons, and improves A-pillar load capacity by 24% against underride scenarios.

All four doors carry standard 2,200 MPa anti-collision beams, with anti-detachment hooks on the rear doors.

12 airbags come standard on the SkyNomad N90 Max — the most in its class — protecting all three rows.

Six-screen cabin connectivity allows content to move seamlessly between displays, paired with a 25-speaker in-house audio system for an immersive sound experience.

A 6.9-inch rear control screen enables full-cabin control from the back seat, including a live exterior sentry-camera view — useful for overnight security while camping.
