Xiaomi YU7 has Ambilight's smart dimming sunroof

SHENZHEN, China: The Xiaomi YU7 mid-size electric SUV's MAX variant comes standard with the new-generation electrochromic smart dimming sunroof developed by Ambilight.

Ambilight says the black electrochromic sunroof offers seamless, software-driven control of natural light, eliminating the need for physical sunshades or films.

In its darkest setting, the sunroof achieves a 99.85% light-blocking rate, delivering near-total solar shading.

This ensures superior glare reduction, enhanced thermal insulation, and consistent passenger comfort across varying light conditions, while keeping a cleaner, more minimalist interior aesthetic.

Ambilight says it sets a new standard for performance and reliability in automotive-grade smart glass.

Engineered to meet rigorous automotive-grade standards, Ambilight's electrochromic technology is already in mass production, supporting panoramic and curved-glass applications across roofs and side windows — making it the only company in the world currently capable of delivering this level of scalable, flexible electrochromic glass at volume.

In May 2025 alone, the company delivered over 10,000 sets of EC automotive dimming products, setting a global production milestone for the smart glass industry.

Ambilight says the Xiaomi YU7 positions electrochromic smart glass for widespread adoption in the mass market.
