The first phone company to come out with an EV.....beats Apple! (We can't count Foxconn even though they own the old Lordstown plant!

Smartphone maker Xiaomi applied for a sales license for their first EV in China – the Xiaomi SU7 sedan. It revealed some car specifications, and the EV will be contract-manufactured by Beijing Automotive Industry Holding Co. Ltd (BAIC). The EV was previously known under the codename MS11.

It will be interesting to see how the Chinese government handles this. I have seen in the past that they prevented a commercial vehicle company from building passenger vehicles and forced that company to merge with another business already producing passenger cars, SAIC.
