Meeting the Growing Demand for Seamless EV Charging
China’s NEV (New Energy Vehicle) market continues to experience rapid expansion, with both production and sales exceeding 12 million units in 2024, bringing the total number of NEVs on the road to 31.4 million. Since late 2023, EVs have accounted for over 50% of new car sales for consecutive months, making high-quality aftersales service—particularly charging accessibility and efficiency—a key competitive differentiator for automakers.
As a core pillar of Xiaomi Group’s smart mobility strategy, Xiaomi Auto has demonstrated impressive growth since its official market entry in 2024. The company has received overwhelming market demand, with over 135,000 deliveries since launch—outpacing industry expectations.

At the core of its technological innovation is the NaaS Energy Fintech (NEF) system, an AI-powered platform that enables intelligent site selection, investment return analysis, dynamic service pricing, and automated operations management for charging infrastructure. As of Q3 2024, NaaS has connected nearly 100,000 charging stations and 1.15 million chargers across China, with its platform serving a total of over 13 million transaction users.
