according to fast technology on september 17, xiaomi motors officially responded to a video circulating online showing a xiaomi su7 emitting smoke in an accident.

it is reported that at around 10:03 am on september 16, a xiaomi su7 was involved in an accident on a road near nanjing south railway station.

the authorities initially confirmed that the vehicle was driving on a slippery road.due to improper operation by the driver, the vehicle ran out of the lane and crashed into the isolated flower bed area.

the front bumper and chassis area of ​​the vehicle hit the continuous square stones (approximately 28cm*30cm*50cm) around the isolation belt.

the passengers in the vehicle involved in the accident were injured by the impact of the collision and are currently receiving timely examination and treatment in the hospital.

xiaomi auto mentioned that the impact caused serious damage to the bottom of the battery. it is suspected that a local short circuit occurred inside the battery due to the impact, resulting in short-term smoke and flames, and pressure release downwards.

from the photos taken at the scene,after the accident, the car windows automatically lowered and the doors opened, and the fire did not spread.in addition to timely fire extinguishing, the ability to control open flames is largely due to the battery cell inversion technology.

it is understood thatxiaomi su7 adopts the industry's first inverted battery cell technology, with the pressure relief valve facing downward. in extreme cases, energy can be released downward quickly to ensure the safety of the passenger compartment to the greatest extent.

in addition, the xiaomi su7 battery cell has 17 layers of high-voltage insulation protection, active cooling technology, and a dual large-surface cooling area of ​​up to 7.8 square meters, which is four times the industry level.

at the same time, 165 pieces of aerogel are filled on the side of the battery cell.it can withstand high temperatures up to 1000°c.
