Xiaomi Auto has reported vehicle deliveries above 30,000 units for August 2026, marking its fifth consecutive month at this level. The company is preparing for the launch of its Sky Nomad series, which is expected to play a crucial role in reaching its ambitious annual target.
Xiaomi’s August Deliveries and Annual Target
Xiaomi Auto, the automotive division of Xiaomi (HKEX: 1810), announced that its vehicle deliveries in August remained above 30,000 units. This continues a five-month streak of surpassing the 30,000 mark, although the company did not release an exact figure or a breakdown by model.
According to China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) data, Xiaomi Auto delivered 31,267 vehicles in July, representing a 2.68% increase year-on-year but a 9.99% decrease from June. In August 2025, the company delivered 36,396 vehicles. For the first seven months of 2026, Xiaomi Auto delivered 216,322 vehicles, up 14.83% compared to the same period last year. Using the 30,000-unit lower bound for August, total deliveries for the first eight months are estimated at about 246,322 units, which is 44.8% of the company’s annual target of 550,000 vehicles.
To achieve this target, Xiaomi Auto would need to average approximately 75,900 deliveries per month from September through December, a significant increase from its July volume.
Sky Nomad Series: Xiaomi’s Next Step
Xiaomi formally introduced the Sky Nomad vehicle series on July 30, marking its debut in the extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) segment. The flagship 7-seat N90 Max SUV and the 5-seat N70 Max are both scheduled for launch in September, with Pro and standard versions of each model planned for later release.
The Sky Nomad series is expected to be a key factor in Xiaomi Auto’s efforts to accelerate growth and close the gap toward its annual delivery goal.
Competitor Comparison
Xiaomi Motors currently ranks fourth in the Chinese market, competing with established brands in the EREV and new energy vehicle segments. The YU7 SUV, another Xiaomi model, has already surpassed 150,000 units in deliveries within six months of its launch, highlighting the company’s rapid growth.
However, the EREV segment has faced headwinds, with retail sales in China falling 15.35% year-on-year to 535,000 units in the first seven months of 2026, according to CPCA data.
Regional Availability
Xiaomi Auto’s vehicle deliveries and new model launches are currently focused on the Chinese market, where the company has established a strong presence. Detailed monthly delivery figures and regional breakdowns are expected from the CPCA later this month.
Why this matters
Xiaomi Auto’s ability to maintain high monthly delivery volumes and launch new models like the Sky Nomad series will be critical for meeting its ambitious annual targets. The company’s performance also reflects broader trends in China’s competitive new energy vehicle market, where both growth and challenges are evident.
With the EREV segment experiencing a decline in sales, Xiaomi’s success with the Sky Nomad could influence its market position and future strategy.
What this means for buyers
Buyers interested in Xiaomi’s vehicles can expect the launch of the Sky Nomad series to bring new options in the EREV segment, particularly with the upcoming N90 Max and N70 Max models. Those considering a purchase may want to monitor the official launch and delivery ramp-up in September, as well as upcoming detailed sales data for a clearer picture of availability and demand.
