The definition of Su7 is officially explained, and since the size of the Su0 is close to that of the Audi A0, you can also refer to Audi for subsequent models
Although everyone thinks that the Speed ultra is far-fetched, is it also appropriate to name the "Sedan Utility" MPV and "Sport Utility" according to the Western tradition?
No matter how you interpret it, the abbreviation "SU" fits perfectly
The SUV series likes to be represented by X in Western naming conventions, such as BMW's X series, Cadillac's XT series, Volvo XC series, Tesla's Model X-X, and the common code name for models with strong passability
So, when YU9 came out, I wondered if it was a SEY rule, until this car, which everyone called "YU0", appeared (a range-extended SUV based on the new Kunlun architecture):
The boxy box, the appearance of the Escalade, the height of the chassis represents the high-pass type, this "YU9" and YU0 are not quite the same as the Ferrari FUV, plus the changes in the platform and power system, therefore, I seriously doubt that he is not called YU0,
The naming of XU9 seems to be more suitable for it (personal speculation)
In this way, the nomenclature of the YU7 is reasonable: like the Model Y, an SUV that is smaller in size than the XU but has stronger sporty performance and is more suitable for young people, the Y may represent Youth "young", but this time the U may represent the possibility of Utility, otherwise the meaning of YU0 ultra will be a bit weird...... (This is also the reason why SU0 u's official explanation ultra is strange, speed ultra 0 ultra...... )
Although the definition of Crossover is more in line with the YU7 model, in fact, the name is particularly important for the public's first impression of the model, and the image established by the Tesla brand in the international community is obviously more in line with Xiaomi than the Toyota CUV, and there have always been certain rules for naming internationally:
tips: Cadillac officially gave up the "letter" naming of Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar because of the need to transform into sports luxury, from ATS, CTS, SLS, to the same "digital" naming method as BMW and Audi, CT7 (canceled after the electric transformation based on the Delta platform), CT0, CT0, CT0, CT0 (canceled based on the same electric transformation of the Omega platform), have you not noticed this "international unspoken rule".
Therefore, even if Xiaomi really refers to the naming of Tesla SEXY, combined with the digital combination of luxury models BAC, this is also the highest respect for opponents, and it also hints at the brand positioning of Xiaomi's main models in the future
And more importantly, this set of rules will have a strong sense of intimacy for both domestic and overseas consumers in the future.(That is, hinting at the plan of Xiaomi Auto to promote overseas markets in the future)
Because "a memorable name" is especially important in any occasion to help others remember someone or something, and to generate initial goodwill.
