Founder and CEO Lei Jun on Thursday announced official pricing for the new-generation smart sedan, with the standard edition starting at 219,900 yuan (US$31,900) and the pro and max variants set at 249,900 yuan and 303,900 yuan, respectively.
The figures are 10,000 yuan lower than pre-sale estimates, but 4,000 yuan higher than the first-generation SU7, which launched in March 2024 at 215,900 yuan.
Citibank described the pricing as fair and suggested the model’s mature monthly run-rate could return to 270,000 units, according to a note on Thursday.
“When compared with competing brands in the same price range, it is roughly on par or slightly better than peers, without very obvious advantages beyond the average level,” said Citi analyst Kyna Wong. “We believe it will marginally take some of the Tesla Model 3, Zeekr 007 and Xpeng P7 market share.”
