Xiaomi’s first car likely to come in 2024, possibly ahead of Apple Car launch in 2025

Xiaomi's first car is on track for 2024 launch which means it will arrive before Apple's self-driving car that is scheduled for 2025.

Xiaomi is well on track to launch its first car and may actually introduce it before Apple's self-driven car. The Chinese smartphone maker announced its first electric car earlier this year. It has already registered a company for the same and initially plan to launch the first car by 2026. Now, Xiaomi founder and CEO, Lei Jun has confirmed on social media that the first Xiaomi car will launch in 2024. That’s almost two years before the initial plan.

This also means that Xiaomi’s first car will launch before Apple’s planned car. Apple has been working on a self-driving car for the past few years now and has lately accelerated the development process. Apple Watch software executive Kevin Lynch is now overseeing the process and is pushing for a car with a full self-driving system in the first version.
