Xiaomi released its first EV model, SU -7 in early 2024. By the end of the year, guests of foreign diplomats, investors, and other Chinese companies had already begun arriving at the company’s factory to take part in the company’s factory in Beijing, but by the beginning of 2025, the company did not make a standard experience for the public. First, the Zumomi offer offer.
But the rotation proved to be incredibly popular, and Xumi quickly began scheduling more slots. In July, the company said it would offer a tour every week and most of the weekend, which would include more than 1,100 visitors. According to the Xumi app, when the July registration opened, however, more than 27,000 applications were flooded overnight.
Enough enough to make a place safe will expect people to first be taken to an exhibition hall to find out about the remarkable innovations in Xumi’s electric cars. The visitors then go to a shuttle, and three of the six out of six to put workers and robots into the production lines.
After that, they can test a model on a rescue, a model, Xumi SU -7, where a trained race driver shows how fast the car can be faster in just a few seconds. “Immediately with the kick, it really looks great at a speed,” Xiao told the wired. Recently, Xiaomi also started selling cheap food in factory and gifts to complete the experience.
Another visitors have noted that if it comes to the robot, the shuttle will be temporarily stopped, which has been strictly planned to do its work on the schedule of time and thus it is less flexible than the human worker. Yuvanan recalled that after the end of the tour, his daughter remarked: “I need to get more stern education, otherwise I will not get any job in the future. These robots are doing all the work.”
Xiaomi’s factory is an excellent example of how Chinese companies are developing rapidly from manufacturing of labor -related manufacturing thanks to new developments in robotics and artificial intelligence. In recent years, the Chinese government has been promoting the idea of ”lights out factories” that does not require human labor, that is, machines can work in the dark without the need to turn on the light. Companies that have been able to achieve this high level automation from Foxkin to domestic equipment giants, have turned their factories into marketing opportunities, and have invited humans to surprise technology rather than working.
Another leading EV -maker in China, Novo, has been displaying its most automatic factories since the end of 2023. In 2024, more than 130,000 people visited the factory, where according to a statement sent by the company, some production lines like body shop have received 100 % automation. Zhang says that when his latest tour group visited New Factory in Haifi city last month, the participants managed to see three of the four production lines. (However, the car painting process was excluded from public visits.)
