Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi said on Sunday that it delivered more than 50,000 electric vehicles in October, marking its highest monthly total of 2026 as it increases production to meet its annual target.
The company’s deliveries reached approximately 336,000 vehicles during the first 10 months of the year. Monthly deliveries exceeded 30,000 units in August before rising above 40,000 in September and surpassing 50,000 in October.
Annual Target
Xiaomi aims to deliver 550,000 vehicles in 2026. Its deliveries from January through October accounted for approximately 61% of that target, leaving the company with around 214,000 vehicles to deliver over the final two months of the year.
The October figures reflect the company’s continued production ramp-up as it seeks to strengthen its position in China’s competitive electric vehicle market.
BYD Reports Growth
Other Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers also reported strong delivery figures in October.
BYD sold 490,168 new energy vehicles (NEVs) during the month, an increase of 10.97% compared with October last year and 5.74% from September, according to figures cited in industry reports.
The results indicate continued growth in the company’s new energy vehicle sales, which include battery-electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
