Xiaomi SU7 OTA 1.17 Update Adds Frame Parking, Front/Rear Parking Assist

On August 8, Xiaomi Auto rolled out the OTA 1.17 update to all variants of the YU7, introducing multiple enhancements to advanced driver assistance and intelligent cockpit features. **Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) Updates:** - **Framed Parking Assist**: Users can now drag a parking frame on the central display to define a target parking spot (not applicable on uneven surfaces such as potholes, riverbanks, steps, or areas with suspended obstacles). - **Front-In Parking Assist**: A new one-tap toggle on the parking interface allows users to switch between front-in and rear-in parking modes, supporting perpendicular and angled parking spots (horizontal spots not yet supported). Remote parking requires the latest version of the Xiaomi Auto app. - **Rear-Out Parking Assist**: When the vehicle’s front end is positioned inside the parking space, users can choose to exit left or right from the rear—also compatible with perpendicular and angled spots (not available for horizontal spots or during Search-and-Park scenarios). Remote operation likewise requires the updated app. Additional ADAS improvements include: - Refined acceleration/deceleration control logic for smoother, more comfortable driving. - Enhanced lane selection capability ahead of intersections in City NOA (Navigation on Autopilot). - Optimized speed control and lane selection logic for high-curvature highway curves under Highway NOA, reducing unnecessary lane changes. - **Forward Reversing Collision Alert**: While driving slowly in Drive (D) gear, if a forward-facing vehicle is detected reversing toward the YU7 with collision risk, the system issues an alert and flashes high/low beams (requires Forward Collision Warning enabled). - Improved performance of Forward Collision Warning in low-visibility conditions (e.g., rain/fog) via enhanced 4D mmWave radar perception. **Intelligent Cockpit Enhancements:** - Removed the toggle for "Super XiaoAI Large Model Mode"—now enabled by default. - Added **Soda Music** app to the in-car app store, with support for adding to the driving desktop. - Upgraded **Super Toy Box** pet feature: placing the magnetic pet toy on the left wireless charging pad while in Park (P) triggers exclusive animations synced with ambient lighting. - **Zen Mode** now includes dynamic Xiaomi Imaging effects and optimized watermarking, activating automatically by default. - Adjusted parking-space lighting settings: low beams and position lights now automatically turn off when entering Nap/Camping/Parked Power modes and do not revert upon exit. **Other Updates:** - **Xiaomi Auto App** adds charging statistics, allowing users to view charging volume and duration by day/month/year, plus electricity cost estimates based on default or custom rates. - New customizable child seat position reminder in seat settings. - **Zero-Gravity Seats** now require double confirmation via physical buttons under specific conditions (e.g., corresponding door open, child seat activated, rear child lock/window lock engaged, or rear seatbelts fastened). - App now supports remote activation of rapid cooling/heating. - The 20kW home DC charger gains **vehicle-initiated scheduled charging** and **smart resume charging**, automatically resuming interrupted sessions and enabling scheduling directly from the vehicle. - Enhanced maintenance tracking with expanded monitoring items and proactive notifications. - Rear-seat screen music list page now features an opening animation. - Automatic rear fog light activation in rainy conditions. - Steering wheel misalignment alert now triggers when shifting from P to D while stationary with a large uncorrected steering angle. - Continuous buzzer alerts during tailgate opening/closing. - **Zero-Gravity Seats** (YU7 Long Range, YU7 Pro/Max) gain anti-pinch rollback: upon detection, the seat reverses 10% of travel distance to relieve pressure. - Optimized constant-power electric drive performance in Comfort mode: vehicles (YU7 Standard/Long Range) deliver stronger power above 60 km/h. - Refined seat position adjustment logic (YU7 Standard and GT variants).
