It is the same Xiaomi which announced 300 000 SU7 vehicles sold in a day and 6 months later reported they are struggling to hit their sales targets? Just don’t believe anything a Chinese company say, divide it by at least 2. I have nothing against China, this is a cultural thing which you should be aware reading anything coming from the country.
Xiaomi EVs sales growing ~15% YoY, they just likely to miss their wildly ambitious ~33% YoY target. Or they might get close, they're 80% of target for H1, but PRC sells more cars in H2 (no Q1 new years, Q3+Q4 big sales).
But it's also the same xiaomi and sends gold samples and hacks gaming benchmarks, but IRL an off the shelf model is merely 80% better instead of 100%. It's no different than Samsung, Apple, Nvidia curious powerpoint axis. Whatever advertised, reality is slightly worse, but rarely substantially.
Yeah, well, I'm still waiting for 1 Apple Car ...
Why are you waiting for something that was never announced?
You never heard of project Titan? It even has a wikipedia page.

"around 5,000 employees were reported to be working on the project as of 2018."
Was it announced?
What difference does that make. It's the end result that counts.
This is a discussion of whether company announcements are true or not in various circumstances. It makes all the difference.
