Xiaomi's founder Lei Jun will host a New Year's Eve livestream featuring a live car teardown by engineers. The event continues his tradition of year-end engagement, with netizens suggesting the focus could be on the YU7 model.

Lei Jun, founder, chairman, and CEO of Xiaomi Group, announced via Weibo that he will host a New Year’s Eve livestream at 8:00 p.m. on December 31, 2025.

In addition to reviewing 2025 and outlining plans for 2026, the livestream will feature a standout segment in which engineers will perform a live car teardown. Inspired by online teardown videos, Lei described the event as a “hardcore way to ring in the New Year.”

While the specific vehicle was not confirmed, Lei referenced netizens’ suggestions to dismantle the YU7 model. The event continues Lei Jun’s personal tradition—he hosted a similar year-end fireside livestream on December 31 last year.
