Xiaomi has entered the camper market with the SkyNomad N90, a large family vehicle that signals a broader shift in the company’s automotive ambitions. After the electric SU7 sedan and YU7 SUV, the N90 takes Xiaomi’s lineup into range-extender vehicles. It is also part of the Pengcheng family, which includes N70 variants. Its boxy design supports a configurable cabin for family transport that can double as a mobile workspace or temporary living space.
Inside, Xiaomi’s engineers have prioritized flexibility. The front seats rotate 180 degrees, turning the cabin into a meeting space, with an integrated folding table that also suits café-style use or family seating. The second and third rows can be reconfigured for work or group relaxation, including on longer journeys. This layout puts the N90 in the large family-vehicle segment, while the camper-oriented version adds a dedicated sleeping area above the basic cabin.
The camper configuration uses an electrically operated pop-up roof to create an upper sleeping level. Automotive publication Frandroid reports that the raised cabin reaches 2.294 meters in height and that the sleeping platform measures 2.11 by 0.985 meters, with a stated load capacity of 200 kilograms. The upper space has side windows and charging outlets; it is insulated from the basic cabin, with climate-air vents and an integrated mattress. The setup adds sleeping capacity without a trailer.
The N90 Studio’s reported Chinese-market specification pairs a 76 kWh battery with a 60-liter fuel tank. In this range-extender system, the combustion engine generates electricity rather than directly driving the wheels. Frandroid also reported a Shanghai-Beijing demonstration of about 1,230 kilometers with four occupants and 50 kilograms of luggage. The vehicle averaged 104 km/h and covered 323.6 kilometers electrically before displaying 54 kilometers of remaining electric range. The publication lists fuel consumption of about 6.26 L/100 km under the WLTP cycle. Those figures describe a particular N90 Studio configuration and test context; the model’s stated 370-kilometer pure-electric range is a separate claimed figure.
Regional specifications vary. UAE market coverage describes a SkyNomad configuration with a 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine and a 52 kWh battery, compared with the 76 kWh reported for the Chinese N90 Studio. The two battery capacities so apply to different market or model configurations. UAE listings identify four trims, with the N70 Pro at AED 209,900 and N70 Max at AED 239,900. The N90 Max is listed at AED 249,900, while the N90 Studio is AED 289,900. The N90 Studio is listed with 422 hp and all-wheel lead; it has a 0-100 km/h time of 5.9 seconds and a claimed combined range of up to 1,705 kilometers. Its expected UAE availability is December 2026 through Gargash Prime Automotive.
Digital integration is another part of Xiaomi’s approach. The living space is designed to work with the brand’s mobile devices and smart-home systems, alongside its cloud services. Climate control and ambient lighting can be managed through the basic touchscreen or voice commands, as can the pop-up roof. The setup reflects Xiaomi’s effort to bring its connected-device environment into the vehicle cabin.
The SkyNomad N90 arrives as Chinese manufacturers intensify competition in electrified SUVs and camper-focused vehicles. Geely’s recent launch of the Galaxy Cruiser 700, a plug-in hybrid SUV with a 70 kWh battery and more than 1,100 horsepower, highlights the pace of development in the sector. More details on this trend can be found in the article on Geely’s bold entry into the electrified SUV market.
Xiaomi’s move extends its automotive strategy beyond battery-electric sedans and SUVs into range-extender vehicles, along with interiors designed for flexible travel. The SkyNomad N90 combines a pop-up sleeping level with configurable seating, while its powertrain options vary by market. Its commercial rollout and specifications will differ by region; UAE listings put the N90 Studio’s planned arrival in December 2026.
