Xiaomi Skynomad N90 Max Explorer Edition Unveiled – An SUV with a Rooftop Living Module

Xiaomi has launched the massive Skynomad N90 Max hybrid crossover, along with its most unusual and exclusive model, the Explorer Edition. The latter is aimed at lovers of comfortable camping and travel. For this purpose, it comes factory-equipped with a fully functional loft-style living module with underfloor heating.

Instead of using an additional roof tent, Xiaomi integrated an electric retractable roof directly into the body. When closed, the module increases the overall height of the SUV by 100 mm, allowing the vehicle to maintain a drag coefficient of 0.245.

When needed, the roof folds down, transforming the car's interior into a two-level space with a maximum ceiling height of 2.29 meters. The upper portion of the cabin occupies approximately two square meters, can support up to 200 kg, and includes its own climate control system, lighting, and charging ports.

Compared to the base seven-seat Skynomad N90 Max, the Explorer Edition seats five. The second row of seats folds electrically, creating a flat surface measuring 1.87 x 1.24 meters. The cabin floor is finished in wood-grain aluminum and heated to 38°C.

Both versions of the SUV are built around the same extended-range powertrain. It includes an all-wheel drive system with two 310 kW electric motors, a triple 76 kWh lithium-ion battery, and a 60-liter fuel tank.

According to Xiaomi, the standard model offers an all-electric range of 464 km (CLTC) and a combined range of up to 1,705 km. The Explorer Edition's range drops to 1,688 km (combined). Both models accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds and use a chassis with air suspension and continuously variable dampers.

The Xiaomi HyperOS operating system supports up to six displays, including a head-up display, a central screen, and rear entertainment screens. The interior also features a 9-liter compressor refrigerator and a 25-speaker audio system. The car also features a driver assistance system that utilizes a suite of sensors, including front and rear LiDAR.

The Xiaomi Skynomad N90 Max and Explorer Edition are currently available for pre-order. Shipments are expected between November and December 2026. The series is available in seven colors: burgundy, green, blue, gray, khaki, white, and black.
