Fallacies
(85%)
The article contains several fallacies. The author makes an appeal to authority by stating that Xiaomi's SU7 will sell for a loss and that it is the best sedan under $60,000 yuan ($69,328 USD). This statement implies that Xiaomi has some sort of expertise or knowledge in determining what constitutes a good car. However, this claim cannot be supported by any evidence presented in the article. Additionally, there are several instances where the author uses inflammatory rhetoric to create a sense of urgency and excitement around Xiaomi's new electric car. For example, they describe orders exceeding 50,000 cars in just 27 minutes after sales started at midnight Beijing time. This type of language is meant to persuade readers rather than provide objective information about the product or market conditions.

Evelyn Cheng's article is biased towards Xiaomi and its new electric car SU7. The author uses language that dehumanizes Tesla by comparing the Model 3 to a 'sedan under $500,000'.

The article also uses language such as 'fiercely competitive electric car market' which may be interpreted as implying that competition is negative, rather than healthy.

Deception
(50%)
The article is misleading in several ways. Firstly, it states that Xiaomi has completed the feat of building an EV with advanced battery tech and lightning-fast charging capabilities for starting MSRPs that will turn some heads. However, this statement is not entirely accurate as there are other companies like Tesla who have been producing EVs for much longer and have more advanced technology than Xiaomi's SU7. Secondly, the article states that Xiaomi has long been established as a trusted brand in China manufacturing electronics based on an Internet of Things (IoT) platform. However, this statement is not entirely accurate as there are many other companies like Huawei and Oppo who have also been producing electronic devices for much longer than Xiaomi. Thirdly, the article states that Xiaomi has landed on EVs as a booming yet saturated market in China. However, this statement is not entirely accurate as there are several established players in the Chinese EV market like BYD and CATL who have been producing electric vehicles for much longer than Xiaomi.
