However, to take the next significant step towards official production, Xiaomi must fulfill several crucial prerequisites. Chief among them is obtaining the coveted National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) license. Recently, Xiaomi secured this crucial license, marking a pivotal moment in its journey. With the NDRC certificate in hand, Xiaomi is poised to commence the production of their electric cars on a grand scale.
