Xiaomi, the tech giant, has made waves in the automotive industry with the unveiling of its SU7 Ultra. This isn’t just another electric car; it’s a full-blown assault on the performance car segment.
With a staggering 1,548 horsepower generated by three electric motors, the SU7 Ultra is a brute force of nature. Xiaomi is aiming high, targeting the Nurburgring lap record currently held by the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT. The SU7 Ultra boasts a claimed 0-100kph time of 1.97 seconds and a top speed exceeding 350kph.
Beyond raw power, the SU7 Ultra is a technological marvel. It features a massive 16.1-inch central control screen and a rotating screen. Xiaomi’s ecosystem integration allows seamless control of over 1000 smart home devices.
While the SU7 Ultra is still in the prototype stage, Xiaomi’s entry into the hypercar arena is a bold statement. It remains to be seen if the company can deliver on its ambitious performance claims, but the SU7 Ultra undoubtedly has the potential to disrupt the electric performance car market.
While the SU7 Ultra remains a prototype, Xiaomi’s entry into the hypercar arena is a bold statement. Last month, the company showcased the standard SU7 in India, hinting at a potential entry into the Indian market. Whether we’ll see the range-topping SU7 Ultra on Indian roads remains to be seen, but the possibility is undeniably exciting.
