Xiaomi‘s first-ever vehicle, the SU7, has been quite the center of attention in the tech and vehicle space.
Being generously specced with all the tech that the automaker can chuck in as well as decent internals, it’s an electric vehicle from China that’s on the premium spectrum of the market.
However, it seems that the tech giant hasn’t had enough and wants to have the fastest four-door electric sedan around the Nurburgring Nordschleife, and it plans to do so with a spicier SU7 Ultra.


While the standard SU7 (in dual-motor Max form) is no slouch with two motors spitting out 673hp and 838Nm, this Ultra ups the ante by bringing that number up to three motors.
Xiaomi simply didn’t just add another motor, but instead used two more powerful motors called the Hyperengine V8s, alongside a V6s electric motor. The total power output is a mind-boggling 1,527hp.
It also uses an uprated high-performance battery pack from CATL that can discharge up to 1,330kW when needed.
Hard numbers include a 0-100km/h sprint of just 1.97 seconds and a 0-200km/h sprint of 5.96 seconds. The top speed is in excess of 350km/h.



It has track-ready bodywork that can produce up to 2,145kg of downforce, and AP Racing brakes with the regenerative braking from the motors aiding with stopping power.
More importantly, this full-carbon fiber-bodied beast weighs only 1,900kg, much lighter than the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT (Weissach Package, 2,234kg) or the Tesla Model S Plaid Track Package (2,162kg).


The company plans to bring the hot EV to the Nordschleife in October, where it plans to beat the Taycan Turbo GT‘s time of 7:07.55.
Only they will know how fast it is, with the overall production EV record belonging to the Rimac Nevera at 7:05.298, and the fastest EV time belonging to the Volkswagen ID.R at 6:05.336.
The founder of Xiaomi, Lei Jun, says that there will be a production run for the Ultra next year, so it looks like the age of the Chinese electric hypercar is upon us.
