Xiaomi has created a major buzz in the automotive world with the launch of its electric SU7, which features an attractive sporty design and impressive performance, along with a competitive price starting at $30,000, making it highly successful in the Chinese market.
Xiaomi SU7 Ultra Flagship to Compete with Tesla and Lucid
Xiaomi announced the development of the flagship SU7 Ultra, which broke the speed record for four-door sedans at Germany's Nürburgring track. It completed the circuit in just 6:46 minutes, driven by famous British driver David Pittard, who won the 2023 Nürburgring 24-hour endurance championship.
The car outperformed the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT by more than 20 seconds, an impressive achievement, especially since it was accomplished in just one attempt.
Notably, the record-breaking car was a test version, but Xiaomi announced a production model for public roads that will carry most of the specifications and mechanical components of the test version, but with less aggressive performance.

• Despite its powerful performance, the car supports a total range of up to 630 kilometers per charge, though real-world testing is still needed to verify these figures.
