Xiaomi SU7 Ultra: The High-Performance Electric Sedan Arrives in Showrooms
The electric vehicle market is heating up, and the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra is among the most exciting new entrants. After months of anticipation, Xiaomi’s high-performance, track-focused EV has officially arrived in showrooms across China—days ahead of its market launch. With customer deliveries set to begin in March, enthusiasts can now get an early look at Xiaomi’s fastest electric sedan yet.
Showroom Debut Across China
Xiaomi confirmed the SU7 Ultra showroom rollout on its official Weibo page. The performance EV is now on display in 112 stores across 42 cities, making it widely accessible despite its premium price tag. A first look at the car inside Xiaomi’s Beijing factory also confirms that mass production is already underway, ensuring timely deliveries for early buyers.
Presales Success and Pricing
Presales for the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra opened on October 29 at a price of RMB 814,900 (around $113,300). Interest was immediate and overwhelming—3,680 orders were placed within 10 minutes of the announcement. This strong demand underscores Xiaomi’s growing credibility in the EV performance segment.
Performance-Driven Exterior Design
The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra sets itself apart from the standard SU7 with a more aggressive and aerodynamic design. Key upgrades include:
A redesigned front bumper with a sharper spoiler
Oversized high-performance brakes
A signature yellow body color featuring bold “Ultra” racing stripes
A larger fixed rear spoiler
Slightly widened body for improved stability
These enhancements emphasize speed, control, and track readiness.
1,526 HP Triple-Motor Powertrain
At the heart of the SU7 Ultra is a cutting-edge triple-motor setup producing:
1,526 horsepower
1,770 Nm of torque
This makes it one of the most powerful electric sedans in the world. The performance numbers are staggering:
0–62 mph in just 1.98 seconds
Top speed of 217 mph
With specs like these, the SU7 Ultra positions itself against performance EVs such as the Tesla Model S Plaid, Lucid Air Sapphire, and Zeekr 001 FR.
Record-Breaking Carbon Ceramic Brakes
To safely manage its immense power, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra is equipped with the largest carbon ceramic brake discs ever fitted to a sports car. These brakes can handle temperatures above 1,300°C and deliver outstanding stopping performance:
30.8 meters from 62 mph to zero
This gives the EV exceptional control, especially during track sessions or high-speed driving.
Next-Gen Qilin II Battery and Fast Charging
Powering the beast is a 93.7 kWh CATL Qilin II battery pack. Charging capabilities are equally impressive:
5.2C ultra-fast DC charging
10% to 80% charge in just 11 minutes
On a full charge, the CLTC range reaches 385 miles. While real-world and track conditions may reduce this figure, the charging speed makes up for any range anxiety.
A Step Beyond the Standard SU7
While the regular Xiaomi SU7 focuses on comfort and daily commuting, the SU7 Ultra pushes boundaries by offering race-grade brakes, extreme power, and track-focused aerodynamics. It’s built for drivers who want more than efficiency—they want adrenaline.
Waiting times for the Ultra variant are expected to lengthen as demand rises closer to its March delivery window.
The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra is a bold statement from Xiaomi, proving the company is serious about competing with established performance EVs. With its powerful triple-motor system, advanced braking technology, and lightning-fast charging, it stands as a genuine rival to top-tier electric super sedans.
If the EV world ever needed a wake-up call, this is it.
