Xiaomi's SU7 Ultra Prototype is the fastest four-door car to complete a lap of the renowned German racecourse. It can fly from rest to 100 km/h in 1.97 seconds and from 0 to 200 in 5.96 seconds. The downforce of the SU7Ultra Prototype is more than 2,000 kg.The assertions made by company executives and Chinese automakers should not be disregarded. Our objective is to rank among the top five automakers worldwide. and we need guts to go up against the biggest automakers in the world,” Lei Jun, the founder, chairman, and CEO of Xiaomi, stated. Setting a new Nurburgring lap record for four-door cars with any kind of propulsion was one aspect of that challenge, as we detailed here. And the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra Prototype has accomplished just that.
On the Nürburgring Nordschleife, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra Prototype was driven to a lap time of 6 minutes 46,874 seconds. Consequently, it is currently the fastest four-door car to complete a lap of the renowned German racecourse. A Porsche Taycan Turbo GT pre-production prototype set a lap time of 7 minutes 07,55 seconds in January of this year. The SU7 Ultra Prototype is much faster as a result.
This is the first of Xiaomi’s two-part plan. Using a prototype car to challenge the non-production lap records at the Nürburgring in October 2024 is the first phase of Xiaomi EV’s challenge plan. The second phase will use a production model to formally target the production car lap records at the Nürburgring in 2025.
There is a lot of power in the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra Prototype. The aggregate power of its three electric motors is 1,139kW. It can therefore fly from rest to 100 km/h in 1.97 seconds and from 0 to 200 in 5.96 seconds. 350 km/h is stated as its top speed.
To set a respectable time at the ‘Ring, however, power alone is insufficient. The downforce of the SU7 Ultra Prototype is more than 2,000 kg. With the exception of the boot lid, almost every panel on the SU7 Ultra’s body is composed of carbon fibre. Additionally, the front axle is equipped with AP Racing six-pot callipers. It can produce well over 2Gs of retardation force when used in tandem with the e-motors’ regen system.
Xiaomi claims that there is still more to come, but the SU7 Ultra Prototype has more promise than this. In order to guarantee outstanding performance and dependability, Xiaomi EV is committed to pushing the boundaries of electric vehicle technology. These advancements will be put through a rigorous testing and optimisation process on the storied Nürburgring track.
