Design and Style

With a 5115mm length, 1970mm width, 1465mm height and 3000mm wheelbase, the body is longer, lower, and presents a more aggressive, battle-ready stance.
The front of the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra features a large front splitter and air dam, as well as “U-shaped” air curtains to effectively increase the down force of the front of the car.
The enlarged air intake grille opening can increase the heat dissipation area by 10%.
An active rear diffuser with two-speed adaptive adjustment has been added, which balances wind resistance and down force, and provides energy efficiency for daily driving.
Additionally, a new carbon fiber fixed rear spoiler (1560mm wingspan, 240mm chord length) delivers considerable down force at high speeds.

The total power output is 1,548hp, which is 440hp more than the Taycan Turbo GT.
According to Xiaomi, with all the power add-ons, the SU7 can accelerate from 100kph in 1.97 seconds and 0-300kph in 15.07 seconds, with a top speed of over 350kph.
Stopping power comes from upgraded AP Racing brakes and sticky Pirelli P Zero tyres, which bring the 100kph to 0 braking distance down to just 25 meters.
