Xiaomi SU7 Ultra’s Record Run
The Chinese tech giant took its Xiaomi SUV 7 Ultra for a spin at the SIC, where it clocked in an impressive lap time of 2:09.94. This was a new record for production cars on this track, across different power types. The SUV 7 Ultra EV beat out the previous title holder which was the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT. For those unaware, the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT managed to complete the 5.45km (3.39 miles) track in 2:11.28.
In a video recording shared by Xiaomi (Via Carscoops), the SU7 Ultra can be seen reaching 323 km/h (201mph) on the straight stretch of the track. To recall, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra could make its global showcase at the upcoming MWC 2025 event. The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra electric sedan is equipped with a triple motor setup (V8s + V8s + V6s), delivering an impressive 1,548 horsepower.

The world’s first CATL Kirin II powers this model, allowing for exceptional power delivery. This record run also backs Xiaomi’s claims of the SU7 Ultra featuring a track optimized braking system that can bring the car to a complete from 100 km/h in just 25 meters.
