Xiaomi has revealed the production model of its SU7 Ultra, marking the company’s entry into the electric vehicle (EV) market with a bold display of technological prowess.
At a product launch event, Xiaomi’s founder, chairman, and CEO, Lei Jun, announced that the high-performance SU7 Ultra is now available for pre-order in China for 814,900 yuan ($114,200). The official release of the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra—priced at nearly four times the base SU7’s starting price of 215,900 yuan— is set for March 2025.

Xiaomi is accepting pre-orders for the SU7 Ultra, requiring a deposit of 10,000 yuan, which can be refunded at any time after the official launch. The company announced on Weibo that the model received 3,680 pre-orders just 10 minutes after pre-sales began.
The SU7 Ultra, described by Lei as Xiaomi’s “Dream Car” designed for himself and performance-driven enthusiasts, is the most powerful version of the company’s debut EV model which was launched in March earlier this year. Recently. the prototype of SU7 Ultra also conquered the Nurburgring with a final lap time of 6 minutes and 46.874 seconds, making it the fastest four-door car on the track.

The production version of the SU7 Ultra is powered by three motors, including two Xiaomi V8s motors, each capable of delivering 578 horsepower, and a V6s motor that delivers 392 horsepower. The powertrain delivers a combined power of up to 1,548 hp and enables the SU7 Ultra to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.98 seconds with a top speed of more than 350 km/h, making it the fastest four-door production car on the planet, according to Xiaomi. The model can accelerate from 0 to 200 km/h in 5.85 seconds and from 0 to 400 km/h in 9.23 seconds.

Built on an 800 V high-voltage platform, the vehicle supports a 5.2 C charging multiplier and can charge from 10% to 80% in just 11 minutes. The price of the production version of the SU7 Ultra seems to be largely in line with the expectations of some Wall Street analysts. In a research note earlier this month, Goldman Sachs projected that Xiaomi’s SU7 Ultra will sell about 4,000 units next year, with an average price of about 800,000 yuan, contributing 5% of its EV revenue.
