Xiaomi SU7 Ultra becomes fastest 4-door car around Nurburgring

The super-saloon claims a 0-62 mph time of 1.97 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph.

Xiaomi unveiled its SU7 Ultra Prototype earlier this year. The Chinese electronics giant-turned-carmaker announced at the time of its unveiling that the SU7 Ultra will take on the Nurburgring lap record soon.

Now, staying true to its promise, Xiaomi has driven its SU7 Ultra prototype around the Nurburgring and, in the process, has managed to set a new record. The SU7 Ultra prototype is now the fastest four-door car around the famous track. The Xiaomi 4-door super saloon set a lap time of 6:46.87, beating the previous lap record of 7:07.55 set by the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT in August 2023.

The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype comes with three electric motors, producing a total output of 1,526 BHP. The super-saloon claims a 0-62 mph time of 1.97 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph.

The SU7 Ultra, though, is currently a prototype/pre-production vehicle. Hence, it remains to be seen whether or not the final production-spec SU7 Ultra can replicate the timing at a later stage.
