Xiaomi SU7 Ultra – Design and Aerodynamics

Xiaomi SU7 Ultra builds on the standard SU7 sedan’s design with a stronger focus on aerodynamics. It features sportier bumpers, a prominent 1.56-meter-wide rear spoiler and a broader body.

These changes, along with an active rear diffuser, give it a claimed downforce of 265 kilograms. The car also rides on 21-inch wheels fitted with Pirelli P Zero 5 tyres

This setup allows the SU7 Ultra to go from 0 to 100 km/h in just 1.98 seconds, hit 200 km/h in 5.86 seconds and reach a top speed of 350 km/h.

It also boasts a quarter-mile time of 9.23 seconds and includes an Asil-D torque vectoring system for enhanced handling.

Xiaomi SU7 Ultra – Braking System and Competition

For braking, Xiaomi has equipped the SU7 Ultra with the largest carbon ceramic brake discs ever on a production car.

The front discs measure 430 mm x 40 mm, while the rear discs are 410 mm x 32 mm. These brakes, paired with six-piston front and four-piston rear Akebono callipers, can withstand temperatures over 1,300°C and bring the car from 100 km/h to a stop in just 30.8 meters.

Though the SU7 Ultra prototype set a record lap time at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, the production version might be slightly slower due to added weight.

The prototype had a lightweight carbon fibre body, giving it a curb weight of 1,900 kg.
