Xiaomi SU7 Ultra electric sedans with three electric motors and a peak power output of 1,138 kW (1,526 hp) were spotted at the brand’s Beijing factory.
It seems the automaker has started the mass production of this high-performance model, as its sales launch and deliveries are scheduled for March.
Previously, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra became the fastest four-door car.
As mentioned, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra is a high-performance variant of the regular Xiaomi SU7.
It started presales on October 29 with a price tag of 814,900 yuan (113,200 USD).
Despite the high price of this sedan, it got 3,680 orders in just 10 minutes after the presentation had ended.
The deliveries of this model are scheduled for next month.
However, a bunch of Xiaomi SU7 Ultra was seen at the Beijing plant in early February. It seems Xiaomi is getting ready to sell these 1,500-hp beasts as hotcakes.
It is worth noting that Xiaomi began mass-producing the regular variant of the SU7 in February last year.
Xiaomi’s Beijing plant still can’t satisfy the demand for the regular SU7. As a result, the waiting time for the Xiaomi SU7 after placing an order is 21 – 29 weeks (around 5 – 7 months).
It has three electric motors with a combined peak power of 1,138 kW (1,526 hp) and a maximum torque of 1,770 Nm.
Its 0 – 100 km/h acceleration time is 1.98 seconds.
The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra offers the largest carbon ceramic brake discs on a sports car to date, with Akebono 6-piston calipers in the front and 4-piston calipers in the rear. Those carbon ceramic brakes can handle a maximum temperature of over 1,300 degrees Celsius.
The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra adopts the CATL-made 93.7 kWh ternary NMC battery with a 5.2C DC charging system. This means that its charging power is about five times the battery capacity or around 490 kW. It charges 10-80% in 11 minutes. Under CLTC conditions, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra’s range is 620 km.
