Unveiled in 2024, the SU7 Ultra is a more performance-focused version of the standard SU7, which debuted in December 2023. The “SU” in its name stands for “Speed Ultra,” while it stands out with a more aggressive aerodynamic package, featuring a prominent front splitter, redesigned air vents and fenders, dual bonnet vents, side skirts, a large rear wing, and a substantial rear diffuser.
The SU7 Ultra is powered by three electric motors developed entirely in-house by Xiaomi. These include two V8s-series motors producing 570 bhp and 635 Nm each, and a V6s-series motor delivering 387 bhp. The combined output of the three motors is rated to be 1,527 bhp.
