AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/30 Report--

On October 29th, Lei Jun, founder and chairman of Xiaomi Company, announced that Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype car made its debut in Niubei, with an officially certified lap time of 6 minutes 46.874 seconds, making it the fastest four-door car in the world. Lei Jun said: "this is a miracle, but also a new starting point."

At the same time, on Weibo, Xiaomi also detailed the "bumpy experiences" of its first trip to New Zealand, including sudden rain and negotiations with competitors. Xiaomi said that Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype car for the first time in New Zealand, this is a miracle, but also a new starting point. Lei Jun also posted: "Xiaomi, as a newcomer in the automobile industry, dared to shine its sword and fight in New North for the first time, which confirmed Xiaomi's great determination and courage to build a car!"

The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype is currently the fastest four-door model in North New York. As a reference, Ulai EP9 is the fastest production electric car in New North, with a score of 6 minutes 45.9 seconds in May 2017. at present, the fastest electric car in New North is Volkswagen ID.R (prototype), with a performance of 6: 05 seconds 336; currently, the fastest production car is Mercedes-AMG ONE, which achieves 6 minutes 29 seconds; and the fastest four-door tram is Porsche Taycan Turbo GT, with a time of 7 minutes 07.55 seconds. The mass-produced four-door model is Jaguar XE SV Project 8, which firmly sits on the throne of the fastest mass-produced four-door car in the world with a time of 7 minutes and 18 seconds. Xiaomi said that after the mass production car is on the market, we will continue to fight in New North!

It is understood that around the 9th of this month, the originally planned Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype will challenge the New North Circle, but the brush ring of the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype has been shelved because of intermittent rain. In the end, the Xiaomi car still failed to realize its dream of competing in the New North Speedway. Lei Jun responded publicly on Weibo many times, full of helplessness and disappointment.

It is understood that the Newborough Green North Ring Road (hereinafter referred to as "New North") was completed in 1927 and is recognized as one of the oldest, most authoritative and most difficult tracks in the world. at the same time, it is also the track with the longest single lap, the most corners and the largest height difference in the world, which is known as "the highest hall for global automakers to test performance cars". Therefore, for the Xiaomi car to fight in New North, the industry and fans have great expectations, whether the excellent performance of the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype car can break the record. However, the weather was not good, and continuous rainy days made it impossible for Xiaomi car to show its best condition on the Niubei racetrack. In the end, Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype car was shelved in Niubei Raceway, but then it was reported that Xiaomi SU7 Ultra prototype car began to brush circles on the Niubei racetrack again, and it was BYD that set aside part of the booking time in Niubei for Xiaomi to use. It is also reported that BYD coordinated the corresponding time to Lamborghini with Xiaomi, but at least for now, BYD has contributed a lot to Lamborghini.

The core technical capabilities of Xiaomi SU7 Ultra production version and Xiaomi SU7 Ultra Prototype (referred to as "PT version") are exactly the same, including three-motor system, track version battery, thermal management system and so on. The difference is that the PT version is a track prototype built by Xiaomi's pure electric architecture, which is made entirely for the track and cannot be legally on the road, while the mass production version can hit the road legally in addition to the peak speed track experience. Tonight, Xiaomi will hold the Xiaomi 15 series and Xiaomi OS 2 new product conference at the Beijing Shougang International Convention and Exhibition Center. The mass production version of Xiaomi SU7 Ultra will also be released at the same time, and the final price is expected to be announced.
