Marking Xiaomi's first major update, the new SU7 upgrades powertrain, chassis, smart cockpit, and driver-assistance systems. The vehicle retains its classic proportions, stretching nearly 5 meters in length with a 3-meter wheelbase and a width approaching 2 meters. Buyers can choose from nine exterior colors, five interior schemes, and six wheel designs, while the exterior features a fresh grille and a new 4D millimeter-wave radar.
Under the hood, the entire lineup is equipped with the V6s Plus super motor, spinning up to 22,000 rpm. The Standard and Pro variants ride on a 752V silicon carbide platform, delivering CLTC ranges of 720 km and 902 km, respectively. The Max version steps up to an 897V silicon carbide architecture with an 835 km range, supporting 5.2C fast charging that adds 670 km of range in just 15 minutes.
On the tech front, the new SU7 comes standard with LiDAR, a driver-assistance system packing 700 TOPS of computing power, 4D millimeter-wave radar, and Xiaomi's HAD end-to-end driving function. The Xiaomi Surging smart cabin gets a simultaneous upgrade, too: the "Super Xiao Ai" voice system now covers 95% of vehicle controls, featuring emotion sensing, natural dialogue, fuzzy semantic navigation, and external voice recognition.
For the chassis, the new model employs Xiaomi's "Jiaolong" architecture. All trims feature front double-wishbone and rear five-link independent suspension, while the Pro and Max versions add closed double-chamber air springs and CDC variable dampers.
