Xiaomi just dropped a bombshell in the EV world! 🔥 On Tuesday, the tech giant unveiled the SU7 Ultra, a souped-up version of its electric sports car that's set to give Tesla and Porsche a run for their money.
Xiaomi's CEO, Lei Jun, took to a live-streamed event (lasting over three hours, by the way 😲) to showcase this beast of a machine. Priced at a cool $114,000, the SU7 Ultra isn't just about luxury—it's about breaking records. Lei proudly announced, \"This is the world's fastest four-door mass-produced car currently available.\" Talk about ambition!
In a head-to-head comparison, the SU7 Ultra outperforms the Porsche Taycan Turbo in both acceleration and top speed. And guess what? It's even faster than Tesla's Model S Plaid! While Tesla still holds a slight edge in driving range (672 km versus Xiaomi's 630 km), the SU7 Ultra is all about that need for speed. 🏎️💨
So why build such a powerful machine? Lei Jun puts it simply: \"We're building a dream car.\" And it seems that dream is shared by many. Within just 10 minutes of its debut, over 3,600 orders were placed! 😮
The SU7 Ultra features carbon-fiber components, performance ceramic brakes, and sleek aerodynamic styling. It's not just fast; it's a head-turner too. Xiaomi aims to deliver 120,000 SU7 vehicles by the end of the year, with the first Ultra models hitting the streets in March.
But that's not all! During the event, Xiaomi also unveiled its flagship Xiaomi 15 smartphone series, starting at $630. Looks like Xiaomi is gearing up to dominate both our pockets and the roads!
Are you ready to see Xiaomi take on the big leagues? With the SU7 Ultra, the race is officially on! 🚗💨
