The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra flagship performance EV has been officially added to the racing simulation game Gran Turismo 7, becoming the first Chinese car to be featured in in the long-running franchise.
As a benchmark in racing simulations, the Gran Turismo series is globally recognized for its hyper-realistic driving experience and stringent vehicle selection criteria, with a historical focus on classic performance models from established global brands.
The collaboration between Xiaomi and Polyphony Digital was officially announced on June 7, 2025. With its exceptional performance and technological innovation, Xiaomi SU7 Ultra represents a new addition to the Gran Turismo series’ carefully curated vehicle lineup, drawing attention from players and automotive enthusiasts worldwide.
Kazunori Yamauchi, Producer of the Gran Turismo series, test-drove Xiaomi SU7 Ultra on multiple occasions at locations including Beijing, the Nürburgring Nordschleife, and Tsukuba Circuit, engaging in in-depth exchanges with Xiaomi EV executives and engineering teams. To faithfully recreate the authentic experience of Xiaomi SU7 Ultra for global players, both teams dedicated themselves to building a highly precise digital vehicle model in the game. Through professional technical processes, they ensure the virtual car maintains extreme consistency with its physical model. To achieve this, Xiaomi EV’s vehicle dynamics performance team specifically traveled to Polyphony Digital’s studio in Fukuoka to participate in the final driving experience validation, ensuring the in-game rendition accurately captures the dynamics of Xiaomi SU7 Ultra.
Xiaomi SU7 Ultra is powered by an in-house developed Dual V8s + V6s Xiaomi Hyper Tri-Motor system, delivering a combined maximum output of 1,548 horsepower and 1,770 N·m of torque. Coupled with an 800V high-voltage platform, it achieves supercar-level acceleration from 0-100 km/h in 1.98 seconds (without one-foot rollout).
The vehicle features a double-wishbone front suspension, a five-link rear suspension, and dual-chamber air springs paired with high-performance adaptive dampers, striking a balance between ultimate handling and ride comfort. It offers a CLTC range of 630 km and supports fast charging from 10% to 80% in just 11 minutes, achieving a perfect equilibrium between performance and practicality.
As the high-performance flagship of Xiaomi EV, the production version of Xiaomi SU7 Ultra first challenged the Nürburgring Nordschleife on April 1, 2025. Equipped with the optional Track Package, Xiaomi SU7 Ultra set a blistering lap time of 7:04.957, decisively breaking the record for electric executive vehicles on the Nürburgring Nordschleife. This milestone achievement stems from a relentless pursuit of track performance, enabled by a top-tier electric powertrain system, chassis torque vectoring control, and advanced aerodynamic design.
Previously, Xiaomi Group Founder, Chairman, and CEO Lei Jun expressed his great pleasure that Xiaomi SU7 Ultra was selected for inclusion in Gran Turismo 7, looking forward to allowing more Gran Turismo 7 players and automotive culture enthusiasts to appreciate the charm of high-performance smart vehicles from Xiaomi EV.
In 2025, Xiaomi SU7 Ultra was also showcased in multiple countries and regions, including Spain, Singapore, Japan, and Berlin, receiving acclaim from global automotive professionals and enthusiasts. As Xiaomi EV advances its global strategy, this performance vehicle, blending power with intelligence, is conveying its technological confidence and appeal on both virtual and real-world tracks. To celebrate the launch, Polyphony Digital will host a two-week official lap-time challenge on the historic Monza circuit in Gran Turismo 7, inviting players worldwide to compete using Xiaomi SU7 Ultra.
