The new Xiaomi SU7 boasts a refined exterior and interior, offering a wider range of color options, upgraded driver seat comfort, improved cabin quietness, and enhanced UV protection. Performance and range have also seen major boosts: the CLTC range now reaches 720km for the Standard version, 902km for the Pro, and 835km for the Max. The chassis and powertrain have been upgraded with the Xiaomi Super Motor V6s Plus and the Xiaomi Jiaolong chassis across the entire range. Safety is further bolstered by the use of 2,200MPa ultra-high-strength steel and a triple-redundancy door handle design that fully complies with the 2027 national standards.

Key upgrades across the board include a standard LiDAR setup, a 700TOPS computing platform for intelligent driving, and an increase to 9 airbags. The Standard version is tailored for daily commuting and short weekend trips, while the Pro version adds a dual-chamber air suspension and CDC damping for a more versatile balance of comfort and sportiness. The Max version remains the ultimate “driver’s car,” featuring dual-motor all-wheel drive, Brembo performance brakes, and premium luxury appointments like a smart dimming panoramic roof, catering to those seeking peak performance and top-tier luxury.
