The model is offered with the V6S Plus motor across the lineup, with output rated at 235 kW (315 hp) for the Standard and Pro versions and 508 kW (681 hp) for the Max variant.

New Xiaomi SU7: Dimensions

Visually, the SU7 retains its fastback design and measures 4,997 mm in length with a 3,000 mm wheelbase. Exterior changes are limited, but the front fascia now integrates radar hardware more cleanly, while the rear gets a wider tyre setup.

New Xiaomi SU7: Interior

Inside, Xiaomi has revised the cabin with updated materials and interface design. The interior features a 16.1-inch central display, a 7.1-inch rotating instrument cluster and a head-up display, all linked to Xiaomi's smart cockpit system. The setup also supports expanded voice controls and multi-screen interaction.

New Xiaomi SU7: Improvements Over Previous-gen

Xiaomi says structural improvements include wider use of high-strength materials, with 2,200 MPa steel in key areas, nine airbags and a triple-redundant door-unlocking system designed to work in extreme conditions. The battery pack also receives extra underbody protection and coating upgrades.

The company is positioning the updated SU7 as a mid-size electric sedan aimed at rivals such as the Tesla Model 3. It also introduces what Xiaomi calls the "Dragon Chassis", which combines a front double-wishbone suspension with a rear five-link setup. Higher trims add dual-chamber air suspension with adaptive damping and predictive control based on road conditions.
