According to Car News China, Xiaomi founder and CEO Lei Jun has set a sales target of 10,000 units for the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra in 2025. The electric super car from Xiaomi will go on sale in China starting March, priced at 814,900 CNY, which roughly converts to $114,200.
Pre-orders for the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra began in China in late October 2024. Despite its high price tag, the vehicle garnered 3,680 orders within the first ten minutes of its launch.
CEO Lei Jun stated that the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra will be launched alongside the Xiaomi 15 Ultra smartphone.
The electric super car will offer a total of five exterior color options, including the signature yellow that has featured prominently in recent promotional campaigns.
Previously, the Xiaomi SU7 sedan offered up to ten exterior color choices, making it the model with the widest range of exterior colors among Chinese automotive manufacturers.

Last year, Goldman Sachs bank predicted sales of around 4,000 units for the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra in 2024. However, CEO Lei Jun is confident in setting a sales target of 10,000 units for the electric super car in its first year of sales.
In comparison, the Porsche Taycan sold 20,836 units globally in 2023. Upon its launch, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra will be a direct competitor to Porsche’s electric sedan.
The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra measures 5,115 mm in length, 1,970 mm in width, and 1,465 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,000 mm.
Xiaomi has equipped this super car with three electric motors, delivering a combined maximum output of 1,526 horsepower and a peak torque of 1,770 Nm. As a result, the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.98 seconds, reach 0 to 200 km/h in 5.86 seconds, and attain a top speed of 350 km/h.
The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra boasts the largest carbon-ceramic brake discs ever fitted to a sports car, with six-piston Akebono calipers at the front and four-piston calipers at the rear.
