Supermotor V8s EVO and Track-Ready Performance
Xiaomi officially launched the YU7 GT on May 21, 2026, pricing the single trim at 389,900 yuan (approximately $54,000). The vehicle is powered by Xiaomi’s new-generation Supermotor V8s EVO, a dual-motor system producing 738 kW of peak power and 1,003 PS (metric horsepower), with a maximum motor speed of 28,000 rpm. The 0-100 km/h sprint takes 2.92 seconds, and the top speed is electronically limited to 300 km/h. According to reporting by Sina Tech, Xiaomi’s European R&D center spent over 18 months calibrating the vehicle at the Nurburgring Nordschleife, achieving a lap time of 7 minutes 22.755 seconds, which shatters the previous SUV lap record by 14 seconds. The YU7 GT is built on an 897V silicon-carbide high-voltage platform with a 101.7 kWh ternary lithium battery pack. CLTC range reaches 705 km, and 10-80% fast charging takes approximately 18 minutes. Per Xiaomi’s official presentation, the vehicle is positioned as a ‘pure GT + sports car-class SUV’ targeting senior tech executives and driving enthusiasts.
Aerodynamics and Brake System
The YU7 GT features a carbon fiber rear wing, active front air curtains, and an underbody diffuser generating 180 kg of downforce at 250 km/h. The braking system uses Brembo GT 6-piston calipers with 420 mm front carbon ceramic brake discs, capable of repeated full stops from 200 km/h without fade. According to
Market Impact: Xiaomi’s Third Automotive Product
The YU7 GT represents Xiaomi’s third automotive product after the SU7 sedan and YU7 standard SUV.

Per reporting by PChome, deliveries begin 1-6 weeks after order lock, and Xiaomi has already received thousands of pre-orders. The standard YU7 was simultaneously launched at 233,500 yuan, broadening Xiaomi’s EV lineup to cover the 230,000-390,000 yuan price range.
