The Nürburgring fight between Xiaomi and Porsche just escalated, and the SU7 sedan's new rear wing is doing the talking
The back-and-forth between Porsche and Xiaomi at the Nürburgring shows no sign of easing, and the Chinese firm now looks ready to land a knockout blow. These fresh spy shots reveal Xiaomi is cooking up an even wilder take on the SU7 Ultra, possibly called the Ultra Extreme.
Porsche’s Taycan Turbo GT originally held the Nürburgring lap record for premium-segment production EVs, until the SU7 Ultra ran off and left it behind. A few months back, Porsche finally rolled out the long-awaited Manthey Kit for its flagship Taycan and comfortably snatched the crown right back.

Unwilling to let its German rivals enjoy the moment, Xiaomi has a savage new SU7 in the works, caught here at the Nürburgring for the first time.
What’s New?

The aerodynamics of the electric sedan have been overhauled. Changes start at the front where there is an all-new bumper, air intakes, and splitter, complete with aggressive fins to direct air around the wheels. In addition, the car has louvers on the front wheel arches and a hood similar to that of the original SU7 Ultra prototype.
Baldauf
The rear is wilder still than the front. Xiaomi’s engineers seem to have studied the Porsche 911 GT3 RS and decided its towering rear wing would look right at home on a four-door. That oversized item uses a twin-plane design with swan-neck uprights, and might even run an active DRS system. A new lip spoiler peeks out from the fluorescent yellow camouflage, and an aggressive diffuser adds still more downforce.
More Power, Too?
It’s too early to say whether the car gets a power bump. The existing SU7 Ultra sends 1,548 hp through its three electric motors, but around 18 months ago Xiaomi revealed a quad-motor EV platform good for up to 2,054 hp. That setup may debut in a flagship two-door coupe and could also reach the SU7. Even if it doesn’t, and output holds level with the standard Ultra, the aero changes alone should carve real time off the car’s Nurburgring lap. Enough to beat the Porsche as well? With any luck we won’t wait long to find out.
