Three months after its prototype debut in July, Xiaomi has officially launched the SU7 Ultra — a massively powerful electric sedan with luxury features — in the Chinese market. Boasting 1,500 horsepower, the model obliterates current performance standards for electric vehicles (EVs). The SU7 also caters to the high-end market with its top-tier specs and bold design. The capability to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in under 2 seconds underscores Xiaomi’s commitment to pushing the EV performance envelope despite little experience in the automotive market.

The SU7 Ultra takes the design of Xiaomi’s standard SU7 to new levels with a focus on aerodynamics and sportier aesthetics. Key design elements include redesigned bumpers, a larger rear spoiler spanning 1.56 meters, and a widened body structure compared to its standard counterpart. Xiaomi claims these additions, along with an active rear diffuser, generate a downforce of up to 265 kg.

Inside, the SU7 Ultra combines luxurious materials with performance-inspired styling. Alcantara, a hallmark of high-end automotive interiors, envelopes the seats, steering wheel, door panels, and other interior surfaces. Meanwhile, carbon fiber accents add to the sporty feel, and include the doorstep panels, center console, and rearview mirror.

The SU7 Ultra is powered by CATL’s Qilin 2.0 battery, with a capacity of 93.7 kWh. This high-performance power pack supports a remarkable 5.2C DC fast-charging rate, enabling a 10-80% charge in just 11 minutes. With a maximum discharge power of 1,330 kW, the battery powers three electric motors, producing a combined 1,138 kW (or 1,526 hp) and peak torque of 1,770 Nm. With so much power on tap, the SU7 Ultra can reach 100 km/h in 1.98 seconds, 200 km/h in 5.86 seconds, and achieve a top speed of 350 km/h.

The SU7 Ultra’s dragstrip times are no less impressive: The Chinese EV can complete the quarter-mile dash in a hypercar-rivaling 9.23 seconds, aided by an Asil-D torque vectoring system for enhanced handling. The vehicle also features Xiaomi’s largest carbon ceramic brake discs to date, with front discs at 430 mm and rears measuring a slightly smaller 410 mm, ensuring awesome stopping power.

A Three-Clinic Network Bets Dubai Is Ready For Longevity Medicine

Longevium has enlisted nearly 100 clinicians and created an AI platform in a bid to sell biological-age tracking as a medicine, not a wellness service.

Dubai has been busily creating the scaffolding for a longevity industry, including a dedicated regulatory authority and a health market deep enough to sustain it. Now the clinics are arriving.

Longevium, a longevity clinic network, has opened three locations across the city: a flagship at Triple Seven Mall on Jumeirah 3, and branches in Jumeirah Lake Towers and Jumeirah Village Circle. Together they house a multidisciplinary team of nearly 100 physicians and specialists offering what the company bills as “a measurable medical system for longevity”.

The pitch is that longevity medicine should look less like a wellness menu and more like continuous clinical care. Each patient’s biological age assessment, laboratory results, body composition, cardiovascular risk factors, metabolic markers, and lifestyle data feed into a single profile, with a proprietary AI platform helping physicians track progress and adjust protocols against the patient’s own biomarkers.

“Healthy aging must be approached clinically through diagnostics, biomarkers, physician supervision, longitudinal tracking, and protocols tailored to the individual,” said Dr. Ksenia Butova, Longevium’s founder and CEO. “Our goal is to help patients understand their health trajectory before disease develops, and then actively change that trajectory”.

The treatment list spans peptide-based protocols, exosome therapies, stem cell approaches, GLP-1 metabolic optimization, hormone balance programs, cardiovascular prevention, and regenerative aesthetics — a model built for the entrepreneurs, executives, and international patients the clinic says want measurable results rather than generic wellness. A signature offering, Longevity Day, compresses biomarker testing, ultrasound and vascular imaging, specialist consultations, IV therapy, and a personalized optimization roadmap into a single three-hour visit.

“Here, longevity, biotechnology, AI, prevention, and regenerative medicine are converging into a single ecosystem,” said Butova. “This is why Longevium was built in Dubai, and why we believe the UAE can become a global reference point for longevity medicine”.

The emirate established the Dubai Longevity Authority in 2026 to oversee its longevity, wellness, and advanced health sectors, and the Dubai Health Authority reported insured beneficiaries exceeding 4.9 million in 2025, up around 6.5%, with insurance claims reaching approximately 49.6 million, up around 13.5%.
