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.

Yango Ride, a global ride-hailing service under the Yango Group, has extended its corporate transport solution, Yango Rides for Business, to Abu Dhabi. Initially launched in Dubai in 2024, the company is now expanding in a bid to simplify business travel for companies operating between both Emirates.

Yango Rides for Business offers a streamlined way to handle employee transportation through a single platform. Instead of dealing with the hassle of prepayments or reimbursement claims, businesses will be able to consolidate all ride expenses under a single corporate account that’s billed monthly. The setup makes it easier to track spending while ensuring expenses remain fully tax-deductible.

A key advantage of the service is its flexibility, allowing managers to set ride permissions and budget limits for employees and clients. Businesses can tailor transport solutions based on team needs — whether for daily commutes or specific travel requirements. Additionally, a dedicated account management system provides real-time analytics, enabling firms to monitor usage patterns and optimize costs.

Islam Abdul Karim, Regional Head of Yango Middle East, highlighted the importance of this expansion, explaining: “Abu Dhabi’s 4.5% economic growth in Q3 2024 reflects a thriving business environment where seamless mobility is essential for productivity. Yango Rides for Business simplifies corporate transportation, reducing administrative tasks and optimizing costs. By providing a centralized solution, we help companies ensure smooth employee travel experiences, supporting efficiency and growth in this dynamic market”.
