2026 Xiaomi SU7 Announced with Up to 902KM Range and Faster Charging; Gets 15,000 Bookings in 34 Minutes

Xiaomi launched the first-generation SU7 electric sedan last year in 2024, in China. Following that, Xiaomi has now launched the next-generation 2026 Xiaomi SU7 again in China.

Here is more to it.

Next-generation 2026 Xiaomi SU7 – Specs and Features

This 2026 Xiaomi SU7 brings significant upgrades to its powertrain and battery efficiency. A total of three variants have been launched: Standard, Pro, and Max, and all models are equipped with the Xiaomi HyperEngine V6S Plus and the Xiaomi “Dragon Armour” chassis.

In terms of range, the Pro version offers a China Light-Duty Vehicle Test Cycle (CLTC) range of 902km. Second is the Max version, which offers a range of 835km, and lastly, the Standard variant (which some may call the base variant) also offers a CLTC range of 835km. However, the Max version offers the fastest charging in the trio, with Xiaomi claiming it can provide up to 670km of range, while the Pro variant can deliver up to 490km and the Standard up to 450km in just 15 minutes of charging.

The trio gets a new Xiaomi V6S Plus motor (for better performance), a Xiaomi-developed chassis (for improved stability), and double wishbone front and five-link rear independent suspension. Along with this, 4-piston fixed calipers in the front for better stopping power and 265mm wide rear tyres for better grip are standard across all variants. However, the Pro and Max variants also include a closed dual-chamber air spring system and CDC (Continuous Damping Control), which automatically adjusts the shock absorbers to match road conditions for a more comfortable ride.

The interior has also been improved, as the driver’s seat now offers 18-way adjustment, active side bolsters, and a 10-point massage function. Additionally, the front windshield has a triple-layer silver coating to keep the cabin cool and block UV rays. With the Max variant, you can also get an optional “Ultra-Quiet Cabin” package and a dual-zone smart dimming sunroof.

Safety Features

Speaking about safety, the car uses 2200MPa high-strength steel in the door beams and an “embedded roll cage” design to protect passengers during a crash. 9 airbags are also standard across all variants. Battery protection includes “hardcore” physical and thermal protection to prevent fires or damage, plus a new 1500MPa reinforced beam protects the bottom of the car from scrapes, and the battery pack has an upgraded “bulletproof coating” to resist impacts from road debris. Xiaomi also states that in order to meet strict 2027 safety standards, the door handles have been redesigned to allow passengers to get out of the vehicle in case of an emergency. These are:

  • External Mechanical Handle: Automatically unlocks after a crash.
  • Backup Power: Even if the car loses main power, the electronic locks have a backup power supply to work normally.
  • Internal Emergency Pull: A mechanical handle inside the car that opens the door instantly, even if the central locks are stuck.
