The EV performance sedan market has been mostly a two-horse race until now, with Porsche Taycan and Tesla Model S regularly exchanging the title of the fastest production EV on the Nürburgring. Porsche is the latest to win the trophy, thanks to the 7:07.551 time accomplished by the Taycan Turbo GT with Weissach package. The title is still contested because the record vehicle was no regular model, having been stripped of its rear bench and other parts.

Tesla is undoubtedly keen on snatching the crown from Porsche, but it will soon have another competitor on the Green Hell. Xiaomi, the smartphone market that nobody saw coming as a carmaker, is fine-tuning its SU7 sedan on the Nürburgring with the clear goal of making a statement. Some would say that the simple fact that the car was spotted lapping the Nordschleife is already a strong statement. This means Xiaomi plans a European debut soon, right on Porsche's turf.

The prototype in the gallery sports a fixed rear wing instead of the retractable spoiler of the SU7 Max, hinting at a more hardcore variant of the Chinese model. A similar aerodynamic enhancement is visible up front in the form of a small chin spoiler installed under the front bumper. I expect the suspension was upgraded, too, with a stiffer setup and possibly reinforced bushings.
