A very yellow, very fast electric car from China has gone unfeasibly fast around a scary racetrack in Germany. Xiaomi, makers of the SU7 Ultra Prototype, has once again sent this mad, bad, 1,562bhp prototype on a hot lap, and hoo boy is it hot.
Because where last year this car managed 6m 46.874s – and thus becoming the fastest four-door car to lap the ‘Ring – this year it’s managed a scarcely believable 6m 22.091s. That makes it the third fastest car overall around the Green Hell, behind only the Volkswagen ID.R and Porsche 919 Evo.
