Xiaomi SU7 Ultra and Xiaomi 15 Ultra Launch Confirmed by February

Xiaomi has restarted its operations today following the Chinese New Year celebrations. Lei Jun, the CEO of Xiaomi, distributed red envelopes to staff, which had the word “Ultra” on them, hinting at the launch of new Ultra models. Additionally, Xiaomi’s official Weibo account and several company leaders, including Lu Weibing and Wang Teng Thomas, have confirmed that the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra car and the Xiaomi 15 Ultra smartphone will be unveiled in China by the end of this month.

Upcoming Launch Date

Recent leaks suggest that Xiaomi is planning to host a launch event at 7 pm (local time) on February 26 in China. This event is likely to introduce the SU7 and 15 Ultra. The company is anticipated to officially announce the launch date shortly. Both products are also expected to be presented at MWC 2025, which kicks off in early March in Barcelona, Spain.

Specifications of the SU7 Ultra

The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra electric sedan is touted as the most powerful vehicle from Xiaomi yet. It features a triple-motor arrangement (V8s + V8s + V6s), producing a staggering 1,548 horsepower. The car can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 1.98 seconds and reach 0-200 km/h in 5.86 seconds. With a top speed of over 350 km/h, it utilizes CATL’s Kirin Gen 2 battery technology. Originally scheduled for a March launch, the SU7 Ultra is now likely to make its debut sooner than expected.

Features of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra

On the other hand, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is set to be the company’s most sophisticated smartphone so far. It will come with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and a Leica-branded quad-camera system. The rear cameras will consist of a 50-megapixel one-inch main sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, a 50-megapixel 3x periscope telephoto camera, and a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, making it a strong contender for mobile photography enthusiasts.

The phone will also have a TCL CSOT 2K quad-curved OLED display, a 6,000mAh battery supporting 90W wired and 50W wireless charging, an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, eSIM capability, and satellite communication features. It is expected to be priced starting at around 6,499 Yuan (~$890) and will rival flagship models such as the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, Vivo X200 Ultra, and Oppo Find X8 Ultra.

With these two Ultra products, Xiaomi is clearly challenging the limits of both the smartphone and automotive markets, solidifying its position in the premium segment.
