JAKARTA - Xiaomi seems to be not satisfied with just playing in electric sedans and SUVs. After SU7 and YU7 were sold out in China, the technology giant is now allegedly preparing a two-door electric sports car with very high performance.
Citing ArenaEV, Tuesday, June 30, a prototype of a heavily camouflaged two-door coupe was caught on camera while being tested on a Chinese highway. Xiaomi has not put an official logo on the car. However, a number of design details point strongly to the brand.
The red-bar-shaped rear lights are integrated at the stern, similar to Xiaomi's electric car. The low and wide body, plus the roof line resembling water droplets, also reminds of the SU7 Ultra. This model is said to be inspired by the Vision GT, a concept car that has only been present in the game so far.
The car seems to be prepared for the race track. The rear wing is still large in size attached to the stern. Under the bumper, there is a tiered diffuser, an aerodynamic panel to regulate the air flow so that the car is more stable when speeding.
The cross-spoke wheels show many yellow brake calipers. This detail strengthens the suspicion that the car was prepared as a high-performance vehicle.
This coupe is expected to be named Xiaomi GT. The car is said to be the place for Xiaomi's most powerful electric drive system.
Previously, Xiaomi introduced a four-motor electric system with 2,054 horsepower. This system has never been installed on any production car.
The configuration combines two Xiaomi-made V8S electric motors with two high-powered new-generation motors. If this rumor is true, Xiaomi GT will be above the SU7 Ultra which uses three electric motors.
Power above 2,000 horsepower requires a very sophisticated control system. This car is said to use a smart active chassis with a 48-volt digital electrical network. Each wheel has an independent 4.6-kilowatt power source to quickly adjust the suspension pitch when cornering.
The technology is designed to suppress body roll or the dizziness when the car maneuvers hard. This car is also said to use steer-by-wire, an electronic steering system without direct mechanical connection between the steering wheel and the wheels.
The system helps maintain tire traction when the car receives a large turning force. With that much power, the ability to control the car is just as important as the performance figure.
Xiaomi also strengthened the battery cooling system. High-performance cars generate a lot of heat, especially when driven on circuits. The improved cooling system from the SU7 Ultra is used so that the battery remains safe and the car does not go into limp mode, which is a condition when power is limited to prevent damage.
In the Chinese market, Xiaomi's position is quite strong. Based on data from China EV DataTracker, quoted by ArenaEV, Xiaomi shipped 24,023 units of sedans and 8,736 units of SUVs in May 2026 alone.
This two-door model will be at the highest position in Xiaomi's electric car lineup. Its price is estimated to be above the four-door flagship variant which currently starts at 529,900 yuan or around 66,600 euros.
Xiaomi GT is also part of the company's global ambitions. In the company's official documents, Xiaomi's electric vehicle division plans to start overseas expansion in the second half of 2027. The initial target is the advanced market in Europe with mid- to high-end electric cars.
Xiaomi already has the stock to sell performance claims. The SU7 track variant recorded an official time of 6 minutes 22.091 seconds at the Nürburgring. After that, the YU7 GT is said to be the fastest SUV on the track dubbed the Green Hell.
The emergence of the Xiaomi GT signals that competition for high-performance electric cars will be more crowded. If this model is actually put into production, Xiaomi will no longer only challenge mass car manufacturers, but also enter the electric supercar area.
However, until now Xiaomi has not announced the official name, final specifications, price, or launch schedule for the two-door electric sports car.
