So they put four doors in a prototype car to get a record?
That’s brilliant and lame at the same time
Don’t know much about the purpose of running a car at Nürburgring, perhaps to test the extreme performance and stability of the actuating components?
For Chinese automakers, another noteworthy subject is the supercar manufactured by BYD, called the Yangwang U9. I’m curious whether Xiaomi’s current strategy of leveraging track performance to achieve its promotional goals will put pressure on the branding of the U9. After all, they are positioned at different price points, and if there isn’t a significant performance gap, this could become a headache for the manufacturer’s market operations department.

Only one second slower than Nio EP9, And one second faster than 911 GT2 RS
