This suggests the version being tested may pack more horsepower than the flagship 664-hp grade announced at the SU7's launch.
The prototype is also fitted with a fixed rear wing, whereas previously the SU7 has only been shown with a retractable rear wing.launched for 2025, which delivers up to 1,092 hp, also has a fixed rear wing, and with its available Weissach package, which happens to remove the rear seats, the car managed to lap the 'Ring in a time of only 7:07.55.
The regular SU7 is currently available in China only, where it is priced from about $30,000, or less than what a Tesla Model 3 retails for in that market. That's for a single-motor rear-wheel-drive grade with 295 hp. Upgrading to the dual-motor all-wheel-drive grade with 664 hp costs roughly $41,500.
