Xiaomi Takes the Racing World by Storm with Vision GT Electric Supercar Concept

Xiaomi has made history by becoming the first Chinese automaker to participate in the iconic Vision Gran Turismo program, a 28-year-old initiative that has historically been dominated by legacy brands. The electric supercar concept, dubbed Vision GT, is built on Xiaomi's own 900V Silicon Carbide platform and features a radical low-slung design with scissor doors and a massive carbon fiber rear wing.

['The Vision Gran Turismo program was created in 2013 by Polyphony Digital and has since become the playground of top-tier automakers like Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Ferrari, and BMW. Each brand designs a concept car without production constraints or regulatory hurdles, allowing for pure expression of design and engineering ambition that is then brought to life in the Gran Turismo racing game on PlayStation.', ["Xiaomi's entry into this exclusive club is a statement about how far Chinese EV makers have come in just a few years, marking a significant shift in the industry. The concept was spotted in Barcelona ahead of MWC and leaked online before Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun confirmed the reveal on Weibo on February 28, promising full specifications on March 1.", ["The Vision GT concept features an extreme low-slung posture consistent with a mid-engine or central-cockpit layout, with aggressive and aerodynamically driven design elements such as multiple front air-channel intakes, a shark-fin roofline structure, T-shaped headlights, and an exaggerated rear diffuser. The interior boasts a butterfly-shaped steering wheel, a panoramic display screen, and a 'cocoon-shaped sofa' for the driver's seat.", ["Xiaomi's chief designer Li Tianyuan described the philosophy behind the concept: achieving aerodynamic performance without relying on additional bolt-on components. This approach highlights Xiaomi's commitment to innovative design and engineering."], ' [']]]
