Xiaomi YU7 GT EV has achieved a world first in autonomous driving at the N\u00fcrburgring Nordschleife. The EV performance car, fitted with the Track Package, completed the full 20.8 km circuit without a human driver. The recorded lap time was 10:29.483. The test was conducted and certified in accordance with the N\u00fcrburgring\u2019s official timing procedures. Following this achievement, the N\u00fcrburgring has added a new official category \u2014 Autonomous Driving (under Electric Vehicles).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nordschleife consists of 73 corners, around 300 meters of elevation change, and a wide range of continuously changing road surface conditions. It is one of the world\u2019s most demanding automotive proving grounds. The N\u00fcrburgring Nordschleife combines high-speed sections, consecutive technical corners, constantly varying grip levels, and extremely limited margins for error. The circuit a benchmark for vehicle engineering, development, and performance validation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This achievement validates the comprehensive capabilities of Xiaomi\u2019s autonomous driving system under extreme dynamic conditions. It also also demonstrates the potential unlocked through the deep integration of artificial intelligence and advanced vehicle control technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since the launch of Xiaomi HAD in 2024, Xiaomi has continued to advance its autonomous driving technology. In March 2026, Xiaomi introduced a new vehicle platform powered by the next-generation Xiaomi XLA architecture and the MiMo-Embodied foundation model. With enhanced understanding and reasoning capabilities, the new system has the ability to interpret complex environments, dynamic traffic participants, and vehicle states. This drives the evolution of autonomous driving from behaviour imitation toward deeper environmental understanding and autonomous decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Xiaomi\u2019s autonomous driving system is an end-to-end architecture and vehicle dynamics model, enabling real-time perception of vehicle states and road conditions while making control decisions through dynamic prediction. Under high-speed and high-load conditions, the system continuously coordinates steering, braking, and power delivery to maintain vehicle stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through the N\u00fcrburgring autonomous driving project, Xiaomi has gathered valuable data and system feedback under extreme operating conditions. This will support ongoing improvements in vehicle dynamics modelling, control strategy optimisation, and safety redundancy mechanisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
