The car now features a built-in 4.4-liter refrigerator, and the audio systems have been upgraded: the Standard and Pro trims now feature 14 speakers, while the Max trim now features 25 speakers with Dolby Atmos support.
All versions are equipped with 18-way power-adjustable seats with a massage function. The front passenger receives a zero-gravity seat with heating, ventilation, and massage. Improved sound insulation is also claimed for all versions. The Max version also offers a smart darkening roof with independent adjustment for the front and rear seats.
The technology has been updated—all models receive a new V6s Plus engine. The SU7 Max accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.08 seconds and has a top speed of 265 km/h. The CLTC range is 720 km for the base model, 902 km for the Pro version, and 835 km for the Max version. The entire lineup is built on a high-voltage platform, and the Max version supports ultra-fast charging—from 10% to 80% in just 12 minutes.
