He expressed his hope that Gran Turismo players and car culture enthusiasts would experience the appeal of Xiaomi’s high-performance intelligent vehicle, while also pointing to the rapid growth of the Chinese automotive industry.

Gran Turismo series producer Kazunori Yamauchi described his admiration for Xiaomi’s transition from consumer electronics to automotive manufacturing, noting that the creation of the SU7 and the record-breaking SU7 Ultra Prototype resonated strongly with the values of Gran Turismo and Polyphony Digital.
