I am farming in the real world.

Chapter 209 Rookie driver?

In order to promote Xiaomi's performance version SU7, Leib deliberately turned down his work in China and traveled all the way to the Nürburgring in Germany to promote his new car.

Lei Jun is also very confident about this new car developed by the company.

SU7 Ultra采用小米自研两台V8s电机和一台V6s电机组成动力系统，拥有1548匹马力，零百加速只要1.97秒。

This acceleration performance is only slightly slower than the Tesla Roadster's 1.9 seconds.

If it is placed in a fuel vehicle, it will make a lot of noise and kill people at will!

Even top supercars like Bugatti, Koenigsegg, and Pagani can only accelerate from 3 to 2 km/h in less than seconds or a little over seconds.

What's more, the retail price of Xiaomi SU7 is only a few hundred thousand RMB, so ordinary consumers can afford it if they grit their teeth. This can be said to be a complete dimensionality reduction blow to supercars that cost hundreds or even tens of millions.

However, when he saw the silver Zotye supercar disappear from his sight, Lei Jun, who had almost stepped on the accelerator into the engine compartment, thought he was hallucinating!
“I couldn’t even catch up with the car’s taillights!”

“Is it because of the driver?”

“Or is there a gap in the performance of the vehicles?”

Lei Bush felt a little confused.

This time when Xiaomi came to the Nürburgring to set a new lap time, it can be said that it used its publicity machine at full capacity.

Countless domestic and foreign car reviewers were invited, all waiting to write articles for Xiaomi SU7 and shoot videos for some soft advertising in the Nürburgring.

But just after getting on the track, it was left far behind by a Zotye car of unknown model.

Any boss of a car company would be unable to hold back his expression!

Including the two car reviewers from "Speed ​​​​Hands" who were following behind, they were all looking at the silver Zotye supercar in shock as it disappeared around the corner of the runway.

"What model of Zotye is this?"

"It's incredible that pure fuel can achieve this acceleration!"

"Nana, after we finish recording the show, why don't we go interview Zotye's technical team on site? I have a feeling that Zotye is going to take off this time." Wang Jieke was driving a Porsche 911, but his heart had already flown to the mysterious Zotye supercar.

Nana, who was sitting in the passenger seat, nodded in agreement: "We must go for the interview!"

As a professional car reviewer, no one would be interested in this kind of high-performance supercar.

……

At the same time, on a mountain forest route on the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

A gray-black Porsche 911 GT3 RS is competing with a black-red Mercedes-Benz AMG GT.

The drivers of these two cars are test drivers from the performance department of the car companies.

I plan to try out my lap time and road feel in the Nürburgring in the morning when there are few people on the road.

After all, people’s minds are clear in the early morning, which is the best time of the day for the body to burst with energy, and driving control performance will also exceed other time periods.

Just as the two German new energy vehicles had been racing for a distance, a strange silver-gray car model chased them from the back of the track in an extremely violent manner.

"Ok?"

“What new model is this?”

"What exaggerated angular lines! Lamborghini?"

"Or the Yankee Chevrolet Corvette?"

Several thoughts flashed through the minds of the two test drivers.

However, when they saw the silver supercar's terrible curve line and twisted driving posture, the two of them smiled with disdain. For professional drivers, such a graffiti-like running circle line is impossible.

From this, it can be seen that this unfamiliar supercar is most likely driven by a track rookie.

But what the two men didn't expect was that just as they curled their lips and were about to step on the accelerator to throw this unfamiliar silver supercar away.

The opponent accelerated incredibly in a straight line and actually overtook them both at a ghostly speed on the long straight road in the forest section!
Looking at the silver supercar that was pulling away from them, and the number "296km/h" jumping on the speedometer in front of them, the two test drivers looked like they had seen a ghost. They widened their eyes and muttered, "Holy Shit! What kind of car is this?"

……

At the same time, on the lap time scoreboard inside the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

A group of technicians from foreign car companies, dressed in colorful uniforms, entered the P room (track maintenance area) yawning.

For a busy and crowded race track like the Nürburgring, the P room has a very high utilization rate and is almost full every day.

Although today is the weekend public development period, the technical personnel here still gathered together and chatted as usual before their own fleet set off.

"Good morning, Samos! I heard that your Porsche 911GT3 ran into the 7-point mark again yesterday. That's amazing. The top 10 lap times are almost dominated by your Porsche."

"It's just so-so! Mercedes-Benz's AMG performance department is also very strong. You occupy two of the top ten spots on the list, and both are at the top."

A few foreign technicians were bragging about their business to each other, and from time to time they glanced at the P-rooms of several domestic car brands next door like BYD and Xiaomi, with a bit of disdain in their eyes.

Although the rise of China's new energy vehicles has been unstoppable in recent years, the high-end performance field, especially the professional racing world, is still dominated by these old European car companies.

In the eyes of these foreign technicians, Chinese car companies are just like the Japanese Mazda rotary engine that was a flash in the pan in the racing field, all of which are just for show.

It has risen rapidly, but its technological background is far behind that of top car companies such as Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz.

就拿眼前的纽北圈速纪录而言，前10的榜单纪录里就只有蔚来的EP9以6分45秒90的成绩勉强挤到了第7的位置。

The remaining 9 records are all German performance cars.

Even the supercars from Italy and France have not yet made it into the top 10 lap times list at the Nürburgring.

The U9, which is highly expected by many domestic car fans, has not even broken the 7-minute lap time watershed so far. You can imagine how big the gap is.

However, just as this group of German technicians were chatting, a commotion suddenly broke out under the lap time scoreboard in the distance.

"Today's best lap time is 6 minutes 03 seconds 21! Top 2 in history!"

"Oh my God! Which car company did this? It actually surpassed the lap record of Volkswagen ID.R!"

"ZHONGTAI, ZT700???"

"WTF? The model and brand seem to be the pinyin of Chinese characters. Is this a car made by the Chinese?"

“It’s a public open day, but we can still achieve such a result!”

"Are you sure the timer didn't go wrong? How could it be possible that the car came from China?"

The P room area was in complete chaos.

This sudden lap time record completely stunned the foreign technicians.

Because the Zotye Z logo and model codes displayed on the screen were too unfamiliar to these car enthusiasts who have been hanging out in the Nürburgring for years.

Even the Yangwang and Xiaomi teams who came from afar felt as if they had seen a ghost when they saw the lap record with an enlarged display on the screen.

"Oh my god! The domestic car industry is going to explode!"
