It feels like the new-generation SU7 has a "softer chassis" when driving compared to the first-generation SU7. Has the tuning style changed?
Through a comprehensive upgrade of the chassis, the new-generation SU7 achieves better "driving handling" and "riding comfort" compared to the first-generation SU7; in the optimal driving handling state, the chassis will be stiffer than before with stronger support. In the optimal riding comfort state, the chassis will be softer than before, with a more obvious luxury texture. The specific main upgrades include:
First is the upgrade of steering, braking, and tires. The new-generation SU7 has a significant upgrade in steering system tuning, making it more precise and more "responsive"; on the brake pedal, it references the "pedal feel tuning" style of the SU7 Ultra, while optimizing the brake pedal bite point, giving the driver more confidence every time they step on the brake; the standard 265mm wide rear tires across the entire lineup increase the contact area with the ground by 8%, bringing better grip;
Second is the upgrade of the suspension system. The newly upgraded closed dual-chamber air springs and CDC® variable damping shock absorbers on the new-generation SU7 Pro/Max Edition significantly improve handling performance and ride quality. Among them, the maximum stiffness difference between the Comfort mode and Sport+ mode of the dual-chamber air springs reaches 42%, making the difference between soft and hard more distinct. Using Comfort mode for daily commuting will be softer, while switching to Sport mode will provide stronger support for the vehicle body;
Finally, let's talk about driving modes. The new-generation SU7 Standard Edition and Pro Edition have 3 main driving modes (Eco, Comfort, Sport), and the Max Edition has 4 main driving modes (Eco, Comfort, Sport, Sport+). In addition, all versions have 2 custom modes. Drivers can freely choose and customize the vehicle's driving characteristics according to their preferences. If you prefer a "stiffer" driving texture, we recommend switching to "Sport Mode" or "Sport+ Mode", or using the custom driving mode to "specially tune" a mode you like according to your habits;
While comprehensively upgrading driving and handling performance, the new-generation SU7 has also elevated the sense of premium quality and comfort to a higher level. You are welcome to visit a store to test drive and experience it in person. Since the test drive routes vary among sales stores, and out of consideration for test drive safety, there will be restrictions on vehicle speed and some driving modes during the test drive. We appreciate your understanding and welcome your feedback and suggestions.
