# La BYD Yangwang U9 Xtreme supera i 500 km/h dopo un incidente

> BYD ha ufficialmente portato la sua Yangwang U9 Xtreme oltre i 500 km/h, battendo il proprio record di auto di serie più veloce, dopo la distruzione di un esemplare in un incidente a circa 400 km/h in Cina e l'annuncio di un nuovo tentativo. Da parte sua, Xiaomi ha stabilito un nuovo record sul giro al Nürburgring con la SU7 Ultra rivista e ha elogiato la prestazione di BYD, illustrando la competizione tecnologica tra le elettriche cinesi. Gli sotto-eventi pongono la Cina e gli Emirati Arabi Uniti al centro dei tentativi di velocità e dell'incidente, mentre la Germania si concentra sul Nürburgring e sul dibattito sulla portata di queste prestazioni; la Francia riporta anche una retrospettiva BMW M3 a Epoqu'auto, senza legame diretto con il record.
