Emir BardakçıXiaomi is once again blurring the lines between technology and lifestyle, shifting gears from simply creating powerful electric vehicles to training the next generation of drivers. The company has just officially announced the Xiaomi Elite Driving and Racing License Training Program, an exclusive new venture for dedicated fans. This incredible opportunity isn’t just about learning; it’s about experiencing the raw power of the Xiaomi SU7 on a professional circuit and walking away with a certified racing license. This move solidifies Xiaomi Auto’s commitment to the performance car world, offering a truly unique experience that goes far beyond the dealership. This initiative, powered by the spirit of innovation found in Xiaomi HyperOS, is set to create an even stronger bond with its community.
What Does the Elite Program Include?
This isn’t your average driving school. The program is an intense, three-day course held from October 17th to 19th at the prestigious Tianjin V1 International Circuit, an FIA-certified international Grade-2 professional racetrack in China. Under the guidance of professional instructors, participants will undergo more than five hours of individual practical lessons and systematic track courses. The ultimate goal is to equip them with the skills needed to earn an official “China Automobile Federation National Class B Racing License.”
