CHAPTER 01 / 07

Conventional thinking never created a supercar that breaks limits. Cars that redefine eras come from souls that refuse to accept them.

The Pursuit Beyond, from X

The YANGWANG U9 Xtreme, rooted in BYD's 30 years of pioneering electrification expertise, integrates engineers' ultimate visions for new-energy vehicle performance. It shatters the "impossible barriers", aiming to set benchmarks for top speed and Nürburgring hypercar lap times.

"Xtreme" is derived from the English word "Extreme" — it proclaims the core product value: the Pursuit Beyond, born to explore the boundaries of absolute speed.

X stands for the unknown. The challenges of limits and boundaries — our guide when exploring uncharted territories and forging ahead alone, driven by uncompromising dreams and aspirations.

Turning the unknown "X" into a real-life "Dream Car". A seemingly whimsical dream, forged into an epoch-making legend in reality — by ultimate technology and unwavering dedication.

CHAPTER 02 / 07

A straight under 2.5 miles, three laps of probing, one rewrite of the world's top-speed ladder.

WORLD'S FASTEST EV · ATP PAPENBURG

Verified 496.22 km/h

ATP Papenburg, Germany. Three laps, three attempts: 300, 302, 308.4 mph — on the third, the record fell. The fastest production car on the planet, past the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ (304.8 mph, 2019).

THE STAGE · PAPENBURG

An oval built for speed

The ATP Papenburg high-speed oval banks at 49.7°, recommended limit 250 km/h — yet U9 Xtreme exits the corner at 300 km/h. Driver Marc Basseng admits the corner could be taken even faster; he simply didn't want to load the tyres laterally.

The straight is under 2.5 miles — less than half of Ehra-Lessien, where Bugatti set 304.8 mph. With electric acceleration, this straight was enough.

The data proves it held back

After the record, telemetry showed another 1.5 seconds of full throttle available. Chief engineer Daniel Yin confirms 250 kW of power remained in reserve.

Tyres were built for 500 km/h — 9 minutes on the dyno drum without issue; the actual top-speed run lasted just 3–4 seconds. There is still power in reserve — enough to break 500 km/h.

CHAPTER 04 / 07

[ e4 + DiSus-X ] — the keys handed to today's automotive engineers for the next legend.

e4 + DiSus-X

For 130 years, racing revolved around tyres, horsepower and weight. The new-energy era introduces a variable a supercar has never had — fully active body posture control.

The e4 platform masters longitudinal and lateral posture, steadying power and composure on complex track surfaces; DiSus-X masters vertical posture, independently commanding active force at each wheel — precise axle-load transfer and mass distribution for corners that are more controllable, and safer. Their systematic merging reshapes the physical limits of an electric supercar.

The 1200V Ultra-High Voltage Platform

The world's first series-produced 1200V ultra-high voltage platform, purpose-built for track performance. Re-engineered cooling supports the 133% increased power output; drive-system thermal-exchange efficiency rises 40% — peak performance holds, suppressing thermal fade.

CHAPTER 05 / 07

Traditional handcraft and hardcore electric supercar technology, fused in "Dawn Moment".

Design That Captivates · Dawn Moment

Ultra-fine 5–10-micron gold powder, hand-scattered into pure black paint, layer upon layer sealed in clearcoat. Under sunlight, it glows like the first rays of dawn breaking through clouds.

Crafted with traditional lacquer-polishing techniques, the matte gold is sprayed and ground by hand, warming the machine. The name comes from the morning the U9 Xtreme broke the world record. The production "Dawn Moment" made its global debut at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show.
