The Yangwang U9 electric coupe has been certified in China. It still has four electric motors, but their combined peak output has increased from 1,100 to 1,305 horsepower. The U9 will be able to accelerate from zero to “hundreds” in 2 seconds and travel up to 700 kilometers on a single charge. The supercar will also likely receive an advanced DiSus-X suspension. According to preliminary information, the car will be sold for one million yuan, which corresponds to 12.8 million rubles.

The Yangwang U9 electric supercar, announced in early 2023 and celebrated its premiere at the Shanghai Auto Show in the spring, has been certified in China. Moreover, he became more powerful. If earlier we were talking about 1100 horsepower, now 1305 are announced. The power plant of the U9 is still four-engine (one for each wheel). The battery is supplied by BYD-owned Xiangyang Fudi Battery. Its capacity is unknown, but on one charge the supercar travels up to 700 kilometers.

Judging by data from the database of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China, the U9 will be offered with several wheel options, a variety of exterior decor and a huge fixed wing. The supercar will also receive an electro-hydraulic Bosch brake booster, traction control and an event recorder, a black box in common parlance. The car will accelerate to 100 in 2 seconds. Maximum speed is 300 kilometers per hour.

What is not in the database of the Ministry of Industry of the People’s Republic of China is data on the suspension. Meanwhile, the U8 SUV has a hydropneumatic one, like a Mercedes, and is called DiSus-P. BYD also has DiSus-X.

This is a more advanced version of the chassis, which does not allow the body to sway and dive, allows you to untie any of the wheels, jump on the spot and even “dance”. The operation of the system was just demonstrated on Yangwang U9, but since then there has been no new information about it. It is possible that a production electric car does not have such a suspension. However, it is better to wait for the official specifications.
