The Xiaomi Vision Gran Turismo (Xiaomi Vision GT) is coming to Gran Turismo 7, the video game has announced.

Xiaomi becomes the 36th brand and the first technology company to join the Vision Gran Turismo project.

Launched in 2013, the project invites brands to imagine and create original concept cars exclusively for the Gran Turismo video game series.

As such, the Xiaomi Vision GT, which made its global debut at MWC 2026 Barcelona, is a concept only available on the racing simulation. Although, a physical concept was showcased at Auto China 2026 in Beijing.

Gran Turismo 7 introduces the first EV driving experience for the concept model. Challenges feature both the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra and Vision GT.

This gives players a new way to explore the distinct acceleration, braking, and handling characteristics of the high-performance EVs, albeit in a virtual setting.

Sculpted by the wind

The Xiaomi Vision GT is guided by the design philosophy “Sculpted by the Wind.” Rather than relying on deliberately sharpened surfaces or add-on aerodynamic elements, the car is shaped around a suspended teardrop-like cabin, with every surface aerodynamically optimized and every structural element designed with an airfoil cross-section.

Building on aerodynamic solutions proven in production vehicles such as Xiaomi SU7 and Xiaomi YU7, Xiaomi Vision GT takes the approach further.

Its cross-shaped headlights also function as airflow guides, while the signature halo-shaped taillight is integrated into the rear air channel. Together with an active wake-control system, these features enable an aerodynamic efficiency value of 4.1 and a drag coefficient (Cd) of 0.29.

Moreover, Xiaomi Vision GT also introduces the “Sofa Racer” concept, centered on a cocoon-like cockpit that combines comfort, immersion and driver focus.

Powered by Xiaomi Hyper XiaoAi AI Voice Assistant and Xiaomi MiMo foundation model, the cockpit can anticipate and respond to driver intent while connecting naturally with Xiaomi’s Human × Car × Home smart ecosystem.

Ubisoft has launched The Crew Motorfest on Nintendo Switch 2, bringing the newly released Season 11: Expeditions to Nintendo players.

The Switch 2 version has been carefully optimized to preserve the richness of the title’s experience, while embracing the freedom of playing anywhere and anytime on the handheld.

Ubisoft Ivory Tower officially kicked off The Crew Motorfest’s fourth year of content earlier in the week with Season 11, the title’s most expansive content yet.

It provided players with a new island, Special Events, and never-before seen features, including wildlife roaming across the archipelago.

Aside from Switch 2, the update is available on Ubisoft+, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Steam Deck, and PC (Ubisoft, Epic Games, Steam).

New vehicles, challenges, more

In Season 11, The Crew Motorfest partners with Crystal Dynamics for a premium DLC pack.

This includes exclusive vehicles, a new island, and a brand-new playlist (Tomb Raider: Secrets of Ni’ihau).

Players will join Lara Croft as she searches for her missing friend who vanished after chasing a powerful relic. Using Lara’s guidance from afar, players will navigate a storm lashed jungle crawling with ancient ruins and deadly predators as every mile brings them closer to the truth.

Moreover, the game’s maps also expands this season with the new free island Kauai. Players can explore this via the Kauai Expeditions Playlist.

The free playlist features eight main events, 40 animals to photograph, and the new Road Discovery feature, which encourages players to travel along all the exciting paths in the game to explore the world, uncover the map, and earn rewards.

Furthermore, Season 11 includes a new winch & towing feature for select vehicles. Winch turns every dead end into an opportunity. Players can haul debris, crack puzzles, explore new blaze trails, and even drag other vehicles out of trouble.

To take on towing challenges, there’s a selection of vehicles like the Hyundai Crater Concept, Suzuki Jimny Winch Ed, and Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG 6×6.

The latest season also includes the Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato. And in a new special event, players can experience a showstopper dedicated to the legendary Bugatti Tourbillon.

A total of 20 new vehicles will roll out across Year 4 and Season 11, including:

• Bugatti Tourbillon
• Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato
• The Hyundai Crater Concept
• Suzuki Jimny (2018) Special Edition
• Cadillac Ct5-V Blackwing (2025) Street tier 2
