The XPeng G6 (Chinese: 小鹏G6; pinyin: Xiǎopéng G6) is a battery electric mid-size crossover SUV manufactured by Chinese electric car company XPeng. The G6 was unveiled in April 2023 during Auto Shanghai and it was launched in China in June.

History

[edit]

On 18 April 2023, at Auto Shanghai, the world premiere of the fifth model in the portfolio of XPeng took place.[2][3] The G6 is positioned between the compact G3i and the flagship G9 as a mid-size crossover.[4]

The G6 features a minimalist design characteristic of the company's other products, highlighted by a sleek silhouette and coupe SUV proportions.[5] Its front end is distinguished by double-row headlights, formed by two closely spaced LED strips. The Performance edition includes an opening spoiler at the lower edge of the body, which, combined with the vehicle's aerodynamic shape, is designed to optimize airflow, allowing for a drag coefficient as low as 0.248 Cd.[6] The G6's design was developed in collaboration with renowned Chinese science fiction writer Liu Cixin.[7][dead link]

The interior features a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster integrated into the dashboard and a 14.96-inch standing infotainment touchscreen both powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155P and has integrated HVAC controls, allowing for a nearly buttonless dashboard. The centre console features dual 50-watt cooled wireless charging pads and two circular cupholders ahead of an armrest. The trunk has a capacity of 571 litres (20.2 cu ft), expanding to 1,374 litres (48.5 cu ft) with the rear seats folded down.[8]

During the premiere, XPeng claimed that the G6 features fast-charging capabilities allowing users to add up to 300 kilometres (190 mi) of range in 10 minutes, made possible by the new generation modular Smart Electric Platform Architecture (SEPA) 2.0 platform.[9][10] It uses a 800-volt electrical architecture and utilizes silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductors in its power electronics.[8]

The G6 is available with XPeng's XNGP ADAS system, which has a 31-sensor suite including 2 LiDARs, 5 mmWave radars, 11 cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors, powered by dual Nvidia Orin X SoCs.[8]

The G6 was developed for sale in global markets. Deliveries of the first units began on 29 June 2023 in China,[11] with selected Western European markets to follow in 2024.[12]

2025 XPeng G6

The 2025 model year G6 was launched in China in March 2025, featuring a total of 81 changes. In China, the previously optional assisted autonomous driving system is now standard on all models.[13]

It features updated styling, including a full-width front light bar, new wheel designs, a fixed ducktail spoiler for improved rear visibility, darker taillights, and a revised plastic fender trim.[14] It also gains a revised dashboard design, with a standing 10.25-inch instrument cluster and a larger 15.6-inch infotainment display powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P SoC, along with upgraded materials throughout the cabin. It also has a 9-inch digital centre rear view mirror along with heating, ventilation, and massaging functions for the front row seats. The trunk has a capacity of 647 litres (22.8 cu ft), expanding to 1,752 litres (61.9 cu ft) with the rear seats folded down, and the centre armrest storage area has a volume of 8.9 litres (0.31 cu ft), which XPeng claims are all best-in-class capacities.[15]

The model features an updated intelligent driving system called Turing AI which became standard on all models in China. It was first seen in the P7+, which notably lacks LiDAR in its sensor suite and relies only on mmWave radars and cameras, and is powered by two Nvidia Drive Orin SoCs.[13] It is capable of assisted autonomous driving on all public roads, and like the P7+ the vehicle has turquoise LED lights placed on the exterior to notify other road users while the system is enabled.[16]

The vehicle features new batteries capable of 5C charging, allowing it to charge from 10-80% in 12 minutes. According to XPeng, the battery packs' sides can withstand 80 tons of pressure in a collision, the bottom can withstand a 2,000 joule impact, and the top can withstand 1,000 °C (1,800 °F) temperatures.[16]

Other changes include a softer suspension with lengthened travel, retuned steering, and improved soundproofing materials including the addition of double-glazed windows.

Powertrain

[edit]

The G6 is available with two powertrain variants. The basic version is equipped with one rear electric motor producing 218 kW (292 hp; 296 PS),[17] while the top-of-the-line model adds an additional 140 kW (188 hp; 190 PS) front motor for a total of 358 kW (480 hp; 487 PS).[18] The basic battery is a LFP pack with a capacity of 66 kWh, while long range models uses a 87.5 kWh NMC battery, both produced by CALB.[5] The batteries are capable of 3C charging, allowing for a 10-80% charge time of 20 minutes.[8]

Since 2025, the updated G6 is equipped with either a 68.5 kWh LFP or a 80.8 kWh NMC battery, both again supplied by CALB.[15] Both packs are capable 5C DC fast charging, with peak rates of 382 kW and 451 kW for the smaller and larger packs, respectively. This allows both packs to charge from 10-80% in 12 minutes, or within 15.5 minutes in −30 °C (−22 °F) ambient conditions. At launch, only the rear-wheel drive configuration is offered, with the motor maintaining power and receiving a slight torque bump up to 450 N⋅m (332 lb⋅ft).[16]
