2023/02/07 Car

XPeng is officially bringing its two flagship models to Europe, restarting an overseas expansion that was suspended for much of last year.

The company announced that it has introduced its two newest electric vehicles to the European market, the G9 flagship SUV and the new P7 sports sedan. Both models were on display at eCar Expo in Stockholm from February 3 to 5 and can now be ordered in Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands and Sweden.

"XPeng G9 and P7 bring a combination of superior styling, quality, performance and comfort, exemplifying our market-leading technology and innovation. Today also represents a significant milestone as we build our presence in Europe," said Brian Gu, vice chairman and president of the company. "We believe both vehicles deliver a new level of sophistication and a people-first mobility experience, and will be the electric vehicles of choice for many European customers," Gu added.

Notably, this is the debut of a facelifted version of the P7, which has yet to be officially launched in XPeng's home market of China. The launch of the new P7 in China is expected in March.

The XPeng G9 was officially launched in China on September 21, 2022, with deliveries starting on October 27. To date, 8,622 G9 units have been delivered in China, including 2,249 units in January.

Designed to meet E-NCAP five-star safety standards and strict EU WVTA vehicle certification, both the G9 and P7 are models that bring some of the most powerful and advanced electric vehicle technology to Europe.

The G9 features a new powertrain system and an 800V silicon carbide (SiC) platform that enables ultra-fast charging of up to 300 kW, allowing drivers to add 100 kilometers of range in just five minutes. This makes it possible to charge the 98-kWh battery from 10 percent to 80 percent in 20 minutes. For the rear-wheel-drive long-range version of the G9, it can travel 570 km WLTP on a single charge. The all-wheel-drive version of the G9 boasts up to 551 hp and 717 Nm of torque, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 3.9 seconds. Its dual-chamber air spring system offers extensive stiffness adjustment to help the vehicle handle complex road conditions and ensure optimum ride comfort. The G9 can be fitted with an electric tow bar and towing loads of up to 1,500 kg to suit the European lifestyle.

The new P7 has been optimized for a maximum charging power of 175 kW and fast charging from 10 percent to 80 percent in just 29 minutes. The P7's range has been improved, providing up to 576 kilometers of WLTP on a single charge for the rear-wheel-drive long-range version. The model's all-wheel drive version accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds, and Brembo brakes are standard. The new P7 is available in a range of color styles, as well as an exclusive Wing Edition featuring scissor doors.

XPeng has introduced a power tailgate and soft-close doors for the P7 for greater comfort and convenience. It also has a heat pump and heated steering wheel for easier winter driving in colder parts of Europe.
