XPENG Launches All-New G6 and G9 Smart EVs in Europe, Pioneering a New Era of Intelligent, Sustainable Mobility
XPENG, the forward-thinking global innovator in smart electric vehicles (EVs), has officially opened order books for its completely redesigned next-generation smart SUVs — the all-new XPENG G6 and XPENG G9 — across key European markets. With the introduction of these models, the company aims to redefine the EV landscape through advanced AI, sustainable design, and unparalleled user experience, delivering two of the most intelligent and performance-driven electric SUVs the region has seen.
A Landmark Moment for XPENG in Europe
XPENG’s latest launch represents a pivotal step in the company’s global expansion and technological evolution. Both the new G6 and G9 are built from the ground up, incorporating significant design, powertrain, safety, and interior innovations that respond directly to the demands of European consumers. These new-generation vehicles are more than just electric SUVs — they are comprehensive mobility solutions blending high-performance engineering with sustainability and intelligent technology.
Now open for pre-orders across France, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, both models will begin delivery by the end of summer 2025. The new G6 is also making its dynamic public debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed (July 10–13, 2025), one of the most prestigious automotive events in the world, showcasing XPENG’s ambition to position itself among the top EV brands globally.
XPENG’s 800V Architecture: A Charging Revolution
One of the most outstanding highlights of both the G6 and G9 is their shared foundation: XPENG’s next-generation full-domain 800V Silicon Carbide (SiC) architecture. This cutting-edge platform allows for ultra-fast charging times and increased energy efficiency, making the vehicles practical and future-ready in markets where charging speed and infrastructure reliability are key concerns.
Equipped with XPENG’s proprietary 5C Supercharging AI Battery technology, both models offer unprecedented charging speeds. The G9 can be recharged from 10% to 80% in just 12 minutes, reaching a peak charging rate of 525 kW. The G6 follows closely with a 451 kW peak and the same rapid recharge capability. This places XPENG well ahead of most competitors in the global EV space and significantly reduces downtime for drivers.
Both SUVs utilize advanced lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry that is not only efficient and high-performing but also environmentally responsible — completely free of rare earth minerals. This shift marks XPENG’s dedication to responsible production and long-term sustainability without compromising energy density or performance.
Industry-Leading Safety Standards
Beyond performance, XPENG continues to set the bar high for EV safety. Both the G6 and G9 are equipped with state-of-the-art battery protection technologies. At the heart of their safety engineering is a “4-3-4” structural framework paired with ballistic-grade battery armor. These safety measures offer resilience against extreme temperatures up to 1,000°C and can withstand side crush impacts of up to 80 tons.
XPENG’s battery systems are not only tough but long-lasting. The new models see a 30% improvement in battery lifespan compared to previous versions, making them among the most reliable electric powertrains on the market today. All these safety and longevity enhancements meet — and in many cases exceed — the strictest global safety standards for EVs.
