The XPeng G9 (Chinese: 小鹏G9; pinyin: Xiǎopéng G9; stylized as G9) is a battery electric mid-size crossover SUV manufactured by Chinese electric car company XPeng. The G9 was unveiled in November 2021 during the Guangzhou Auto Show and was officially launched in China in the third quarter of 2022. The G9 is the first XPeng product to be conceived and designed from the outset for both domestic Chinese and international markets.[2]

Overview

Rear view

The XPeng G9 is a 4th product, following the G3 compact crossover, P7 mid-size sedan, and P5 compact sedan. The G9 complies with 5-star safety design standards under new car assessment programs in China and the European Union, as well as the EU's vehicle certification standards known as European Whole Vehicle Type Approval, making the vehicle the first XPeng model to be designed with foreign markets in mind. The G9 also meets the EU's environmental protection requirements, with a reusability rate of more than 85 percent and a recyclable rate exceeding 95 percent, according to XPeng.[2][3]

The XPeng G9 has been developed using the same platform as the P7, for this reason, the wheelbase of both cars will be very similar, between 3 and 3.10 metres (3,000.0 and 3,100.0 mm; 118.1 and 122.0 in). Specifically, the XPeng G9 aims to compete directly against models such as the Tesla Model Y, the Nio ES7 and the Li One from Li Auto (based on the wheelbase, 3,000–3,100 mm will be directly competitive for Nio ES8 3,010 mm and Li One 3,010 mm).

The XPeng G9 is equipped with the centralized electronic and electrical architecture of XPeng and XPilot 4.0 advanced driver-assistance system in terms of advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS). The G9 is based on XPeng's own SiC dedicated EV platform making it compatible with the next-generation X-Power superchargers by XPeng for charging up to 200 kilometres (124 mi) in 5 minutes via the 800 volt architecture.[4] The G9 is built on two Nvidia Drive Orin systems-on-a-chip capable of 508 TOPS and delivers AI capabilities that Xmart OS could be continuously upgraded with each over-the-air update. It has the hardware capable of L4 autonomous driving. The G9 uses an 8 million pixel front-view camera and 2.9 megapixel cameras to cover the left and right sides of the vehicle as well as the front and rear views, with lidar sensors embedded in the headlights.[5]

The G9 shares its platform with Volkswagen's ID. UNYX 08.[6]

2025 refresh

The G9 received significant updates, including to its powertrain and ADAS system, on 6 March 2025. The exterior remains largely the same, but is now available with a Midnight Knight aesthetic package, new wheel rim options, and soft-close doors. The interior has a new Moon Shadow-Coffee color option, and the infotainment system now uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P SoC. The ADAS system has been upgraded to XPeng's latest Turing Ai system, first seen in the P7+ and notably does not use LiDAR sensors, instead relying on three 4D mmWave radars and 11 cameras using LOFIC technology. The G9's powertrain gets a major update, with the use of new battery packs capable 5C charging for 10–80% in 12 minutes on all variants. Additionally, the motors have been revised and output more power, and range ratings see a slight boost.[7][8][9][10][11]

2026 update

On 8 January 2026 XPeng updated the G9, giving it access to the company's latest ADAS system and infotainment software. The exterior is now available in a matte New Moon Silver paint option. It is now available with up to three of XPeng's self-developed Turing AI chips for up to 2250 TOPS of computing performance, allowing for use of the latest VLA model resulting in AEB and AES functionality at up to 130 km/h (81 mph). The infotainment system has been updated to the latest AIOS 6.0 infotainment software which integrates the company's latest AI assistants and features a new ADAS user interface, available to previous models via OTA update.[12][13][14]

Specifications

The G9 is available with rear-wheel drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrains. The base variant is driven by a 308 hp (230 kW; 312 PS) rear motor, and powered is supplied by a 78.2 kWh LFP battery pack supplied by EVE Energy providing a CLTC range of 570 km (354 mi). The battery has a peak charge rate of 260 kW, giving it 3C charging for 10–80% in 20 minutes. It can be upgraded with a larger 98 kWh NMC pack supplied by CALB providing 702 km (436 mi) of CLTC range, with a peak charge rate of 315 kW also giving it 3C charging for 10–80% in 20 minutes. The all-wheel drive version adds a 235 hp (175 kW; 238 PS) front induction motor for a total of 536 hp (400 kW; 543 PS), allowing for a claimed 0–100 km/h (62 mph) time of 3.9 seconds.

The G9's powertrain was upgraded in 2025, with increased power, range, and charging speeds. The batteries are now both LFP packs supplied CALB, and both are capable of 5C charging for 10–80% in 12 minutes. Power output of rear-wheel and all-wheel drive models increase to 346 and 567 hp (258 and 423 kW; 351 and 575 PS), respectively. Range of each variant increased, with the base variant seeing the biggest increase of 55 km (34 mi) to 625 km (388 mi) CLTC.[7][8][9][10][11]
