History
The Xpeng G3 mass production version was unveiled during the January 2018 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. According to Xiaopeng Motors, G3 stood for Geek3, and that the name was chosen after a crowd-sourced naming contest.[6] The Xpeng G3 is actually the second batch production car, also known as the Xpeng 2.0. The XPeng 1.0 was the limited run first-edition pre-production run of 15 cars reserved for founders and investors called the Xpeng Identity X revealed in 2017.[citation needed]
(As of October 2017), the mass production Xpeng G3 crossover output was planned to be 190 hp, good for a top speed of 170 kilometers per hour. The Xpeng G3 was planned to be equipped with a 47.6 kWh battery with a claimed range of 300 kilometres (190 mi) and 0-100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration in 8.2 seconds for the front wheel drive version and 5.8 seconds for the 4WD version. The electric motor was planned to be 187 hp (139 kW) and is located over the front axle.[7] Prices of the Xpeng G3[when?] ranges from 227,300 yuan to 257,300 yuan.[8][full citation needed]

The original model[which?] was upgraded to a 50.5 kWh battery giving a range of 401 kilometres (249 mi). Performance has decreased from the original version, with acceleration of 0-100 kmh (62 mph) in 8.5 seconds and 8.6 seconds for the long range model.[10]
