XPeng put its Mauritius launch on its global X account on Wednesday, two weeks after its distributor opened a dedicated showroom on the island and three and a half months after the G6 and X9 went on sale there.
Mauritius marks the company’s first market in the Indian Ocean and its second in Africa after its arrival in Egypt.
The country drives on the left, so the cars are right-hand-drive, as in Britain, Australia and Southeast Asia.
“Mauritius, welcome to XPENG,” the post read. “A night where technology came to life through light, sound, and intelligent mobility. The XPENG G6 and X9 took center stage, bringing our vision of future mobility closer to the local community. A new milestone in our global journey.”
The showroom was inaugurated in late August at Bagatelle Motor City.
The post is the first mention of Mauritius on XPeng’s global account since December 26, when the company announced it had signed a distributor for the island.
In the same post, the brand declared its formal entry into Qatar, described the opening of a regional parts warehouse in Dubai and showrooms in Abu Dhabi and Cairo, and said its “MEA journey is cruising along nicely.”
The Launch
XPeng’s Mauritian distributor is Axess Ltd, the automotive arm of the ENL Group, now trading as ER Group, which was founded in 1989, sells Suzuki, Ford, Mazda, Isuzu, Jaguar, Land Rover, Citroën and Peugeot, and claims about 29% of the country’s new-vehicle market. XPeng is its ninth brand.
The distribution agreement was signed on December 16, 2025.
Axess announced the brand’s arrival on May 29 with the G6 coupé SUV and the X9 seven-seat MPV, and with a promise of two or three further models before the year end.
“We are not just introducing a new Chinese electric car brand, we are introducing a new way of thinking about mobility,” managing director Stéphane Chasteau de Balyon said then. “Mauritian consumers are increasingly tech-savvy and demanding, and XPENG meets these expectations in a way few manufacturers can match today.”
The showroom, in the former Peugeot space at Axess’s Motor City campus in Moka.
XPeng’s Mauritian site lists the two models, takes quote and test-drive requests, and gives the Motor City address and Axess’s contact details for sales and aftersales.
Prices
Axess lists the G6 from Rs 2,595,000, about $56,000, for the rear-wheel-drive Standard version with a 185 kW motor, rising through a Long Range at Rs 2,850,000 and an all-wheel-drive Performance at Rs 3,095,000 to a Performance Black Edition at Rs 3,140,000.
The X9 is listed at about Rs 4,495,000, about $98,000. Prices are on-road excluding insurance and subject to exchange rates.
Axess quotes a five-year or 120,000 km vehicle warranty and eight years or 160,000 km on the battery. Those figures are from Axess’s listings as compiled and should be confirmed on xpeng.mu before publication.
At those prices XPeng sits at the premium end of a market where Axess also sells the Citroën ë-C3 and where BYD, through another importer, has grown fastest among Chinese brands.
XPeng was present in 68 countries and regions as of August 31, delivered about 49,400 vehicles overseas in the first eight months of 2026, past its 2025 total of 45,008, and exported 8,125 in August, up 169% from a year earlier.
He Xiaopeng’s targets are 1 million overseas sales a year and 70% of profit from outside China by 2030. In Africa the company is in Egypt and Mauritius and has named South Africa and Kenya as next-stage targets, with no dates.
