A few days after having officially unveiled the first model of its new, cheaper MONA series, XPeng is gearing up to launch the P7+, its biggest and most advanced sedan.
Codenamed (until now) F57, the new sedan P7+ exceeds 5 meters with the “+” representing XPeng’s latest technology and larger size. Although the price is still unknown, it is expected to be higher than the P7 sedan given its larger size and better technology.
As the brand celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, XPeng says the P7+ is the “culmination of its advanced technology over the past decade, ushering in a new era for the intelligent future of the next ten years”.
The P7+ will become the first model from the brand that doesn’t use LiDAR technology. Instead, it employs an end-to-end pure vision solution akin to Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD), which was recently tested in California by the CEO He Xiaopeng.
NEVER MISS AN UPDATE
The company delivered of 10,668 electric vehicles in June, representing a 24 percent increase year-over-year. Despite not providing the breakdown of monthly sales per model, the company said its three-row MPV X9 has accounted for 1,687 units.
In the first half of the year, XPeng delivered 52,028 vehicles, an increase of 26 percent from last year. The EV maker said that, during the third quarter of the year, it will release “a major upgrade” to its AI-powered in-car operating system AI Tianji OS.
The company has recently announced its expansion into the Egyptian market with the launch of two electric models from its portfolio including the flagship SUV Xpeng G9, and the sedan Xpeng P7.
Both models will be available for delivery to the Egyptian market starting from the end of this month, marking Xpeng’s first foray into the African continent.
