Chinese carmaker XPeng unveiled on Friday the refreshed version of its SUV model G6, describing it as a full-scale upgrade with changes to exterior, interior, and configuration.
The vehicle will be launched in early March when pricing will be announced, and deliveries in China will begin.
The front of the vehicle now features a continuous light bar, replacing the previous design where the brand’s logo interrupted the lighting. At the rear, the design has been updated with a new spoiler, a ducktail, and a C-shaped accent on the bumper.
The cabin includes a fully upgraded three-screen layout, featuring a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, a 15.6-inch floating central control screen, a digital rearview mirror, and a newly designed ambient lighting system.
All variants of the G6 come standard with Turing AI intelligent driving and 5C super-fast charging. The front seats feature ventilation, heating, and massage functions, with XPeng claiming the strongest shiatsu-style massage in its class. Wireless charging areas have been upgraded with softer materials.
European Expansion
XPeng said earlier this week it is expanding into Poland through a partnership with local distributor Inchcape. In a statement, the brand says the country has become its largest market in Central and Eastern Europe.
The company’s expansion follows its January announcement of entry into Ireland and Finland, as it targets availability in 60 markets by year-end. Year to date, XPeng shares have surged 86% and are currently trading at $22.53.
In Q2, XPeng will launch in Switzerland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia.
