XPeng G9L Launch Brings 800V Charging and 1,602 km Range

XPeng G9L Launches With Six Variants

On September 17, XPeng Inc announced the official launch of the all-new XPeng G9L mid-to-large SUV. The model is offered with either a battery-electric or Super Range Extender powertrain across six variants priced from CNY 241,800 to CNY 319,800. Limited-time promotional prices range from CNY 231,800 to CNY 309,800. The SUV measures 5,120 mm in length, 1,999 mm in width, and 1,782 mm in height, with a 3,100 mm wheelbase. The launch expands XPeng's large-SUV lineup with two distinct powertrain configurations designed to address different driving and range requirements.

BEV Versions Combine 800V Architecture With Fast Charging

The battery-electric version is offered in four variants, all using an 800 V high-voltage platform and a 5C ultra-fast-charging AI battery as standard. The all-wheel-drive configuration combines a front AC induction motor rated at 160 kW and 230 Nm with a rear permanent magnet synchronous motor producing 270 kW and 465 Nm. Maximum system output reaches 430 kW, while peak system torque is 695 Nm. Depending on battery configuration, 0-to-100 km/h acceleration takes 4.45 or 4.6 seconds, top speed is 200 km/h, and the 110/91.9 kWh battery provides a CLTC EV-mode range of 755/660 km.

AWD and 2WD Electric Specifications

For the all-wheel-drive BEV, CLTC energy consumption is rated at 16.2/16.1 kWh per 100 km, while DC fast charging from 10% to 80% state of charge takes as little as 11.7/10.7 minutes. A 12-minute charging session can add up to 530/490 km of range. The two-wheel-drive version uses a rear permanent magnet synchronous motor with 270 kW of maximum power and 465 Nm of peak torque. It reaches 100 km/h from rest in 6.8 seconds and has a 200 km/h top speed. Its 91.9 kWh battery provides a 702 km CLTC EV-mode range with energy consumption of 14.9 kWh/100 km.

Two Super Range Extender Variants Add Long-Distance Capability

The Super Range Extender version is available in two variants, both using an all-wheel-drive layout. Each combines a 1.5T high-efficiency turbocharged and intercooled range extender with a 160 kW/230 Nm front AC induction motor and a 210 kW/465 Nm rear permanent magnet synchronous motor. Maximum system power reaches 370 kW and peak system torque is 695 Nm. Both variants accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.95 seconds and reach a top speed of 200 km/h. They also use an 800 V high-voltage platform and a 63.3 kWh 5C ultra-fast-charging AI battery as standard.

Range Extender Delivers 1,602 km Combined CLTC Range

The Super Range Extender configuration provides a CLTC EV-mode range of 435 km and a CLTC combined range of 1,602 km, with energy consumption rated at 16.7 kWh per 100 km. DC fast charging from 10% to 80% state of charge takes as little as 10.7 minutes, while a 12-minute charging session can add up to 322 km of range. These specifications give the range-extender variants a combination of electric driving capability and extended overall range, while retaining the same 800 V charging architecture and 5C battery technology used across the electric-focused configurations.

AI Hardware Supports Advanced Driver Assistance

All variants use Turing AI chips, with some configurations featuring three chips capable of delivering up to 2,250 TOPS of effective computing power. For driver assistance, the SUV uses XPeng's latest second-generation VLA system. The on-device model has 3.5 times more parameters than its preceding version, supporting functions that include urban driving assistance, highway driving assistance, and parking-space-to-parking-space driving assistance. The combination of dedicated AI computing hardware and an expanded on-device model gives the vehicle a technology-focused driver-assistance architecture across its new SUV range.

Production Expands Across China and Europe

XPeng stated that production will take place in Guangzhou, China, and Graz, Austria. The model will therefore become the company's fourth vehicle to be produced in Europe. XPeng also plans to launch the new SUV in 64 markets worldwide, extending the vehicle's intended availability beyond its initial production locations. The European production plan adds another manufacturing base for the company as it prepares to introduce the model across international markets, while the planned market rollout indicates that the vehicle is being positioned as a global product rather than a model limited to one region.

Global Launch Set for Paris Motor Show

The company has scheduled the global launch event for October 12 at the Paris Motor Show. The event is expected to provide the next major presentation point for the vehicle's international rollout and its planned availability across 64 markets. The combination of Chinese and European production, multiple powertrain choices, high-voltage charging technology, long-range specifications, and AI-enabled driver assistance gives the new model several technical attributes that will be presented as part of its global introduction. Further market-specific details, including the timing and configuration of availability in individual markets, remain tied to the planned international launch.

Industry Impact & Outlook

The launch expands competition in the mid-to-large SUV segment by combining battery-electric and range-extender configurations with 800 V charging, high-output motors, extended CLTC range, and AI-based driver assistance. Production in China and Austria also gives XPeng a manufacturing footprint aligned with its planned 64-market rollout. The most immediate areas to watch are the vehicle's international launch at the Paris Motor Show, market-specific specifications and pricing, and how the two powertrain approaches are positioned across different regions. The planned European production is particularly relevant to the company's broader international expansion because it provides an additional manufacturing location for a model intended for global distribution.
