    Not even the Chinese likes the idea of a car brand fully named after it's founder. It's like driving a car named Henry Ford or Elon Musk.

    • +10

      You mean like driving a Ford? Yeah no one will drive those…

      • -4

        you forgot the Henry part mate. Xiao Peng is exactly that.

        • It's a losing battle mate, no need to fight. Half the users here are clearly Chinese and want Chinese brands to do well in Australia, even though they buy BMWs.

          • @smartProverble: Not sure why i'm getting negged by stating facts. Ford as a brand is not branded "Henry Ford" using the full name. You don't drive a bloody Henry Ford. But you are driving a "Xiao Peng" the guys middle and last name.

            • @Creamsoda: Close, but his first name is Xiaopeng (Chinese don’t have middle names) and his surname is He

  • +7

    Pretty xpengsive for a Tesla model Y clone, might as well buy the Tesla.

    • -1

      If you look at the build, features and the interior, Tesla would charge another 50% for it.

      • Yeah but they give you extras like larger panel gaps.

    • Unless the clone has heaps more features interior

  • -2

    Wow, Thanks for this post OP, Was waiting for so long for the Pricing information.
    I am very excited for Xpeng G6, Ordering one.

    • +14

      Nice try Xpeng staff

  • Decent release price and if the other Chinese brands are any guide, they will cut the price massively later.

  • +10

    I'd say at least wait couple of months, car will probably be 10k cheaper.

    • I won’t think so, the prices are driven by the import and the tax as well.

  • Who supplies the NCM battery for the long range model?
    If it's Farasis energy, then we should avoid (if not banned at all).

    • CATL?

    • should avoid any battery not LiFePO4 if you ask me. I prefer my barbeques in a pit, and myself not being the sizzling meat.

    Seems like ozbargainers will upvote anything with 4 wheels.

    I worked in China for two years and bought an XPeng G3 in 2019, the very first generation. The handling was just okay, so be careful when you turn the steering wheel a bit faster, but everything else was fine. I paid around $25,000 since the Chinese government covered the other half, they were really encouraging people to buy EVs back then. I drove about 80% of the time on the highway, which is super convenient in China because there are charging stations almost every 30-40 km on the highway. I'd buy another one if it's $25,000.

    • Maybe NSW gov. should have some EV subsidies.

      It’s just that everyone is moving to EV, aussies aren’t.

      • In terms of federal government policy, EVs gets fringe benefit tax exemption, which is quite a substantial subsidy for those on higher tax brackets.

        • Only for novated lease right? Perhaps only worth if you earn 190k+?

      • -2

        I'll move if some genius comes out with a model built by an established manufacturer, with LiFePO4 batteries that don't light up randomly, with good long range, and stuff all bling. I don't need 0-100 faster than my old GT falcon, or twice the power…. I reckon that's ludicrous.
        The time will come when such a thing is available….cheap.

  • LOL, select collect from Xpeng Perth but they it says Xpeng doesn't exist there and will be delivered to your house.

  • +9

    I agree with the consensus on here, can't see it selling when it's so closely priced to the Model Y. If it was mid-40s it would be a different story (and may well end up there given the aggressive price drops that have already been happening with the MG ZS EV, the MG4, and the GWM Ora…)

    • +1

      Equivalent Model Y is 10 grand more? More if you want it in something not white. Then the extras you have to pay for. I think the G6 has a auto driving feature (not as advanced as Tesla I think) that is free, the software updates are free, no subscription, interior has more features, and for people that like stalks and buttons, there is enough of those. I think there is a bit of value here. And it is all one price, not hidden behind upgrades and subscriptions.

      But what I do agree with is that this thing is likely to be cheaper in 6 months. But then so is any car that is getting released to the market.

      • +1

        Base model Model Y is $58k + on roads for 2024 model (although they were clearing out new old stock 2023s for the low 50s recently). Not sure how you get to $10k more!

        • -1

          Click through the Tesla purchase process and you will find every option starts adding more and more $ to the price.

  • +2

    Haven't heard of this brand, Exterior - not my type, Interior - quality looks good on the pictures. Almost $60k in WA just too expensive for a new brand, if the brand withdraw from Australia market, parts and warranty can be an issue for the owners.

    • if the brand withdraw from Australia market, parts and warranty can be an issue for the owners.

      Yep. A lot of VW owners are not going to be happy when they go bust in two years.

  • +4

    I think the good thing from the massive influx of cars especially from China will be that buyer's will be the kings (and queens).

    Brands will be forced to compete and offer sharper pricing. And if you love established brands and are in the market, maybe wait for a bit because I am sure that we will get a slew of cost corrections soon.

    • The risk is that owners will be broken or suffering nervous breakdowns.. if the inevitable occasional mechanical failure or collision finds that spares are priced like unobtainium… something folks never talk about.

      • Do you mean that for the new cars like this one? If so, yes 100%…..Unless they have planned for spares to be flown in.

        Btw I am not advocating anything about this car. Simply that soon it will be a car buyer's market.

        • For any new car, EV or ICE, that has a low market share. Not only effecting running costs, but also resale value.

  • Just asking, i have a garage with power outlet. Don't drive long range with around 50km/day. Is there anything else should prevent me buying an EV? not this EV, too expensive for me, just any cheaper EV. Or i should get hybrid/PHEV or ICE instead?

    • -1

      You are the exact PHEV demographic - nothing to stop you going full EV either though

      • +6

        at 50km per day, there is absolutely no case for hybrid…. you'd be driving round carrying a lot of heavy junk you don't need, while suffering a reduced range.

    • +5

      around 50km/day

      Just plug it into your normal 240V wall socket and away you go :)

    • +8

      50km is easily charged overnight on a standard 10A wall outlet.

      • +1

        This is the right answer

    • +6

      Forget hybrid if you aren't doing lots of long distance highway trips….. for your specs a simple straight EV would be ideal.

    • +1

      You could buy a Tesla. Park it in your garage at night, plug it into a standard power point and never have to visit a petrol station again. Or get your car serviced for years.

      Even a standard power point will replace that 50km usage in maybe 6hours.

      If you have solar the car will cost nothing to run.

    • It is great to get an EV. Not sure about PHEV but if you just want A to B car the MG4 base model is great. My partner uses EV for 3 days a week commuting to work about 40km round trip, we charge the car once a week during the day in summer and offpeak in winter. Cost like $2/100km if we charge during offpeak. And yes we just use wall socket with a smart plug for scheduling.

      EV general consumption is about 16-20kwh/100km, on a 10amp charger, it will take 7-10hrs to get 100km of range

  • Who can explain to me why the long range has a longer range and is a bit quicker?

    • +1

      210kW vs 190kW motor

      • +1

        Why does the long range version have a longer range?

  • +14

    Tesla Model Y drivetrain would be so much more refined and software woudl be so much better in a Tesla, you have to be crazy to want to buy a Xpeng, price should be 20% cheaper to even consider and that woudl still be risky. Not all these new Chinese brands can survive in Australia, some will startup and fold in a few years. Non of them are profitable except for BYD which just barley makes a profit, that is not sustainable. Look at Fisker is USA, they went bankrupt and all vehicles are basically worthless with zero factory support.

    • +1

      Fisker is a fair bit smaller than many of these Chinese companies. Even XPeng has delivered 10x more vehicles than Fisker did, in a shorter period. BYD is on a whole other level.

      • +1

        A company doesn't have to fold, to decide to walk away from a regional market.

      • +2

        Xpeng is not profitable, they started in 2016 from what i can read. There are 119 Electric car companies in China. Is that sustainable?, No, 90% of them will die eventually. Xpeng surviving in the Australian market is still a huge risk. Why would someone take that risk on a 60K purchase.

        • I don’t disagree, and never said I did. Xpeng and fisker are both risky purchases, as are almost all of those 119 Chinese brands.

          I would buy BYD or MG though. Those are much more stable and supported than the others.

    • +1

      The model y has one of the most uncomfortable ride over bumps. The polestar 2 is much better but not by much.

    • +3

      Tesla Model Y drivetrain would be so much more refined

      Are you sure?

      • I haven't tried it myself, but saw an early Australian review. It doesn't have 1 pedal driving, it wont come to a full stop without pressing brake. Steering feel is apparently very lifeless, not much feedback. I have a model 3 and that's regarded as an excellent car to drive, it is great, not much can beat it in its price range. Excellent drivetrain and software is well regarded as Tesla's strong points. Model Y is good too, not as good as a model 3 though.

        • +6

          You are kidding yourself if you think the model y is a good riding car. Get those Tesla blinker off.

          • @ChickenAdobo: I have YLR and yes the most comfortable ride. I ain’t driving byd nor volvo. Yes I test drove both. Easiest decision. My question, do you have tesla Y? Or you just read that.

            • @Fredfloresjr: Hired a model y from sixt for the 24 hours. I’m judging the car from personal experience.

          • @ChickenAdobo: Either you’ve never driven any EV cars, or you’re lying. I’m not saying it’s smooth as butter, but cmon… I can take you on my Y for a ride if you are from sydney, at 4.4secs 1-100kmh, with the power of torque, you’ll be the judge. But Jesus. I ain’t coming back to ICE.

            • @Fredfloresjr: I have an ev and own one. Driven an Atto 3, mg4 and model y. A back passenger of an Kia ev6, polestar 2 and model 3 previous generation

  • -5

    Give me a teardown guide to disconnect cellular and satellite connections, and I’ll happily buy this car.

  • Solid car, so much more advanced features than Tesla, they suck at market their vehicles. In the US even with 100% of unfair tariffs l, the Chinese brands remain competitive.

    • +6

      What sort of features do they have that are "so much more advanced?"

    • +1

      In the US even with 100% of unfair tariffs l, the Chinese brands remain competitive.

      Yeah of course they do. They are 100% more expensive than they should be in the American market

  • +3

    The standard range isn't great competition for the Y given they are within $3k and the Y has slightly better range and of course the best value proposition being the Supercharger network. The Y is worth the premium in that case. The long range is interesting though. Just over $2K more than the Y standard range with comfortably more range as well.

    Standard Y: $60.9k driveaway in NSW (455km)
    Standard G6: $57.9k driveaway in NSW (435km)
    LR G6: $63.1k driveaway in NSW (570km)
    LR Y: $75.6k driveaway in NSW (533km)

    Interesting to see paint and interior colours appear to be free on the Xpeng

    All that said, I think the G9 is the one I would have my eye on

    • yeah G9 or the Leapmotors C16

    • the G9 looks VERY nice, but still only 5 seats?

    • LR Y is dual motors, bigger battery, fast acceleration. Xping is just bigger battery

      • You forgot all the other stuff the Xpeng comes with, go Google it

      • +3

        G6 also runs the newer 800v architecture so it charges faster and has longer range as well. I'd say most people won't value the AWD and faster acceleration at $15k. Most people would probably value faster charging, longer range and being substantially cheaper though

        • +3

          800v doesn’t automatically mean faster charging. Charge curve, thermals and efficiency matter much more.

          Not saying the G6 isn’t faster, I don’t know if it is, but 800v is only an advantage when it’s taken advantage of.

  • -1

    thats one ugly ass

    • +1

      hey! stop looking at my ass!

    • shame it looks so close to the Y and that's hardly a handsome car to start with.

  • +1

    Bet that this will go down by $5k at least in the next month if not weeks once they found out not many bites.

  • +2

    Just not sure why someone would buy this over a "Y"….?

    • I found the model y too harsh over bumps. Hopefully this G6 is a better drive.

      • +1

        Apparently it is. Waiting for wider reviews tho

    • +1

      resale value?
      hang on… perhaps not!

    • Yeah baby Y all day. Looks, the app, tesla network infrastructure, the on-road assistance through app, the proven reliability (haters would say otherwise - camry owners).

      Xpheng might have Thanos, who knows.

    • More range per dollar. 🤷‍♂️

  • how are you gonna price your car more expensive than a tesla equivalent model Y smh, im comparing the range to the higher range model as thats closer in range to the tesla base model

    • Another DOA!

      • yeh ok a mere few grands lower is not gonna cut it, tesla has the software, and infestructure still, it needs to be a good 10-15k lower then the gold standard "tesla" to have a chance to compete, think of the MG and what their doing with the specials they are running

    • +3

      Huh? The long range G6 has more range then the LR Y. The LR G6 is a fair bit cheaper then the LR Y.

      LR G6 makes sense, assuming it is also a good car. Standard G6 is too expensive.

      • LFP batteries degrade at a slower pace and you can charge it to 100%

        • True. But what's your point? Y LR and G6 LR is NMC.

          • @Aureus: i was responding to your last statement "Standard G6 is too expensive…"
            I agree, but I assume pre-orders for the Standard G6 was over-represented because of the battery chemistry.

      • +2

        LR Y is all wheel drive with 30% more power output and G6 is only rare wheel drive

    • The base G6 has enhanced autopilot features baked into the software. The model y you have to pay up.

      • we know model y is one of the safest cars around, what about the g6?

        • 5 star encap rating in Europe.
