XPeng has officially entered the Malaysian market, teaming up with local partner Bermaz to unveil its first model, the XPeng G6 electric SUV. The launch of the XPeng G6 has been eagerly awaited, and the new EV has arrived with a surprisingly lower price tag than initially estimated. Available in two variants, the XPeng G6 offers a range of features and options tailored for Malaysian drivers.
XPeng G6
The XPeng G6 is available in Malaysia at the following prices:
- XPeng G6 580 Pro: RM165,820
- XPeng G6 755 Pro: RM185,820
Customers can choose from a variety of exterior colors, including Midnight Black, Silver Frost, Arctic White, Graphite Gray, and Fiery Orange. The interior color options are Black and Gray, providing a sleek and customizable experience for buyers.
Both XPeng G6 variants come with a 5-year / 120,000 km warranty. Additionally, the electric SUV includes an 8-year / 160,000 km warranty for the high-voltage battery pack, offering peace of mind for new owners.
The G6 variants available in Malaysia feature a rear-wheel drive (RWD) configuration. Despite sharing the same drivetrain setup, the two models differ in power output and range capabilities.
- XPeng G6 580 Pro: Equipped with a 190 kW (255 hp) electric motor.
- XPeng G6 755 Pro: Features a more powerful 210 kW (282 hp) motor.
Both models deliver a peak torque of 440 Nm and can reach a top speed of 200 km/h. When it comes to acceleration, the G6 755 Pro, also known as the Long Range (LR) variant, is faster, going from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.2 seconds. The G6 580 Pro, or Standard Range (SR) variant, follows closely with a 0-100 km/h time of 6.6 seconds.
The G6 580 Pro is powered by a 66 kWh LFP battery, providing a WLTP-rated range of up to 435 km. On the other hand, the G6 755 Pro comes with an 87.5 kWh NMC battery, offering a significantly higher range of up to 570 km. This makes the G6 755 Pro ideal for drivers who need longer range and higher performance.
Thanks to the G6’s 800V architecture, both variants support impressive DC fast charging speeds. The G6 580 Pro (SR) model can charge at up to 215 kW, while the G6 755 Pro (LR) can handle even faster speeds of up to 280 kW. This allows both models to charge from 10% to 80% in just 20 minutes, making them convenient for long-distance travel.
For AC charging, the G6 variants are equipped with an 11 kW 3-phase AC onboard charger. According to Bermaz, it takes approximately 7.5 hours to fully charge the SR variant from 5% to 100%, while the LR model requires around 9.5 hours for a full charge using AC power.
Pokdepinion: The arrival of the XPeng G6 in Malaysia marks an exciting new chapter for the brand and for EV enthusiasts in the country. With competitive pricing, strong performance, and robust charging capabilities, the XPeng G6 is set to make a significant impact in the Malaysian EV market.
