First Look at the XPENG G6

We were recently joined by Winston Sharpe from Brindley Fleet, who gave us an exclusive first look at one of the most talked-about new electric vehicles hitting the UK market — the XPENG G6. And what a car it is.

This sleek, coupe-styled SUV is a clear statement of intent from XPENG, the rapidly growing Chinese EV manufacturer aiming to take on the likes of Tesla, Hyundai and Polestar. After spending some time up close with the G6, we can confidently say it's one of the most exciting all-electric vehicles to arrive on UK roads in recent years.

What is the XPENG G6?

The XPENG G6 is an all-electric mid-size SUV built on the brand’s next-generation SEPA 2.0 architecture, designed for performance, safety, and smart connectivity. With sharp styling, a tech-laden interior, and a focus on driver comfort, it’s clear this car has been engineered with both practicality and innovation in mind.

It’s available in both rear-wheel drive (RWD) and all-wheel drive (AWD) variants, giving drivers a choice between range optimisation and added performance.

The G6 has already drawn comparisons to the Tesla Model Y — and for good reason. The dimensions, driving dynamics and feature set put it in direct competition, but with a few unique touches that help it stand out.

Key Highlights of the XPENG G6

• Fast Charging: Thanks to its 800V architecture, the G6 supports ultra-fast charging. You can get from 10% to 80% in under 20 minutes using a high-speed charger — ideal for drivers on the go.

• Impressive Range: The long-range RWD model boasts a WLTP range of up to 354 miles, giving it real practicality for both city driving and longer journeys.

• Driver-Centric Technology: Inside, the G6 features a minimalist yet premium cabin layout, with a central touchscreen, intelligent voice controls, and XPENG’s advanced driver assistance system.

• Smart Driving Experience: XPENG’s in-house developed XNGP system (navigation guided pilot) brings a level of semi-autonomous driving that rivals the very best in the industry.

• Performance: The AWD version can sprint from 0–62mph in just 4.1 seconds, making it more than capable of delivering a thrilling drive.

First Impressions

Winston's visit gave us the opportunity to explore the vehicle in detail — from its panoramic glass roof to its striking front light bar, the G6 leaves a lasting impression. The build quality, use of materials, and attention to detail are excellent, and it’s clear XPENG is not cutting corners in its quest to compete on a global scale.
