Xpeng PH to bring in 2 models this Sept.

Guangzhou: Xpeng Philippines is set to introduce two models to the country this coming September.

Without sharing much information, the local distributor revealed during the brand immersion activity that the L03 and X9 will be offered in the country in time for the marque's launch.

The full electric compact crossover—pegged to compete against the Tesla Model Y—will have an indicative pricing of less than P2 million. On the other hand, the premium battery-powered people mover —which will go wheel-to-wheel against the likes of the Denza D9 and Zeekr 009—will be offered at around P4.5 million.

While waiting for the brand’s arm in the country to bare its full specifications, here are some notable details about the two as seen in the company literature.

Xpeng L03

The Xpeng L03 is a battery electric vehicle (BEV) or range-extended electric vehicle (EREV) that comes in a coupe-style crossover body. 

Per Xpeng’s official website, it may either come as a rear-wheel-drive, single-motor variant with a range of 525 kilometers (km), according to the China Light-Duty Vehicle Test Cycle (CLTC). It also has fast-charging capability that can top up its battery from 10-80 percent in 20 minutes. 

The L03’s Long Range trim, on the other hand, gets an all-wheel-drive, dual-motor layout with a range of 625 km per CLTC, while boasting the same fast charging capability. 

Last but not least, the EREV version, which has a pure electric range of 315 km and a combined range of 1,330 km. 

Inside, the model features a wrap-around dashboard with a flat-top, flat-bottom steering wheel, hidden power-adjustable air vents, seat ventilation, 14-point front massage seats, a panoramic sunroof, and a power tailgate.

Positioned in the center of its dash is a 15.6-inch central touchscreen with built-in Google applications. This goes together with an 8.88-inch digital gauge cluster and a head-up display. 

As standard, the model comes with seven airbags and a slew of active safety features. Notable safety features include a smart tire blowout detection system, child presence detection, driver monitoring, the XPilot assisted driving and parking software, and many other advanced driver assist systems. 

Xpeng X9

Joining the L03 is the Xpeng X9 - a three-row multi-purpose vehicle with an all-electric range of up to 610 km, according to the CLTC. Topping up the X9 is done via a direct current (DC) port that can increase its state of charge from 10-80 percent in just 12 minutes. 

Ensuring ride quality for this model is a dual-chamber air suspension system with adaptive adjustment or six-level manual control. 

Notable on-board features of the X9 are headlined by the Starship First-Class Cabin design. This offers leather upholstery, second row captain seats, and a split-fold third row. All front and second row seats get ventilation, heating, and massage.
