The Xpeng G6 is the Chinese company’s electric SUV riposte to not just the (visually very similar) Tesla Model Y, but also to various Audi, BMW and Mercedes models, because Xpeng wants to be taken seriously as a premium-level brand. You can see that seriousness in the G6’s impressive cabin quality, as well as its performance, but it has a way to go to match the best European cars when it comes to handling. Solid range from the LFP batteries, though, along with ultra-fast 451kW DC charging.
