It used to be “The US gets all the good stuff.” Increasingly, it feels like “China gets all the good stuff.” The news this week is that China’s getting a wicked compelling, competitive new electric coupe SUV — the XPeng G6. This is “the first production model built under its next-generation vehicle technology architecture SEPA 2.0.” Funny enough, the US doesn’t even get the official video about the G6 as quickly as China — we’re getting it a day later.
He Xiaopeng notes that the G6’s design is based on a water droplet, an interesting and beautiful inspiration. It also includes a new “roboface” or “robot face.” He also references a “lightsaber” in the headlight design. Have a closer look: After the explanation of why the G6’s handling is better than a million-dollar sports car’s, some very important stuff on safety, and some very important stuff on efficiency, He Xiaopeng notes that when tested in Norway along with many other EVs, XPeng’s G9 and P7 exceeded their range ratings whereas all other competing EVs underperformed in this category except for the Mercedes EQE SUV, which was right on the mark. Additionally, the G9 offered the most range of them all — 588 km .
Not using HD maps, XPeng will roll out AI Valet Driver mode in the second half of this year. Among other things, the AI Valet Driver will actually learn some of your own driving habits! Now we’re getting to serious AI driver education and self-driving.
