The company broke the NAF charging record by reaching up to 319kW of peak capacity, delivering the test's highest average charging power at 212 kW. Moreover, both the G9 flagship SUV, and the new P7 sports sedan swept the top two spots in the range test in terms of real-world deviation rate to their WLTP range.
In the NAF Summer Test 2023, 32 EVs, including traditional luxury brands and top-selling EV marques such as Tesla and BYD, were tested for range and charging speed. The XPeng G9 and new XPeng P7 achieved impressive ranges of 588 km and 557 km, respectively, with a range deviation rate of 113% and 110.3%, winning the top two spots. According to NAF's report, the range test was conducted under nice weather and optimal summer conditions, while only one-third of the electric cars tested had an achieved range that exceeded its WLTP figure.
The XPeng G9 sent for testing was the 4WD performance version, equipped with a 3C battery. In the charging capacity test, the G9 broke the NAF historical record by reaching a peak charging power of 319 kW. It also achieved an average charging power of 212 kW - the highest in NAF's history. The G9 was also the fastest to reach a range of 200 kilometres, using only 8.4 minutes, according to NAF's calculation. The company says that these results demonstrate the superior performance of XPeng smart EVs compared to their competitors in the current EV market.
