With useful features, a smart and practical cockpit as well as a technology stack that makes day-to-day driving easy and effortless, the Xpeng G6 RWD Standard Range perfectly combines traits that appeal to those looking to enter the world of electric vehicles (EVs). Priced from just RM158,888, the latest G6 is built on Xpeng’s advanced SEPA 2.0 platform with an 800-volt electrical architecture. This enables 5C ultra-fast charging, with a 10-80% state of charge achieved with just 12 minutes of being plugged into a DC charger. Fully charged, the safe and highly efficient lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery provides up to 480 km of range, with the figure being based on the more realistic WLTP standard. That’s more than enough for the daily drive and even the trip outstation. If you’re planning for that long trip, the new G6 pampers you with its lounge-like interior featuring premium seat upholstery and XOpera surround sound system. The airy cabin with its 86.5% space efficiency is also highlighted by the large panoramic glass roof that is heat insulated and comes with a sunshade to maintain comfort levels. On that mention, the new G6 offers best-in-class rear legroom with a near-flat floor and occupants will have 18 smart storage spaces to use. For larger items, the rear boot that normally provides 571 litres of space can be expanded to 1,374 litres so the occasional furniture or two isn’t a problem. On the technology front, the new MTK8676 chip improves upon the SA8155P used in the previous G6 in terms of CPU, GPU and NPU computing power. The more powerful “brain” of the G6 drives the Xmart OS smart cockpit that is represented by a 15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen and includes full-scene voice control for convenient access to an intelligent, full-scene voice control system. The new chip also enhances advanced driver assistance systems that make up the XPilot Assist suite, enabling quicker detection of parking spaces with Automatic Parking Assist engaged. Additionally, the Adaptive Cruise Control works more consistently with Lane Centring Control in more conditions, with other standard functions included being Adaptive Turning Cruise, Forward Collision Warning, Autonomous Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Detection and more. The comprehensive suite means you’re getting a host of useful functions as standard, which is unlike some other brands that gatekeep certain functions behind a paywall. With over-the-air (OTA) updates, future upgrades can be implemented easily into the G6. Ownership is also kept low with the 18-inch wheels that require less expensive tyres. With all these advantages, the G6 RWD Standard Range is exceptional value by being priced from just RM158,888. To sweeten things further, a special RM10,000 Raya rebate is being offered on top of a choice of one of two rewards: a complimentary 11-kW AC wallbox charger worth RM5,000 or two years free unlimited charging by JomCharge worth over RM10,000. Either one are a perfect welcome gift as you kickstart your EV journey.
