From EV Review Ireland.
We’re revisiting the XPENG G6 to answer a crucial question: is the pre-facelift model, now available for an incredible price starting at €39,990 for the standard range, a better value than waiting for the updated version?
While the new model boasts over 80 improvements, including faster 5C charging (10-80% in 12 minutes) and updated aesthetics like a full light bar and body-colored cladding, the current version is a phenomenal electric SUV for under €40k.
We break down the differences and put the current model’s range, suspension, and ADAS to the test on country roads and motorways.
Find out if you should grab this aggressively priced G6 now or hold out for the 2026 model year update!
