Enter the 2025 XPeng G6, a car that’s not just a facelift but features improvements across the whole vehicle, 81 in total. And here’s the best part for Aussie EV buyers: it’s heading to international markets, with Australia on XPeng’s global expansion roadmap.

A Bold New Look with Thoughtful Refinements

The 2025 XPeng G6 is not just a mild refresh—it boasts 81 upgrades, with 34% of its primary components replaced to enhance both aesthetics and functionality. The exterior design is more refined, featuring a seamless full-width “galaxy light wing” LED light strip, a revised front grille, and an overall sleeker profile. The XPeng logo has been relocated to the hood, adding a premium touch. At the same time, the new black-finished, petal-style alloy wheels give it a more aggressive stance.

At the rear, a ducktail spoiler and a revamped bumper add a sportier feel. The vehicle retains its mid-size SUV dimensions, measuring 4,758 mm in length, 1,920 mm in width, and 1,650 mm in height, with a 2,890 mm wheelbase—numbers that position it firmly in the highly competitive mid-size EV SUV segment.

Inside the G6: Premium Comfort and Smart Tech

Inside, and XPeng has made it clear they’re targeting a high-end experience. The cabin now features a 15.6-inch floating infotainment screen, paired with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, offering a crisp, responsive interface. The steering wheel adopts a capacitive design, and a "galaxy rhythm" ambient lighting system enhances the premium feel.

One of the biggest interior upgrades is the front seats. XPeng has collaborated with medical experts to refine seat ergonomics, adding ventilation, heating, and a massage function that the company claims delivers “shiatsu-level” relief—perfect for long Australian road trips. Over 50% of the door panels are covered in leather, and a new ultra-fine suede headliner adds an extra touch of luxury.

The Heart of the Beast: AI-Driven Performance

The real game-changer for the 2025 G6 is what’s under the hood—XPeng’s proprietary AI-powered Turing Intelligent Driving System. This system, first introduced in the P7+, is now standard across all G6 models. Unlike some competitors who still rely on LiDAR, XPeng has opted for a pure vision-based approach, leveraging AI to provide advanced autonomous driving capabilities.

The single-motor configuration delivers 218 kW of power, ensuring a strong balance of efficiency and performance. Built on XPeng’s 800V high-voltage platform, the G6 features a 5C ultra-fast charging AI battery. For context, 5C charging theoretically allows the battery to fully charge in one-fifth of an hour, meaning significantly reduced wait times at charging stations—a crucial advantage for Australian drivers who frequently embark on long-distance trips.

Why This Matters for Australia

Australia’s EV market is heating up, with more consumers shifting towards electric SUVs for their practicality and efficiency. The G6’s ultra-fast charging capabilities and its AI-driven intelligent driving system could make it a compelling option for Aussies looking for a future-ready EV.

XPeng has ambitious global expansion plans, to enter over 60 markets. Given Australia’s growing appetite for high-tech, long-range EVs, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the G6 land Down Under sooner rather than later.
