XPeng has launched an extended-range version of the G6 SUV at 186,800 yuan ($27,080), adding a 1.5-liter turbocharged range extender to the electric powertrain. The company claims a combined range of 1,704 km (full tank plus charged battery), calling it the "longest-range SUV globally."
Pure electric range on the 55.8 kWh battery reaches 430 km. The 800-volt platform enables 5C supercharging, adding 314 km of range in 12 minutes. That's the electric portion doing double duty: fast charging for short trips, range extender for long drives.
Autonomous Driving Tiers
The G6 EREV carries XPeng's second-generation VLA large model with in-house autonomous driving chips. The Max version runs a single Turing AI chip at 750 TOPS. The Ultra SE upgrade adds a second chip for 12,000 yuan. The top configuration runs three chips totaling 2,250 TOPS for near-Level 4 capability at an additional 20,000 yuan.
Safety features include automatic emergency braking active up to 130 km/h and stable driving after tire blowout at up to 180 km/h.
Pricing Context
The all-electric 2026 G6 starts at 176,800 yuan, launched in January. The EREV costs 10,000 yuan more, which is a modest premium for the range extender flexibility. Orders placed through the end of March include benefit packages worth up to 33,200 yuan, effectively narrowing the gap to near-parity with the BEV version.
XPeng's move into extended-range follows the market trend set by Li Auto and increasingly adopted by NIO (through Onvo). The Chinese EV market has decided that range anxiety is best solved with a backup engine, and XPeng is no longer fighting that consensus.
