- Xpeng will sell the second-generation P7 with 74.9 kWh and 92.92 kWh battery packs.
- The long-range rear-wheel drive model has a quoted range of 509 miles (820 km).
- Inside is an 87-inch AR head-up display and a central screen that tilts toward the driver.
New details and images have surfaced of Xpeng’s innovative P7 sports sedan, and as earlier glimpses suggested, it stands apart from anything else currently on the EV market. While sedans aren’t selling in the numbers they once did, models like the Xiaomi SU7 and the new Xpeng P7 prove there’s still strong interest in cars like these.

The exterior design of the new P7 is radical, to say the least. Its exterior design feels like a deliberate departure, with cues that seem to echo elements of the Tesla Cybertruck. The front fascia features a sharp full-width LED light bar, flanked by vertical daytime running lights for a dramatic first impression. Around back, the theme continues with a matching light bar, vertically stacked taillights, and a swooping rear glass that replaces the usual trunk lid structure.
Tech and Driver-Focused Dash
Perhaps of more interest than the exterior of the P7 is the interior, showcased in these new photos for the first time. The sedan comes with the same massive 87-inch augmented reality head-up display that Xiaomi recently premiered on the G7 SUV. There’s also a particularly sporty-looking three-spoke steering wheel with AMG-style dials to change certain modes and functions on the fly.
Adding to the high-tech atmosphere, the ambient lighting setup has been given special attention, while the central infotainment screen is mounted on a tilting panel that angles toward the driver. A slim digital gauge cluster sits just behind the wheel, and the bucket-style sport seats come with active side bolsters that inflate to keep the driver firmly in place during tight corners, a feature found in some high-end German performance models.
Performance Specs and Range Options
The P7 will be available with two battery options: a 74.9 kWh pack and a larger 92.92 kWh version. The standard configuration uses a single rear-mounted electric motor delivering 362 hp (270 kW). For those wanting more grip and performance, an all-wheel-drive setup adds a 224 hp (167 kW) front motor, bringing total output to 586 hp (437 kW).
Xpeng is targeting competitive range figures across the lineup. The base model promises up to 436 miles (702 km) on a single charge. Opting for the long-range rear-wheel-drive version increases that to 509 miles (820 km), while the dual-motor AWD variant lands at a still-impressive 466 miles (750 km).
Although specific charging times haven’t been confirmed, Xpeng says the P7 will support the same 5C fast-charging standard as the G7 SUV. That means just 10 minutes of charging could provide up to 271 miles (436 km) of added range, assuming similar conditions and infrastructure.
As for dimensions, the sedan measures 197.5 inches (5,017 mm) long, 77.6 inches (1,970 mm) wide, and 56.2 inches (1,427 mm) tall, with a 118.4-inch (3,008 mm) wheelbase, meaning it has a similar footprint to the Tesla Model S.

Pricing hasn’t been revealed yet, but based on current trends among Chinese EV makers, it’s safe to assume that the P7 will be priced aggressively, likely enough to make Western buyers take a second look at what they’re getting for the money, even as the approach sparks growing concerns within China about how sustainable it really is.
