XPeng launched the GX in China on May 20, 2026, and the extended-range (EREV, badged REV) version starts at CNY 289,800, about $43,300 at CNY 6.70 per dollar. That is well below the CNY 399,800 (about $59,700) pre-sale price XPeng announced in April. The GX is the brand's first full-size flagship SUV: a 5.27-metre, six-seat 2+2+2 vehicle sold both as a pure-electric model and as a super range-extender model. The REV pairs a 63.3 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery and a 1.5-litre range-extender engine with dual-motor all-wheel drive rated at 370 kW (503 PS / 496 hp), for a claimed 430 km of CLTC electric range and 1,585 km combined. Prices climb to CNY 359,800 (about $53,700) for the Ultra Flagship. Every trim has rear-wheel steering and XPeng's Turing AI chips, while front steer-by-wire is reserved for the Ultra Flagship. This report combines XPeng's official launch specifications with a dealer-floor walkaround of a GX Ultra by the Chinese Car Reviewer channel.
Performance & Specs
The GX REV drives all four wheels with two electric motors that together make 370 kW (503 PS, about 496 hp) and 695 Nm of torque. XPeng claims 0-100 km/h in 4.98 seconds and a 200 km/h top speed. Energy comes from a 63.3 kWh lithium iron phosphate pack, a liquid-cooled, IP68-rated unit supplied by CALB, which gives 430 km of electric-only range on China's CLTC cycle. The stricter WLTC rating is around 320 km, and UAE-market listings quote 310 km, so buyers outside China should expect less than the CLTC figure. A 1.5-litre turbocharged range extender charges the battery and stretches total range to 1,585 km CLTC from a 60-litre tank of 92-octane petrol, with XPeng listing 6.19 L/100 km once the battery is depleted. Curb weight starts at 2,840 kg. The pure-electric GX uses different, larger batteries: a 91.9 kWh LFP pack with a single 270 kW rear motor for 665 km, or a 110 kWh nickel-manganese-cobalt pack with 430 kW (577 hp) and all-wheel drive for 750 km.

Dimensions & Practicality
| Length | 5,265 mm |
|---|---|
| Width | 1,999 mm |
| Height | 1,800 mm |
| Wheelbase | 3,115 mm |
At 5,265 mm long on a 3,115 mm wheelbase, the GX is a proper full-size SUV, and the reviewer, who is more than 186 cm tall, reported enough head- and legroom in the second and third rows. Cargo space is 673 litres with all six seats in use, and XPeng quotes up to 1,748 litres with the third row folded; the third row folds electrically. The pure-electric versions add a 109-litre front trunk, which is not a feature of the REV. The showroom GX Ultra rode on the optional 22-inch wheels with Michelin tyres (XPeng's option sheet lists 265/40 R22 at the front and 285/40 R22 at the rear), and the body has a 0.255 drag coefficient. XPeng measures its CLTC range on the standard 21-inch wheels. Rear-wheel steering shrinks the turning radius to 5.4 metres.

Charging & Battery
The GX runs an 800V electrical architecture with 5C-class charging. XPeng's spec sheet gives a 10-80% charge in at least 11.7 minutes in laboratory conditions on an XPeng S5 charger, and up to 301 km of range added in 12 minutes on the REV's 63.3 kWh pack; it does not list a peak charging power in kilowatts for this pack. XPeng lists CLTC electricity consumption of 16.8 kWh/100 km. Once the battery is depleted, the engine runs the generator, and XPeng lists 6.19 L/100 km in that charge-sustaining mode. Buyers who would rather skip the engine can choose a pure-electric GX with a 91.9 kWh LFP battery (665 km) or a 110 kWh NMC battery (750 km).

Design & Interior
The showroom GX Ultra wore a dark grey finish with a full-width rear light bar and a clean, minimalist tailgate carrying just a "GX" badge and a small "GX Ultra" trim marker. The roofline stays low and coupe-like for a vehicle this size despite the 1,800 mm height, helped by dark-tinted glass that wraps from the side windows through to the rear hatch. Inside, the second row is two individual seats rather than a bench, with heating, ventilation and massage, a built-in dual-zone fridge and a rear touchscreen for the second-row passengers. The right-hand seat is a zero-gravity lounge seat, standard from the Ultra SE and part of a CNY 12,000 pack on the Max, and the front passenger seat gets a zero-gravity mode from the Ultra SE up. The reviewer noted Nappa leather upholstery and said the third row is comfortable even for a passenger over 186 cm tall, which is unusual for a three-row EREV of this size. XPeng also lists an 88-inch augmented-reality head-up display.
Technology & Features
The GX uses XPeng's Turing AI chips, from one chip and 750 TOPS on the Max to three chips and 2,250 TOPS on the Ultra and Ultra Flagship. The showroom car's settings screen confirmed software build XOS 6.2.5.8902 with the "Ultra VLA 2.0" package. The front cabin has a 17.3-inch 3K central touchscreen and an 8.8-inch instrument display, and XPeng lists a 21.4-inch roof-mounted entertainment screen for the rear cabin, standard from the Ultra SE and part of the CNY 12,000 second-row pack on the Max. One limitation for international buyers: the reviewer said the interface was Chinese-only at the time of the July 2026 walkaround, with an English-language update expected in September 2026.
Safety & ADAS
XPeng's driver assistance on the GX is camera-led, with no LiDAR on any trim, and runs on the second-generation VLA model through the Turing chips, with a Lite version of that model on the Max. That is a real trade-off against LiDAR-equipped flagship rivals, which add a redundant sensing layer in poor weather and low light. The higher the trim, the more compute is available: the Max carries a single chip, while the Ultra and Ultra Flagship carry three. XPeng also pitches the GX platform as built for the L4 era, though the driver assistance sold today is a Level 2+ system that needs a supervising driver.
| ADAS LEVEL | L2+ (camera-led, no LiDAR) |
|---|---|
| ADAS FEATURES | VLA 2.0 driver assistance (Lite on the Max), brake-by-wire, rear-wheel steering, radar and ultrasonic sensors; front steer-by-wire on the Ultra Flagship only |
| ADAS COMPUTE | 1 to 3 Turing AI chips, 750-2,250 TOPS by trim |

Pricing & Availability
XPeng launched the GX in China on May 20, 2026. The REV lineup has four trims with official guide prices of CNY 289,800 (Max), CNY 309,800 (Ultra SE), CNY 329,800 (Ultra) and CNY 359,800 (Ultra Flagship), or about $43,300, $46,200, $49,200 and $53,700 at CNY 6.70 per dollar. Orders placed by June 30, 2026 also qualified for a limited-time benefit price CNY 10,000 lower, starting at CNY 279,800 (about $41,800) for the REV Max (that launch price offer ended on June 30, 2026); the roughly $40,600 headline price quoted in the embedded walkaround video is in line with that limited-time figure. The pure-electric GX is priced from CNY 279,800 to CNY 359,800 (about $41,800 to $53,700). Both powertrains had been announced in April at a single pre-sale price of CNY 399,800, so every launch trim came in below it.
Outside China, XPeng has named the Middle East as the first export region for the GX. UAE listings on Dubicars, Yallamotor and Zigwheels show the GX making its official debut there in September 2026 at AED 245,000 for the Ultra (about $66,700) and AED 299,000 for the Flagship (about $81,400), with the listings disagreeing on whether VAT is included, Ultra deliveries expected from September and the GCC-spec Flagship following in January 2027; UAE-spec cars are quoted at up to 310 km of electric range and 1,240 km combined. XPeng's Australia and New Zealand arm has said the GX will come to Australia but has given no date. The reviewer, whose team exports cars, quotes about $59,000 FOB for the top trim, a reseller figure rather than an XPeng price list. A European or North American launch had not been confirmed as of September 2026.
How It Compares
At its CNY 289,800 (about $43,300) starting price, the GX REV costs roughly $6,800 less than the Li Auto L8, the closest six-seat EREV in our catalog, while offering more power (496 hp against 449 hp) and more total range (1,585 km against 1,315 km). Against the AVATR 07 REV and WEY Lanshan, which sit at about $41,300 and $40,400, the GX asks roughly $2,000 to $2,900 more and is the only six-seater of the three. The WEY Lanshan has the edge on peak power (517 hp against 496 hp). Rival prices are approximate catalog values.
- Every launch trim (CNY 289,800-359,800, about $43,300-$53,700) came in below the CNY 399,800 pre-sale price, and the REV Max undercuts the Li Auto L8 by roughly $6,800
- 430 km of CLTC electric range from a 63.3 kWh pack, plus 1,585 km combined, is strong for a six-seat EREV
- A zero-gravity second-row seat (standard from the Ultra SE), a built-in fridge and a comfortable third row give it a business-class cabin
- Camera-led driver assistance with no LiDAR is a real trade-off against LiDAR-equipped flagship rivals in poor weather
- Chinese-only interface at the time of the walkaround, a curb weight from 2,840 kg, and UAE prices far above the China price
The XPeng GX REV is a six-seat flagship SUV that starts at about $43,300 in China and climbs to about $53,700, with 496 hp, 430 km of CLTC electric range and 1,585 km combined from a 63.3 kWh battery and a range extender. It is for buyers who want a full-size family EREV with a lounge-style second row and serious driver-assistance hardware without paying a flagship premium, and who can live with a camera-only system and an interface that was Chinese-only at the time of the July walkaround. Export buyers should note that UAE pricing runs far above the China price, and that official launch plans beyond the Middle East remain unconfirmed. In China, the GX REV looks like one of the stronger value plays in the segment.
