XPeng unveils GX flagship SUV with 750 km range, L4-ready hardware for $58,000

XPeng officially unveiled the GX, its new flagship SUV, at the Beijing Auto Show today. The full-size six-seater starts at 399,800 yuan (~$58,000) and packs up to 750 km (466 miles) of AWD range in its pure electric version.

The GX represents XPeng’s most ambitious push into the premium market yet, bringing together the company’s most advanced autonomous driving hardware, a Bosch steer-by-wire system, and aviation-grade safety redundancy — all in a package that directly undercuts European luxury SUVs.

Range Rover looks, but the interior steals the show

I saw the XPeng GX in person at the Beijing Auto Show, and it is a stunning vehicle. The exterior is obviously reminiscent of the Range Rover — something we noted when XPeng first revealed images of the GX earlier this year — but dare I say, the interior is even more impressive.

The GX measures 5,265 mm (207 inches) long on a 3,115 mm (123 inches) wheelbase, making it slightly longer than a Range Rover. It rides on 22-inch wheels and achieves a 0.255 drag coefficient — more aerodynamic than a current Prius.
