01
Charging speed
800V native, 300 kW peak, 10–80% in 15 minutes on Xpeng's own S4 chargers or IONITY 350 kW units.
This is the fastest-charging SUV under €80k on sale in Europe today.
02
Comfort and equipment
Standard air suspension + dual-chamber dampers, 5D sound system with seat vibration, executive rear-seat mode with 6-degree recline.
98 kWh pack, 570 km WLTP dual-motor, 460 kW combined output.
03
Weaknesses
Boot is generous but the low load-lip is unusual; ride is firm on 21" wheels.
Weight is 2.4 tonnes — tyre and consumables costs are higher than mid-size SUVs.

- 01Genuine BMW iX alternative at half the running cost.
- 02800V charging is a road-trip advantage.
