Introducing the Future of AI-Defined Mobility
At the launch event, XPENG Chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng said: "In traditional cars, being premium has often been defined by design and features, but in the era of AI-defined vehicles, true premium quality is inseparable from intelligent technology." He added that XPENG's goal is to elevate the driving experience by making advanced AI-defined mobility technology standard in every vehicle. This commitment reflects XPENG's dedication to understanding and meeting the needs of today's drivers.
The P7+ embodies XPENG's vision for AI-defined mobility, merging "executive sedan" comfort with advanced AI capabilities to meet the evolving expectations of modern drivers. Following its debut at the Paris Motor Show, the P7+ became the first vehicle to incorporate large AI models into both smart driving and cockpit functions, underscoring XPENG's vision for AI-defined mobility. These innovations aim to revolutionize the driving experience, offering users a seamless and personalized journey.
Built-In Turing AI Driving System Comes Standard to Make Smart Driving Accessible
The P7+ is the world's first vehicle to feature built-in AI-powered advanced ADAS across the entire lineup, equipped with XPENG's in-house XOS 5.4 and the AI Hawkeye Visual Solution. The AI Hawkeye Visual Solution incorporates two 8M cameras, millimeter-wave radars, and ultrasonic radars, delivering clear, precise, and extended-range vision, enabling the P7+ to perform effectively in various lighting and weather conditions, from low light to high contrast environments. The XOS 5.4 platform enhances human-like interaction fourfold, with a 53% increase in lane-change success and a 155% improvement in detour handling.
Additionally, with model updates and monthly OTA improvements, the P7+ provides a constantly evolving driving experience without the need for additional subscription fees.
Advanced Smart Cockpit with X-GPT Model
The P7+ cockpit integrates XPENG's proprietary X-GPT model, with the Qualcomm 8295P cockpit chip for 50% enhanced performance. This system enables intelligent, natural voice interactions with in-depth comprehension, while a series of functions can be activated by one simple voice command. The interior features a 15.6-inch central control screen, a 10.25-inch digital instrument display, and an 8-inch rear entertainment screen with three-screen connectivity.
Industry-Leading Energy Management and Efficiency
The P7+ leads in energy efficiency, achieving 10 km per kWh. This breakthrough is enabled by four core innovations: optimized vehicle design and manufacturing, efficient power management, XPENG's X-HP 3.0 smart thermal management, and precise driving control. The P7+ has an industry-leading range efficiency of 116.89% in real-world testing. XPENG aims to further enhance range and energy efficiency through OTA updates, optimizing the electric driving experience for users.
Precision Engineering and All-Around Safety
The P7+ development team refined every detail to deliver a high-end driving experience. With a double-wishbone front suspension and five-link rear suspension, combined with in-house dynamics simulations, the P7+ reduces impact on speed bumps by 50%, vibration on rough roads by 24%, body sway by one-third, and pitch by half. Accelerating from 0-100 km/h in just 5.9 seconds, and with a braking distance of only 35 meters, the P7+ excels in both performance and comfort.
Safety is the cornerstone of XPENG's product development philosophy. The P7+ features aluminum front- and rear-integrated die-casting body structure, crafted by the world's largest 16,000-ton die-casting machine. Its 2000 MPa ultra-high-strength cage frame has a battery that withstands impacts up to 700J, far exceeding industry averages. With seven airbags and 14 active safety features standard, the P7+ delivers comprehensive safety protection for all occupants.
Unmatched Space and Premium Comfort as Standard
As an SUV-coupe hybrid, the P7+ boasts an exceptional blend of aesthetics and practicality, providing space that exceeds that of premium executive sedans. With a 5,056 mm body length and a 3,000 mm wheelbase, the P7+ utilizes the world's thinnest battery pack (just 109 mm) , allowing rear passengers ample headroom at 973 mm and enough room for both rows to stretch out.
With a trunk capacity of 725 liters, the P7+ can accommodate 33 carry-on suitcases when the rear seats are folded flat. This spaciousness opens up new possibilities for daily commutes, family trips, and leisure travel.
Inside, the P7+ offers a premium experience with an industry-leading 2.1㎡ panoramic sunroof, Nappa leather "cloud comfort" seats with heating, ventilation, and massage functions as standard across all variants within the product series, and a 10-degree rear-seat recline.
With deliveries beginning this month, the P7+ marks a significant milestone for XPENG as it strives to make intelligent mobility accessible to more people globally. As XPENG continues to lead in AI-defined mobility, the P7+ serves as a pivotal starting point for the brand's mission to deliver safer, smarter, and more comfortable mobility experiences. XPENG remains dedicated to advancing its AI Matrix and AI-defined mobility technology for a global audience, shaping the future of intelligent, sustainable mobility.
