The upcoming Xpeng X9 minivan is set to hit the Chinese market on October 24, with reports from CarNewsChina detailing the rollout. The X9 represents Xpeng’s seventh model, expanding the brand’s lineup in a growing market for smart electric vehicles. The minivan measures 5293 millimeters in length and has a wheelbase of 3160 millimeters, offering seating for six or seven passengers depending on the chosen configuration. The base variant features a single electric motor located on the front axle, delivering up to 320 horsepower. A more powerful dual-motor all‑wheel-drive version is rated at 503 horsepower, with both configurations electronically limited to a top speed of 200 kilometers per hour.
Xpeng has outlined an ambitious product roadmap that includes five additional models by 2025. In China, the lineup will reportedly include the G7 SUV, the F57 and F59 sedans, the F61 crossover, and the E29 coupe. Most of these models are expected to come with electric powertrains, with driving ranges ranging from approximately 500 to 800 kilometers depending on the specific model and configuration. The broader strategy appears to emphasize a mix of family-focused vehicles and premium electric options designed to appeal to a wide array of buyers seeking modern mobility with strong performance and efficiency.
Earlier industry notes indicated that GAC Trumpchi ES9 crossovers had begun sales in China, illustrating the competitive landscape in which Xpeng operates and highlighting the ongoing demand for new energy vehicles as more automakers introduce electric options and advanced technologies. This context suggests a continuing shift toward electrification and smarter, more connected driving experiences across the Chinese auto market, with implications for how future models like the X9 and its siblings are positioned and priced to attract mainstream customers.
