XPENG has revealed the G9L large SUV at the Paris Motor Show, previewing a flagship three-row model set to join its Australian showroom line-up.

Australian and New Zealand pricing, specifications and launch timing will be confirmed in the coming months.

The G9L will sit alongside the G6, X9 and L03 in Australian showrooms, expanding a local range that already includes the X9 electric people mover.

The large SUV has been shown with both pure-electric and range-extender electric powertrains, plus six-seat and seven-seat cabin layouts.

XPENG says the G9L has undergone three years of testing across 26 countries and regions, covering more than 6.74 million kilometres.

Safety equipment includes nine airbags as standard, automatic emergency braking at speeds of up to 150km/h and stability support following a tyre blowout.

The G9L also features XPENG NGP, the brand's next-generation assisted-driving technology, using VLA 2.0 technology and a high-computing-power AI architecture.

NGP functions include city and highway assisted driving, navigation-based assisted driving, intelligent lane changes, route decisions, traffic light and road sign recognition, intersection assistance, roundabout assistance, narrow-road assistance and advanced parking support.

XPENG intends to roll out NGP for customers in Australia and New Zealand during 2027.

XPENG G9L key specs

The REEV version uses a 63kWh LFP battery and offers 287km of WLTP electric range before the range extender is required.

Combined WLTP range is listed at up to 1200km.

The range extender is a dedicated 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine that generates electricity rather than mechanically driving the wheels.

REEV outputs are listed at 430kW and 695Nm, with a 0 to 100km/h time of 5.4 seconds.

A pure-electric version will also be offered with up to 430kW and 695Nm.

The pure EV version uses a 110kWh battery, has up to 553km of WLTP range and supports a peak DC charge speed of 540kW on a suitable charger.

XPENG also lists EV variants at up to 591km of WLTP range.

Underneath, the G9L uses double-wishbone front suspension, H-arm multi-link rear suspension, dual-chamber air suspension, Continuous Damping Control and rear-wheel steering.

XPENG says the rear-wheel steering is designed to make the large SUV easier to manage in tighter urban environments.

Cabin equipment detailed for the G9L includes Nappa leather seats, first-row AI Adaptive Seats, heating, ventilation, memory and massage functions, a zero-gravity passenger seat, second-row power adjustment, electric rear sunshades and a power-adjustable third row.

Other listed features include a 26-speaker premium audio system, an integrated vehicle refrigerator and multiple passenger entertainment features.

Australian details remain the next step for the G9L, with local pricing, final specifications and timing due to be announced in the coming months.
