- This new model is slightly longer than the big G9 SUV but has a shorter wheelbase.

The Xpeng family is receiving a new member known as the G7 and this might just be the firm’s best-looking SUV. Previewed through a series of official photos and images from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the G7 slots between the G6 and the G9 in Xpeng’s SUV range, and it’s expected to go on sale during the first half of 2025.
Data reveals the G7 is 4,892 mm (192.5 inches) long, 1,925 mm (75.7 inches) wide, and stands 1,655 mm (65.1 inches) tall with a 2,890 mm (113.7 inches) wheelbase. That means it’s 1 mm longer than the more upright G9, but it does have a 108 mm (4.2-inch) shorter wheelbase and also sits much lower. As with other Xpeng models, the G7 looks quite attractive.

Found up front are the same slim LED DRLs and light bar found across the brand’s portfolio, including the new P7+. The main headlamps are positioned below these DRLs, and there’s no traditional grille in sight. Instead, most of the front fascia is body-colored, except for the lower portion, which is finished in gloss black and includes air vents that can open and close.
The side profile of the G7 shows it has a low roof and a streamlined design, looking not dissimilar in shape to the Kia EV6 with its mix of sedan and crossover influences. The rear end includes sharp LEDs, a light bar, a spoiler stretching off from the roof, and a black bumper.
Lower and higher-spec versions of the G7 are tipped to be offered with weights varying between 2,085 kg (4,596 lbs) and 2,160 kg (4,761 lbs). Powertrain details have not been confirmed, but both variants will use CALB lithium iron phosphate batteries.
CarNewsChina suggests that prices for the new Xpeng G7 could start at around 200,000 yuan (~$27,300), making it another compelling, low-priced EV from China.
