As a midsize electric sedan, the XPeng P7 is a direct competitor to the Tesla Model 3. As XPeng's second model after the G3, the range of the new sedan will be improved compared to the G3. According to the official release, the size of the XPeng P7 will be larger than most mid-size cars, with a wheelbase typical of mid-to-large size vehicles. In terms of battery life, the company said that "the range will be greatly improved"[10] with a range of 562 to 706 km (349 to 439 mi) (NEDC) claimed. The XPeng P7 made its world debut at the 2019 Auto Shanghai show.[11] Deliveries to customers started on 29 June 2020.[3][4][12]
The XPeng P7 is equipped with XPILOT 3.0, which is an autonomous driving assistance system that features XPeng Navigation Guided Pilot (XNGP). It is equipped with 31 autonomous driving sensors in total, including 5 millimeter wave radars, 14 high-definition cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors, giving the XPeng P7 omnidirectional perception to supervise the changes of the surrounding environment.[13] Data is processed on an Nvidia Drive AGX Xavier SoC to enable functions such as automated driving and valet parking.[14] The XPeng P7 is also equipped with an adaptive cruise control (ACC) system as standard.

XPeng P7i (E28a)
The XPeng P7i is the refreshed version of the XPeng P7 for 2023. The facelift features the second generation XNGP XPeng intelligent driving assist system also found in the G9, which adds two LiDAR sensors, and two Nvidia Orin X chips replace the Xavier chips found in the original P7, providing up to 508 TOPS of calculation ability compared to the previous system's 30 TOPS. This allows for the introduction of two self driving modes, the first of which is called 'City NGP' which is a fully self driving system that relies on high-definition mapping, and was initially only available in Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen at launch. The second system is called 'LCC' and works as a lane-centering cruise control which can obey traffic signals and cross intersections, but is not capable of making turns; it is usable in all parts of China. An update in the second half of 2023 allowed the 'City NGP' mode to function without high-definition maps, allowing for use anywhere in China.[18]
The powertrain received an update, with rear wheel drive models now producing 203 kW (272 hp; 276 PS) and 440 N⋅m (325 lb⋅ft) of torque, while Performance variants add a 145 kW (194 hp; 197 PS) front induction motor for all-wheel drive and now produce a combined total of 348 kW (467 hp; 473 PS) and 757 N⋅m (558 lb⋅ft) of torque with an improved 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) time of 3.9 seconds.[19] These output increases were achieved by increasing the cooling capacity by 89% while retaining the same motors, allowing for sustained travel at 190 kilometres per hour (118 mph) for up to 30 minutes without overheating, and 15% higher range in cold-weather conditions according to XPeng. CLTC range for rear-wheel drive models is 702 kilometres (436 mi) and 610 kilometres (379 mi) for Performance models.[18]
It is 8 mm (0.31 in) shorter than the P7 due to revised rear body panels and taillight changes, but all other dimensions remain the same. The interior features several materials upgrades, including Nappa leather seats and a redesigned steering wheel and lower dashboard; additionally, the chipset running the dashboard screens has been upgraded to the Snapdragon SA8155P. A heat pump now comes standard, along with an electric motorized door option and an external trunk release. There is now an available twenty-speaker Dynaudio sound system with Dolby Atmos software.[18]

The first images of the second generation P7 were released by XPeng on 14 May 2025 after XPeng designer Rafik Ferrag posted a teaser video of the model the day before. It debuted on 6 August 2025 where blind pre-orders opened, and pricing will be announced in late August.[25] It is intended for global markets, according to XPeng. While the P7+ sedan it is sold alongside prioritizes interior space for family use, the P7 is differentiated by its focus on technology and performance.[26][27][28][29]
Rear view
The second generation P7 has a fastback liftback sedan body style with a lifting rear tailgate and uses XPeng's debuting 'Xmart Face' design language. It features a new front and rear lighting signature, flush-mounted door handles, optional power closing doors, frameless side mirrors, and an active rear spoiler. It has teal autonomous driving indicator lights integrated into the rear bumper and side mirrors. With the smallest wheels equipped, XPeng says it achieves a drag coefficient of 0.201 Cd.[30][31]
XPeng says that the P7 has the longest L113 dimension (length from front axle to driver's foot) in its class at 628 mm (24.7 in), leading to sporty proportions. It is equipped with a dual-chamber air suspension system, and the front uses a double wishbone suspension while the rear uses a 5-link independent suspension. XPeng says the P7 has the lowest center of gravity in its class at 440 mm (17.3 in).[32]
The interior features several debuting technologies for XPeng. The 15.6-inch central infotainment screen is capable of 3-axis movement, allowing it to face towards either front passenger and give visual feedback such as nodding movements. The front door sills have a capacitive touch button in the form of a illuminated fingerprint motif, which can be customized to perform a variety of configurable functions such as opening the glovebox or tailgate, control seat functions such as heating or ventilation settings, or activate interior lighting, with more options promised to be made available via future OTA updates. The front seats have active side bolsters with 30 mm (1.2 in) of lateral movement and a 10-millisecond response time. The three-spoke steering wheel has an oblong shape and features two hub-mounted dials for controlling drive mode and autonomous driving features in addition to the multifunction controls on the spokes. It has a narrow 8.8-inch digital instrument cluster supplemented by an 87-inch AR-HUD codeveloped with Huawei that debuted earlier in the G7, which XPeng claims is largest in its class. The AR-HUD can display overlayed lane-level navigation guidance and driver assistance information, and can be used to play AR games and movies when not driving. The interior is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P SoC, which is supplemented by a dedicated XPeng Turing AI chip for interior AI functions.[32][33] The P7 is available with a 23-speaker sound system with 7.1.4 surround sound, and a 9-inch digital rearview mirror.
The second generation P7 features three of XPeng's self-developed Turing AI ADAS chip which debuting with the G7, which are capable of 750 TOPS each; two of the chips are used for ADAS functions, while one is dedicated to interior AI functions.[34] Its updated supervised autonomous driving system does not feature a LiDAR, like the P7+ introduced in late 2024; its sensor suite consists of three 4D mmWave radars, 12 cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors.[31][35]
