Next-Gen P7: Xpeng’s Comeback for Its Most Iconic Sedan
The original P7, launched in 2020, was a breakthrough for Xpeng in the electric sedan segment. Its sleek design and balanced performance quickly made it a consumer favorite, contributing significantly to Xpeng’s annual sales in 2021 and 2022.
Xpeng later introduced the P7i in 2023 as a technological refresh and followed up with the P7+ in 2024, a more family-focused sedan. However, the newly launched P7 is positioned as the true successor to the original, aimed at tech-savvy and performance-driven customers.
Three In-House Turing Chips Delivering 2,250 TOPS
A major highlight of the new P7 is the integration of three in-house developed Turing AI chips, the same chips used in the company’s flagship G7 SUV (Ultra variant). Two chips handle autonomous driving, while the third focuses on smart cabin services. Together, they offer a remarkable 2,250 trillion operations per second (TOPS), currently the highest computing power in any Xpeng vehicle.
These chips enable advanced AI features such as Vision-Language-Action (VLA) and Vision-Language Models (VLM), allowing the vehicle to intelligently understand driving environments and make proactive decisions, such as choosing optimal driving routes.
800V Platform with Ultra-Fast Charging
Built on an 800-volt high-voltage architecture, the P7 supports 5C fast charging technology. This allows drivers to add up to 525 kilometers of range with just 10 minutes of charging. This makes the vehicle highly suitable for both urban and long-distance travel.
The model offers three range options based on different configurations:
-
702 km
-
750 km
-
820 km
Bold Performance and Luxury-Inspired Features
Performance remains a core selling point of the new P7. The dual-motor version offers a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 3.7 seconds. To complement its speed and agility, Xpeng has fitted the sedan with a dual-chamber air suspension system, offering the driving dynamics and low ground clearance of a luxury sports car.
Inside, the new P7 debuts a movable center console screen, a first for Xpeng, using some of the robotics technology found in its humanoid robot “Iron.” This offers a futuristic and personalized cabin experience for drivers and passengers.
Pre-Sale Frenzy and Record-Breaking Orders
Within just 6 minutes and 37 seconds of the pre-sale opening, the new P7 received more than 10,000 reservations, according to Xpeng’s official Weibo account. This response highlights strong consumer interest and validates the company’s strategy of revamping its iconic models with new technologies.
Customers can place a reservation with a deposit of RMB 99 and will receive a RMB 3,000 discount on final purchase.
Xpeng’s Expanding EV Lineup in 2025
The new P7 is one of several models launched by Xpeng this year. The company has updated its G6 and G9 SUVs, the X9 MPV, and introduced a completely new SUV, the G7. It is also seeing strong ongoing sales of the Mona M03 and P7+ sedans introduced in 2024.
In July 2025, Xpeng delivered a record 36,717 vehicles, marking its ninth consecutive month of exceeding 30,000 monthly units. From January to July 2025, total deliveries reached 233,906 units a 270.26 percent year-on-year increase. In the first half of 2025 alone, Xpeng surpassed its total deliveries for all of 2024.
The company aims to double its vehicle deliveries in 2025 compared to the previous year, a target that now looks well within reach.
