Xpeng currently sells four EV models — the flagship P7 sedan, the cheaper P5 sedan, the G3 SUV, and the larger G9 SUV, which will start shipping in October. Two new items will be added to this list next year.
Xpeng has yet to reveal the names or other details of these electric vehicles. However, some information was shared by the president of the company, Brian Gu.
Gu said the B-class car will be released in the first half of next year and "will actually be aimed at an even wider market segment" than the P7 sedan. He said the car could be considered a "strong competitor" to the Tesla Model Y.
The C-Class model will be released in the second half of 2023. This car will be aimed at a new segment for the young brand.
Gu also said that the new models will not be sedans and their prices will be different from Xpeng's already introduced electric vehicles.
From January to July 2022, sales of XPeng vehicles in China reached 80,507 units, up 108% over the same period in 2021. The company calls itself the number 1 new car brand in China.
