G9

G9 is the first product rooted in the international market, not only bearing the mission of XPeng Motors’ brand and sales growth, but also demonstrating XPeng Motors’ determination to go global.G9 was designed following both C-NCAP and E-NCAP’s 5-star safety standards, meeting the most stringent EU WVTA whole vehicle type approval standards. In the forefront of technological regulations, it complies with the latest framework regulations that the EU will implement in 2022. G9 is also expected to become one of the first domestic models to meet the above regulatory system. In the field of whole vehicle environmental protection, it meets the high-standard EU 3R certification, with a reuse rate of over 85% and a recycling rate of over 95%, contributing to global sustainable development.

According to XPeng Motors, G9 adopts a brand-new platform, reaching XPeng’s flagship level in terms of intelligence, performance, and quality.

X-EEA 3.0

G9 uses the X-EEA 3.0, which has now moved to a centralized architecture!

X-EEA 3.0 adopts a high-fusion hardware architecture of central supercomputing + regional control, which can carry higher-performance chips, achieving centralized computing power to support higher-level autonomous driving and more powerful intelligent cabins and other intelligent functions. As a result, G9 also becomes the first mass-produced car equipped with the XPILOT 4.0 function.

At the same time, it uses a Gigabit Ethernet backbone communication architecture and supports multiple communication protocols, making the vehicle faster in terms of data transmission. This supports higher-level autonomous driving, intelligent cabins, OTA, and other intelligent functions based on large amounts of data transmission. Meanwhile, based on more standardized designs and more standardized testing, the reliability of communication has also been substantially improved.

Specifically, it can achieve:

• OTA at the whole vehicle level can be controlled within 30 minutes;

• More comprehensive self-diagnostic functions, focusing on the driver’s driving safety. Once the vehicle malfunctions, users can be guided to make repair appointments and preparations through a more intuitive way;

• Vehicle self-checks and software updates before leaving the factory, greatly improving production efficiency.

XPower 3.0

G9 uses the XPower 3.0, which is also China’s first mass-produced car based on the 800 V high-voltage SiC platform.

• Charged for 5 minutes, the driving range can reach over 200 km, and the peak charging current can reach over 600 A;

• Thanks to the high-voltage SiC technology, motor magnetic fields, and reducer optimization, the electric drive system has an efficiency of over 95%;

• China’s first mass-produced 480 kW high-voltage supercharging pile is laid:

①Adopting charging gun liquid cooling technology, the current capacity can reach above 670 A;

②The IP65 level sealing level and built-in safety monitoring chip work together to ensure safety;

③The charging gun adopts a lightweight ultra-fine cable design, with small plug-and-pull force and light lifting weight.
