The new G6 has 81 updates. The most important of these is the application of a new battery called "Bullet," which can charge 10% to 80% in just 12 minutes.
The price of the new Xpeng G6 model, which is sized and priced to compete with the best-selling Tesla Model Y, is divided into three trims. The basic type is 176,800 yuan, starting at 35.5 million won when converted into Korean money. In summary, despite improved mileage, ADAS base, and improved charging speed, the starting price of the 2025 model was set 11% lower than before.
Although the price was lowered, the Turing AI intelligent driving system developed by Xpeng was basically applied. It is a high-performance ADAS system powered by a 40-core "Turing Chip " processor that enables the performance of three existing high-performance chips to be implemented in a single chip. It has 12 times faster camera image processing speed than major competitors, enabling full-fledged L4 autonomous driving in the future.
Another feature of the new G6 is the application of a "bulletproof"5C AI battery. 5C means 5 cycles. Basically, it means that the battery can charge from 10% to 80% five times per hour.
It takes 60 minutes per hour, 12 minutes, or 1/5 hours to charge from 10% to 80%, so it's called 5 cycles or 5C. For example, a 6C battery takes 10 minutes and a 4C battery takes 15 minutes.
Xiaopeng added the name "Bullet" to the new battery because it has a strong cover to withstand both heat above 1000 degrees, collisions weighing up to 80 tons in a side collision scenario, and a strong impact on the lower part.
The price of the G6 625 model, which is the upper trim, is 186,800 yuan, which is 37.5 million won when converted into Korean money. It has been certified as a driving distance of 625 kilometers based on China's CLTC. It is equivalent to 442 km of the European EPA standard. The 725 model has an additional 100 kilometers of mileage. In both models, AI batteries are improved from 3C to 5C charging speed, and Turing AI autonomous driving system is provided as standard equipment.
The interior is equipped with a 9-inch digital center mirror, an interior material upgrade, and a new sheet from Xpeng that supports massage functions. Xpeng announced that it took just seven minutes for the newly launched 2025 G6 to hit 5,000 contracts on its first day of launch.
