According to reports, the Xpeng G7 will officially debut and open for pre-orders on June 11, with an estimated pre-sale price of around 250,000 RMB (c. 34,800 USD), equipped with a best-in-class HUD display jointly developed with Huawei.

This new vehicle is positioned as a pure electric mid-size SUV, featuring a single-motor drive and equipped with Xpeng's self-developed Turing AI chip and is expected to hit the market and begin deliveries as early as Q3 of this year.

The Xpeng G7 continues Xpeng's latest design language, featuring split headlights paired with a continuous LED light strip, paired with a blackened air intake in the front bumper.

The side profile features hidden door handles and petal-shaped wheels, which effectively reduces wind resistance. The rear features a continuous taillight with a distinct trapezoidal design.

The G7 measures 4,892mm (length) x 1,925mm (width) x 1,655mm (height), with a wheelbase of 2,890mm and is positioned between XPeng’s G6 and G9.

The new SUV will be also be equipped with Xpeng's self-developed Turing AI chip, 11 cameras and 3 millimeter-wave radars to power its pure vision intelligent assisted driving solution.

In terms of power, the Xpeng G7 uses a single-motor drive with a total electric motor power of 218kW with a top speed of 202km/h and is equipped with a lithium iron phosphate battery pack.

XPeng partners with Huawei XHUD

On June 5, Xpeng unveiled the "Chasing Light Panorama" head-up display (HUD) system, jointly developed with Huawei, called the XHUD.

This is particularly a surprising joint effort given that both companies are widely recognized as the best-in-class ADAS systems in the Chinese EV market.

Xpeng's "Chasing Light Panorama" head-up display system will feature full-scenario Augmented Reality (AR) lane-level navigation capability, with a display size of 87 inches and a resolution of 1920 × 1080.

The HUD display can show relevant information such as vehicle range, assisted driving activation status, speed limits, lane lines, vehicle speed, and navigation.

It can also project a “light carpet” to show the navigation route directly onto the real road, providing drivers with functions such as complex intersection guidance, long solid-line lane changes, bus lane changes, traffic light start-stop indications, lane change waiting, lane change overtaking, narrow road assistance, "ghost pedestrian" warnings, and side/rear warnings.

The system boasts 100 milliseconds of low latency, 12,000 nits of brightness, and an 1800:1 contrast ratio. It also includes AR anti-shake, slope compensation, latency compensation, and distortion correction algorithms to minimize display distortion within 1%.
