XPeng G6 Arrives in the UK With Ultra-Fast Charging and a Complete 2026 Overhaul

XPeng continues expanding its European presence, and following its official UK entry in early 2025, the brand is introducing a fully refreshed G6 — a technologically advanced electric SUV engineered to meet the demanding realities of British roads and weather conditions. The 2026 XPeng G6 aims to attract drivers seeking cutting-edge features without sacrificing practicality, comfort, or all-weather confidence.

Reengineered Battery System With Segment-Leading 451 kW Fast Charging

At the core of the new G6 is XPeng’s latest-generation 80.8 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery. This chemistry avoids the use of costly and controversial metals such as cobalt, nickel, and manganese, achieving competitive performance while improving sustainability and long-term durability.

Paired with XPeng’s 800V High-Voltage SiC architecture, the G6 reaches a peak charging power of 451 kW, enabling what XPeng calls the fastest charging in its class: 10% to 80% in just 12 minutes.
To enhance winter efficiency — crucial for the UK climate — every trim now includes a high-efficiency heat pump and XPeng Heat Boost technology, minimizing energy loss in cold temperatures.

Performance Black Edition Makes Its UK Debut

For the first time, UK buyers will have access to the dual-motor AWD Performance Black Edition, delivering:

• 358 kW of total power

• 660 Nm of torque

• 0–100 km/h in 4.13 seconds

XPeng’s tuned chassis, advanced AWD system, and optimized suspension promise confident road grip and exceptional stability.
The Black Edition adds a distinctive appearance package with:

• 20-inch black sport alloy wheels

• Smoked black mirror and window trim

• Black brake calipers

• Grey suede-like interior upholstery

20,000+ Refinements for Better Comfort, Handling, and NVH

XPeng says the G6 benefits from over 20,000 incremental engineering improvements. These include chassis recalibration, suspension tuning, and significant NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) enhancements. The result is a noticeably smoother, quieter, and more premium drive — matching expectations in the UK’s competitive EV market.

Exterior Updates and Aerodynamic Improvements

The refreshed G6 features a redesigned exterior characterized by:

• A full-width 1,942 mm Starlight LED light bar

• Integrated LED turn signals

• Body-colored wheel arches replacing black cladding

• Cleaner rear diffuser

• Redesigned rear spoiler

• New Stellar Purple exterior color

Despite the styling upgrades, the SUV maintains an impressive 0.248 Cd aerodynamic drag coefficient.

Premium Interior With Upgraded Comfort and Practicality

Inside, XPeng introduces a more luxurious and functional cabin environment:

• New wood-grain dashboard trim

• Suede-effect ceiling

• Refined Dark Grey color scheme

• Heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats

• Rear seats with 12-level recline

Practical elements include redesigned speakers and dual 50W wireless smartphone charging pads.
The G6 is family-ready, offering:

• 571 liters of trunk space

• 1,374 liters with rear seats folded

• A large center armrest compartment that fits up to five water bottles

Smarter XOS Cockpit and Advanced Safety Architecture

XPeng’s updated XOS cockpit system now features smoother animations, faster app launches, and improved four-zone voice interaction through the upgraded “Hey XPeng” assistant.

Safety remains a major focus:

• Structural battery protection with ballistic-grade shielding

• XPILOT ASSIST with Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Centering, and Enhanced AutoParking Assist

The refreshed XPeng G6 will launch in the UK in February 2026 with the following pricing:

• €46,890 — RWD Standard Range

• €52,760 — Long Range

The 2026 XPeng G6 enters the UK with a complete redesign, ultra-fast 451 kW charging, an 80.8 kWh LFP battery, improved winter efficiency, and the debut of the AWD Performance Black Edition. With major interior upgrades, over 20,000 engineering refinements, smarter XOS software, and new safety systems, the G6 aims to stand out in the UK’s rapidly growing electric SUV segment.
