XPeng G6 might be priced lower than Tesla Model Y in Malaysia


XPeng will be making its debut in Malaysia soon with the XPeng G6. While we still waiting for the company or its local partner Bermaz to announce the launch date and other vital information, details about the electric SUV have begun to make their way online.

XPeng G6 Malaysia estimated pricing vs Tesla Model Y

Among the latest unofficial information about XPeng G6’s upcoming release in Malaysia is its estimated pricing. According to a screenshot that was shared by Xen Xen, one of the moderators for the Malaysian Electric Vehicle Owners Club (MyEVOC) Facebook group, this is the estimated starting price of the electric SUV in our market:

  • XPeng G6 435 Standard: RM175k
  • XPeng G6 570 Long Range: RM195k

The screenshot which depicted a conversation with a sales executive from XPeng Glenmarie also said that the electric SUV will be launched in Malaysia at the end of this month. If the estimated pricing above is accurate, then XPeng G6 is going to undercut one of its main rivals, the Tesla Model Y.

  • Tesla Model Y Performance AWD: RM280k

As noted earlier, there will be two variants of G6 coming to Malaysia although both of them have a rear-wheel drive (RWD) setup.

However, the G6 435 Standard comes with a 190kW (255hp) electric motor while the G6 570 Long Range features a 210kW (282hp) motor. Both variants offer a peak torque of 440Nm despite the differences in their power output.

They also can reach a top speed of 200km/h although when it comes to 0-100km/h timing, the Long Range variant is quicker at 6.7 seconds. That being said, the difference was not that much though since the Standard model can go from 0 to 100km/h in 6.7 seconds.

When it comes to range, the figures were written right on their names although it is unclear at the moment whether XPeng and Bermaz are going to officially use these monikers in Malaysia. Powered by a 66kWh LFP battery, the G6 435 Standard can deliver a WLTP-rated range of up to 435km while the G6 570 Long Range which was fitted with an 87.5kWh battery can go even further at up to 570km.
