    Full disclosure mate, are you getting kick backs from this?
    This is a brand new car to Australia, and manufacturer. One can't underestimate the risk with a new manufacturer, with parts and servicing etc etc. It takes time to build reliability in these areas, and becomes a particular problem if mass numbers are sold at the start of their journey. This is something you should definitely be talking about on your channel... When hyping up new makes and models. Love you bro

      Xpeng founders and investors all experienced in the car industry. They have great service network in China. And here in Hong Kong, Xpeng cars will be serviced by BMW. For sure can't be compared to the 50-100 years old manufacturers. But they are doing good. Tech is good, craftsmanship is good, price is good... Last few months I was studying and test driving all the electric cars in HK. Chinese cars feels much better in every way compared to European or Japanese ones. So, I ordered G6 and we will see. Hopefully won't be disappointed. Fingers crossed.

      Xpeng has the closest rival to Tesla’s software tech, better than Zeeker and the rest. Though be aware that it’s still not going to be FSD compliant so if you believe that the FSD is going to become unassisted within the next couple of years then you’re better off to stick with a model Y.
      I haven’t as yet tested the G6, tested a G9 last year. Felt just as good if not even better and more luxurious than my previous BMW X5. What I didn’t like was the single pedal function that wasn’t nearly as natural feeling as the Tesla. The same was true re single pedal driving with the Zeeker model X which was either too little or too heavy braking in its 2 settings. Never fiddled around with the G9 to see if it had different settings which possibly might have made a great difference. The Tesla model Y just took one traffic light and I felt comfortable to rely on its single pedal function.

    Seeing this on the road every day here in China, it looks a bit weird from the back. The current model Y looks old compared to this one however. You get free City and High Speed ADAS here, however there are some reports that high speed ADAS has to be well supervised and some crashes occurred especially on highway auto exiting. But the drivers were supervising their phones, not the car, which is not recommended. I'll try this one next week, I tried P7 a few years back and it was a rather good experience, good seats, comfortable ride. Xpeng cars seem to retain their used value as well as Tesla in China, whereas other EV brands basically depreciate really fast. But keep in mind that Xpeng does not have the market penetration of BYD or Tesla, so service might be less ideal until they build up.

      @kindface 2 месяца назад

      @@keithv3767 Good point. That said, I can't see where else in the world EVs can be produced more competitively than in China. Xpeng is one of a handful of Chinese EVs who've survived (considering the brutal competition, one may even argue "thrived") the frenzied feeding among almost 140 Chinese EV makers in the domestic market. Those who've cashed out on Xpeng and sustained a loss I'd hazard a guess were more traders (uninformed ones or non-pros) than investors or otherwise not playing with spare cash and certainly didn't inform themselves to the level of investment conviction that they should have. Xpeng have now got a captive client in the VW group as well so it could be argued that helps solidify a floor on their stock's valuation. Hovering around the profit breakeven point (which is where Xpeng is now) often feels like the darkest hour before dawn. BYD had a very long darkest hour but that was because BYD inadvertently became the defacto incubator of the EV market, shouldering the market's long gestation period almost single-handedly for the entire period until Elon joined the fray and shared the load - so they're (together with Buffet) gloating now as they deserve to be.

Fit, finish, internal design & materials, drive-ability, steering, suspension etc etc. In short, no money down on virtual web-site & I’d really want to be driving the car first. Then of course there’s also the matter of dealer and service centres, warranty details, availability of parts. A bit of a ways to go yet, maybe in 12 months time. Ditto the Zeekr for that matter.

    I drove the G6 recently in Norway, and it was an ok car. I own Tesla Y Performance now, but have owned the new Xpeng P7. However, I had a lot of problems with the pedals, especially gaspedal, which felt loose and made lots of noises..They were changed, but same problem again 2 months later, so I ended up getting money back cause they could not fix. G6 is nice, but for me theres something "off" in the design. I do think, not because I own Y now, but the Y felt much better in the handling, everything was just smoother. With Tesla you also get Sentry mode, which is a good reason in itself to own a Tesla. The sound is also alot better in the Tesla, and the new M3 Highlander is even better than my Y soundwise. But congrats, hope you will be happy with the G6. Me, I dont wanna buy Xpeng again. The new Y Juniper when it arrives will blow peoples mind I think, it will obliterate most of the so called " Tesla killers" by far and will probably better itself in all areas compared to the current Y

    I got near 600km 2 days ago that on a 90% charge, I had 20 somthing km left, I got the long range rear wheel drive one. surprised, when I bought it in winter it got around 530km full charge, when spring came it goes to 600 plus. real range if charge to 100% and drive to 1% can get 650km real range. I think its one of the longest range EVs available. and it gets 11-12kwh/100km on my G6, like it cause only charge once every 8-9days and cheap.

      ...not yet. Don't worry. When China increases prices for goods the US needs and cannot get anywhere else these import tarufs will go to 0%..because otherwise Chiba will increase the prices so much that it will be able to take a part of the money to reduce car prices to $5k...so they will cost $10k for you.
      The US government is fooling its cituzens by pretending there are no crucial goods abd resources it cannot get anywhere else but from China...and if China increases the price for those - let's say - 2/10 times or more...then it will be very easy to export BEVs at very very low prices.

    0:25 not sure where this pricing is coming from The Electric Viking is just making things up - everywhere else is saying the base G6 will be more expensive than the base Model Y and the Long Range will be closer to $A70k before on road costs not $60k - Xpeng themselves have said they are categorically not getting into a price war with Tesla in Australia.
    You can almost guarantee they are looking at the order book before deciding on the final price - I seriously doubt the $A60k mark for the long range is correct, I think they would have published that to try to steal some potential Tesla Model Y orders if that was the case. $67k-$69k before on road costs seems about right for Australia.

    I often compare Chinese cars to Tesla in the same way we compare Chinese Android phones to the iPhone. While Chinese cars and phones may come with many features, including the latest ones, they often become obsolete after a few years. In contrast, the iPhone tends to remain reliable and relevant for many years. I feel the same way about Tesla-its vehicles seem to maintain their value and performance over time.
