Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer Xpeng has introduced its latest model in the electric multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) segment with the launch of the X9 luxury minivan. The vehicle marks Xpeng’s second entry into the United Kingdom market following the debut of its G6 electric SUV in 2025.

Designed to compete with established models such as the Volkswagen ID.Buzz and Maxus Mifa 9, the X9 offers a seven-seat layout as standard. Notable features include electronically operated sliding rear doors and an interior described by Xpeng as a "lounge-concept," aimed at enhancing passenger comfort.

The base version of the X9 is equipped with a single electric motor that delivers 315 brake horsepower (bhp) and 420 Newton meters (Nm) of torque. The vehicle’s range is claimed to reach up to 332 miles on a single charge, under unspecified testing conditions.

Xpeng has opened orders for the X9 in the UK, with pricing starting at £74,990 for the standard single-motor configuration. A more powerful all-wheel-drive variant is also available, retailing at £84,990. The company positions the X9 as a premium offering in the electric MPV sector, aligning with growing demand for electric family vehicles in the European market.
