The Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer announced that the P7+ received a staggering 31,528 orders within just three hours of being made available for purchase, setting a new record for the company.
The P7+ was unveiled at a launch event on November 7 and quickly caught the attention of consumers. By midnight Beijing time on the same day, Xpeng had already received over 31,000 firm orders for the sedan. This overwhelming response demonstrates the strong demand for electric vehicles in the market and highlights Xpeng’s growing popularity among consumers.
The sedan comes in two regular variants with starting prices of RMB 186,800 and RMB 198,800, respectively.
