Chinese carmaker Xpeng is expanding its Australian retail network to 66 locations by end of 2026 and introducing new models.
Chinese carmaker Xpeng is expanding its Australian presence under factory control, planning 66 retail locations across every state and territory by the end of 2026. The mid-size L03 SUV will arrive in showrooms before year-end as the brand's third model in Australia, followed by the large G9L flagship SUV in early 2027 and the even larger GX SUV later that year. The L03 and G9L will be available with both electric and extended-range electric powertrains, though pricing and specifications for these models have not yet been announced.
Xpeng launched in Australia in late 2024 through independent distributor TrueEV with the G6 electric SUV, but that partnership ended acrimoniously with a Federal Court battle. Since taking over the operation, Xpeng Motors Australia (Xpeng ANZ) has introduced an updated G6 and the X9 people mover, both available exclusively with electric power. The company vowed in August to honour commitments made by TrueEV to customers, including $5000 cashback offers, 10-year promotional warranties and free servicing. Xpeng ANZ says it has processed more than 1400 customer enquiries and resolved 250 cases related to promotional offers from the previous distributor.
