    Seeing the smile on your face when you're in and around the car means that you're very satisfied with it after 3000km+
    What seems to impress you is the fast charging and the no-cost extras.
    Thanks for the review!

    I've got a G6 (in Sweden) and have driven 1000 Km in 4 days. I agree the car is amazing except for one little thing. It can't drive in a straight line ! The xpeng name for lane control is LCC, and as you say it's mostly useful on highways and roads with clearly visible markings. The problem is that the steering wheel is twitching back and forth constantly. You either get aching arms if you try to wrestle against it, or you get a neck ache from your head bouncing left and right. Did you not experience that? I also have a VW ID3, and that car goes like on railway tracks on the same roads.

      The smaller rim is offset by a larger tyre sidewall to maintain the same overall size, the smaller rim and tyre combination is lighter and typically they are a bit narrower so have a smaller contact patch and are also more aerodynamic, all these factors improve the range.

    It’s a nice car. The interior vegan leather is very high end. Material Feels Like a Rolls Royce
    XPeng copied Tesla from day one
    They copied the LiDAR and then Tesla stopped using LiDAR and are using vision data as a more reliable Full self driving method but XPeng couldn’t copy Tesla on FSD
    So for a couple grand cheaper than a Tesla and more range but not good FSD then buy it
    but I think the Tesla is a better buy as it’s the original modern EV and does a lot of stuff very well. Downloadable servicing. Very safe. Full self driving and better resale

Are they trying to buy market share by selling at unsustainable low prices like most other OEMs? I know almost nothing about Xpeng.

    Owning a Tesla Y i drove 2 large BYD models. Suspension kinda „better“ - more comfortable, but on/over the edge having 500hp accelerating in a curve. I found 2 downsides: Userinterface difficult: too many buttons on the steering wheel and you dont know when the lane assist is on or not. And what drove me crazy: my european „dynamic“ driving style with fast accelleration and lane changes and quick, controlled stops alsways made the hazard warning lights flash. Not really an extreme emergancy braking action but just a dynamic little bit harder braking. May be correct for US drivers but not in EU.

WLTP of model Y standard advertising range is 455 km but actually is 435 km only. Why Tesla don't tell you directly it is 435 km WLTP? I don't like the way Tesla treating theitlr customers. I don't know why Tesla has to charge you 1500 aud for delivery fee from Shanghai to Australia. Why not include in the selling price? Give you the feeling of cheating.

      @GDM22 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Australia is pretty cheap for charging even on superchargers, would have been about 65c a kwh on DC fast charging, he would have averaged around 17.5kwh per 100km , so assuming he started with a fully charged car, would have been about $295 if he arrived home with about 100km of range left. This would be worse case, AC charging is about half that price and he may have accessed free charging overnight at places where he stayed, reducing the cost further.

      Same in uk, my old diesel used to be cheaper I got 53 mpg, however that’s only on road trips. 90% of most driving you would do on home charger which is about 1/10 the cost of public high speed. So actual fuel costs likely to be less than half the diesel cost provided you have a home charger & a good overnight electricity price.

      Tesla won't give you 800 voltage with the new juniper for sure. If you said even with FSD you need to pay at least 72K. 14k more than G6 enhanced autopilot. If you buy the model y standard + choosing colour + enhanced autopilot it will cost you 62k + 5k = 67k, it is about 10k different. So it is not 1k cheaper. And you also get about 2k free charger + installation fee.

The ideal price should be under $55,000 drive away for standard range($5000 should matter to people compared with model Y) then the extended range model should be $60,000 drive away, which makes you have no reason for model Y.

    The proposition that the G6 is good value is referenced by the price and features of the model Y which are not cadt in stone. Looking ahead to the inevitable price refuction, there is a cheaper Chinese G,6 with a spec of 18inch wheels and less soft touch interior surfaces, it us just US$25k (A$37k) In my view this version, with a healthy A$12k markup, for sale at, lets say, $49k would steal sales from Atto 3 and the Model Y.
