- The new P7 will be offered with LFP and NMC battery packs in China.
- Buyers will get to choose between 20- and 21-inch alloy wheels.
- High-performance models get orange Brembo brake calipers.
New details have emerged about the next-generation Xpeng P7 sedan, and contrary to earlier reports, it’s more powerful than its predecessor. With a fresh design that channels Lamborghini vibes, the 2025 P7 is not just a visual upgrade; it also promises improved performance. Unfortunately, it’s a China-exclusive, meaning the US won’t get to experience it firsthand.
The Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has revealed that several powertrains will be offered for the new P7. Hidden beneath the sultry bodywork of the standard model will be a rear-mounted electric motor that produces 363 hp. It’ll receive its juice from an EVE Energy-sourced lithium iron phosphate battery, although its capacity remains unknown.

For those who want more range, there’s a single-motor, long-range version. It also packs 363 hp but is equipped with a larger NMC battery from CALB.
Chinese customers looking for the ultimate in performance can opt for the new dual-motor model. It retains the 363 hp rear motor, but adds a 223 hp unit to the front axle, resulting in a combined output of 586 hp. It also gets an NMC battery from CALB and comes standard with beefed-up brakes that include orange Brembo calipers.
New data also reveals Xpeng will sell the new model with 20- and 21-inch wheels with 245 mm front and 275 mm rear Michelin Pilot Sport EV tires. Three different wheel designs have also been previewed, all of which are quite striking. We can also see that the P7 will be available with several forged carbon fiber elements, including the wing mirrors and small panels behind the front wheels.
The new P7 measures 5017 mm (197.5 inches) in length, 1970 mm (77.5 inches) in width, and stands 1427 mm (56.2 inches) tall. The wheelbase stretches to 3008 mm (118.4 inches), which should translate to plenty of interior space. Its curb weight comes in at 2090 kg (4600 lbs).
Xpeng is expected to unveil the new P7 at the Guangzhou Auto Show in the third quarter of the year. Unfortunately, unless you’re in China, don’t expect to see it in your market anytime soon.
