READ MORE: https://www.electrifying.com/reviews/xpeng/p7/review Join Nicola as she heads to Brussels for a first look at the all-new XPeng P7+ — the sleek new Chinese EV with a name that sounds like a remote-control battery… but a spec sheet that could seriously worry the established players. Because the big question is: is this £45k EV good enough to embarrass Audi? In this video, Nicola takes you on a full walkaround of the XPeng P7+ and explains why this car could be a major disruptor in the UK. From its ultra-clean design and enormous practicality, to the surprisingly premium cabin tech, the P7+ is aiming straight at cars like the VW ID.7 and even the Audi A6 — for a whole lot less money. And it’s not just about price. The XPeng P7+ brings 800V fast charging, a claimed 10–80% charge in just 12 minutes, and a choice of LFP battery packs (which are cheaper, tougher, and happy being charged to 100%). Plus, there’s a long range version targeting up to 329 miles WLTP, and a performance model with 496hp and 0–62mph in 4.3 seconds. Inside, you’ll find a minimalist-but-not-bare interior, a huge central screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, clever everyday storage, and some genuinely unexpected luxury touches — including rear seat massage. Yes, really. So is XPeng the next big EV brand to watch… or will British buyers still cling to badges over value?
