The new car is equipped with second-generation VLA technology, achieving an effective computing power of 2250 TOPS. The suggested retail price ranges from 186,800 to 198,800 RMB, making it the only mid-to-large-sized intelligent sedan in the 200,000 RMB price range to offer 800V ultra-fast charging, 2250 TOPS intelligent driving computing power, and a 1550km comprehensive range across all models.

On January 8, 2026, Xiaopeng Motors officially released the 2026 Xpeng G6, positioned as a "six-in-one all-around pure electric coupe SUV," ushering in a new era of intelligent electric vehicles. As a major annual refresh model, the 2026 G6 achieves a comprehensive leap forward in intelligent driving, charging efficiency, cabin experience, and pricing strategy, with a starting price reduced to 176,800 RMB.

This is not just a new name, but the core implementation of GEELY's "integrated intelligent driving" strategy, marking its official entry into a new stage centered on high modularity and full-domain AI-driven technology.

On January 7, 2026, the GEELY Galaxy's first mid-to-large extended-range MPV, the Galaxy V900, officially opened for global pre-orders.

Three purchase benefits are also offered: "deposit expansion," "purchase tax subsidy," and "luxury upgrade," comprehensively targeting both family travel and business reception scenarios. The new car can be seen as an extended-range version of the L380, positioned as a mid-to-large MPV, offering 6/7/8-seat configurations.

As a milestone product for the Wuling brand's entry into the outdoor travel market, the Xingguang 560 not only continues Wuling's pragmatic philosophy of "building what the people need," but also achieves a comprehensive breakthrough in design, configuration, and cost-effectiveness.

On January 7th, Xiaopeng Motors announced that it will officially launch the 2026 G6 and G9 models at 3:00 PM on January 8th, under the theme of "technological upgrade," initiating a computing power revolution in Chinese intelligent electric vehicles.
