en.Wedoany.com Reported - Last week, Chinese electric vehicle maker XPeng Group officially entered the Mexican market, with the updated G6 and G9 models as its initial offerings. The G6 starts at 819,900 Mexican Pesos (approximately $45,000), slightly higher than the Tesla Model Y's 799,000 Pesos. The G6 offers faster charging and superior standard features compared to the Model Y, while the G9, priced at 1,099,900 Pesos (approximately $61,000), is a more spacious and comfortable model.
XPeng Group is not only launching vehicles in Mexico but also investing in infrastructure. Dr. Brian Gu, Vice Chairman and President, stated: "Today marks an exciting milestone for XPeng as we officially enter Mexico. This is a crucial step in our global journey and the starting point of our three-year plan to lead AI mobility in Latin American countries. We have established an early 1,000-square-meter parts warehouse to ensure nationwide after-sales support." This move reflects XPeng Group's long-term commitment to the Mexican market.
The models launched in Mexico are equipped with NVIDIA Orin-X chips, supporting the X-Pilot ADAS system which provides features like highway cruise. XPeng Group is introducing its self-developed Turing AI chip for the more advanced XNGP system. Chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng emphasized: "We are committed to leading AI mobility in Latin America within three years, from entering core markets in 2026 to establishing a leadership position by 2028." This reflects the background of XPeng's rebranding from "XPeng Motors" to "XPeng Group," expanding its business into areas like flying cars and AI chips.
XPeng Group may soon announce its launch in Canada, leveraging favorable trade policies. Its partnership with Austria's Magna could support production expansion, and future localized assembly in Latin America is also possible. In Mexico, the market share of Chinese brands is growing, and XPeng Group is enhancing its competitiveness by building a comprehensive sales network. This will help drive the development of a smarter electric vehicle market in the North American region.
