Xpeng G6 RWD Standard Range vs RWD Long Range
Verdict
The Xpeng G6 RWD Long Range asks RM19,760 more than the Xpeng G6 RWD Standard Range, and the clearest return is hardware: 292 hp instead of 248 hp, an 80.8 kWh battery instead of 68.5 kWh, and a slightly quicker 6.7-second 0-100 km/h time against 6.9 seconds. But the quoted EV range is identical at 525 km, top speed is the same 202 km/h, and both get the same 571-litre boot. For most Malaysian buyers, the Standard Range is the sharper buy.
Pick the Xpeng G6 RWD Standard Range if you want the same quoted 525 km range, same SUV practicality and lower running costs for less money.
Pick the Xpeng G6 RWD Long Range if you specifically want the stronger 292 hp motor and larger 80.8 kWh battery.
