The Malaysian facelift range starts from RM281,073, with single-motor 2WD and dual-motor AWD versions, and up to 615 km of WLTP range.

X9 in 2026 — what's new

For 2026, the X9 is the facelift model launched in Malaysia with three seven-seat variants: 2WD Standard Range, 2WD Long Range and AWD Performance. The current range covers up to 615 km WLTP, while the facelift has also been tied to up to 542 kW DC charging. Xpeng’s Malaysia plan keeps X9 CKD on schedule, with local R&D, more 3S outlets and megawatt hypercharging in the pipeline.

Which variant to buy

The 2WD Long Range at RM299,073 is the sensible pick. The RM18,000 gap over the 2WD Standard Range at RM281,073 buys 110 kWh instead of 94.8 kWh and 615 km instead of 535 km, with the same 315 hp. The AWD Performance at RM335,573 is for buyers who want 496 hp and all-wheel drive; it gives up some range at 580 km.

Verdict

The X9 sits in the upper half of electric MPV pricing rather than the budget end: BYD M6 starts at RM109,800 and Maxus MIFA 9 at RM269,888, while Denza D9 and Zeekr 009 start just under RM300k. Its case rests on seven seats, long WLTP range and the option of AWD Performance. Against the Denza D9’s stronger Malaysian sales record, the X9 is the less proven pick.
