The XPENG G9L is set to become one of XPENG’s most important flagship electric SUVs, combining luxury-level space, advanced AI technology, powerful electric performance, and global safety standards.
Officially announced on August 4, the new XPENG G9L is positioned as a “Global Large Five-Seat Technology Flagship SUV.” Although final pricing and launch details have not yet been released, XPENG describes the model as a 30万元-class smart technology benchmark SUV.
Unlike many traditional large SUVs that add a third row, the XPENG G9L focuses on creating an ultra-comfortable five-seat executive cabin, offering more space for rear passengers and luggage.
Available with both pure electric (BEV) and extended-range electric (EREV) powertrains, the G9L is designed to compete with premium intelligent SUVs in China and global markets.
XPENG G9L Dimensions: A True Large Five-Seat SUV
The XPENG G9L is not simply a longer version of the existing XPENG G9. It has been redesigned as a larger flagship SUV with a stronger focus on passenger comfort.
XPENG G9L Size Specifications:
- Length: 5,120 mm
- Width: 1,999 mm
- Height: 1,782–1,795 mm
- Wheelbase: 3,100 mm
- Seating Layout: 5 seats
Compared with the current G9, the G9L provides a larger body and longer wheelbase, creating more interior space without adding a third-row seat.

- Business users
- Families seeking premium comfort
- Long-distance travelers
- Drivers who prioritize rear-seat space
Spacious Five-Seat Interior With Executive-Level Comfort

The SUV provides an impressive:
1,152L Rear Cargo Capacity
This makes the G9L practical for:

The combination of large wheels, intelligent lighting, and a strong SUV profile gives the G9L a distinctive flagship appearance.
