What is the weight of the Xpeng P7?
2 Answers
Xpeng P7 weighs 1.86 tons. The P7 is positioned as a mid-size pure electric sedan, with a body length of 4880mm and a wheelbase of 2998mm. Introduction to vehicle weight: It specifically refers to the curb weight (kg) of the car. The curb weight of a car refers to the empty weight of the car when it is fully equipped according to the factory technical conditions (such as spare tires, tools, etc.), with all fuels and water filled, and without passengers (including the driver) or cargo. Role of vehicle weight: The heavier the vehicle, the better the driving stability, especially during sharp turns and emergency braking. At the same time, it is also more solid during collisions, with less deformation, making it relatively safer.
I've been driving electric vehicles for many years. The Xpeng P7 has a curb weight of around 1,950 kg, which isn't exactly light but not outrageously heavy either. This is mainly because its battery pack accounts for a significant proportion - for instance, the 80kWh version's battery alone probably weighs over 300 kg, contributing 15% to 20% of the total weight. The design incorporates plenty of aluminum alloy materials for weight reduction, making the car feel less cumbersome to handle. When driving in the city, the vehicle's weight helps reduce bumpiness on rough roads, providing a more comfortable ride, though parking and turning can sometimes feel slightly slower. On highways, it feels exceptionally stable, not getting unsettled even in windy conditions, which gives a good sense of security. The weight also affects range efficiency - heavier weight naturally leads to higher energy consumption, but the P7's NEDC range exceeds 600 km, indicating decent optimization. For me, this weight strikes a reasonable balance between comfort and performance.
