Xpower Chinese competitors

And probably will be for a long time. ??
Even the X power clone from Byd is coming in at a higher cost 310kw awd ..

Be interesting to see the next gen X power that hits the roads is like

X power styling is pretty good now but a few slight design changes inside and out and decent refinement to the chassis and handling at a similar cost to now and it will be a winner!!

That said there is going to be a flood of Chinese EVs coming in to AUS over the next year or so ( we seem to be the dumping ground for Chinese EVs )
There may be a few gems in them that challenge the XPower for price and performance..

While MG is not super amazing quality a lot can be said about some of the rubbish EVs the China has produced that AUS may end up with!

My wish list I suppose for next gen X power is sub 65k aud

500km 600km range no more than 400kW AWD (so cyberster power ) the car really doesn’t need much more power than that !!

More so to just counter balance the bigger battery to give it a sub 4 second 0-100

19” or 20” rims with some 255-265 boots..

Maybe twin piston brake callipers ( no fake covers )

Simple and minimalist interior with some better racing / bucket seats ..

Better phone charger holder !!!?

I want it to handle and sit on the road like a 2024 golf R so it needs better refinement in the chassis / suspension / balance department ..

Some more Matt colours

If they can do that in sub 65k price tag then shut up and take my money!!

If you watch a few Electric Viking Youtube videos (he's Australian too !) he has driven a lot of the new Chinese cars - ZeekR, Xpeng etc. and he will keep you updated on whats coming to Australia ?.

Yeah I know zeekr it’s part of Volvo and the first zeekr coming to AUS is just a Volvo ex30 with a different body as the chassis is part of the geely brand who also owns Volvo ..

Zeekr is kinda a poorer mans ex30 still coming in at 60-70k aus ..

Xpeng is coming to soon that may be a cheaper car but I’m not sold on quality

Electric Viking disagrees with you !! ... many reckon it is substantially more premium and also bigger.

I think Volvo and ZeekR are both owned by Geely ?

The Viking can disagree with me but fact is the zeekr x is built on the same chassis as the Volvo ex30 ( it has a specific something something chassis name geely uses for all its EV cars under its banner ) and comes in at a cheaper price so in essence it really is a poorer man’s Volvo.

The X has to be missing things the Volvo has if it’s coming in cheaper maybe even the fact that you pay the 10k more for the fancy Volvo logo..

But yes both Volvo and zeekr are under the geely motor group .

I’m not saying the zeekr is a bad car by any means but it just has to be missing refinements that the Volvo has otherwise why sell the same car with a different badge at 10k less??

Even the Volvo dealership near me will be selling zeekr x out of its Volvo show room is that smart to eat up your your own market ?

Here’s is a fancy ex30 for 77k or you can by the exact same car that looks a little different for 67k doesn’t make much sense if the cars an identical except for the looks!!
