So which one in the video is your friend?🤭
Bjørn is a ninja…Waiting out the crowd and taking off his shoes so there will be no squeaky noices when he prepare to “attack” the car 😅
I've always been critical of Chinese cars, but I have to say now they've come along nicely. if they keep the price down, I'm sure they will be the market leader
G9 is an AMAZING CAR !
Good video, good car👍 just saw reviews on this G9 from Chinese KZreadrs, would say this car is going to be one of the most competitive players in its segment.
I really like the looks of this car, it really looks good! One of the best looking SUV out there.
The middle head-rest can be replaced with a projector like the P5. The mirror of the front passenger seat is also different from the driver's. It has adjustable warm lights for the wife to do her make up. Top trim comes with dual chamber air suspension and unlike other EVs where the driving modes are limited, the G9 allows you to fully customise things like the suspension, front/rear wheel drive, regen etc. to your own preference. Unfortunately, the most outstanding feature in my opinion, its in-house voice assistant, will not be available outside China. It will probably be using a third party provider, which is a far-cry from XPeng's own voice assistant. Some of its amazing features: 1) No need for wake-up command. Just give the command like you're talking to a person 2) Four people can issue commands simultaneously. 3) It knows who's issuing a command and who are just chatting even when both are happening simultaneously 4) It can handle up to 40 commands in one minute. They had to add a 500ms delay as it responds too quickly otherwise. 5) You can issue 4 actions in one command

It must take some masterful coding work behind that voice assistant. It would be a shame not to have it in other languages. It doesn’t make sense for XPeng to work on other versions until the company is fully established in Europe. IMO, it would be a better move to license the code to another European company now. Greater revenue potential and faster to market.

Why don't they make it available outside of China? That really seems nice. I really hopy Xpeng is gonna make an effort softwarewise in Europe. It kinda sucks if we get a gimped version here (which we already kinda do, no LIDAR, xpilot 2.5). I get that Europe needs extra testing, but I hope Xpeng makes the effort and updates it on these cars. I pre-ordered one, it just seems like such great value compared to other available cars in this class (cheapest that gets close is an Audi Q8, and it's 40.000 euros more expensive).

@@Jajalaatmaar I believe the voice assistant is carefully curated for the Chinese language. But I think they are gradually rolling out some of the features to the international version as well e.g. ability for 4 person's to issue their own commands. yeah, its a wonder to me why they chose not to include lidar in the European versions. I can only think that it's for strategic reasons. But recently they've just appointed a star marketer to take charge of marketing and overseas expansion. Maybe she'll put her vast experience to good use and position XPeng more appropriately moving forward, which is where they are seriously lacking. XPeng is like a talented engineer who doesn't know how to make a good impression.

@@networm78 Yep. The G9 only starts delivery in the Netherlands in Q4 and specs are subject to change. Maybe they'll still add it in later if we whine enough? I'll definitely ask about it when test drives become available (which should be in Q2). Even if they only deliver on current specs with the current price it's still a very attractive car. I realize their marketing isn't great but that also pushes them to offer a low price. If they start in Europe right off the bat with superior assisted driving that would be great. Especially now that Tesla is reducing sensors and their autopilot doesn't seem to improve that much. Show the Tesla nerds that Xpeng can do it better and you create buzz.
Nice looking family car.
Personally I wish they would try to avoid frameless windows. Barely any automaker gets the alignment of the windows perfectly right so it creates additional noise. It is really unnecessary on a big SUV.
The lexus RX 450h has a simillarily hidden rear wiper, so it does not interfere with aerodynamics. also it looks really clean and nice.

Good video! You mentioned the trailer hitch. I have a new test for you! Set up an open trailer with 250 kg of cargo (standard shape and weight). Include this as a new range test for cars that have a trailer hitch. It would be interesting to see the reduction of range at 90 km/h and 120 km/h. 👍🇨🇦

Good looking car!
Now if the stock pice would please stop crashing that would be nice!
I spotted this on test in camo in Dublin Ireland. Unusual to a test car in Ireland especially as these are not sold here.
Nice car!
It's called 'under thigh support'. btw bought an Ioniq 5, thanks Bjorn for your advice
I love it!
Thanks for your review, Bjorn! Does this G9 have the option to install and use Spotify, KZread, Google Maps on its infotainment system? Thanks!
2023 car and no adaptive headlamps.. air suspension but no flat boot floor. frameless rear door instead of shadesm USB A ports, single wireless charging port while shape of tray make it difficult to charge with cable, temp .. They just got all priorities wrong. And like you said until you can test software you can tell anything. as I don't care about padded grabhandle if I cannot precondition my car in winter.
Hi Bjorn, will you be visiting the Oslo motor show? Can you please stop off at the Fisker Ocean stand? 🙏🏽
This is a truly beautiful car.
i like lets hope to test it proper on the 1000km challenge.
They hide the wiper in the top on range rovers too
Hum... When do you try the MG 4 or the new ZS...
It looks good, and it seems that it’s good made. Looks like they made the lag of the software (screen) but again, (Tesla Bjørn ) hasen’t tested it yet. Also hope that they made the head lights better.. And last thing hope that it comes with a good price, or people Will that what they know
Nice first impression video!
Goodbye tesla, no panel gaps, like the tesla, way better interior, it is 100 times better, oh yes a little slower 0 to 100 but faster charge, way better equipped
Got the Volvo EX90(?) add before the video and tbh first time I not skipped an add. This car looks also very good and I think is a rival to this xpeng
Almost every Range/Land rover has the wiper there 😊
Do you already know when you’re going to test drive the car (and try out the charging speed and software user friendliness)?
If they let google do the software for the western market that would be dope
If you get the Audi e-tron with contour seats the electric leg support extension works excatly the same. No crumb area
