XPeng's updated sedan leans into fast charging and software-defined ride behavior.
XPeng's P7+ update is a useful sign of where China's premium EV middle is heading: 800V charging, software-defined handling, and AI features that have to feel practical rather than decorative.1
The AI chassis framing is the key. It turns ride control into a software story, which is exactly where Chinese EV brands want the comparison to happen.
The risk is message overload. Buyers need the technology to show up as comfort, confidence, and less friction.
