Xpeng Motors said on Monday it has deployed its first “ultra-fast” charging station equipped with a new self-developed 800-volt DC fast-charging point S4, which the company claims can charge its G9 crossovers with enough power to travel 200 kilometers (124 miles) in five minutes. Chief executive He Xiaopeng also revealed plans to develop a network of the new charging points across major cities in China by 2023. Rival Li Auto’s first battery EV model, scheduled for release next year, will be able to recharge up to 400 kilometers of range in 10 minutes, CEO Li Xiang told investors during an earnings call on Monday.
