Recently, the media learned from people familiar with the matter that Xpeng Motors G3 may face a suspension of production and sales. Although this model is still available for reservation and purchase, this product The car line will no longer launch facelifted models, and stores in major business districts will no longer display the G3i. The model will gradually be discontinued, inventory will be cleared, and it will be replaced by new products.
People familiar with the matter said that the G3i product line has become outdated and is not in line with Xpeng Motors’ strategy of switching all series to the Fuyao 2.0 architecture. However, there is no news of a replacement model for the G3i. Sources said that with the increase in G6 sales, the necessity of the lower-priced G3i has decreased, which has increased inventory levels and lowered gross profit margins. Its contribution to sales is almost negligible. It is normal to abandon this product line. At the same time, he also believes that Xiaopeng P5 should also be abandoned.
A store salesperson said that the G3i’s platform is old and can no longer keep up with the intelligence level of Xpeng Motors. The store has removed the G3i booth for some time, mainly to make room for the G9.
Autohome App sales data shows that the sales volume of Xpeng G3i has remained at around 300 units for many months. In the past six months, the sales volume has not exceeded 2,000 units, which is not even as good as the sales volume of Xpeng P5 in one month. Judging from the current sales data, discontinuing production is also an inevitable choice.
