Xpeng launched pre-sales for the MONA L03 SUV in China on July 2, priced at 143,800-165,800 yuan with pure-electric ranges of 525km and 625km and a range-extender version delivering 1,330km combined. The model features the Turing AI chip as standard. A global debut at Munich follows on July 16. Meanwhile, Xpeng's partnership with Shenzhou Rental deepens with cumulative orders exceeding 5,000 units and another 5,000 planned for the coming year.
Pre-sale Pricing and Core Specifications
The Xpeng MONA L03 SUV entered pre-sale on July 2 in China, targeting the mainstream family SUV segment at 143,800-165,800 yuan.
Range options cover two distinct use cases:
- Pure-electric variants: 525km and 625km CLTC range
- Range-extender variant: 1,330km combined range, virtually eliminating long-distance anxiety
The Turing AI chip, previously reserved for Xpeng's premium models, comes as standard equipment across the entire MONA L03 lineup. This marks a significant democratization of advanced intelligent driving capability.
Shenzhou Rental Bulk Purchase: The Business Logic
Xpeng's partnership with Shenzhou Rental has deepened over multiple years. Key figures from the latest cooperation:
| Dimension | Figure |
|---|---|
| Current batch delivery | 1,300 units |
| Cumulative purchase to date | 5,000+ units |
| Additional orders next 12 months | 5,000 units |
| Projected total fleet size | 10,000+ units |
Shenzhou Rental's rationale for choosing Xpeng includes:
- Lower operating costs through EV fleet economics versus ICE
- Smart features that attract younger rental customers
- Xpeng's after-sales network coverage across Shenzhou's operational cities
For overseas buyers, this B2B partnership signals that Xpeng's durability and service infrastructure have passed large-scale commercial validation. Buyers sourcing through EX1000.COM can cite Shenzhou Rental's fleet deployment as a quality endorsement.
Munich Global Debut on July 16: Europe Strategy in Motion
Selecting Munich over a Chinese venue for the global debut is deliberate:
- Europe is Xpeng's primary export focus
- Germany as an automotive powerhouse lends technical credibility
- IAA Mobility in Munich ranks among the world's premier automotive exhibitions
The timeline reveals a calculated rhythm:
- July 2 China pre-sale — gauge domestic market response
- July 16 Munich debut — target global media and dealer networks
- Expected Q4 deliveries in major European markets
Implications for Central Asia and Russia
Xpeng has not officially entered Russia or Central Asia, yet its product attributes align closely with regional needs:
- The range-extender's 1,330km combined range suits vast, sparsely populated territories
- Turing AI-powered driving assistance handles complex road conditions
- The price bracket (14-17万元) converts competitively in Central Asian markets
Russian importers have already brought in Xpeng G6 and G9 through parallel channels with positive feedback. The MONA L03 would further diversify the available model portfolio.
