Bermaz offers a manufacturer’s warranty of five years/120,000 km, along with a complimentary service package for five years/100,000 km. Additionally, a high-voltage battery warranty is provided for eight years/160,000 km.
All three variants come equipped with a single electric motor on the front axle, producing 315 hp and 450 Nm of torque. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes just 7.7 seconds, and the maximum speed can reach 200 km/h.
Interestingly, the X9 is available with two types of batteries. The Standard Range 2WD Pro is equipped with an LFP 84.5 kWh battery that offers a WLTP range of 500 km, while the Long Range variants feature an NMC 101.5 kWh battery, providing a range of 590 km.
The X9 supports fast DC charging with a capacity of up to 317 kW, allowing the battery to be charged from 10% to 80% in just 20 minutes.
According to Xpeng, the X9 is the world’s first BEV 7-seater MPV to feature a front and rear-integrated die-cast aluminum body structure, enhancing safety and durability.
Additionally, the model is equipped with an active rear wheel steering system paired with dual-chamber air suspension, providing it with a turning radius of 5.4 metres.
Stepping inside, you will be greeted by starship-inspired cockpit. The Standard Range 2WD Pro and Long Range 2WD Pro are fitted with leatherette upholstery, while the Long Range 2WD Pro Plus gets Zero Gravity seats covered in Nappa leather.
The standout feature here is the 21.3-inch infotainment screen, complemented by the X-Opera audio system with 23 speakers that delivers concert-quality audio, along with an advanced air purification system.
The X9 comes with a seven-seat configuration but can be converted to a four-seat layout at the press of a button, which in turn will fold down the third-row seats, expanding the boot capacity from 755 litres to 2,554 litres.
For added comfort, features such as third-row seat adjustment, massage functions, and a smart fridge are also included.
In terms of safety, the X9 is equipped with the XPilot 2.5 system, which encompasses features like Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Stop & Go, Lane Centreing Control (LCC), Adaptive Turning Cruise (ATC), Intelligent Speed Limit Assist (SAS), and Active Lane Change (ALC).
Parking is made easier with the Enhanced Auto Parking Assist (EAP 2.0), Auto Exit Parking Assist (AEP), and Straight Summon, which can be accessed via the XPeng mobile app.
Other safety highlights include six airbags, Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Blind-Spot Detection (BSD), Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA).
The X9 is fully imported (CBU) from China and is available in three exterior colours, namely Nebula White, Crescent Silver, and Dark Night Black. As for the cabin, there are two shades to choose from – Starry Night Black and Moon Shadow Brown.
