Tesla Model 3 vs. Xpeng P7
Tesla is seeing success in Chinas electric vehicle market, but native company Xpeng may have a fighting chance to compete. Xpengs new P7 sedan is the companys second production model and has some impressive benchmark results. Some configurations of the car can accelerate to 100 kilometers (about 62 miles) per hour in 4.3 seconds, and it can travel about 200 miles farther on a charge than a Tesla Model 3. (Xpeng is using a different battery benchmarking standard than Tesla, so range comparisons may not be perfect reflections of reality.) Xpeng is also hoping that its vehicles pricing makes them more attractive than Teslas offerings -- the P7 starts at 229,900 yuan (about $36,000), while the Model 3 starts at 344,050 yuan (about $48,500).
