BYD Sealion 7 vs XPeng G6 2025 review: Which new Chinese electric car is the best family SUV?

Описание: Australia is awash with new Chinese car brands, the vast majority of which are launching with fully electric vehicles, mostly in the extremely popular mid-size SUV segment. It figures, then, that this expert review sees CarsGuide Deputy News Editor Tom White comparing the already best-selling BYD Sealion 7 with the critically acclaimed XPeng G6.

The Sealion 7 is a style-focused coupe SUV, while the less-interesting-to-look-at G6 isn't far off with its steeply raked exterior design. Either way, the two models are offering family car buyers both similar and different things.

The BYD's entry-level Premium variant comes with an 82.6kWh battery pack that delivers 482km of WLTP-certified driving range. The XPeng's base-spec Standard Range has a smaller, 66kWh unit that lasts 435km between charges.

Under the bonnet, the Sealion 7 has a single rear-mounted electric motor with 230kW of power and 380Nm of torque, while the G6 has a similar set-up but with 190kW/440Nm.
So, which model is best? Watch on to find out.
