XPENG’s Mona M03 has been essential to the corporate’s EV gross sales development and march towards profitability this 12 months. Throughout the primary 11 months of the 12 months, 163,299 items of the Mona M03 had been delivered. That’s about 42% of the corporate’s 391,937 whole deliveries.
Now, the M03 is getting a refresh (already, nearly a 12 months and a half after it was launched).
The up to date M03 is simply 5 mm longer than the present model, based on a latest authorities submitting, whereas different exterior dimensions are the identical.
It’s not clear what can be modified so far as the inside goes, however it would absolutely get some updates and upgrades.
What is obvious is the mannequin will get a bit extra vary. As an alternative of a prime rated vary of 620 km (385 miles), it would have a prime rated vary of 640 km (398 miles). Not the largest deal, but it surely simply reveals how battery know-how (and/or aerodynamics) continues to enhance.
XPENG already provides amazingly reasonably priced vehicles for the tech and specs you get, however the Mona model is much more affordability oriented. The M03 is its solely mannequin up to now, however the nonetheless engaging, high-tech automobile comes at a worth of simply RMB 119,800 ($17,045). That’s ridiculous.
It’s no shock the Mona M03 sells so nicely, and one would suppose that may proceed in 2026 if the mannequin is getting improved and refreshed already. Additionally, it seems extra choices can be coming. The present mannequin comes with two completely different battery choices, throughout 4 variants. You possibly can both get it with a 51.8-kWh battery or a 62.2-kWh battery. Nonetheless, the brand new authorities submitting lists three battery sizes — 51.8-kWh, 61.6-kWh, and 62.2-kWh. So, one would suppose extra choices are coming.
Will the Mona M03 rating much more gross sales in 2026? I assume there’s an excellent probability of that!
