2025 XPENG G6 LONG RANGE AUSTRALIA ROAD TRIP PT 2: MELBOURNE TO SYDNEY

EV Channels Review

This video documents the return leg of an Australia road trip in the 2025 Xpeng G6 Long Range, from Melbourne to Sydney. The reviewers opted for a three-stop charging strategy, contrasting with their previous two-stop journey. Key highlights include praise for the Xpilot system, which is deemed as good as, if not better than, Tesla's basic Autopilot, particularly for its automatic re-engagement after manual control. Ride comfort and noise insulation are also commended, with the reviewer noting a lack of fatigue even after a 3-hour driving stint. However, the primary criticism revolves around Australia's charging infrastructure, specifically the inability to use Tesla Superchargers with the G6 and the slow, unreliable charging speeds at non-Tesla stations, particularly the BP Pulse in Glenrowan and Woolworths in Yass. Despite these infrastructure challenges, the Xpeng G6's trip estimator proved accurate, and the car itself is described as comfortable and close to perfect, with the charging experience being the main drawback for this route.
