Verdict
The RM19,760 step from RM159,948 to RM179,708 buys the Long Range a larger 80.8-kWh battery, 525 km of stated range and a 292-hp rear motor. That is 45 km more range for drivers who regularly cover long intercity distances, while its 451-kW DC charging rate also has more headroom than the Standard Range’s 382 kW. But the Standard Range keeps the same 440 Nm, 571-litre boot, seven airbags and broad convenience kit. For city and mixed-use Malaysian driving, it is the sharper buy; frequent highway users should stretch to the Long Range.
Pick the Xpeng G6 RWD Standard Range if 480 km of stated range covers your routine and you would rather save RM19,760 without giving up 440 Nm, seven airbags or the 571-litre boot.
Pick the Xpeng G6 RWD Long Range if the extra 45 km of stated range, 292 hp motor, faster 451-kW DC charging capability and front-seat massage matter on your regular longer trips.
