Price Breakdown
The Honda Accord starts from $59,900 (our estimated RRP; the brand lists drive-away prices only) before on-road costs, while the XPeng G6 opens at $51,800. Both land at the same RRP, so on-road costs and dealer deals become the real differentiator.
Once you factor in stamp duty, registration, CTP insurance, and dealer delivery, expect to add roughly 8-12% on top of the RRP depending on your state. That puts estimated driveaway prices in the ballpark of $65,890 and $56,980 respectively.
The XPeng G6 currently qualifies for the electric-vehicle FBT exemption, which can dramatically reduce the effective cost for novated lease buyers. The Honda Accord does not: only battery-electric vehicles qualify.
