Key Takeaways
- XPENG's Australian page now carries the L03 with up to 520km WLTP range, 10 to 80 per cent in 20 minutes and a 4.5-second AWD 0-100km/h
- Australian outlets report pricing from $41,900 plus on-road costs and pre-orders from 24 September, but XPENG's own L03 page still shows no price
- The L03 does not appear at all on shop.xpeng.com.au, XPENG Australia's own sales site, which lists only the G6 and the X9
- Most of the detailed spec list is published on XPENG's global L03 page, not the Australian one, and a global page can describe hardware Australia never gets
- XPENG's own footnote: "All technical data are subject to final type approval. Data has been obtained during internal testing."
- The reported range runs from $41,900 to $53,900 plus on-road costs, with the range-extender at the same $41,900 as the entry battery-electric version

Update, 1 October 2026: Australian outlets report L03 pricing from $41,900 plus on-road costs, attributed to XPENG Australia and New Zealand, with pre-orders from 24 September. As at 1 October that price has not appeared on XPENG's Australian L03 page, which still offers only Register Your Interest, so we quote it below as reported.
XPENG has put the L03 in front of Australian buyers, with Australian-facing numbers attached. The price has been reported by Australian outlets, but XPENG's own L03 page does not print it.
That gap between what is reported and what XPENG publishes is the story. It is also a gap you can check yourself in about thirty seconds, and the rest of this article is mostly us showing where we looked.
Where XPeng Australia Actually Publishes the L03
XPENG runs two Australian-facing surfaces, and they disagree about whether the L03 exists.
shop.xpeng.com.au is where XPENG Australia sells cars. As at 25 September 2026 it lists exactly two: the New G6, described as an Ultra Smart Coupé SUV, and the X9, the Ultra Intelligent 7 Seater. The L03 appears zero times. Neither of the two cars that are listed carries a displayed price either, with both pointing to an Enquire Now flow instead.
The XPENG Australia page on the global site is the one that carries the L03. It sits there as the "Next-Gen AI SUV Coupe", marked Coming Soon, with a three-stat block and a Register Your Interest button where a price and a configurator would normally be. There is a second Australian L03 campaign page, and that one is thinner again: marketing lines, an early-access signup, a note that the features shown in the visuals are not standard across all models, and no specifications or price at all.
One practical warning if you go looking. That three-stat block does not always populate. On some loads it renders as "Up to 0km", "0.0s" and "In 0minutes". Those zeroes are an empty template, not a specification, and they are worth mentioning because a zero looks like data in a way a blank space does not.
The Three Numbers Australia Has Been Given
These are the only L03 figures XPENG puts on an Australian-facing page, plus the price as reported by Australian outlets.
| Spec | XPENG figure | Source page |
|---|---|---|
| WLTP electric range | Up to 520 km | XPENG Australia page |
| 10 to 80 per cent charge | 20 min | XPENG Australia page |
| 0-100 km/h (AWD) | 4.5 s | XPENG Australia page |
| Australian price | Not on XPENG's page | Reported from $41,900 plus on-road costs |
Current price on CarSorted: XPeng G6 Standard Range RWD $51,800 RRP, as at 24 Jun 2026; XPeng G6 Long Range RWD $56,800 RRP, as at 21 Oct 2026; XPeng X9 Standard Range FWD $89,900 RRP, as at 4 Oct 2026.
Everything Else Is a Global-Page Claim
The richer spec list exists, but it lives on XPENG's global L03 page rather than an Australian one. That distinction matters more than it sounds. A global page describes the car XPENG builds, not the car Australia certifies, and local specification routinely differs on towing, equipment and even powertrain availability. Treat every row below as a global claim awaiting Australian confirmation.
| Spec | XPENG global figure | AU confirmed? |
|---|---|---|
| Powertrain | Pure-electric or extended-range | No |
| Combined range (range-extender) | Over 1,000 km | No |
| Braked towing | 1,500 kg, standard across range | No |
| Rear cargo space | 539 L | No |
| Front trunk | 102 L | No |
| Under-seat drawer | 10 L | No |
| Centre touchscreen | 15.6 in | No |
| Instrument cluster | 8.88 in | No |
| Head-up display | Listed, size not published | No |
| Airbags | 7 as standard | No |
| Driver monitoring, child presence detection | Both listed | No |
| Panoramic sunroof | 1.31 m² | No |
| Rear seats | 40/20/40 split-folding | No |
| Doors and mirrors | Frameless | No |
| Drag coefficient | Cd 0.228 | No |
| Turning circle | 10.5 m | No |
XPENG attaches its own caveat to all of it, and it is worth quoting rather than paraphrasing: "All technical data are subject to final type approval. Data has been obtained during internal testing." That is a manufacturer telling you its own numbers are provisional. It applies to the Australian stat block too.
A few things XPENG describes but does not put a number on: a 400-volt architecture, dual Turing chips running the driving and cabin software, dual-motor all-wheel drive with Snow, Slippery and Escape modes, and vehicle-to-load on every variant. No V2L output in watts, no battery capacity in kWh, no kerb weight, no dimensions. Those are all no data.

See all XPeng modelsWhat We Can Say by Comparison, Using Our Own Rows
Without a price published by XPENG, we hold none against our L03 row. Here is what our own data supports.
On boot space, the L03's claimed 539L is the same figure our Zeekr 7X rows carry, and it sits below the 571L on both XPeng G6 rows and well below the 854L our Tesla Model Y rows carry. It is above the Geely EX5 at 302L and the BYD Atto 3 EVO Premium at 490L. Of the 283 on-sale electric rows where we hold a boot figure, 70 are at 539L or more, so the L03 would land inside the roomier quarter of the electric field rather than at the top of it.
On towing, 1,500kg braked reads well in a press line and is unremarkable in this market. Of the 244 on-sale electric rows where we hold a braked figure, 137 are rated at 1,500kg or better, including both G6 rear-drive rows at 1,500kg and the Model Y at 1,600kg. We hold no braked towing figure at all for the Geely EX5 or the Zeekr 7X, which is no data rather than a zero. A tow rating on its own does not tell you whether a given trailer actually fits inside the car's other limits, so if you are shopping this class to tow, our towing and payload calculator measures a real load against published payload, GVM, GCM and tow-ball ratings for the cars we do hold figures for. The L03 is not in it yet, because we hold none of those numbers for it.
On range, the up-to-520km WLTP claim would sit between our two rear-drive G6 rows, which carry 435km and 570km WLTP. Both Zeekr 7X long-range rows carry more, at 615km. But this is exactly the comparison to hold loosely: XPENG's figure is an "up to", it is pre-type-approval by XPENG's own footnote, and we do not know which battery or which drivetrain it belongs to.
A WLTP number is also a lab number, and the gap between it and a cold winter highway run is the part that decides whether a car suits your week. Our range calculator models how speed and outside temperature move it, and the highway efficiency comparator ranks cars at 110km/h using drag coefficient and weight rather than battery size alone, which is the comparison a Cd of 0.228 would actually be competing in. Both run on the G6, Model Y and Zeekr 7X figures we hold. Neither can run the L03 until XPENG publishes a battery capacity and a kerb weight.
On price, the reported $41,900 plus on-road costs would open the L03 range $9,900 below the $51,800 our G6 rows carry before on-road costs. That comparison rests on a reported figure rather than one XPENG has printed, so hold it as loosely as the range claim.
The Reported Price List
Several separately written Australian reports carry the same four-variant list, attributed to XPENG Australia and New Zealand, with pre-orders opening on 24 September 2026. All prices are plus on-road costs.
| Variant (reported) | Powertrain | Price, plus on-road costs |
|---|---|---|
| RWD Standard Range | Battery-electric | $41,900 |
| PowerX Long Range | Range-extender | $41,900 |
| RWD Long Range | Battery-electric | $46,900 |
| AWD Performance Ultra | Battery-electric | $53,900 |
Our sourcing rule is that a price we store against a car has to come from the manufacturer's own Australian material. So these figures are in this article as reported, and they are not in our database. When XPENG prints them on its own page, we will carry them against the L03 the same day.
So the position as at 1 October 2026: the price has been reported, but XPENG's Australian L03 page shows no price and no on-sale or delivery date, and the L03 has no order page on XPENG's Australian shop.
Where the L03 Sits in XPeng's Australian Plan
XPENG Australia sells two cars today: the G6 from $51,800 before on-road costs across its rear-drive rows, and the X9 seven-seater at $89,900 before on-road costs, both figures from our own rows. The L03 would slot in underneath the G6 as the smaller, newer car, and at a reported $41,900 plus on-road costs it would open the range well below the G6, which matters to anyone currently deciding between a G6 and something else.
The other L03 detail already on the record is software. XPENG told Australian media in June 2026 that its VLA 2.0 supervised driving system would arrive here from 2027, free for owners, and that it needs the newer Turing chip platform, which the current G6 does not have. The L03 does. That makes it the first XPENG sold here that could run it, though XPENG has not restated that timing on either Australian L03 page.

What This Means For Buyers
If you are waiting on an L03, the reported pre-order date was 24 September. XPENG's own L03 page still offers only Register Your Interest, which is not a deposit, a queue position or a price hold, so confirm the price and terms in writing before paying anything.
If you are shopping the sub-$60,000 electric SUV shelf right now, the reported L03 prices put it on that shelf, but until XPENG prints them, compare with care. The cars already priced by their manufacturers and already rated are the Geely EX5, BYD Atto 3, Zeekr 7X and the Tesla Model Y, plus XPENG's own G6.
And if you tow, wait for the Australian figure rather than the global one. Braked towing is set at local certification, and the 1,500kg on XPENG's global page has not been confirmed for this market.
We will add an Australian price to the L03 listing on the day XPENG Australia publishes one, and not before.
