XPENG was nominated in three categories at this year's Auto Awards, namely Car Brand of the Year, Family Car of the Year (G9) and Technological Frontrunner of the Year (G9).
In the categories where XPENG was nominated, prizes were awarded by a car jury consisting of motoring journalists, where their votes weighed 80% and the votes of the public weighed 20%.
Technological Frontrunner of the Year is awarded to a car that has raised the technological bar the most. With the market's highest charging speed of up to 300 kW, the XPENG G9 has pushed Danes' range anxiety, as it is possible to charge the large SUV from 10-80% in just 20 minutes. The G9 is also packed with comfort and safety equipment as a standard, which helps to democratize the traditionally expensive extra equipment.
XPENG Denmark's Head of Marketing, Joachim Wishart Hummel-Gryholm, stated: "We are very proud to receive this award - and especially this one, as it is the award that looks the most into the future of the auto market and what it has to offer. It is the core of XPENG's philosophy to offer cutting-edge technology and mobility to customers. We delivered the first cars just three months ago, and we are only just getting started.”
