[2] At Auto Shanghai[3] in April 2021, XPeng presented the third model of its brand,[3] complementing the offer as a cheaper and smaller alternative to the flagship P7.

Headlights made in LED technology were connected by a light strip between them,[4] while the charging port was located in the right front fender.

The passenger compartment is kept in a minimalist design, dominated by a vast vertical multimedia system touch screen located at an angle between the edge of the dashboard and the central tunnel, characterised by a 15.6-inch diagonal.

[6][7] The P5 is the first mass-produced car in history to be optionally equipped with the advanced LiDAR Technology autonomous driving system.

[10] The fully electric drive system of the P5 has a maximum range of approximately 600 km (370 mi) on a single charge.
