Vehicle model
XPeng G3
The XPeng G3 is the brand's first production vehicle, a compact electric SUV that entered production in November 2018. Intended for versatile urban and family use, it laid the foundations of the XPeng identity: assisted driving, digital cabin and over-the-air updates. Depending on the version, it was offered with batteries of about 50 to 66 kWh and announced ranges climbing to more than 500 km on the Chinese cycle. A restyled version, the G3i, appeared in 2021 with a modernized presentation and an approved WLTP range of about 420 km. The G3 was also one of XPeng's first exported models, notably to Norway, kicking off its European strategy. For tires and wheels, this compact SUV fits medium-diameter wheels; in Quebec, winter tires with the mountain-snowflake rating are essential for traction and safety in cold weather.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les XPeng sont des véhicules électriques lourds aux jantes de grand diamètre : selon les modèles et finitions, on rencontre généralement des roues de 19 à 21 pouces, avec des pneus à flancs bas et indices de charge élevés adaptés au poids des batteries. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) constaté sur certains modèles comme le G6 est de type 5x112, courant chez les VE de conception européenne ou chinoise; vérifier le PCD, l'alésage et le déport exacts par modèle et année avant tout achat. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués (symbole montagne-flocon) sont obligatoires et fortement recommandés pour ces véhicules électriques au couple instantané; prévoir un montage hiver dédié, souvent en diamètre réduit, pour préserver l'autonomie et la motricité.
