Side-by-Side Specs
| Spec | Tesla Model 3 | XPENG P7 |
|---|---|---|
| Battery (approx.) | ~57.5 kWh | ~83 kWh |
| WLTP range (rated) | ~513 km | ~580 km |
| Efficiency (approx.) | ~147 Wh/km | ~167 Wh/km |
| Max DC charging | up to 175 kW | up to 175 kW |
| 10-80% charge time (approx.) | ~24 min | ~28 min |
| Max AC charging | up to 11 kW | up to 11 kW |
| DC connector | CCS2 | CCS2 |
Charging Speed
The XPENG P7 has a peak DC charging speed of 175 kW, which is comparable to the Tesla Model 3 at 175 kW. In practice, peak speed only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.
For the 10-80% charge (the most common DC fast charging scenario), the Tesla Model 3 finishes in about 24 minutes, which is 4 minutes quicker than the XPENG P7 at 28 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.
Range and Efficiency
The XPENG P7 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 580 km, which is roughly 67 km more than the Tesla Model 3 at approximately 513 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.
Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Tesla Model 3 consumes 147 Wh/km, compared to 167 Wh/km for the XPENG P7. That means the Tesla Model 3 uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.
A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The XPENG P7 has approximately 83 kWh of useable battery , while the Tesla Model 3 has approximately 57.5 kWh.
Which One Should You Choose?
Both cars offer similar DC fast charging at 175 kW peak. For road trips, the one with more range between stops may be more practical.
Both cars support 11 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.
If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Tesla Model 3 is the more efficient choice at 147 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.
For maximum range between charges, the XPENG P7 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 580 km, which is roughly 67 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.

From Finn, engineer: Charging specs alone do not tell the full story. Real-world charging speed depends on battery temperature, state of charge, and the charger itself. These comparisons use manufacturer-published data. Approximate values only.
