In brief

Xpeng has opened pre-sales for the Mona L05 SUV in China. Prices range from 169,800 to 191,800 yuan, or approximately 98,600 to 111,400 PLN.
The version with an internal combustion engine acting as a power generator has a range of 1310 km on a full tank and battery, including 310 km on electricity alone, according to the Chinese CLTC standard.
Sources provide varying range figures for the fully electric version: from 535 to 660 km. The official premiere in China is scheduled for October 29.

A new SUV in the Mona family

Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer Xpeng opened pre-sales for the Mona L05 model on October 15, 2026. It is a mid-size five-seater SUV and the third model in the budget-friendly Mona family. According to CnEVPost, it is positioned higher than the compact Mona L03, which entered the market in July.

The car is 4870 mm long, 1930 mm wide, and 1636 mm high. The wheelbase is 2940 mm. CarNewsChina reports that the trunk has a capacity of 702 liters, expanding to 1913 liters with the seats folded, and there is an additional 102-liter storage compartment in the front. The interior features include a 17.3-inch touchscreen, a head-up display, a rear-seat passenger screen, and a passenger seat that reclines into a semi-lying position.

Prices and conversion to PLN

According to CnEVPost, pre-sale prices are as follows: The electric 535 Max version costs 169,800 yuan, the 635 Max 179,800 yuan, and the 635 Ultra SE 191,800 yuan. The range-extender 1310 Max version costs 169,800 yuan, and the 1310 Ultra SE 181,800 yuan. Those who pay a 1,000 yuan deposit will receive a 3,000 yuan discount on the purchase.

Based on the average NBP exchange rate from October 16, 2026 (1 yuan = 0.5806 PLN), the cheapest version costs approximately 98,600 PLN, and the most expensive about 111,400 PLN. This is only a conversion of the Chinese price and does not include transport, customs duties, or taxes. Sources do not state if or when the model will reach Europe.

Range: what is certain and what is not

The range-extender version features a 1.5L gasoline engine. According to CarNewsChina, its power output is 70 kW. The engine does not drive the wheels but charges a 37.2 kWh battery. The car is expected to travel 310 km on electricity alone, and a total of 1310 km with a full tank and charged battery. Both sources agree on these figures.

The situation is different for the fully electric version. CnEVPost mentions two ranges: 535 km with a 58.2 kWh battery and 635 km with a 71.1 kWh battery. CarNewsChina lists a 71.1 kWh battery and four values: 615, 635, 640, and 660 km. The only common value is 635 km. All data refers to the Chinese CLTC standard, which differs from the European WLTP, so they cannot be directly compared with the results of cars sold in Poland.

Each version has a single electric motor at the rear with 183 kW of power. According to CnEVPost, the cheaper Max versions have one Turing chip for driving assistance, while the more expensive Ultra SE versions have two.

What this means for the market

Xpeng needs sales. According to CnEVPost, the company delivered 41,256 cars to customers in September. From January to September, the total was 284,367 cars, 9.2 percent less than the previous year. The goal for the fourth quarter is over 60,000 cars per month. According to the manufacturer, the Mona family has exceeded 350,000 delivered cars in about two years.

A large SUV priced under 100,000 PLN (converted) shows how aggressively Chinese manufacturers are competing on price in their home market. Xpeng will announce final prices at the premiere on October 29.
