Five hundred units in three weeks.
That’s how many XPENG L03 cars were sold in Singapore within three weeks of its debut at The Car Expo 2026. XPENG has now officially launched the L03 here. The rear-wheel-drive Plus Long Range is available first, and the all-wheel-drive Ultra will follow in the coming months.
The L03 is XPENG’s newest SUV coupé in Singapore. It joins the G6 coupé SUV and the X9 MPV in a lineup that’s retailed exclusively by Premium Automobiles, which has been XPENG’s local partner since July 2024. Its pitch is simple: a coupé silhouette, with the space and flexibility of an SUV underneath.
The exterior was developed under JuanMa Lopez, who used to head exterior design at Ferrari. Frameless doors and semi-flush door handles keep the profile clean, while full-width front and rear lighting gives the car a distinctive signature.

Pricing and Variants
The L03 RWD Plus Long Range is priced from S$202,999. With a power output of 99kW, it falls within Cat A COE, which is a key draw for buyers who want a new-generation EV without moving into the pricier Cat B.
The AWD Ultra will follow later. It adds all-wheel-drive performance and XPENG’s proprietary Turing AI chip. Pricing and full specifications for the Ultra have not yet been announced.
Practicality: Made to Fit More
Practicality is where the L03 makes its strongest case. XPENG has clearly designed the car around everyday use, and the numbers back that up.
The Frunk
The RWD Plus Long Range has a 102-litre front trunk. The AWD Ultra’s frunk is 69 litres, since its front motor takes up some of the space. Either way, it gives you storage that’s separate from the main cargo area. It suits charging cables, wet umbrellas or a gym bag, so the rear boot stays free for groceries and luggage.
The Boot
Both variants have 539 litres of rear cargo space. That’s a generous figure for a car with a sloping coupé roofline. A powered electric tailgate makes loading easier when your hands are full. The tonneau cover keeps belongings out of sight, and there are bag hooks and a boot light.
The rear seats fold in a 40/20/40 split. This is more flexible than the more common 60/40 split. You can fold just the centre section for long items such as skis or a flat-pack box, and still seat two passengers in the rear.
Storage Throughout the Cabin
XPENG says there are 37 storage spaces across the car, plus 19 mounting points for accessories. One of the more thoughtful examples is a pull-out drawer beneath the rear seat. It’s ideal for wet wipes, snacks, documents or charging cables that would otherwise end up loose on the floor.
The Rear Bench
The rear bench has three full headrests and a fairly flat floor, so the middle seat is usable rather than an afterthought. Rear-seat space is good for a coupé-shaped car. The wide, curved rear windshield and panoramic glass roof also help the cabin feel open rather than enclosed.
Performance and Charging
The RWD Plus Long Range produces 99kW and 280Nm of torque, with a top speed of 180km/h. Those figures are tuned for efficiency and smooth daily driving rather than outright pace. Buyers who want stronger performance should wait for the AWD Ultra.
The 71.2kWh LFP battery provides up to 520km of WLTP range. For most Singapore drivers, that means charging roughly once a week. LFP batteries are also known for their durability and tolerance of frequent full charges. When you need a quick top-up, a 10% to 80% charge takes about 20 minutes.
The suspension uses MacPherson struts at the front and a multi-link independent setup at the rear. There are four driving modes: Eco, Standard, Sport and Individual.
The AWD Ultra
The Ultra adds all-wheel drive and XPENG’s in-house Turing AI chip. XPENG says the chip delivers class-leading computing power and is used across its AI cars, flying cars and humanoid robots. The display unit at the launch wore a Performance badge and yellow brake calipers.
Cabin Comfort and Connectivity
The cabin is built around a 15.6-inch central touchscreen and a 26.8-inch ultra-wide head-up display, which keeps key driving information in your line of sight. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come as standard, so you can use your phone’s navigation and music apps without plugging in a cable.
The front seats are heated and ventilated. Ventilation is especially welcome in Singapore’s climate. The panoramic glass roof has thermal and UV protection to help keep the cabin cool.
Buyers can choose between Dark Gray and Light Gray interiors. The cabin also has 256-colour wraparound ambient lighting.
Driver Assistance and Safety
The L03 comes with XPENG’s XPILOT Assist suite. It includes Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering Control, which are useful on expressway drives and in stop-start traffic. Automated Parking Assist helps you move into and out of parking spaces. This is one of the most affordable vehicles available in Singapore with Automated Parking Assist.
On the safety side, the car has Autonomous Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Detection and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. It also has seven airbags, a tyre-pressure monitoring system and Driver State Monitoring.
What Premium Automobiles and XPENG Say
Ms Cindy Tanaga, General Manager of Premium Automobiles, said the L03 “strengthens the range of XPENG models we offer Singapore drivers,” adding that its “combination of design, space, and versatility broadens the appeal of the XPENG portfolio.”
Dominic Tan, Sales Manager of XPENG Singapore, highlighted the car’s everyday focus: “From its frunk to its generous rear cargo space, it makes good use of space while retaining the distinctive character of an SUV coupé.”
Verdict
The L03 RWD Plus Long Range offers a lot for a Cat A EV. You get 520km of WLTP range, 539 litres of boot space plus a 102-litre frunk, a full driver-assistance suite and ventilated front seats, all from S$202,999. Selling 500 units in three weeks suggests Singapore buyers agree.
If you want all-wheel drive and XPENG’s Turing AI chip, it’s worth waiting for the Ultra’s pricing before you decide. For everyone else, the Plus is a well-rounded, practical choice.
Test drives are available at the XPENG Singapore Showroom located at 281 Alexandra Road, Singapore 159938.
