The Xpeng P7 boasts a polished, aggressive front end reminiscent of contemporary luxury names, while the sweeping lines and active rear wing add a dash of sportiness. Meanwhile, the Tesla Model 3, post-facelift, enhances its sleek charm with sharper headlamps and a refined silhouette, resembling a more grown-up Roadster.
Both vehicles have their charm: the P7 edges ahead with boldness, while the Model 3 plays it safe but classy.

The P7’s cabin oozes modernity with high-quality materials, an inviting layout, and a spacious feel — think of it as your stylish living room on wheels! In contrast, while the Model 3's interior is functional with solid material improvements, it still leans heavily on the minimalist approach that some may find a tad stark.
The spaciousness in the Xpeng P7 outdoes the Model 3, offering comfy seating for five and ample cargo space. The Tesla, while also capable, feels slightly cramped in comparison with its boot, which is decent but nothing to write home about.
If comfort and roominess are non-negotiables for you, the P7 clearly takes the cake!

The P7 packs a punch with its powerful battery architecture, expected to deliver an exhilarating driving experience that might close in on Tesla’s iconic warp speeds. The Model 3, boasting a range of configurations up to 510 hp, provides exhilarating acceleration, especially in the Performance trim.
While the P7 promises an engaging drive with a sporty setup, the Model 3 outshines with its dynamism, flawlessly mixing performance with comfort, even though that lack of manual controls around tight turns can leave you wishing for a traditional setup.

The P7 gets high marks for its user-friendly system with a vibrant screen that almost rivals a TV, whereas the Model 3 retains its dominant minimalist approach, which can be a puzzle for newcomers (hello, phantom indicator syndrome!).
The P7 comes equipped with multiple niche features like an AI that helps in avoiding pitfalls, while the Model 3 boasts a seamless Supercharger network and remote updates that keep your tech fresh as daisies.
Cargo space in the Xpeng P7 is generous, akin to a small car boot! The Tesla Model 3, however, has decent space but can’t quite match the versatility offered by the P7.

BOBI'S VERDICT
The Xpeng P7 is still wrapping up its pricing strategy for broader markets, while the Model 3 edges in with its known price range starting around £39,990. A good deal in the EV market, but keep an eye on potential discounts that could be lurking around the corner!
In the battle of the electric saloons, the Xpeng P7 dazzles with comfort, tech, and style, making it a car for the future. On the other hand, the Tesla Model 3 is still the benchmark when it comes to performance and infrastructure. If you want a fun, tech-laden ride, the P7 is hard to beat; if you're looking for performance, charging accessibility, and a brand that’s synonymous with electric vehicles, the Model 3 remains a compelling choice. Grab your wallets, it's going to be a fun ride no matter which you choose!
