The 800 V architecture is the XPENG P7+ strongest asset, confirmed repeatedly in tests and by owners.

What tests say

• Peak charging ~400-450 kW — measured 350-400 kW in practice (Bjørn Nyland, ELEKTROBAYS, Move Electric).
• 10-80% in about 12 minutes on a >=350-400 kW charger; many reviewers measure 12-14 min.
• The charging curve holds high power well above 80%.
• LFP battery — safe to charge to 100%, high cycle durability.
• Downside: AC charging only 11 kW (no 22 kW) — matters for home charging.

What owners say

• “17% to 77% in exactly 10 minutes”.
• “The XPeng charges faster at 88% than my Model Y at 50%“.
• “300 km of range after about 10 minutes at mild temperatures — simply great” (translated from German).
• Comparison: “17 to 91 SOC: XPeng P7+ 16.5 min vs Tesla Model Y ~43 min”.

Long-distance test

• Peak 399 kW; on a 300 kW station it holds ~300 kW for a long time.
• 10-80% in ~14:50 (record 13 min); 7-90% in 19 min, average 222 kW.
• Rule of thumb: 300 km -> 12 min charging, 350 km -> 14 min.
• Power dips (down to ~174 kW) — suspected hot battery or non-water-cooled cable.

Bottom line: if you drive long routes, P7+ charging is in a class of its own. At home, expect 11 kW AC.
