XPeng Mona M03: electric compact car, generations and what to know
XPeng Mona M03 — compact electric car, launched in August 2024 and developed by the former DiDi design team. We look at the generations, batteries, charging and what you need to know before buying.
Mona M03 in brief
Mona M03 — the first model in the XPeng Mona line. This line is aimed at the more affordable mass-market segment of electric vehicles. In China, it falls into the A class, which corresponds to the C segment worldwide.
The original car was developed by DiDi, but in August 2023, the project was acquired by XPeng. The name “Mona” is explained by XPeng as “Made Of New AI”, while the M03 number is a nod to the Tesla Model 3.
Versions — what’s the difference
Initially, three versions were offered: 515, 620 and 580 Max — the numbers indicate the CLTC range in kilometres. In May 2025, the Max version with city-condition monitored autonomous driving will be introduced.
Primary market — China. Whether the model is sold in Lithuania, you need to check with the official representative.
Batteries, engine and charging
The 515 version has a 51.8 kWh battery, while the 620 and 580 Max have 62.2 kWh. Both batteries are of the LFP type (FinDreams Blade) and can be charged from 30–80% in about 26 minutes.
The front houses a single electric motor. The 0–100 km/h time is 7.8 seconds for the base version and 7.4 seconds for the 620 and 580 Max versions.
XPeng claims that the car’s aerodynamic drag is one of the lowest among mass-produced electric vehicles (Cd 0.194). At the front, there’s a MacPherson strut, and at the rear, a torsion beam.
What to check when buying a Mona M03
The model is new, so there isn't much long-term reliability data available yet. Request a full history and check if the car has European conformity documents.
Request a battery health (SOH) check and test both fast and slow charging. Ensure the charging port and cable are compatible.
Some features, especially driver-assistance systems and software, may be tailored for the Chinese market. Check the warranty and service availability.
