He Xiaopeng Announces MONA L03 Design Team

XPeng Motors recently announced that the second model in its MONA series, the L03, will officially debut in July this year. Positioned as a smart and stylish SUV targeting young consumers, the company calls it “the first smart and stylish SUV for the younger generation.”

According to XPeng Motors Chairman He Xiaopeng, who shared details on social media, the MONA L03 was developed by an independently assembled global design team, led by Juanma López, who spent eight years at Ferrari and oversaw the design of several classic models. He Xiaopeng stated that the automotive industry has long had a tendency to allocate core design resources to flagship models, while products targeting younger users often lack dedicated design investment. The launch of the MONA series aims to break this trend. Based on research into the aesthetic needs of younger consumers, the design team created a bespoke design philosophy for the L03, with core team members all possessing experience in developing successful models for global markets.

According to previously submitted information from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the MONA L03 measures 4650mm in length, 1920mm in width, and 1600mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2850mm. Its overall dimensions are slightly smaller than the XPeng G6, but it ranks in the upper-middle tier among vehicles in its class. Compared to competitors such as the BYD Yuan PLUS and GAC Aion AION Y Plus, the L03 holds an advantage in wheelbase, which is expected to deliver a more spacious interior.

Regarding the product planning for the MONA series, the company disclosed that the internal project code for the series is “MONALISA.” Among them, the letter M represents sedan models, corresponding to the already launched M03; the letter L represents SUV models, corresponding to the upcoming L03. These two models cover different body styles, together forming the complete MONALISA product lineup. With the imminent launch of the L03, XPeng Motors’ product matrix in the segmented market will be further enriched.
