Update Xpeng G6 and G9 launched in Europe

Despite major technical updates, prices remain at the same level. The G6 Long Range RWD still starts at 47,600 euros, the basic G9 at 59,600 euros. The manufacturer is therefore not charging any extra for the advanced LFP batteries and up to 525 kW charging power.
