Video Summary

After driving the new G9, here is what was determined:

The new 2025 version is coming to right-hand and left-hand drive markets worldwide. It has massage seats, a chill function, and adjustable air suspension. The 800-volt architecture allows charging the battery in 12 minutes, up to 500-kilowatt charging speed. The G9 has a serious luxury feel, with a big glass panoramic roof to open up the car. It’s much larger than the Mona, and it includes dual 15-inch screens and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster. The car’s self-driving system is Turing AI intelligent driving, removing the need for LIDAR.

Increases were noted in power, torque and efficiency. It incorporates 11 cameras, 3-millimeter wave radars, and 12 ultrasonic radars. Recognition speed is faster by 40%, and it can better identify moving and stationary objects. There is a rear lift gate, too.

Three interior colors are available: Moon Shadow Coffee, Elegant Gray, and Morning Glory Brown.

It may feel less tied down in the steering and suspension than the G6, Mona, or P7.
There is a standard range with a 79-kilowatt hour NMC battery, and long range at 93.1-kilowatt.

The base model reaches 625km.  The long-range all-wheel drive reach 680 km, and long range rear wheel drive hits 725 km, all using CLTC standards.
The starting price is around $85,000 AUD. Also, the 3 models come with 20-inch wheels. Finally, reviewers note that temperature is better with all roofs having a solar reflective coating.

Rear suspension has a lowering ability from buttons in the truck, which can assist with loading.  Air suspension lowers the car in general too.

The rear wheel drive has 258 kilowatts or 350 horsepower, up from 230 kilowatts, and has more torque. All-wheel drive hits 423 kilowatts and 700-newton meters of torque.
