It\u2019s been less than six months since XPeng alerted the public to plans for affordable, AI-centric BEVs from MONA, which was <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2024\/04\/25\/xpeng-2k-pure-visual-adas-neural-network-fast-charging-ai-ev-sub-brand-beijing\/\">initially described as a sub-brand<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese automaker has since begun describing MONA as a new lineup of XPeng-branded vehicles, starting with the M03 sedan. The next-generation MONA 03 EV <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2024\/07\/03\/xpeng-debuts-ai-centric-m03-sedan-new-mona-ev-lineup-priced-below-27500\/\">officially debuted<\/a> in early July, promising a starting price below RMB 200,000 ($27,500).<\/p>\n<p>Over the weekend, XPeng founder, chairman, and CEO He Xiaopeng shared that the new model had <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2024\/08\/09\/xpeng-kicks-off-mass-production-mona-m03-ahead-of-official-launch\/\">begun mass production in China<\/a> before an official launch in August. Today, Chinese media has pointed out a new product poster from XPeng that revealed the MONA M03 will start at a price significantly lower than initially promised.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?quality=82&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"XPeng MONA price\" class=\"wp-image-375790\" srcset=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?resize=150,75 150w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?resize=300,150 300w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?resize=768,384 768w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?resize=1024,512 1024w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?resize=350,175 350w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?resize=140,70 140w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/08\/XPeng-MONA-price-post.jpg?resize=290,145 290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: XPeng Motors<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-xpeng-shares-mona-m03-starting-price-and-launch-date\">XPeng shares MONA M03 starting price and launch date<\/h2>\n<p>As pointed out by <em>CnEVPost<\/em> and other Chinese media outlets, a new MONA M03 product poster revealed it is expected to launch at a starting price of <a href=\"https:\/\/cnevpost.com\/2024\/08\/14\/xpeng-mona-m03-start-no-more-than-usd-19030\/?utm_source=convertkit&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=CnEVPost%20Newsletter%3A%20Nio%20Onvo%20L60%20interior%20image%3B%20Audi%27s%20rumored%20partnership%20with%20Huawei%20-%2014708495\">RMB 135,900 ($19,040)<\/a>.
