Newmarket Motors is driving into a new era with the arrival of XPENG, an innovative electric vehicle brand that’s already making a strong impression across Europe — and now making its mark in Ireland.
As the first XPENG dealer outside Dublin, Newmarket Motors takes pride in introducing the brand’s flagship model, the G6 Coupé SUV, to local drivers. Fully electric, sleekly designed, and packed with smart technology, the G6 is a bold new option for those looking to embrace the future of driving.
The XPENG G6 isn’t just turning heads — it’s making history. Officially shortlisted for Irish Car of the Year 2026, in association with Continental Tyres, the G6’s nomination marks a significant milestone for electric vehicles in Ireland. For the first time, most eligible contenders are electric-powered, underscoring the country’s accelerating transition toward sustainable mobility. Among this competitive field, the G6 stands out for its innovation, performance, and design — qualities Irish motorists are increasingly seeking. Voted on by the Motoring Media Association of Ireland, the awards highlight the standout models released annually, and Newmarket Motors is delighted to see the G6 recognised among the most notable launches of the year.
To celebrate the arrival of XPENG and the G6’s nomination, Newmarket Motors will host a special Electric Vehicles Information Night on Thursday, November 27th. The event will offer visitors a chance to explore electric cars up close and learn more about the technology. Team members from Nevo.ie — Ireland’s only dedicated electric vehicle platform — will also be on hand, offering expert advice and insights to help both new and experienced drivers make a smooth transition to electric motoring. The evening promises a closer look at the innovations behind modern cars — and what they mean for Irish drivers.
XPENG joins a trusted lineup at Newmarket Motors, which includes Volkswagen passenger and commercial vehicles. The dealership has also recently expanded its offering with the addition of Mercedes-Benz vans, including the Sprinter, Vito, and Citan — further strengthening its support for local businesses and commercial customers.
Dealer Principal Annette Browne said the new additions reflect the dealership’s commitment to progress: “We’re proud to represent brands that bring something new to the table. XPENG is a bold step forward, and we’re excited to share it with our customers.”
With decades of award-winning service and a clear focus on innovation, Newmarket Motors continues to grow — offering forward-thinking solutions, and new reasons to visit.
