Taking the Xpeng G6 to the Alps winter road trip ownership review

In this episode of the Xpeng G6 Ownership Series, Peter takes his personal Xpeng G6 AWD Performance on a real family winter road trip from the Netherlands to the Swiss Alps.

Preparation begins before leaving home. After washing the vehicle, Peter loads the front trunk with essential winter equipment including windshield washer fluid, gloves, microfiber towels, and a windshield cover to prevent ice from forming overnight.

Electric cars have a tire problem nobody talks about

Electric cars may feel smooth and futuristic, but they hide a costly problem many owners discover too late. The combination of heavy batteries, instant torque, and aggressive regenerative braking constantly stresses the tires in ways traditional cars never do. Even when cruising on the highway, EV tires are rarely just “free rolling” like those on gasoline vehicles. Over time, that constant load can wear them out far faster than most drivers expect. For many EV owners, the result is a surprising reality - replacing tires far more often than they ever planned.
