The passenger compartment of the P7 remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. XPENG showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions.  Protection of all critical body areas was good for the front passenger but the driver’s chest protection was rated as marginal, based on dummy readings of compression.  Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the P7 would be a benign impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full-width rigid barrier test, chest protection was again rated as marginal for the driver, based on dummy readings of compression.  Otherwise, protection of both dummies was good in this test. In the side barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good or adequate and, in the side pole impact, the P7 scored full points with good protection of all critical boday areas.  Control of excursion (the extent to which a body is thrown to the other side of the vehicle when it is hit from the far side) was marginal. The P7 has a counter-measure to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts and this performed well in Euro NCAP's test. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.  A geometric analysis of the rear seats also indicated good whiplash protection.   The P7 has an advanced eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash.   The car also has a system which applies the brakes after an impact, to avoid secondary collisions.  XPENG demonstrated that if the car entered water, the doors, if locked, could be opened within two minutes of power being lost but did not demonstrate the duration for which windows would remain functional.

In both the frontal offset and side barrier tests, good protection was provided to all critical body areas for both child dummies, and the XPENG P7 scored maximum points in this part of the assessment.  The front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position.  Clear information is provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded.  The P7 is not equipped with a 'child presence detection' system.  All of the child restraint types for which the P7 is designed could be properly installed and accommodated in the car.

Protection of the head of a struck pedestrian or cyclist was predominantly good or adequate with poor results recorded only on the stiff windscreen pillars.  Protection of the pelvis, femur, knee and tibia was at good at all test locations and the P7 scored maximum points in this part of the assessment.  The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the XPENG P7 can respond to vulnerable road users as well as to other vehicles.  The system performed well in tests of its response to pedestrians and cyclists.  Likewise, the AEB system performed well in all tests of its response to motorcyclists and scored full points.

The autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system of the XPENG P7 performed well in tests of its reaction to other vehicles, although it did not score points in the head-on scenarios.  A seatbelt reminder system is fitted as standard to the front and rear seats and the car is equipped with a system to detect driver fatigue, such as drowsiness and long distraction, where the driver is not focussed on the driving task.  The system does not recognise short distraction or phone use.  The lane support system gently corrects the vehicle’s path if it is drifting out of lane and also intervenes in some more critical situations.  The speed assistance system identifies the local speed limit, and the driver can choose to allow the limiter to be set automatically by the system.
