Localization

XPeng is accelerating its global expansion by establishing localized supply chain teams in Europe and ASEAN by 2026. This “In Local, For Local” strategy aims to create integrated operational ecosystems, enhance efficiency, and reduce costs. Following localized production in 2025, these new units will manage regional suppliers. XPeng anticipates half of its sales will be international within a decade, driven by AI integration and advanced manufacturing, even exploring robotics and flying vehicles with existing partners.

Mobileye is partnering with VVDN Technologies to localize ADAS technology in India. The collaboration aims to support the “Made-in-India” initiative and integrate safety features into vehicles for the Indian market. VVDN’s local engineering and manufacturing capabilities will adapt Mobileye’s EyeQ chips and sensor technologies for Indian driving conditions. The move will reduce costs, improve supply chain resilience, and tailor products to the specific requirements of the Indian market, further enabling Mobileye’s growth in the region.
