Xpeng Motors

Xpeng Motors showcased its “AI Changing the World” vision at the Chengdu Motor Show, presenting vehicles like the revamped P7, G7, X9, MONA M03, and the IRON humanoid robot. The exhibit highlighted Xpeng’s AI technologies, including its Turing AI system, custom chip, and fast charging solutions. First deliveries of the updated P7 coincided with the show. Driven by strong financial results and record deliveries, Xpeng is expanding its technology partnership with Volkswagen and accelerating its global presence, aiming to become a leading global AI automotive company.

Xpeng Motors CEO He Xiaopeng believes China and the US are leading the autonomous driving race. While currently at a similar Level 2-4, China’s faster momentum in technology, market acceptance, and regulation could allow it to surpass the US, particularly in L2 and L3 applications. He Xiaopeng’s comments follow Tesla’s demonstration of a “fully autonomous delivery” using a Model Y, which Elon Musk hailed as “true self-driving,” showcasing Level 4 capabilities.
