This year marks the tenth anniversary of XPENG and a significant year in its global expansion. Following its successful entry into Western Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Oceania, XPENG has now expanded its dealer network in Egypt and Africa, further enlarging its international presence. XPENG Chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng stated publicly, "This year, we aim to expand XPENG's export reach from the initial three countries to over twenty countries."

In the first quarter of 2024 alone, XPENG's cumulative export sales reached 61.8% of the total export volume for the entire year of 2023.

XPENG said it is the industry's first in-car OS to comprehensively apply AI technology to both smart cockpits and smart driving. In the third quarter of this year, the AI Tianji system will receive a major upgrade and will be launched overseas.

Additionally, XPENG's self-developed AI large model has already gone into mass production. Over the next 18 months, XPENG's smart driving capabilities in China are expected to be improved by 30 times. The company also revealed that the XNGP (XPENG Navigation Guided Pilot) ADAS feature, which has been successfully implemented in China, is currently undergoing global testing and validation.
