Upon delivery, the P5 will be the world’s first mass-produced Smart EV equipped with auto-grade LiDAR technology.”

Xpeng global
Xpeng Motors said it’s going to raise $1.8 billion with listing in Hong Kong. The money is to be investing in smart car technologies like autonomous driving software. Expanding their portfolio by working on technologies related to smart cars.
Besides their entry into global sales, they have already planned to have two more manufacturing plants in China. In China, the car is to compete with Tesla and Nio. However, the company is far from beating its competition. Nio and Li Auto have been beating their own records where Li Auto increased its own sales by 2,000 in Q2 than Q1. At the same time, other carmakers have more than one model on sale. Li Auto is relying on one model for now.
Xpeng stated, “P7 deliveries continued record-breaking growth in June, reflecting the P7’s rising popularity among China’s tech-savvy consumers. Since mid-2020, 34,588 P7s have been delivered. The P7’s Navigation Guided Pilot (NGP) highway solutions are attracting wide customer appeal, reinforcing the Company’s commitment to technology innovation.”
