XPeng showcases its lineup of Smart EVs at Auto China 2024

As AI large models rapidly develop and proliferate, Smart EVs are becoming the vanguard of AI technology application. The automotive industry is at a new turning point, moving from “software-defined cars” to “AI-defined cars.” As a pioneer in driving the future mobility, Xpeng leverages end-to-end large models extensively for its XNGP ADAS and will implement upgrades to its perception large models and planning/control large models in its vehicles.

Specifically, Xpeng will deploy the industry’s first mass-produced 2K pure visual neural network large model in vehicles, using over two million high-definition grids to reconstruct the world and clearly identify every detail of both dynamic and static obstacles. Furthermore, Xpeng is the first in the industry to introduce a neural network-based planning/control large model, XPlanner, to enable more human-like learning, thinking and actions.

At Auto China 2024, XPeng presented various AI-powered innovations featured in X9, including its latest XOS 5.1.0, or Tianji OS, the industry’s first OS to comprehensively integrate AI technology into smart cockpit and smart driving, to be rolled out to all eligible users on May 20, 2024.

Xpeng is dedicated to creating the most intuitive AI in-car operating system (OS), ensuring a safer and more comfortable driving experience, regardless of AI driving or human driving. Xpeng has upgraded SR (surround reality) perception capabilities, extending the range to 1.8 standard soccer fields and accurately identifying over 50 objects in surrounding areas.

Xpeng also plans to roll out AI Valet Driver, after significant enhancement in visual perception and control capabilities driven by AI technology. With powerful self-learning capabilities, the AI Valet Driving can be activated regardless of the availability of XNGP, and precisely memorizes driving routes during manual operation, offering customized driving experiences with up to 10 routes of 100km each while ensuring excellent driving support nationwide.

Autonomous driving technologies are playing a pivotal role in shaping the advancement of the auto industry. Xpeng’s decade-long commitment has positioned it as a leader in China’s smart driving ecosystem. Xpeng has been actively working towards making its smart driving technology accessible and efficient both nationwide and worldwide, with the completion of Highway NGP testing in Germany, showcasing its solid progress and exceptional capabilities in its global roadmap.

Xpeng also announced its near-term plans including the comprehensive upgrade to its 800kW ultra-fast charging facilities in Q3 2024 that will make Xpeng Smart EVs to achieve industry-leading charging speed of adding more than 1 km per second, optimizing charging efficiency for Xpeng owners and further mitigating range anxiety.

In deepening industry collaboration, Xpeng has signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement on the EEA (Electronic and Electrical Architecture) with Volkswagen Group, jointly defining the future potential of automotive intelligence.

Additionally, Xpeng is set to introduce a new brand, MONA (Made of New AI), in June, which symbolizes an innovative new breed, aiming to popularize AI-driven Smart EVs globally.
