Xpeng Motors is China’s leading smart electric vehicle company, designing, developing, manufacturing and selling smart electric vehicles to appeal to a large and growing number of tech-savvy middle-class consumers. Its mission is to use technology and data to explore and drive the transformation of smart electric vehicles to shape the mobility experience of the future. In order to optimize customer travel experience, Xiaopeng independently develops full-stack autonomous driving technology and in-vehicle intelligent operating system, as well as core vehicle systems such as powertrain and electrification/electronic architecture. Xpeng is headquartered in Guangzhou, China, with major offices in Beijing, Shanghai, Silicon Valley, San Diego and Amsterdam. The company’s smart electric vehicles are produced at its factory in Zhaoqing, Guangdong province.

Xiaopeng uses a combination of lidar, radar and cameras to assist driving. Lidar systems use lasers to create 3D space by measuring the distance between objects and the time it takes for light to bounce back. Xinzhou Wu stated: “Lidar will provide 3D drivable space and accurate depth estimation for small moving obstacles, even children and pets, obviously other pedestrians and motorcycles for anyone who does a driving job.

Radar will provide the vehicle with the ability to detect the speed and position of objects. The cameras will provide the vehicle with basic semantic information, as Xinzhou Wu said.

Over the past few years, the price of lidar has dropped significantly, and drone companies such as DJI have announced the integration of their aerial survey technology. Zenmuse L1 – Lidar + RGB camera starts at $13,100. [27] Xiaopeng’s lidar system is provided by Livox. The falling price of lidar and the increase in innovation and development have enabled consumers to enjoy lower costs. “Our next car is for economy class. I would say it’s mid-range in terms of price.

XPeng has moved away from CTP batteries to LFP batteries, which negates the need for cobalt in a battery, one of the most expensive materials in a battery. However LFP batteries do reduce the range of the vehicle. “Xpeng announces they were launching new versions of the P7 saloon and G3 Sports Utility Vehicle with LFP batteries. The new versions with lithium iron phosphate cells will be available for the rear-wheel-drive P7 sports saloon first.
