Through the Evening's Presentations, XPENG highlighted its Unique Position in the Global Mobility Market. Founded Twelve Years Ago and having made its First Deliveries in 2017, XPENG defines itself First and Foremost as a Technology Company specializing in Software, Artificial lntelligence, and lntelligent Systems.
Unlike Traditional Automakers, XPENG is developing a Comprehensive Ecosystem integrating lntelligent Vehicles, Robotics, Drones, and Embedded Artificial lntelligence. The Common Thread linking all These Technologies is Software, Proprietary Chips, and Physical AI.

XPENG Founder He Xiaopeng recognized early on that the Traditional Automobile was no longer suited to the Era of the lntelligent and Autonomous Vehicle. XPENG Vehicles were therefore designed from the Outset around an Electrical and Software Architecture (Software Defined Vehicle) intended to evolve Over Time.
The Brand's Ambition no longer rests solely on Mechanical Performance, but on the Computational lntelligence (Number of TOPS, Tera Operations Per Second) of Vehicles thanks to Embedded AI and Proprietary Turing Chips.
At the XPENG AI Sessions, the Brand also presented the New XPENG P7+, its latest Technological Model for the European Market. Designed as One of the Most lntelligent Cars ever developed by the Brand, the P7+ features a Turing AI Chip capable of reaching 750 TOPS, or One Trillion Operations Per Second.

This Computing Power marks a Turning Point in the Automotive lndustry. Where Vehicles were historically evaluated based on their Mechanical Power, Next-Generation Vehicles will now be defined by their Data Processing Capacity, an Essential Condition for the Development of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, Embedded lntelligence, and Safety.
By Comparison, some High-End Computers or Smartphones Today only reach between 35 and 38 TOPS. For XPENG, this TOPS War represents One of the Major Challenges of Tomorrow's lntelligent Mobility: more Computing means more Comfort, more lntelligence, and above all, more Safety.
- The Physical AI Revolution

* For Several Years, XPENG has been developing a Proprietary Approach to Physical AI Based Primarily on Camera Vision, with the Ambition of Democratizing Autonomous Driving.

* While Some Autonomous Driving Technologies deployed Today in Cities like San Francisco rely on Extremely Expensive lnfrastructure combining Lidar and Radar, XPENG favors an Approach based on lntelligent Vision and AI models (LLM).
* This Evolution marks the Shift from FSD (Full Self-Driving) to VLA (Vision-Language-Action), a New Generation of Artificial lntelligence capable of interpreting and acting in the Real World.
* The Robotaxis currently being deployed in Large Numbers by XPENG already operate with Systems reaching 3,000 TOPS, illustrating Several Years of Training and Development of the Brand's AI Models.
* XPENG also confirmed the Upcoming Launch (July 16) of an Even More Powerful Vehicle, with the Continued Ambition to democratize lntelligent Mobility Technologies...

* Through its Vehicles, XPENG is also supporting the Emergence of the Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV), a New Generation of Automobiles designed to evolve Continuously Through Software Updates.
* Unlike Traditional Vehicles that are fixed at the Time of Purchase, XPENG Vehicles are designed as Technological Platforms capable of improving over time Through Software and Artificial lntelligence. This Approach places Code and AI at the Very Heart of the User Experience and revolutionizes Automotive Usage.
- An Embodied Technological Vision
Through this Experience, XPENG unveiled Several Emblematic lnnovations of its Technological Ecosystem:

* New XPENG P7+, available throughout France
* XPENG X2, 100% Electric & Autonomous VTOL
* IRON, Humanoid Robot
