Xpeng

The G6 delivered 8,132 units in September, contributing 53.12 percent of Xpeng's monthly deliveries.

The vehicles -- the Xpeng G9 and P7 -- will officially enter the Israeli market in October through one of the country's largest dealerships, Freesbe.

The Xpeng P5 was the world's first production car to feature LiDAR when it went on sale on September 15, 2021, and now it's eliminating the component.

The 2024 G9 received more than 8,000 firm orders within 72 hours of launch, and deliveries began on September 21, Xpeng said.

The new G9 features the core capabilities of Xpeng's latest SEPA architecture and has a starting price that is RMB 46,000 lower than the old model.

Xpeng will hold a launch event for the new G9 on September 19 in Dunhuang, Gansu province in northwest China, where its CEO will explain how the model will be back on the offensive.

Xpeng plans to add 500 integrated stores with sales and service functions, 1,000 experience centers and satellite stores over the next three years, according to local media.

The Xpeng X9 will be available in single-motor and dual-motor versions and will use LFP cells from Eve Energy as well as Li-ion ternary cells from CALB.

Downsizing the number of directly operated stores is becoming a new industry trend, with both Xpeng and Zeekr increasing the proportion of dealer stores, according to local media.

The G6 contributed 51.63 percent of Xpeng's deliveries in August, while the P7 contributed 30.98 percent.
