XPeng registered 4,190 vehicles between June 2 and 8, according to data shared on Chinese social media this Tuesday.
Registration figures plunged 43.6% from the 7,300 units recorded in the last week of May, which was the best sales week in the second quarter.
Registrations in the first week of June were the weakest since mid-February, when Chinese New Year factory shutdowns and holiday travel typically curb production and deliveries across the country.
After unveiling a new trim of its Mona M03 best-seller in its domestic market, XPeng is globally launching its G7 SUV on June 11.
Founder and CEO He Xiaopeng stated on the latest earnings call that the model “is expected to become a highly competitive product in the 250,000 yuan ($34,700) SUV segment.”
In a Weibo post on Monday, the chief executive stated that the model is a “car for the future” and “the first AI car with L3 computing power.”
The G7 will have two variants, with the long-range one offering a range of up to 702 km (CLTC).
On Monday, images of the model’s interior surfaced on Chinese social media, showing more on Huawei‘s heads-up display (HUD) system, which will be implemented for the first time in XPeng‘s G7.
XPeng recently added 28 new self-operated charging stations — including 25 ultra-fast chargers and one standard supercharger. The company now operates over 2,260 charging stations across 420 cities in China.
May Deliveries
The Guangzhou-based brand delivered 33,525 vehicles in May globally, up 230% from a year earlier and its seventh consecutive month above the 30,000-th threshold.
In Europe, the Chinese automaker sold approximately 1,438 electric vehicles across ten European markets in May, a fourfold increase driven by the brand’s expansion into multiple new markets.
Last month, XPeng revealed it is entering Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia through a new distribution agreement with Modus Group, and Hungary, Slovenia and Croatia through AutoWallis.
The company projected second-quarter deliveries to stay between 102,000 and 108,000 units. Based on April and May results, the company is targeting between 33,430 and 39,430 units for June.
