The company reported that its international growth increased by 81% in the second quarter, with over 20,000 units delivered outside of China.

Beyond the G9L, XPeng is showcasing advanced technologies including NGP driving assistance, the IRON humanoid robot, and concepts related to flying cars. The company is promoting a “Physical AI” approach, described through the concept of “Car-as-a-Robot,” which integrates artificial intelligence with physical systems to allow vehicles to interact more effectively with their environment.
