GUANGZHOU, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--XPeng Inc. (“XPeng” or the “Company”, NYSE: XPEV), a leading Chinese smart electric vehicle (“Smart EV”) company, today announced its vehicle delivery results for March and the first quarter 2021.
Xpeng delivered a total of 5,102 Smart EVs in March 2021, consisting of 2,855 P7s, the Company’s sports smart sedan, and 2,247 G3s, its smart compact SUV. The Company’s March deliveries represent a 384% increase year-over-year and a 130% increase from the previous month.
