In this version, highway and urban intelligent driving scenarios will be connected, bringing car owners a more complete high-level intelligent driving experience. At the same time, He Xiaopeng also proposed at the meeting that the turning point of autonomous driving comes from the arrival of large models, and by using end-to-end, it can surpass the ultimate goal of most veteran drivers.

In addition, He Xiaopeng also "blasted the weekly sales list" at the press conference, becoming the third car company boss after Lei Jun and Li Bin to publicly diss the weekly sales list.

It is worth mentioning that He Xiaopeng also mentioned at the press conference that the next version of Xiaopeng's intelligent driving system is already in testing and is expected to bring more outstanding performance. So far, Xiaopeng has also submitted an end-to-end intelligent driving answer sheet after Huawei and Ideal.

1. He Xiaopeng said that Xpeng Intelligent Driving will have big moves in 2025

At the press conference, He Xiaopeng, founder of Xpeng Motors, proposed four new directions regarding the disruptive power of artificial intelligence (AI). He Xiaopeng believes that AI technology will promote the development of four major trends: chips, large models, driverless cars, and robots.

He pointed out that starting from 2025, AI will completely replace traditional algorithms at the software level. In this context, He Xiaopeng revealed the latest progress of Xpeng Motors in technology R&D investment and computing power reserves.

It is reported that Xiaopeng Motors has invested more than 3.5 billion yuan in AI training, and its computing power reserves have reached the industry-leading 2.51EFLOPS.

In the field of autonomous driving, Xpeng Motors has achieved remarkable development speed. It took only 6 years for Xpeng Motors to go from mass production to high-speed driving, and then another 42 months to achieve nationwide autonomous driving.

He Xiaopeng also proposed the goal of achieving door-to-door autonomous driving within 4 months.


▲Xpeng Motors' rapid iteration of autonomous driving

Since its first end-to-end implementation on May 20, Xiaopeng Motors announced a comprehensive upgrade of XNGP, from "can be driven throughout the country" to "easy to use throughout the country", and proposed a higher goal of "easy to use globally".

At present, Xiaopeng Motors has achieved autonomous driving regardless of cities, routes, or road conditions, covering all cities and all public roads across the country, including complex road conditions such as U-turns, roundabouts, and narrow roads.

With the support of end-to-end technology, XNGP has stronger learning ability and can handle more complex road conditions. He Xiaopeng said that with the increase of data learning, XNGP's capabilities will continue to improve, and intelligent driving technologies that do not use large models will gradually be eliminated.

With this version update, Xpeng Motors has officially entered the end-to-end large model era.

In response to the question of why the "all-country driving" feature has only been fully launched now, He Xiaopeng said that this is due to a lot of real-car verification behind it. Xiaopeng Motors has traveled to 2,595 cities across the country and has undergone 7.56 million kilometers of real-car testing to ensure that unverified technology will not be left to users for trial and error.

In addition, He Xiaopeng also put forward higher requirements for Xiaopeng Motors' intelligent driving.

In the fourth quarter of this year, Xiaopeng Motors plans to connect ETC, parking lot gates and internal roads to achieve a door-to-door experience.

By the end of 2025, Xpeng Motors will further achieve the transformation from "easy to use to love to use", pursuing higher safety, efficiency and smooth experience. He Xiaopeng mentioned that in the version at the end of 2025, XNPG can further achieve early response to potential risks, AI driving is more efficient than the human driver, and acceleration, deceleration, lane change and overtaking are smooth.

In addition, He Xiaopeng also used different smart driving products to describe this version. It is not difficult to see that this may also be one of Xiaopeng’s goals for Robotaxi in 2026.

2. XOS5.2.0 full push focuses on introducing 9 major features

At the press conference, it was also announced that Xpeng AI Dimensity XOS5.2.0 will be fully pushed globally, with a total of 72 new features and 412 optimized features. It will be officially pushed in China on July 30 and in 10 countries including Germany, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, the Netherlands, and France on August 15.

The press conference focused on introducing the nine major functional updates of Xiaopeng AI Dimensity XOS5.2.0 in terms of intelligent driving, ecological interconnection and smart cockpit, including XNGP "easy to use across the country", 100-meter tracking reversing, parking 2.0, remote voice control, gesture control, NFC control, new instruments, new driving mode and all-round screen projection.

Xiaopeng said that the XNGP upgrade will bring a new generation of intelligent driving experience. The upgraded XNGP can be used across the country. Wherever there is navigation, AI intelligent driving can be used, and it can better cover complex road conditions.

At the same time, this update adds a tracking reverse function. If you encounter a situation where you take the wrong road and enter a small road that is difficult to turn around, you can use one button to let the car automatically reverse 100 meters along the original route, making it easier for users to get out of trouble.

In terms of connectivity, Xiaopeng said that this upgrade has opened up the Apple ecosystem, and SIRI can be used to directly control the car. The car can be put into car wash mode, extreme cooling, sentinel mode, etc. by speaking a word to the phone.

At the same time, this update also adds the NFC tag one-touch car control function. You can use your mobile phone and an NFC tag with preset functions to "stick" it to solve functions such as opening the door, opening the charging port, turning on the sentry mode, and turning on extreme cooling.

3. MONA M03 will be able to charge 1 kilometer in 1 second at the S5 supercharging station in the store

At the press conference, He Xiaopeng also revealed some of Xiaopeng's recent actions.

He Xiaopeng announced that the first batch of MONA M03 exhibition cars will arrive at stores in 100 cities across the country starting from August 1. He Xiaopeng said that compared with all the cars under 200,000 yuan he has driven, MONA M03 is overwhelming, and the performance and dynamic experience is very good.

At the same time, He Xiaopeng said that the layout of Xiaopeng's charging network is accelerating. At present, there are 1,600 self-operated stations, 1,300 self-operated stations in operation, and 1,000 supercharging stations. By 2026, Xiaopeng will build 10,000 self-operated charging stations and 4,500 liquid-cooled super-fast charging stations. The new Xiaopeng S5 super-fast charging station will be able to charge more than 1 kilometer in 1 second.
