How about XPeng's production qualifications?
2 Answers
XPeng Motors has already obtained the production qualification for new energy vehicles. XPeng Motors production scale: The planned total area of XPeng Motors Intelligent Connected Vehicle Industrial Park reaches 3000 mu, of which the vehicle production project covers 1500 mu. In the first phase, 903.62 mu of land has been acquired, with a gross floor area of approximately 460,000 square meters. The factory area is equipped with five major workshops: stamping, welding, painting, assembly, and Pack, featuring 4 different flexible assembly production lines and 1 flexible battery assembly line, totaling 264 intelligent industrial robots. Advanced technology usage: Throughout the entire process from planning to completion of XPeng's Zhaoqing factory, the five major process workshops—stamping, welding, painting, assembly, and PACK—have all utilized IoT technology and monitoring technology on the basis of a digital factory to achieve visualization of production information, equipment information, process information, and quality information, realizing transparency in the manufacturing process.
As an automotive technology enthusiast, I have a favorable view of XPeng's production qualifications. XPeng Motors obtained the national new energy vehicle production license as early as 2017, which means they have their own independent factories, such as the large-scale base in Zhaoqing, Guangdong. The facility is quite sizable, featuring fully automated production lines capable of producing over 100,000 electric vehicles annually. This qualification ensures that all vehicles meet national standards, passing rigorous reviews for safety tests and environmental requirements, thereby avoiding quality issues. I also noticed that XPeng's qualifications include battery pack production and autonomous driving system R&D, enabling them to launch intelligent vehicles like the P7 and G9, showcasing strong innovation capabilities. That said, qualifications are just the entry threshold—what matters is long-term maintenance. XPeng has also invested in expanding new factories, which will further increase production capacity in the future. Overall, as a leading Chinese new energy brand, XPeng's production system is robust, supporting their competitiveness in the international market.
