Xpeng may be one of the more prolific Chinese car EV startups. It roared onto the scene in 2019 with a Tesla Model S-sized electric car that was priced closer to the Tesla Model 3 called the XPeng P7. And like Tesla, the Xpeng P7 boasted a suite of semi-autonomous driving capabilities analogous to Autopilot or Full Self-Driving, called XNGP. For 2024, it looks like Xpeng is finally giving the P7 a much-needed update in the form of a new model—and it's running another Tesla playbook too.
