Shanghai (Gasgoo)- On October 20, XPENG officially moved into its new headquarters in Guangzhou's Tianhe Smart City. Company founder He Xiaopeng marked the occasion on his Weibo account, writing that "entrepreneurship often begins with a move, and each relocation marks a symbolic leap forward."

Located on the eastern side of Keyun Road in Tianhe Smart City's Cencun area, the new XPENG campus spans more than 500,000 square meters, with a total floor area of about 364,500 square meters. The project's land acquisition cost was approximately 1.507 billion yuan, translating to a floor price of roughly 9,300 yuan per square meter. Inspired by the brand's signature "X" motif, the building's sweeping glass façade gives the complex a strikingly futuristic presence that mirrors XPENG's identity as a forward-looking mobility innovator.

Beyond its core headquarters functions—office, R&D, and exhibition facilities—the campus also integrates key automotive operations such as vehicle engineering, design review, and new model testing. Reflecting XPENG's technological ambitions, the site even includes a dedicated takeoff and landing pad for its flying car division and an independent flagship retail store.

The new campus functions almost like a "mini city," complete with an 80,000-square-meter park and a 20,000-square-meter mega canteen offering 5,000 seats and more than 400 dining options. Additional amenities include cafés, supermarkets, a community medical center, as well as barbershops and gyms—creating an all-in-one ecosystem for employees' work and daily life.

In addition to the Guangzhou base, XPENG plans to expand and upgrade all of its offices nationwide, covering key cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Wuhan.

The relocation comes as XPENG accelerates on a strong growth trajectory. In September 2025, the company delivered 41,581 smart EVs—up 95% year-on-year and 10% month-on-month—surpassing the symbolic 40,000-unit monthly threshold. For the third quarter, deliveries totaled 116,007 vehicles, a 149% year-on-year surge. Cumulatively, XPENG delivered 313,196 units in the first nine months of 2025, representing a 218% surge from the same period last year.
