XPENG reported its strongest quarterly performance to date on November 17, with third-quarter (Q3) results marking new highs across multiple financial and operational indicators.

Shanghai (Gasgoo)- XPENG reported its strongest quarterly performance to date on November 17, with third-quarter (Q3) results marking new highs across multiple financial and operational indicators. Deliveries reached 116,007 vehicles, soaring 149.3% from the previous year and 12.4% from the previous quarter, extending a three-quarter streak of rapid expansion. Revenue grew to 20.38 billion yuan, up 101.8% year-on-year and 11.5% higher than the second quarter, beating market expectations.

Profitability also strengthened meaningfully. XPENG's gross margin rose to 20.1%, its first time above the 20% threshold and 4.8 percentage points higher than a year ago. Automotive gross margin improved to 13.1%, while net losses narrowed sharply to 380 million yuan—down 78.9% year-on-year—as tighter cost controls and improved operating efficiency took hold. By the end of September, the company's cash, equivalents and short-term investments had increased to a record 48.33 billion yuan. XPENG continued expanding its charging footprint as well, operating 2,676 self-built charging stations nationwide, more than 60% of which support ultra-fast charging.

Chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng said the company is in a phase of rapid volume and share expansion, and will deepen investment in "physical AI" technologies as well as global market development. Vice Chairman Brian Gu added that margin gains were driven by growing technology-related revenue and disciplined cost management, giving the company more room to reinvest in innovation.

On the product front, the all-new XPENG P7 ramped up quickly after launch, with September deliveries surpassing 40,000 units and contributing to a more balanced product mix. Overseas momentum accelerated as the brand entered new European markets, including Switzerland and Austria, during the quarter. XPENG delivered 29,706 vehicles outside China in the first nine months of the year, up 125% from a year earlier.

Looking ahead, XPENG expects fourth-quarter deliveries to reach between 125,000 and 132,000 units, with projected revenue of 21.5 billion yuan to 23 billion yuan—representing annual growth of 33.5% to 42.8%.

[Two Mandatory EV National Standards Take Effect Tomorrow: Batteries Must Not Catch Fire or Explode]

On July 1, two mandatory national standards—"Safety Requirements for Traction Batteries of Electric Vehicles" (GB 38031-2025) and "Safety Requirements for Electric Vehicles" (GB 18384-2025)—will officially come into force. This marks the first time in China's new energy vehicle sector that both battery‑specific and vehicle‑level core safety standards take effect on the same day. The new battery standard establishes "no fire, no explosion" as a mandatory requirement, replacing the previous technical threshold of "providing an alarm signal 5 minutes before fire or explosion." The updated standard also adds tests including bottom impact testing and safety testing after fast‑charging cycles. The vehicle standard requires the installation of an independent physical one‑button emergency power‑off device. The two standards will be implemented in phases: all newly applied vehicle models submitted after July 1 must fully comply with the new rules, while models already approved and on sale are granted a one‑year transition period until full compliance is required by July 2027. Industry players across the supply chain have already entered the final stages of certification review and production‑line retrofitting.
