Xpeng in Norway

Xpeng P7 gains popularity in China
The Xpeng P7 is starting to become a popular midsize sedan in China, and that’s not specifically in the EV category. He Xiaopeng, Chairman & CEO, Xpeng Motors, thinks that his car will outsell the long-established Audi A4 L, as per a report from CnEVPost. An Audi A4 e-tron electric sedan is on the product roadmap, but it’s a few years away.
On 23 August 2021, one day before it exported the first batch of the P7 to Norway, Xpeng Motors rolled out the 50,000th P7 off the production line in Zhaoqing (Guangdong), China. The company achieved the milestone 496 days after rolling out the first P7 in April 2020.
Xpeng Motors started selling the P7 in June 2020. The company sold 39,227 P7s between January and September 2021. In September 2021 alone, it delivered 7,512 units of the P7.
