The Chinese manufacturer has unveiled some impressive sales figures.
XPeng has just published its vehicle sales report for September, marking the end of the third quarter of 2025. These figures confirm a trend that began a year ago: the brand is on the rise, gradually establishing itself as one of the major players in global electromobility. According to official figures released by the company, XPeng’s performance is well ahead of that seen in 2024.
In September 2025, the manufacturer delivered no fewer than 41,581 vehicles, a drastic increase of almost 95% on the 21,052 units delivered in September 2024. Over the third quarter of 2025 as a whole, the volume of vehicles delivered reached 116,007 units, an increase of 149% compared with the 46,176 vehicles sold in the third quarter of last year. With these figures, combined with the good mid-year results, XPeng has more than 313,000 deliveries in the first nine months of 2025, more than triple the 98,000 units delivered from January to September 2024.
Diversified geographical expansion
While China remains XPeng’s biggest market, the dynamic is also changing internationally. From January to August 2025, the company delivered 24,702 vehicles outside China, representing growth of more than 137% compared with the same period in 2024. These figures can be explained in part by the development of international sales outlets: 275 sales outlets in 46 different countries, compared with around 150 in 2024.
Geographically, Europe remains XPeng’s biggest buyer, followed by the Middle East and Asia. Latin America remains marginal, but initial export figures are beginning to emerge. A strategic expansion, at a time when the brand was still ultra-dependent on the Chinese market. This pattern is reminiscent of BYD, which has succeeded in establishing itself in Europe and the rest of the world, albeit with more modest volumes.
Models driving growth
Another factor behind this growth is the brand’s extensive catalogue. The Mona M03, a saloon designed to be accessible, has helped to broaden the customer base and rapidly generate volume. Its flagship model, the P7, meanwhile, has
passed the milestone of selling the 10,000ᵉ unit of its new version. Finally, the brand is targeting the top end of the market with the cutting-edge technology provided by its G7 Ultra.
Technology at the heart of the strategy
As well as volumes, XPeng intends to distinguish itself through innovation. The manufacturer recently presented its proprietary « Turing AI » chip, designed to improve autonomous driving performance. This is a strategic advance that will enable it to reduce its dependence on external suppliers. At the same time, XPeng has entered into a partnership with Volkswagen to develop an ultra-fast recharging network of more than 20,000 charging points in China. These initiatives show that the brand is not just looking to sell more cars, but is also investing in infrastructure and on-board intelligence to establish itself as a key player in the mobility of the future.
A manufacturer on the move
The figures for September 2025 confirm that XPeng has reached a decisive stage. Its strategy of international expansion, broadening its range and increasing its industrial output mean that it is outperforming most of its Chinese competitors, with the exception of the now giant BYD.
The company thus confirms the new wave of Chinese manufacturers: capable of innovation, penetrating diverse international markets and combining volume and technology, all at affordable prices. Having long been seen as a challenger, XPeng is now becoming a key player in the global automotive transition.
