Xpeng Inc. is beginning the rollout of its XNGP Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) to eligible customers in China. XPENG G9 Max and P7i Max customers in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Shanghai will receive XNGP via Over-the-Air (OTA) update.

In this first phase, its City NGP (Navigation Guided Pilot) functions, already available in Guangzhou, will be expanded to eligible customers in Shenzhen and Shanghai.

The OTA update, delivered through XPENG’s latest operating system Xmart OS 4.2.0, brings 27 new functions, 52 optimisations and over 40 other improvements, covering smart driving, smart voice, cockpit experience, among others.

With this update, XPENG brings to customers its enhanced SR (Simulated Reality) 2.0 empowered by XNET perception technology which delivers a real time Bird’s Eye View (BEV) and 360° panoramic environmental perception of surrounding road conditions.

The second phase of XNGP’s rollout is planned for 2H 2023.

In the next rollout, full lane changing, overtaking and navigation through crossroads under complex city driving scenarios will be expanded to major Chinese cities and no longer require high definition map.

We are truly proud to be trailblazing this leap forward that will significantly enrich our customers’ driving experience using the latest technology.”
