รุ่นแรกของ Xpeng และ Volkswagen: แพลตฟอร์มยานพาหนะที่สมบูรณ์ที่ใช้ G9 พร้อมห้องโดยสารอัจฉริยะและคุณสมบัติการขับขี่อัจฉริยะ

เมื่อเดือนกรกฎาคม 26, โฟล์ค สวา เก้น และ มอเตอร์ Xpeng announced a technical cooperation framework agreement, with Volkswagen investing $700 million in Xpeng Motors. The collaboration will leverage Xpeng Motors’ vehicle platform, smart cockpit, and intelligent driving system, while Volkswagen will provide its world-leading engineering and supply chain capabilities. The negotiations between the two companies began in the fourth quarter of last year, and this partnership is seen as a win-win situation. Volkswagen’s investment will complement its smart cockpit and high-end smart driving capabilities, boosting its electric vehicle sales in China. ในทางตรงกันข้าม, มอเตอร์ Xpeng, known for its mid-to-high-end assisted driving capabilities, will benefit from Volkswagen’s expertise to further advance its autonomous driving technology.

Xpeng Motors has been making significant strides in autonomous driving with its NGP (นักบินนําทาง) ระบบ, which provides functions like automatic avoidance of construction scenes, intelligent response to side car congestion, และอื่น ๆ. Its urban NGP has achieved an efficiency close to 90% of human drivers and will be expanded to nearly 50 cities in the second half of the year. นอกจากนี้, the new XNGP based on the XNET deep learning algorithm will achieve extensive coverage of urban roads across the country, surpassing Tesla’s performance in the US.

อนึ่ง, Xpeng Motors has introduced the 800V silicon carbide electrical architecture, allowing for rapid battery charging and an extended driving range. The company’s latest Swing architecture brings innovative features like front and rear integrated aluminum die-casting body, เทคโนโลยีการรวมตัวแบตเตอรี่ CIB, and a communication architecture with Gigabit Ethernet backbone. This architecture also benefits from the autonomous driving intelligent computing center “Fuyao,” which significantly boosts the training speed of the core model for Xpeng’s autonomous driving.

The collaboration between Xpeng Motors and Volkswagen addresses the shortcomings of both companies, making it a promising venture in the rapidly evolving electric vehicle market.
