XPENG’s AI Vision for the Next Decade

In the new decade, XPENG positions AI as the “core engine” of future mobility, focusing on electrification and embodied AI to explore diverse transportation forms. The company has established a full-stack in-house R&D system encompassing:

  • Cloud-based large models
  • Vehicle-based large models
  • AI chips tailored for large model development
  • Foundational architecture for large model deployment

XPENG is China’s first automaker to mass-produce vehicles with end-to-end large AI models. Its intelligent driving system powered by these models is expanding globally, with initial tests already underway in Hong Kong.

The self-developed Turing AI Chip features a 40-core processor capable of running 30-billion-parameter models locally, delivering three times the computing power of existing chips. This breakthrough will be applied across its AI-powered vehicles, flying cars, and robotics, enabling cross-domain technological integration. The Turing AI chip is set for mass production in the Chinese mainland in the second quarter of 2025.

XPENG also showcased the XPENG AEROHT Land Aircraft Carrier, the world’s first modular flying car, which is set for mass production in 2026. With already over 4,000 pre-orders, this pioneering vehicle overcomes the challenges of take-off and landing, paving the way for accessible and democratized air mobility.

Additionally, XPENG unveiled its humanoid robot “IRON” powered by the Turing AI chip, with 60 joints, 200 degrees of freedom, and 3,000 TOPS of processing power. It also features a 720° AI vision system that can also be found in XPENG’s autonomous driving technology. Iron is designed to perform complex tasks in smart factories and retail environments, bridging the gap between AI concepts and real-world applications.

Built on XPENG’s next-generation 800V high-voltage architecture, the X9 features ultra-fast charging capabilities, adding a range of 405 km in just 10 minutes. Powered by the 5C Superfast Charging AI battery, 1 km range can be added on a one-second charge, reaching 80% in just 12 minutes — faster than charging a smartphone. Additionally, it achieves an industry-leading efficiency of just 16.2 kWh per 100 km, the lowest in its class.

The X9 also introduces XPENG’s most advanced cabin experience to date, combining comfort with intelligence. This includes zero-gravity seats, an AI chassis with real-time adaptive suspension and a one-click folding third-row to ensure comfort in every seat. The 21.4-inch rear entertainment screen, wireless fast charging, and personalized cabin lighting makes the X9 an ideal choice for families.

On safety, the X9 stands out as the only MPV to receive top scores in all three major active safety crash tests, with 14 advanced safety features, including automatic emergency braking. The battery pack also incorporates enhanced ‘bulletproof’ protection that can withstand the equivalent impact force of 10 consecutive bullets. These features significantly enhance the X9’s safety profile, even in the most extreme of conditions.

In Europe, X9 will initially launch in select regions in the second half of this year, with plans for further expansion into additional countries.

Accelerating Global Expansion and Industry Leadership

XPENG’s technological advancements are matched by its rapid global expansion. As of the end of 2024, XPENG operates in over 30 countries and regions, becoming the top seller of premium EVs priced over €40,000 in Europe. It also ranked first in export volume among Chinese emerging EV brands, and was the leader in mid-to-high-end electric vehicle exports from China. In the first quarter of 2025, XPENG became the top-selling emerging Chinese EV brand within China.

To support its expanding international user base, XPENG has invested heavily in global charging infrastructure. XPENG has built 2,110 self-operated ultra-fast charging stations and partnered with international giants like Volkswagen and bp pulse. Currently, the charging network covers Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and 27 European countries, with a total of 2.07 million charging piles in its network across 31 markets worldwide.

For overseas markets, XPENG believes true globalization is not simply about product replication but systematic innovation based on local needs. With the current global charging infrastructure still underdeveloped, XPENG requires a more convenient and universal energy solution.

XPENG’s Kunpeng Super Electric System will increase the pure electric range to 430 km and combined range to 1,400 km. It is set for mass production in the Chinese mainland by the fourth quarter of 2025, delivering an unprecedented travel experience for global users.

Through bold technological development and collaborative advocacy, XPENG remains committed to its mission of making intelligent mobility accessible, safe, and transformative for all.

Mr He Xiaopeng, Chairman and CEO of XPENG said, “No one can stop the tide of progress. AI is evolving rapidly, transforming industries and reshaping the world around us. At XPENG, AI is right at the core of our DNA. The AI Tech Tree upgrade to our strategy doubles down our strengths in AI, energy solutions and embodied intelligence.

HOUSTON, April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LyondellBasell (NYSE: LYB), a global leader in the chemical industry, today released its 2024 Sustainability Report, demonstrating significant progress in circular and low-carbon solutions, climate action and operational excellence.

2024 sustainability highlights:

  • Value Enhancement Program (VEP) success: The company’s employee-driven VEP initiative unlocked a cumulative $800 million in recurring annual EBITDA and generated estimated annual carbon emissions reductions of 310,000 metric tons.

  • MoReTec-1 construction underway: To meet the rising demand for circular polymers, the company broke ground on its first commercial-scale chemical recycling plant in Wesseling, Germany, to convert hard-to-recycle plastic waste into new raw materials, including for contact-sensitive packaging.
  • Reducing carbon emissions: In Q1 2025, LYB safely completed the shutdown of refining operations at its Houston refinery. This will reduce annual Scope 3 emissions by approximately 40 million metric tons.
  • Renewable energy expansion: New power purchase agreements (PPAs) secured in 2024 will enable LYB to meet its target of sourcing at least 50% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030.
  • Safety excellence: Out of over 90+ LYB manufacturing sites, 70 achieved GoalZERO, 72 were injury-free and the company achieved its second lowest-ever total recordable incident rate (0.127).
  • Strategic growth & investments: The company acquired APK AG, adding Newcycling technology to its portfolio for solution-based recycling of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) waste.
  • Sustainability recognition: Ranked first among plastics producers in BloombergNEF’s 2024 circular economy company rankings and retained its AA ESG rating from MSCI.

“As we look to the future, we remain steadfast in our commitment to sustainability and innovation. Our investments in circular and low-carbon solutions, along with our dedication to safety and operational excellence, will drive our progress toward achieving our 2030 and 2050 goals. We are transforming our vision into lasting value, ensuring that we create meaningful impact for our customers, shareholders and society.” – Peter Vanacker, CEO, LyondellBasell

‫حسن إسميك يفتح باب الفرص الاستثمارية في نادي ميونخ 1860 العريق

حسن إسميك مؤسس ورئيس مجلس إدارة
ميونخ 1860

بوظبي، الإمارات العربية المتحدة, April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — أعلن رجل الأعمال والملياردير حسن عبد الله إسميك، رئيس مجلس إدارة HAMIC Group، عن دراسته لعروض استثمارية متعددة للاستحواذ على حصته في نادي TSV ميونخ 1860 الألماني، أحد أعرق الأندية الرياضية في أوروبا، وذلك ضمن خطة استراتيجية تهدف إلى فتح آفاق جديدة للنادي وتعزيز مكانته في المشهد الرياضي العالمي.

ويتمتع نادي ميونخ 1860 بإرث رياضي وثقافي يمتد لأكثر من 165 عامًا، ويُعد من الأسماء البارزة في تاريخ الكرة الألمانية، حيث تُوج بلقب البوندسليغا عام 1966، ويحظى بقاعدة جماهيرية واسعة في قلب مدينة ميونخ. ويُعتبر اللون الأزرق للنادي رمزًا أصيلًا لهوية المدينة وتاريخها الرياضي.

وأكد إسميك خلال مقابلة حصرية مع قناة ARD الألمانية
:تلقينا عروضًا جدية ومهمة من عدد من المستثمرين المهتمين بمستقبل النادي، ونعمل حاليًا على دراسة الخيارات الأنسب لتأمين انتقال سلس ومستدام يُعزز من قوة النادي ويفتح أمامه آفاق النمو.”

وأشار إلى أن نادي ميونخ 1860 يمتلك مقومات استثنائية تؤهله ليكون منصة رياضية استثمارية واعدة، لاسيما مع توفر البنية التحتية والإمكانات التي تمهد لتطويره إلى نادٍ يتجاوز في قيمته السوقية مليار يورو، مع ضخ استثمارات استراتيجية تُقدّر بـ 300 مليون يورو في المرحلة المقبلة.

ويأتي هذا التحول كخطوة مدروسة بعد أكثر من عقد من الشراكة الناجحة التي ساهم خلالها إسميك في الحفاظ على استقرار النادي، حيث يُنسب له دور رئيسي في دعم النادي ماليًا وتعزيز حضوره على الساحة الرياضية.

واختتم إسميك تصريحه برسالة ملهمة قال فيها
:نعلم أن الأسود تحصل على قسط كبير من الراحة، ولكن حان وقت إيقاظها.”
