Huangpu's industrial leaders have teamed up with global titans, marking a significant milestone in collaborative innovation.
Xpeng Motors, one of Huangpu's flagship enterprises, recently sealed a strategic pact with Volkswagen Group (China), with the latter investing €2.5 billion, or 19.44 billion yuan. This alliance aims to integrate Xpeng's cutting-edge electronic architecture into Volkswagen's CMP platform for electric vehicle production in China from 2026.
Xpeng Motors, a frontrunner in smart electric vehicles, is strategically positioned with two major projects in Huangpu, including Xpeng Motors Smart Manufacturing Innovation Center in Guangzhou Knowledge City focusing on research and development, and Xpeng Motors Guangzhou Smart Manufacturing Base, an intelligent plant for connected vehicles already operational since February 2023.
