XPeng delivered 27,415 vehicles in March 2026, an 80% month‑over‑month increase from February’s 15,000‑plus deliveries, bringing the company’s first‑quarter 2026 total to 62,682 units. The quarterly figure represents a 33.3% year‑over‑year decline from 94,008 units in Q1 2025, reflecting the impact of the Chinese New Year holiday, reduced incentives, and a broader industry slowdown in January and February.
XPeng’s March surge was driven by strong demand for its mid‑price Mona M03 and premium P7+ models, which together accounted for a large share of the month’s deliveries. However, the overall quarterly decline underscores persistent price competition in China and a slowdown in domestic demand, prompting management to issue a weaker‑than‑expected Q1 2026 guidance during its March 20 earnings call.
On March 25, XPeng entered the Mexican market, launching a three‑year Latin America strategy that will introduce pure‑electric and range‑extended models in 2027. The move is part of the company’s plan to double overseas sales in 2026 and raise international revenue to over 20% of total revenue, with four new models slated for global launch in 2026 and an expanded overseas store network.
During the earnings call, management highlighted the company’s first quarterly net profit, attributing it to higher‑margin model sales and technology partnerships. They also noted that the Q1 2026 guidance was weaker than expected, signaling near‑term challenges despite the profitability milestone. The company emphasized continued investment in its VLA 2.0 autonomous‑driving technology, which has passed physical touring tests.
Following the earnings announcement, XPeng’s stock fell 5‑6% in early trading, driven by the weaker guidance that outweighed the positive profitability news. Investors focused on the company’s near‑term outlook, which reflected concerns about domestic demand and the need to accelerate international expansion.
XPeng’s delivery performance and market expansion illustrate a dual strategy: recover domestic sales momentum while diversifying revenue streams through Latin America. The company’s ability to maintain profitability amid a declining domestic market and its commitment to expanding overseas sales suggest a long‑term focus on scaling its AI‑powered vehicle platform and capturing new growth opportunities.
