XPeng shops its self-driving tech to automakers — Tesla found no takers
XPeng is trying to turn its self-driving and smart-cockpit systems into a licensing business, courting automakers, suppliers, and software firms well beyond its existing Volkswagen deal, according to a Reuters report.
AI Summary
XPeng is expanding its self‑driving and smart‑cockpit technology into a licensing model, seeking contracts with automakers, parts suppliers and software firms beyond its existing partnership with Volkswagen. The strategy mirrors Tesla’s long‑standing “Full Self‑Driving” licensing approach, but, according to Reuters, XPeng is encountering genuine interest from potential partners. This move signals the Chinese maker’s effort to monetize its autonomous‑driving software across the broader automotive supply chain.
