Chinese electric vehicle maker Xpeng Inc on Thursday extended its self-driving capability to Beijing as part of an expanded mainland-wide rollout of City NGP (Navigation Guided Pilot).
City NGP is now available in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing, with plans to expand it to dozens of cities later this year, Xpeng said in a statement.
Xpeng said the latest launch made China’s first Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) available in Beijing’s urban areas and is applicable on major bypasses and expressways.
City NGP is accessible on some Xpeng models including the G9 Max, P7i Max and the P5 P version, he added.
Xpeng said in March it was updating its advanced driver assistance software and plans to make all its features available to drivers across China by 2024 as it seeks to gain an edge over US rival Tesla.
