XPeng’s Strategic Shift to Non-LiDAR Technologies and Strong Sales Performance Justify Buy Rating

Analyst Rachel Miu from DBS maintained a Buy rating on XPeng, Inc. Class A (9868Research Report) and keeping the price target at HK$60.00.

Rachel Miu’s rating is based on XPeng’s strategic shift towards non-LiDAR technologies, which are expected to enhance their autonomous driving capabilities at a lower cost, positioning them favorably in the competitive landscape. This technological shift is exemplified by the introduction of the P7+, anticipated to be a significant advancement in their product lineup.
Additionally, XPeng’s impressive sales performance, highlighted by a 16% year-over-year increase in the third quarter of 2024, driven by the successful launch of the MONA M03 model, supports the Buy rating. With robust pre-sale orders during the National Day Golden Week and projected sales growth, XPeng’s market outlook appears promising, prompting an increase in target prices to HKD60/USD15.
