“Given the premium and large format positioning, the number may be limited in terms of contribution. But again, it’s still going to be targeting a brand-new segment that we did not cover before,” Gu was quoted as saying.
XPeng did not immediately respond to Benzinga’s emailed request for comment.
XPeng Earnings: XPeng’s Hong Kong shares tumbled over 12% on Wednesday after the company posted a quarterly net loss that more than doubled.
