Chinese electric vehicle maker XPeng has officially opened its new global headquarters in Guangzhou, unveiling a large-scale complex designed to function as a self-contained city for its employees.
“Today marks the day when XPeng’s headquarters officially moves to its new site in Guangzhou,” CEO He Xiaopeng wrote on Monday in a Weibo post. The new campus, located in the Cencun area of Tianhe Smart City, spans more than 500,000 square meters, with a total floor area of about 364,500 square meters and an 80,000-square-meter park.

The headquarters integrates XPeng’s key operations, including offices, research and development, vehicle engineering, design review, and new model testing. It also features a takeoff and landing pad for its flying-car division and a flagship retail store. He described the new facility as “warm, with a 20,000-square-meter cafeteria offering more than 400 kinds of meals,” adding that it includes “a ‘Mom’s Kitchen,’ coffee shops, a supermarket, a hospital, a hair salon, laundry, gym, and sports facilities.”
Beyond its functional role, the new headquarters underscores XPeng’s ambition to create an employee-centered environment. “Entrepreneurship often begins with moving — and every relocation represents a symbolic leap forward,” He wrote, calling the move an important milestone in the company’s growth.
The project’s land acquisition cost was about 1.507 billion yuan ($207 million). In addition to its operational areas, the site includes cafés, a medical center, and recreational amenities, forming what the company describes as a “mini city” for staff.

The opening comes as XPeng accelerates its global expansion. In September, the automaker announced entry into five additional European markets — Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, and Croatia — as part of its broader strategy to strengthen its international presence. In Switzerland, XPeng is partnering with European mobility services provider Hedin Group to introduce the 2025 G6 and G9 sport utility vehicles, followed by the P7+ sedan in early 2026. The partnership plans to establish 8–10 retail outlets by the end of 2025, with another 10–20 expected in 2026.
XPeng also reported record vehicle deliveries in September, reflecting sustained momentum in China’s competitive new energy vehicle market. The company delivered 41,581 vehicles last month, up 94.74% year-on-year and 10.27% from August, marking its third consecutive month of record deliveries.
