Tesla Rival XPeng To Hire Over 6,000 Workers In 2025 Expecting Increased Competition: Report
Tesla Rival XPeng To Hire Over 6,000 Workers In 2025 Expecting Increased Competition: Report
XPeng, however, is not the sole Chinese EV maker on a hiring spree. In November, Chinese EV maker and Tesla Inc. rival XPeng (NYSE:XPEV) will reportedly hire over 6,000 workers in the coming year.
据报道，中国电动汽车制造商和特斯拉公司的竞争对手小鹏（纽约证券交易所代码：XPEV）将在来年雇用6,000多名员工。
What Happened: XPeng will hire more than 6,000 workers in 2025 in light of the increased competition expected next year, Reuters reported, citing an internal letter dated Tuesday from company funder and CEO He Xiaopeng.
发生了什么：路透社援引公司出资人兼首席执行官何小鹏周二的一封内部信函报道，鉴于预计明年竞争将加剧，小鹏将在2025年雇用6,000多名员工。
Xiaopeng is now expecting a price war to begin in January. The company is also looking to expand its global footprint to over 60 markets in 2025, the report added.
小鹏现在预计价格战将在一月份开始。报告补充说，该公司还计划在2025年将其全球足迹扩展到60多个市场。
XPeng, however, is not the sole Chinese EV maker on a hiring spree. In November, BYD Co Ltd. Executive Vice President He Zhiqi said on Weibo that the company hired over 200,000 people from August to October for car and components manufacturing. BYD is the best-selling EV maker in China and makes both plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery-electric vehicles.
但是，小鹏并不是唯一一家疯狂招聘的中国电动汽车制造商。11月，比亚迪有限公司执行副总裁何志奇在微博上表示，该公司从8月到10月雇用了超过20万名员工从事汽车和零部件制造。比亚迪是中国最畅销的电动汽车制造商，同时生产插电式混合动力汽车和电池电动汽车。
Why It Matters: Last month, XPeng witnessed its deliveries rise to 30,895 vehicles, marking an increase of 54% year-over-year and 29% from October.
为何重要：上个月，小鹏汽车的交付量增至30,895辆，同比增长54％，比10月份增长29％。
The Guangzhou-based EV startup said that the company's deliveries of the XPeng Mona M03 hatchback coupe alone exceeded 10,000 units for the third consecutive month since launch. Deliveries of the XPeng P7+ sedan, which the company launched last month, also exceeded 7,000 units.
这家总部位于广州的电动汽车初创公司表示，该公司仅小鹏Mona M03掀背轿跑车的交付量就连续第三个月超过1万辆。该公司上个月推出的小鹏P7+轿车的交付量也超过了7,000辆。
XPeng President Brian Gu said in an interview with Reuters last month that it is expected to break even sometime later in 2025. In the quarter that ended in September, Xpeng recorded a revenue of $1.25 billion from vehicle sales and a net loss of $0.26 billion.
小鹏汽车总裁顾布莱恩上个月在接受路透社采访时表示，预计将在2025年晚些时候实现收支平衡。在截至9月的季度中，小鹏汽车销售收入为12.5亿美元，净亏损为2.6亿美元。
