I simply reported earlier immediately on XPENG’s exploding sales in February. It had 570% gross sales progress in February 2025 in comparison with February 2024. Now it’s getting into one other huge market, Indonesia. Earlier immediately, XPENG launched within the nation of 281 million.

XPENG will even produce the X9 and G6 in Indonesia within the second half of 2025. XPENG has partnered with Erajaya Lively Life-style (ERAL) to market and promote autos in Indonesia.

Now, we’ve reported on XPENG’s entry into a number of markets around the globe. Nevertheless, it might have hit you already that that doesn’t usually include an announcement about native automobile manufacturing. Usually talking, XPENG is manufacturing its autos in China and transport them to those different markets. Nevertheless, the corporate signifies which may be about to alter — not less than, in main markets.

“This strategy demonstrates a shift towards a more integrated, localized approach. By localizing production and integrating supply chains, XPENG aims to create a community of shared interests in global markets through technology, production capacity, and ecosystem partnerships,” the corporate writes. “This will enable the company to provide more efficient, customized solutions to Indonesian consumers as well as other key markets.”

Indonesia is the biggest auto market in Southeast Asia. It is usually the place XPENG desires to focus its subsequent part of progress. “As Southeast Asia’s largest new car market at the million-unit level and a high-potential market, XPENG aims to build Indonesia and other markets in the APAC region into its next growth engine, propelling its global success.”

Curiously, on this case, XPENG didn’t associate up along with your traditional auto seller. As a substitute, it partnered with a tech retailer. Which is sensible on this new EV world, proper? “As a leading player in Indonesia’s high-end technology and consumer electronics sector, Erajaya represents top global brands, including DJI drones and premium lifestyle products,” XPENG writes. “Under Erajaya’s leadership, DJI has already built a strong technological reputation and market presence in Indonesia. Building on this advantage, XPENG and Erajaya will work together to drive market education for advanced smart EVs and enhance the user experience.”

“Together, we are introducing a new era of smart, sustainable mobility in Indonesia, with an emphasis on customer experience and service excellence,” Djohan Sutanto, CEO of Erajaya Lively Life-style, mentioned.

“XPENG seeks partners who share the same vision and dreams. Erajaya Active Lifestyle is such a ‘new-force’ in Indonesia and a perfect fit for XPENG locally,” added Brian Gu, Vice Chairman and President of XPENG.

All of it sounds very thrilling. It’s onerous to not get caught up within the revolutionary and futuristic language, particularly mixed with some good previous altruistic sustainability. And why would you need to keep away from getting caught up in it. That’s half the enjoyable, not less than!

“With this launch, XPENG and ERAL are set to redefine Indonesia’s EV landscape, delivering a smarter, more connected, and more sustainable mobility experience for consumers,” the sensible EV producer writes. “XPENG is not only democratizing technology globally but also democratizing user experiences worldwide.” Sounds good to me. I think about it’ll sound excellent to many Indonesians as effectively.
