XPENG deploys an OTA update that optimizes driving aids, infotainment, and smartphone connectivity in Europe.
XPENG, a Chinese manufacturer specializing in intelligent electric vehicles and physical AI, begins the rollout of the XOS 5.8.7 software update in Europe for the G6 and G9 models. This new OTA (Over-The-Air) version focuses on three priority areas: optimizing driving aids, enhancing infotainment responsiveness, and improving smartphone connectivity.
The main updates involve the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane Centering Control (LCC). The update significantly reduces unnecessary decelerations, enhances lane stability, and minimizes micro-steering corrections on straight roads. The result is a more intuitive, natural, and reassuring assistance for daily driving. Lane departure alerts are also more accurate.
Enhanced smart cockpit and connectivity
The infotainment interface gains in responsiveness. The Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections become more stable. The installation of the OTA update via Wi-Fi is faster and more reliable.
European users also benefit from targeted improvements: smooth playback on Disney+, optimized audio quality for Karafun karaoke (without microphone), and support for 10 languages in the onboard system (French, German, English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Dutch). Compatibility and charging on Tesla Superchargers V3 and V4 are also enhanced.
A “Software-Defined Vehicle” Philosophy
Designed to continuously evolve, XPENG vehicles receive regular OTA updates based on customer feedback. Approximately 200 European owners, including 29 French, participated in the testing phases of XOS 5.8.7.
Meanwhile, XPENG is preparing its next AI architecture with the Vision-Language-Action system (VLA 2.0) and more powerful Turing chips, intended for future models.
