On November 13, 2025, Arrowpoint Investment Partners (Singapore) filed with the SEC to sell its entire stake of 500,000 XPeng shares, reflecting an $8.94 million change in value based on quarterly average prices. That position had represented approximately 8% of the fund’s assets under management in the prior quarter; post-sale, XPeng exposure stands at 0%. This move follows XPeng’s stock having rallied over 100% year to date by Q3, suggesting Arrowpoint opted to lock in gains ahead of intensifying competition and moderating global EV growth. Top holdings shifting into place include a 15.4% allocation to AEG, with other significant positions in SATS, VCSH, ALAB, and ATAT.

XPeng’s joint research with Peking University, titled “FastDriveVLA: Efficient End-to-End Driving via Plug-and-Play Reconstruction-based Token Pruning,” was accepted by AAAI 2026 out of 23,680 submissions (17.6% acceptance rate). The framework introduces an adversarial foreground–background reconstruction strategy that prunes visual tokens from 3,249 to 812, achieving a 7.5× reduction in onboard computational load on the nuScenes benchmark while maintaining high planning accuracy. This marks XPeng’s second recognition at a top-tier AI conference this year—after its CVPR WAD presentation—and underscores its end-to-end in-house capabilities in machine learning model design, distillation, and vehicle deployment as it pushes toward Level 4 autonomy.
