Chinese electric vehicle upstart Xpeng said on Thursday that it is assessing the feasibility of establishing manufacturing capabilities in Europe after the European Commission moved to impose preliminary tariffs on Chinese-made EVs.

"All current consumers awaiting delivery and future customers placing orders before new tariffs take effect will be protected from any price increases," the company said.

"We are committed to proactively maintaining market competitiveness while minimising any potential impact on our current and future customers," it added.
