XPeng plans standalone MONA stores in some cities from 2027

XPeng president Wang Fengying said standalone MONA stores will open in some cities from 2027, while leaving open the possibility of MONA becoming an independent brand. XPeng has also consolidated its four product lines into G and D, with MONA retaining the dedicated D line, further distinguishing its product planning from that of the main brand.

What to know

  • 01

    Wang outlined plans for standalone MONA stores but only left open the possibility of future brand independence.

  • 02

    The former I and F product lines have been folded into G, while MONA continues to have D as its dedicated line.

Why it matters

The store plans and product-line changes distinguish MONA’s retail channels and product planning from XPeng’s main brand, but should not be read as a decision to establish an independent brand.
