The expedition will showcase the capability of Navigation Guided Pilot (or “NGP”), full-stack in-house developed autonomous driving solution by XPeng, in complex driving scenarios on China’s highways.

NGP highway solution provides navigation assisted autonomous driving from point A to B, based on the navigation route set by the driver, and is available on highways covered by high-precision maps in China.
