Xpeng has announced the global rollout of its latest over-the-air (OTA) software update, XOS 5.4 that will provide customers in its served regions with new intelligent driving, safety, and personalization features.
A new feature delivered as part of XOS 5.4 is the AI Guard system, which introduces a suite of advanced safety tools to Xpeng’s vehicle line-up. Sentry Mode, for instance, monitors and records suspicious activity around the vehicle when unoccupied, such as unexpected motion or prolonged loitering near the car. Upon detecting such an event, notifications are sent directly to the user’s smartphone through the Xpeng app, ensuring they are always informed of potential risks. The Driving Recorder enhances safety during travel by capturing critical events in real-time and securely storing key footage that can easily be accessed later on. Xpeng highlighted that, due to regulatory restrictions, this feature is temporarily unavailable in some regions.
In addition to these new features, the update also offers a range of updates and upgrades to existing features. Through XOS 5.4, for example, Xpeng’s on-board AI assistant (which allows for several vehicle functions to be controlled through voice commands) can now support voice control in multiple languages, including English, French, German, Cantonese, and Thai.
Smart driving capabilities also include Smart Speed Limit Recognition, which identifies road signs like “No Entry” and off-ramp signage to promote safer, more informed driving experiences. The update also includes the enhanced Personalized Operating System 2.0, featuring improvements such as multitasking split-screen functionality and greater flexibility in customizing infotainment layouts with the XDock system. For added convenience, the new X-Combo feature allows users to automate recurring in-car tasks, such as activating child locks when shifting into drive, simplifying daily routines. XOS 5.4 additionally offers refined charging visuals with an animation inspired by the northern lights that indicates charging speeds. Meanwhile, updates to the driving range display, aligned with NEDC standards, cater to the needs of XPENG’s global users, ensuring accurate range information.
The launch of XOS 5.4 ultimately reaffirms Xpeng’s commitment to advancing its AI-defined mobility capabilities through innovation and privacy-conscious development. By continually enhancing safety, usability, and personalization, the OEM aims to offer connected, intelligent driving experiences to users around the world.
