Chinese electric vehicle giant Xpeng has announced a significant recall affecting 33,473 of its X9 models. This recall is due to safety concerns highlighted by China's market regulator.

Vehicles manufactured between August 8, 2023, and August 11, 2025, are impacted by this decision. The issue stems from a potential reduction in airtightness within the front air springs.
