Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

The provided articles, primarily XPeng's 2024 Environmental, Social and Governance Report, do not contain any specific, concrete data points relevant to the 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity' ethical value

. The articles explicitly state that information regarding financial inclusion, pricing fairness, exploitative fees, lending initiatives, data accessibility, fair lending compliance, wealth building outcomes, profit reinvestment in community finance, financial literacy programs, debt burden ratios, geographic inclusion for financial services, or product simplicity for financial products is not available or applicable within the scope of the reports . Therefore, all KPIs for this value must be omitted due to a lack of evidence.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

XPeng Inc. demonstrates strong performance in worker safety, reporting a safety incident rate of 0.01 in 2024.

The company had no level 2 or above accidents or occupational disease cases from 2021 to 2023, and no serious injuries among contractor employees in 2024. All employees receive employer-funded commercial medical insurance annually, with additional commercial health insurance, maternal care benefits, and a compassion plan for major illnesses. XPeng has maintained a clean record with no incidents of child labor, forced labor, or coercion since its establishment, and no employee complaints related to discrimination, harassment, fraud, or human rights issues in 2023 and 2024. The average salary range for male and female employees was approximately equal in both 2023 and 2024. However, the company's voluntary employee turnover rate was 23.5% in 2024. Employee engagement, as indicated by an overall employee rating of 3.2 out of 5 stars (64/100), suggests room for improvement.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

XPeng ensures ethical sourcing through robust contractual agreements, with 100% of its suppliers having signed an Integrity Commitment Letter that includes integrity-related clauses in their contracts, as reported in both 2022

and 2024. The company conducts frequent oversight of its supply chain, with suppliers being audited and evaluated monthly across business, quality, and delivery dimensions. XPeng has maintained a record of zero incidents of child labor, forced, or compulsory labor since its inception, as stated in its 2021 and 2022 ESG reports. While concerns regarding connections to labor transfer programs in Xinjiang and sourcing from military-linked companies have been raised, these are not reported as substantiated forced or child labor findings within XPeng's direct supply chain.

Honest & Fair Business

No specific, concrete data points were found in the provided articles for XPeng Inc. (XPEV.US) that directly map to the quantitative thresholds or specific criteria of the 'Honest & Fair Business' KPIs. Information regarding regulatory fines, transparency index scores, whistleblower policies, financial restatements, audit coverage, complaint resolution times, board conflict-free percentages, anti-corruption policy details, or third-party verification was either not present for XPeng Inc. or was too general to meet the rubric's specific requirements. For the ESG controversy index, conflicting information (a stated 'None' controversy level from Sustainalytics

versus an explicit corruption probe involving a VP reported on the same date ) prevented a reliable score assignment, as the specific event contradicts the general level and no severity-weighted score was provided.

No War, No Weapons

XPeng develops advanced autonomous and flying vehicle technologies.

Its AeroHT subsidiary's flying car factory initiative has received military backing from the PLA Southern Theater Command, indicating a majority of R&D on dual-use systems. The company's supply chain includes a supplier, Sichuan Jingweida, which employed over 300 Uyghur workers transferred under state-organized programs in Xinjiang, raising human rights concerns and indicating that its humanitarian procurement policy is rarely enforced. This also suggests major gaps in alignment with UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. XPeng sources critical LiDAR technology from Livox, a unit of the blacklisted Chinese military drone company DJI , and uses batteries from CALB, a company founded by the China Airborne Missile Academy and known to supply military-linked automakers. There is no evidence of screening for civilian-risk mitigation for its dual-use items, nor an annual review process for these partners with conflict-related risks. The company has indirect ties to military-linked subcontractors, and cannot demonstrate zero exposure to controversial weapons.

Respect for Cultures & Communities

While general volunteer hours are mentioned, they do not provide specific information relevant to the defined KPIs for this ethical value.
