Xpeng opens first Scottish dealership as rollout accelerates

Xpeng has opened its first Scottish dealership in East Kilbride in partnership with Park’s Motor Group, following launches in Nottingham and Southampton.

Scottish customers can now get a first-hand look at Xpeng’s next-generation G6 – a premium all-electric SUV that is set to begin its first customer deliveries in the coming weeks.

The East Kilbride opening forms part of Xpeng’s broader UK rollout, with plans to establish between 20 and 25 dealerships by the end of 2025. These will be supported by strategically located aftersales hubs designed to deliver a comprehensive and premium customer experience.

Chris Graham, network development manager at Xpeng UK, who attended the launch, confirmed that the brand continues to see strong interest from potential franchise partners. “We’ve received a substantial amount of interest from potential partners across the UK. While we’re expanding throughout the year, we’re also taking the time to build our network organically and select the right partners to represent Xpeng,” he said.

“However, we are taking our time to ensure we grow our network organically and choose the best partners to be selling XPENG vehicles. A few of the areas that I have not yet committed to are Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Carlisle, Newcastle and Liverpool, so we still have time to consider any interested parties.”
