Chinese electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Xpeng is facing a major setback as it prepares to recall over 33,473 units of its X9 model in China. According to a report by Reuters, the recall is due to a software issue that may cause the vehicle's electronic stability control system to malfunction, potentially leading to a loss of vehicle control. The move is a significant blow to Xpeng, which has been struggling to maintain market share in China's highly competitive EV market. The recall is also a major test for the company's ability to address safety concerns and ensure the reliability of its vehicles.
