XPeng Inc. (NYSE:XPEV) tumbled in Tuesday’s premarket session after the Chinese electric vehicle maker disclosed Monday that it clocked a sharp deterioration in February delivery numbers.
Nasdaq futures are down 2.40% while S&P 500 futures have shed 1.86%.
The company handed over just 15,256 vehicles last month — a punishing 49.90% decline year-over-year and a 23.76% drop from January’s figures.
Despite the weak numbers, XPeng did notch one milestone in February: the launch of global deliveries for its new P7+ sedan.
