Amendment No. 1 to Draft Registration Statement on Form F-1 Submitted July, 2020 CIK No. 0001810997 Dear Mr. Gu: We have reviewed your amended draft registration statement and have the following comments. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with information so we may better understand your disclosure. Please respond to this letter by providing the requested information and either submitting an amended draft registration statement or publicly filing your registration statement on EDGAR. If you do not believe our comments apply to your facts and circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your response. After reviewing the information you provide in response to these comments and your amended draft registration statement or filed registration statement, we may have additional comments. Amendment No. 1 to Draft Registration Statement on Form F-1 Risk Factors, page 15 1. Notwithstanding your response to prior comment 3 that you do not intend to utilize exemptions for controlled companies, it continues to appear that those exemptions will be available to you at any time should you decide to invoke them. As such, it also continues to appear that this availability creates an additional risk to investors, separate from the risk related to following home country governance practices. Therefore, please revise to describe the exemptions available to controlled companies and the related risks to investors. Hongdi Brian Gu XPENG INC.
