Wall Street turns bullish on XPeng forecasting XPEV to rise 460% in the next 12 months

XPeng (NASDAQ: XPEV) seems to have cracked the problem of flying cars, which has, in turn, sparked the interest of investors on Wall Street and across the globe. 

Namely, the firm’s X2 completed its first global public flight on October 10 in Dubai, United Emirates. The flying car was built by XPeng Aeroht, the largest flying car company in Asia and an affiliate of XPeng. 

The flight required a special permit from the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA), along with specific operations and risk assessments from the authorities, before being given the green light.

Commenting on this achievement, Brian Gu, Vice Chairman and President of XPeng, stated: 

“XPENG X2’s public display in Dubai represents a significant milestone for XPENG AEROHT and the international achievement of flying cars. Dubai is a world-renowned ‘City of Innovation’, which is the reason we decided to hold the X2 first public flight event here. Today’s flight is a major step in XPENG’s exploration of future mobility.”

Interest in electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers will likely remain high, despite the flying car, which can only further add to EV investors’ enthusiasm. 

While the shares lost over 84% year-to-date (YTD), the potential seems to be there even among the analysts who see a whopping 400%+ recovery in the share price over the next 12 months.
