8Consecutive observation years
The six companies do not share one uniform disclosure basis: Leapmotor and XPENG report global overseas volume; NIO supports only a MarkLines coverage floor; Li Auto, AITO and Xiaomi are observed mainly through Russian registrations. Unlike scopes are never added, and blanks are never turned into zero.

Breakout, pullback, and market testing.
The readout calculates changes only within a consistent basis; it does not force year-over-year comparisons when a series switches from regional floors to global exports.
Leapmotor reaches scaled exports
Official exports rose from 13,726 in 2024 to 67,052 in 2025, up 388.5% and the largest 2025 absolute volume among the six.
XPENG establishes a global series
Official overseas deliveries reached 45,008 in 2025; the disclosed growth rate implies approximately 22,963 in 2024.
Li Auto’s Russia registrations retreat
Russia registrations fell from 23,219 in 2024 to 13,105 in 2025; official expansion began only in December 2025, with no disclosed volume split.
Overseas presence is not official exports
NIO’s covered-market series weakened after a 2023 peak; AITO Russia registrations were flat in 2025; Xiaomi Russia registrations nearly quadrupled, but remained entirely unofficial-channel volume.

04 · Method & sources
Before completeness, protect comparability.
Updated 26 August 2026. Company and exchange filings take priority; gaps use the user-provided MarkLines workbook and national registration statistics with explicit coverage boundaries.
No cross-basis totals
Global exports, single-country registrations and covered-market floors cannot be added, so the page does not publish a six-company total.
Zero, blank and floor are distinct
Zero means no observed volume in the covered scope; blank means the brand or deliveries were not active; a lower bound means true global volume is at least that value.
Parallel imports stay visible
Li Auto, AITO and Xiaomi registrations in Russia reflect real customer uptake, but are not equivalent to official manufacturer overseas deliveries.
