HONG KONG (Reuters) - Chinese electric vehicle maker Xpeng said on Wednesday that it had done a "thorough analysis" of its supply chain to ensure it would not be impacted by the current turmoil caused by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs and tensions with China.

Xpeng's President Brian Gu told reporters in Hong Kong that their current sales were not impacted, but that the company was closely monitoring the situation as it was difficult to escape economic volatility.
