flying vehicle advancements, additionally, it revealed the next generation of its IRON humanoid robots during its AI Day held in Guangzhou, China. Xpeng introduced the eighth iteration of its robot initiative (and the third with a humanoid form), and plans to commence mass production of the newest models by late 2026.
What swiftly drew BGR’s focus was Xpeng’s daring shift from conventional humanoid robot designs.

Similar to how 1X showcased its intriguing Neo home robot, Xpeng’s robot permits users to modify its look by selecting its color, though Xpeng expands on this by providing varying body types (chubby, athletic, tall, or short), hairstyles, and, in the future, even outfits. Nevertheless, in contrast to other companies, Xpeng is not focusing on household tasks or industrial roles for its robots.
