Xpeng is transitioning from prototypes to physical infrastructure, announcing a 110,000-square-meter production base in Guangzhou to industrialize its "Iron" humanoid platform.
In an internal letter and a festive social media demonstration, He Xiaopeng reaffirms a goal for IRON to become the world’s first mass-produced high-level humanoid.
A new technical deep-dive from XPENG Robotics reveals the 'body logic' behind the IRON humanoid, including a rebuilt reinforcement learning stack and proprietary algorithms used to simulate complex 3D-printed lattice muscles.
Xpeng’s "Iron" humanoid robot took to a public stage in Shenzhen for a surprise interaction event, showcasing its "human-like" gait and "bionic" design to weekend shoppers.
CEO He Xiaopeng confirms the first "automotive-grade" engineering trial unit of the IRON robot has rolled off the line, signaling a major push toward mass production later this year.
