Xiaopeng Motors Chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng stated in a conference call that the new generation of IRON robots will begin mass production by the end of 2026. Xiaopeng IRON is equipped with three Turing AI chips, and its computing power on the edge far exceeds other robots in the industry. "Our VLA 2.0 technology stack has been successfully tested on robots, and combined with Xiaopeng's new fourth-generation motion control system, we will see extremely excellent motion and control effects in the second half of this year. I am confident that IRON's intelligence will give us a leading edge in the industry." The monthly production target for IRON by the end of this year is over a thousand units. "With IRON's high level of intelligence and our advantages in mass production scale and supply chain, I believe Xiaopeng will become one of the largest and most valuable humanoid robot companies in the world."
