After XPeng officially announced that the first round of financing for its robotics business had exceeded $900 million, He Xiaopeng, chairman and CEO of XPeng, posted: Thank you to all investors, XPeng friends, and colleagues for your trust and support. In the near future, XPeng will work to bring the first advanced humanoid robot into the real world. It will be unlike any robot currently seen on the market: more human-like, safer, requiring no remote control, capable of natural interaction, equipped with its own memory, and able to create real value. It will not be a demonstration, but a truly mass-produced product brought into the real world.
It is reported that this round of financing set a new record for a single private equity financing round in China's embodied intelligence industry.
XPeng IRON plans to enter mass production by the end of 2026, beginning with commercial applications at XPeng stores and campuses, and will officially launch and begin deliveries in the Chinese and overseas markets in 2027.
