  • The first IRON completed automated final assembly and walked off the commissioned Guangzhou line.
  • XPeng says more than 80% of core manufacturing processes on the dedicated line are automated.
  • The company describes the milestone as the transition from R&D trial builds to line manufacturing, with scaled production still the next step.

XPeng is an EV manufacturer. In late 2025 it unveiled IRON, a humanoid developed using its existing autonomy stack, battery expertise, and in-house manufacturing capability.
