XPeng IRON

XPeng Motors' humanoid robot, with a highly human-like appearance in its 2025 generation.

IRON is the humanoid robot from Chinese automaker XPeng, with the first generation shown at XPeng's 2024 AI Day and the next generation released in November 2025. The newer version stands about 1.78 meters tall, weighs about 70 kg, and has 82 degrees of freedom across the body, 22 of them in one hand; it has a human-like spine, bio-inspired muscles, and flexible skin, a curved-screen head, an all-solid-state battery, and three of XPeng's own Turing AI chips, with a combined 2,250 TOPS of compute, running the company's second-generation VLA, meaning vision-language-action, model. XPeng aims to begin mass production by the end of 2026, initially deploying units as greeters in its own stores, making it a representative example of automakers entering humanoid robotics.
