XPENG Iron is a humanoid robot standing 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing 154 pounds, equipped with 60 joints and 200 degrees of freedom. Its movement is powered by reinforcement learning and advanced AI models, allowing it to walk steadily, manipulate objects precisely, and perform complex physical tasks with more natural motion than traditional industrial robots. Its current application focuses on assembling electric vehicles at XPENG’s factories, but its capabilities are built for broader roles beyond manufacturing.

A standout feature of Iron is its proprietary Turing AI chip, capable of processing 3,000 trillion operations per second and running AI models with 30 billion parameters. This processing power supports a sophisticated 720-degree vision system (360 degrees horizontal and vertical) adapted from XPENG’s self-driving technologies, providing comprehensive environmental awareness. Its conversational abilities are similarly adapted from the company’s intelligent cockpit systems, enabling logical and natural human-machine interactions.

Iron is designed not just for factory use but also for administrative, customer service, and household tasks in the future. Although currently priced around $150,000 and targeting business applications, XPENG envisions more accessible versions for consumers. With custom-designed robotic hands offering fine motor control and integration into XPENG’s broader AI ecosystem, Iron represents an effort to merge industrial robotics with everyday service capabilities.
